Highlights • A neural basis for direct perception of number in children (3–10 y) was tested.• Novel SSVEP method assessed numerical and non-numerical magnitude processing.• SSVEPs were modulated exclusively by numerosity and not by non-numerical cues.• Selective SSVEP sensitivity to numerosity increased as a function of age.• Findings illustrate the emergence of a neural mechanism for the visual number sense.
