Fun & Educational Set for When Heâs Ready
This set feels well-made. The number pieces are thick and brightly colored, though the puzzle board itself is a bit thin.At this age, I was mostly interested in this set for number recognition. However, my 2.5-year-old does not recognize the number 2, likely because of its “squishy” shape (for lack of a better word). He is also having trouble with the numbers 7 and 9, which I did not expect. From a toddlerâs perspective, I can understand whyâthe flat line at the bottom of both does not match how those numbers are typically shown in books or toys.This concept is a good one, and I think it will be more useful as he gets older and starts working on early math skills like basic addition. He also does not yet have the patience to use these blocks for building, but I hope we will get more use out of them later on for that, too.This set may be a great fit for other toddlers around this ageâit just was not quite a match for mine right now.(Also, the product description mentioned a play guide, but there was not one included.)

Compare pricesâ¦.they are all the same..almost
I was intrigued by these number blocks and thought my grandkids might find them fun. Of course theyâre 4 young kids and sharing isnât always without loud discussion first (and sometimes tears). I noticed that these number blocks seem to be all over, sold by various sellers (for different prices sometimes). Since I had the opportunity, I decided to get sets from 3 different sellers so I could compare them. 2 single sets in puzzle frames and 1 double set in a box with game cards.THIS one is a single set in a puzzle frame. It is shrink wrapped and has no lid, so after opening you will need to store them in something. THIS set has three differences from the other single set in a frame.â¦.This set has instructions/suggestions on the back.â¦.This set has a very slightly different shade of pink for the number 8 (otherwise the two sets are indistinguishable from each other).â¦..This set was currently listed for $2 more than the set without any instructions.The double set has pieces identical to the other single set but has a storage box (but no puzzle frame), cards, and has two of each number (plus five numbers 1). It listed for 150% of the price of this single set.So, bottom line for me is cost. These puzzles look like they were all made at the same place with the same specifications. I see no difference in quality and they appear to work interchangeably.Decide if you want the frame or the box (or just use you own box/bag). Compare the prices and save yourself some money if you can.These are actually quite fun to play with – but itâs most fun if you have several sets!

Toddler-Tested, Parent-Approved: A Solid Math Toy With a Minor Travel Gamble
I bought this for my two-year-old, who is surprisingly gentle for a toddler and loves stacking the numbers and putting them back in their spots like itâs his personal mission. The pieces are solid, colorful, and actually hold up well to normal toddler behavior, so no complaints there.Now, taking it on the go? A bit trickier. Itâs a puzzle, after all, which means losing even one piece turns it into an expensive guessing game instead of an educational toy. That being said, itâs small enough to toss in a bag if youâre brave enough to keep track of all the pieces.I rate it five stars because it does everything it promises, itâs sturdy, fun, and doesnât drain my bank account. That said, I wouldnât mind it being a few bucks cheaper, but Iâm not going to fight about it because itâs both a puzzle and a stacking block set, so at least itâs pulling double duty.

Great teaching tool for number partners to students or your own kids.
I heard from another teacher how she was using these. She let me borrow these and it was a helpful visual for the students. I had to get my own. I use in kindergarten for example ways to make 7,8, and 10 pictured above. I love how they all equal the same height to tell you the sum. I model in whole group, practice at the teacher table and then use them at the independent station for the children to explore. Since they donât have doubles I just had them solve the missing number pair. Great for Ohioâs kindergartner and first grade state standards! Colors are exactly as pictured!

Number puzzle
This was much smaller than expected, and it just a puzzle. I was expecting more of a math tool.

Beautiful wood number puzzle
Really nice wooden number set. Made with real wood and painted with quality paint that hasn’t peeled, cracked or worn off on the spots where you put the puzzle piece together. Numbers from 0 to 9. All the numbers are different colors and makes a puzzle when put together correctly. The numbers don’t have sharp edges or points where they could hurt a kid. Really nice number set.

Fun Starter Set With Room to Grow
The chunky wooden blocks feel really sturdy and have a nice smooth finish. Theyâve already taken a few drops and scuffs without any issues, which is exactly what you’d want with little ones. The colors are bright and easy to tell apart, which makes them fun to line up or stack. The included play guide has some simple activities that are easy to follow, and the fact that everything fits in a small bag makes it easy to toss in the car or bring to grandmaâs. That said, I do wish it came with the challenge cards like some other sets. It wouldâve added a bit more variety and structure for older toddlers who are ready for more. Also, while the blocks are great for basic play, I could see kids growing out of them kinda quick if theyâre already familiar with counting.

Fun in a a small box
Numbers never looked so good. An amazing concept thatâs fun and challenging. Cards are included to spur your stacking -shape creativity. But also each wooden number has a dot on the bottom corresponding to its number ( 1 dot for 1). Children can learn colors and numbers at the same time. This could be a great tool for teaching another language too.
