Learning Resources MathLink Cubes Big Builders - Math Manipulatives Kindergarten Games, Ages 5+

In a world of technology this is what my daughter asked for as a gift. She said they use them in math class. She really likes them. There are a lot of them in the pack for endless fun.

Math cubes are good for kids of all ages. When younger children use the blocks they can build and sort by colors, as the kids age they can continue use by using the blocks to count and build more complex creations. The math cubes also teach fine motor skills by having to click the blocks together and pull apart.

It is a very interactive learning activity. Inspires the kids to use their imagination to create new things. At the same time it is challenging to create figures because there is only one side that plugs in. So the kids needs to figure a way to connect them all..

We were very impressed with the math link building cubes! They are easy to stack and make it easy for the kids to explore their creative side and build anything they can think of. My girls built everything from chairs, tables, boxes, to animals. The set comes with illustrated instructions on how to build many different things. My youngest daughter did well sorting and counting using the cubes, the bright colors and fun design made learning fun for her.

My daughter was so excited when the box from learning resources arrived. We immediately opened it and she has played with the MathLink cube big builders non stop since, we received them over two weeks ago. She spends hours creating all sorts of animals, buildings and other items. We have yet to use them as an educational tool but they will be used once we start back to school. I as a parent loved that she is able to play imaginatively and that this toy is so multifunctional. They are a great quality which will last us many years, which is great having two children.

I am a homeschooling parent of 5+ years now so interactive learning tools are awesome in our house. The blocks look just like the ones I remember using as a kid in school for counting. They work great for that, counting and a few different colors these are great. Building and advertising as a toy doesn't work. With each block only having one protruding end to connect other pieces too nothing stays together. The bigger designs aren't sturdy because the bigger sections only have one connection point to the section below it. The connectors are also not very good. The second one tries to move a built piece it all falls apart. It left much more frustration for my kid than it did fun. Unless you can sit there forever to pre plan a build so it goes together it's just not worth it. Counting, these are good but that doesn't make them original because there is already stuff like that. Building and a fun toy as well- they need a bit of fixing before it's something I'd recommend or buy.

Kids were super impressed with this! They spent hours creating the figures from the pamphlet provided and also create their own. Blocks are durable and high quality. We love the vibrant colors! Great tools for learning! Excited to see what else MathLinks has to offer.

We recieved number blocks via bzzagent. My daughter is a math wiz and loves to play with these in a math fashion, however she was really pleased with the instructions on how to make various animals. She loved to build a tree and play with them that way as well. They were vibrantly colored, and high quality.

These big builder cubes are so much fun for me and my son to sit down and do together. It does come with some ideas and shows you how to build a few things or you can just wing it and do your own thing. Either way you choose to play it's a great experience and learning opportunity.

These are so fun! My kids have made so many different builds with these! It comes with a paper for some ideas which have been very fun. The blocks are a great size and all the colors are bright. The only flaw I have noticed is sometimes the blocks don't stay connected and will pop off when trying to build. It can be frustrating but just have to keep trying.
