Learning Resources Birds in a Nest Sorting Set

Great addition to fine motor activities, color sorting and imaginative play. Bowls and birds are smaller than expected but sufficient size for smaller hands.

Great time consuming teaching toy

These mama and baby birds are so cute! They're solidly made, and my kids love to hold them and sort and pattern them into their nest bowls. The mama birds can also be finger puppets.

such a great buy for a little one

Great color matching product for preschool kids - high quality product

Adorable. I've been please with everything I've purhased from learning resources so far.

"Match the mama bird to her baby birds. Sequence colors in rows and patterns to complete. Collect each color and sort them into six nests." Guided play is a pre-school must-have. This sorting set helps imaginations sparkle. Watch the happiness spread across your kids face when they get the pattern right! This toy brings about those little ah-ha moments you'll remember. It's a pop of color for the classroom.

After I received these birds and nests I packed them up in a small bag and put it in my car. Since then, I pull the bag out anytime we are somewhere that involves waiting (restaurant, doctor's office, etc.) The other day I needed an oil change and had my two sons (ages 2 and 4.5) with me. We took them inside. My older son helped my younger son sort all the birds into their nest. He talked to him about the colors. They used them in dramatic play, having them fly around to different nests and talk to other birds. When my car was finished they were so engaged that they didn't want to leave. The toys are brightly colored and engaging. The birds are soft and easy to grip. They pack up nicely and don't take up much space at all. The big bird has a hole underneath that's just the right size for a little finger, making the flying bird game pretty fun.

My 3 year old really likes these when she plays with them but unfortunately it's not a toy she reaches for often or plays with for very long, it doesn't seem to keep her interest.

Needs more, like dice, learning cards, etc.
