This is the math they do in kindergarten, I think it is called Mountain Math? It is based on manipulatives. In kindergarten they have hands (or in this case mittens) and show if you have 2 in one hand and 3 in the other hand, you get 5. Therefore, 2+3=5. It is so they can see it and understand it and not just have to memorize facts.
