must have for toddlors

My son loves these elephants. You can do so many things this can grow with your child because you can add subtraction and addition it comes with cute cards. It is not a choking hazard, and it is worth the investment.

2 in 1 toy

I love this toy because you can use it for so many activities! Your child can learn colors, counting and sequencing. The elephants can grow with your child and learning beyond just ages 2-5. Once he gets older, I plan on making addition/subtraction flashcards and use the elephants to learn to do both skills!

Love this Early Math Kit!

I use this Early Math Kit to teach my severely autistic, nonverbal son. It is very helpful teaching him colors, sizes, sorting, patterns, and counting. The elephant counters are very well made, heavy, have lasted years. I use the elephant counters to do addition and subtraction problems as he got older. I am so glad that I purchased this Early Math Kit! I would highly recommend it.

Good quality

Our 2yo likes playing with the elephants when he visits. The elephants are very dense and heavy. He’s able to sort by colors, starting to differentiate by size, sequencing patterns are still beyond him. I like that he will be able to use this for a while

Multiple uses

I bought these because my two year old grandson loves elephants, and it provides many learning activities to keep him engaged. They also provide open ended imaginary play.

Durable

These elephants are very durable. They have a nice weight and feel for small hands. I love the different activities that are capable with the different sizes and colors. They will also fit right in with my safari themed classroom.

Size discrimination

Awesome hands on way to learn size discrimination. I love this activity because I use to work with both daycare children (sorting) kinders and 1st graders. (Pattern work)

Fun and imaginative play

I bought this for my 4 year old granddaughter as I babysit her daily and do virtual learning pre-k. I wanted her to have some fun and relaxing activities after computer time. She loves it and uses the vehicles and community workers that I ordered as well.
