Here’s your product description as a single paragraph in under 2000 characters: Help young students master early math skills with these stackable cubes. Perfect for hands-on learning, these versatile manipulatives make abstract math concepts tangible and engaging for children ages 5 and up. Each set includes 100 colorful plastic cubes (3/4″ each) that link together on all sides, giving children endless building possibilities. The geometric shape cutouts on each cube add an extra dimension to learning, allowing for more complex patterning activities and shape recognition. These cubes are ideal for teaching fundamental math concepts including counting and number recognition, addition and subtraction, place value and grouping, measurement and comparison, and patterns and sequencing. Beyond math instruction, these cubes develop essential skills like fine motor control, spatial reasoning, and problem-solving. Children strengthen hand muscles as they connect and disconnect the pieces, improving dexterity while they learn. Compatible with other linking cube brands, this set seamlessly integrates with existing classroom or homeschool materials. The durability of these cubes ensures they’ll withstand years of enthusiastic use by multiple students. Teachers appreciate how these manipulatives help differentiate instruction across various ages and learning levels, while parents love watching their children learn through play. Many children enjoy using them to recreate characters from popular math shows or build creative structures during free time. Whether for classroom activities, homeschool lessons, or educational play, these math cubes provide endless opportunities for learning and creativity while building essential math foundations.

Customers say
Customers find these building blocks effective for learning math, with one mentioning how they helped their daughter understand multiplication. The cubes are heavy-duty and study enough to stand together without falling apart, making them suitable for toddlers and kids. Customers appreciate the color variety, which helps with color recognition, and find them great for counting, with one noting their usefulness for counting by 10s. Customers enjoy using them for imaginative play and creating interesting structures, and consider them a great investment for the school year. The snapability receives mixed feedback, with some finding them easy to snap together while others find them difficult to connect.

Great learning tool
Our son is 4 and has so much fun with these. He recognizes the number blocks by color (from the show Numberblocks) and can add, subtract, and multiply pretty quickly by looking at them. This is also a great alternative to legos. He builds a lot of different things with these. Theyâre durable, easily taken apart and put together, and the shape and size of it doesnât hurt when you accidentally step on them lol. Great product. We have asked friends and family to buy these as gifts for birthdays and Christmas because we feel the possibilities are endless for our children. The more they have the more they can build and learn!

Best Math Learning Tool I’ve Used— Even better if you get 5 sets of 100.
Well built, very versatile tool for teaching math. I’m a homeschooling mom with a PhD in Molecular Biology. Math is one of the most fundamental skills that I want to give my kid. At first, I was using duplo blocks to illustrate addition and subtraction, and I didn’t see why I might need anything more. Then I found these Mathlink cubes. They turned out to be the single best math learning tool I’ve used so far.They are well constructed, snap together well, stay together well, and come apart easily for me (slightly difficult for my 5 year old to assemble, but she can pull them apart easily). You can actually build three dimensional shapes with them (you have to be a little clever about how you rotate each block, but it works). My 5 year old and I might construct a 3 X 3 X 3 cube and talk about why 27 is a cube number, while the the 3 year old uses the cubes to build a “crane” that is 30 blocks high. We use them in place of cuisenaire counting rods. We use them to illustrate concepts in our Singapore Math work book. We use them to illustrate multiplication. We use them for place value (10’s and 1’s), subtraction with borrowing, etc.They come in a set of 100, with 10 of each color. For the homeschoolers, I’d recommend buying at least 5 sets of 100. You really need to have about 50 in one color in order to really use this learning tool to its maximum potential. The only downside of these blocks is how many you need to buy to really use them.Also, note, on each six sided cube, there are 5 “holes” and only one “nubbin” that sticks out. At first, I was wishing there were two “nubbin” sides, to make it easier to build stable 3-D shapes. But after months of using them daily, I’ve concluded that the 5/1 design gives the toy the most flexibility for math teaching.Are they a choking hazard? Yes. Can they be chewed up by a toddler? Yes.How will they hold up after years of use? I don’t know. Judging by the slightly rubbery plastic material they are made of, they will probably last a few years with intense use. So these are not quite as durable (or precision engineered) as Lego/Duplo products, which will last for generations. But still, excellent value.

Multi Purposeful. 5 year old on the Spectrum Loves them!!
My 5 Year old son is on the spectrum and he absolutely loves using these blocks to build and engineer his Letters and Numbers even though theyâre intended use is for math. These blocks have really helped with his hand and eye coordination. The multiple color variation is also one of my favorite features. I will continue to purchase this product and the great thing about it is that they are useful even as he gets older!!

Nostalgic
I bought these for my toddlers who will be starting homeschool soon. I remember these from 1st grade and how much I loved them! Such a good tool to build fine motor skills. They are not too hard to pull apart- even for my 18 month old.

Great quality
This block are really sturdy they don’t fall apart like some other i had my kid likes to make different things over than just math with this blocks.

Excellent price, quality/well finished
These are colorful, well made, well finished, fit together well, and the price makes them no real risk. They are quite lightweight, so they can get top heavy easily if placed vertically, they only snap together on one end of each cube and sometimes can take patience to unsnap. I plan to offer them for fidget purposes for kids in psychotherapy.

Great for fine motor development
The linking cubes are not only enjoyable for my students to manipulate during playtime, but they also serve an essential role in promoting fine motor development. I often incorporate them into my lessons during both math and English Language Arts (ELA) small group instruction. By engaging with the cubes, students enhance their dexterity and hand-eye coordination while simultaneously exploring fundamental mathematical concepts. Whether they are building patterns, counting, or creating shapes, the linking cubes effectively bridge learning and play, making the educational experience more interactive and engaging.

Counting Fun
Bought these as a math manipulative for a 7 year old which they are wonderful for. I was not prepared for my 3 year old grandson to also love them for both counting and building. He loves the bright colors and they are fun and he has amazed us with his many creations.
Helaas niet tevreden. Schoenen zijn nu 1,5 maand in gebruik, en de rand/het rubber laat helemaal los! Nu loopt er zo water in. Zit er nog garantie op? –
Leuk, is wat ik er van verwacht had.
