I thought these might be too small for our little experience Center but surprisingly they were much larger than I thought and perfect for little hands.

I bought these to use with a phonics center. I was surprised to find that my students love playing with these manipulatives, and that they keep there interest. During transitions they love to work with these - they love mixing up the colors and shapes. They also try to see how many nuts they can put on one bolt. So much more fun than I thought!

These are perfect for arrival activities!

These are great in helping the children to develop their fine motor skills.

Students like it, a lot can be done with patterning.

Great item for my students who had a blast using them, they loved them. They are a bit expensive though and I wish there had been a rounded shape instead of an octagonal shape.
