Learning Resources, LRNLER6706, Snap-n-Learn Number Turtles, 1 Each

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used the 5 turtles in my preschool classroom. The children love the turtles. They are a good size for their little hands. I love the shape on the shell and the colorful design. The children enjoy taking the turtle's shell off and identifying the number. It has so many possibilities- shapes, colors, counting and number identification. fun, fun, fun

This product is great quality and is well liked by the two year old I bought it for. This would be a great purchase as well for a daycare provider.

The toddlers in my classroom loved this product. They were so excited playing with the turtles matching colors and shapes they didn't realize they were learning while they were playing. They had fun putting the baby turtles inside the mommy turtles which improved their motor skills.

This will make a nice Christmas gift for a 2 year old.

Kids love playing with this

These snap together and is great for eye hand coordination

Loved these! My toddler is so excited about them and loves to sort out the "mamas" and the "babies".

I work at a child care center. This toy was great for our 2 and 3 year olds. My 5 year olds enjoyed playing with the turtles, but it wasn't very academically stimulating for them. For the older kids, I would love the turtles to be all the same color and then have the numbers on the turtles and shapes on the shells - that way we could work on the 1 to 1 correspondence instead of just matching colors.

I have two children- nearly 2 and 4.5. We recently received these turtles. I wasn't sure which age would work best with them. Would they be too hard for my youngest? Too easy for my oldest? Turns out- they're great for both ages. My younger son liked matching the colors. While he can't name the colors yet he was able to pair up the baby, mother's body, and mother's shell that were the same color. As he did this I talked to him about the colors. He was repeating them after me. My older son enjoyed showing off his number skills with the turtles. He named each number and we talked about the shape that had that number of sides. He wasn't too interested in the colors since that's a skill he mastered awhile back. Both boys liked making "silly turtles" by mixing up the shells and bodies. They also made a turtle parade and played together to march the parade around the room. The toy was interactive and able to keep them both interested in much different way.
