I selected this with my homeschooled kindergartener in mind. I was looking specifically for “busy work” she could do (mostly) independently while i did one-on-one lessons with her older siblings. I figured this math-building activity would fit the bill nicely and it has, my third grader also likes helping build the scenes. I especially love the different options available with different seasons. The sheets let you know which shapes and how many of each are necessary, which is helpful and a confidence-builder for our little learners. Overall we are pleased with this addition to our classroom, and would recommend to other educators or parents hoping to reinforce math skills and independent work.

The concept of this range is to encourage learning with discussion topics - in my case, I opted for the weather (because British).It is worth noting that I do not have a small child but rather a teenager with learning difficulties and autism who struggles with concepts and coordination - this is actually a good resource for him.The packaging is very eco-friendly, as many have pointed out already, and easy to open. The shapes themselves are smooth plastic and, as such, do slip around a bit. I wonder whether having one side textured would be better or perhaps the boards being textured in some way?The boards are double-sided and numbered so you can progress through the seasons/weather systems in order and the enclosed booklet has some great questions and discussion points to start with. This is a nice touch, I think, and helpful for parents, carers or teachers.Using the provided shapes, the idea is to fill in the blank areas on each board and then talk about what you've made and the scene surrounding it. The pieces slide a fair bit, something which may prove frustrating for some, but it's not enough to make you bin the whole thing. If anything, it encourages a bit more dexterity and patience. There are 4 levels of skill to choose from and at level 4, only the outline of the final shape is provided and you have to figure out how to fit the right pieces into place to fill the picture.The packaging says 3+ for the age range...I would say if you have a child who likes to mouth things, be really vigilant because some of the pieces are very small (see photos for size comparison - I have shown the smallest and largest pieces for reference).Overall, this is a nice resource with some great ideas but at the time of writing, it costs £25 and honestly? I really don't think it's worth it. There are several titles in this series and if they all cost that much...yeah, it's a lot.Bottom line: if this drops in price, get it (or whichever of the sets you think would work best for your child). It's well made, educational and actually quite fun - especially as you can create your own shapes and pictures with the pieces.

I really like the picture backgrounds. Has a variety of levels in difficulty from card to card. You could pose questions to go with each card and use as a science or math center. Very durable pieces and cards.

My family loves tangram puzzles. This is a great set -not just for the littles. The multi-skill level cards are vinyl coated so easily wiped clean and the plastic shape pieces are colorful and easy to wipe down/wash. Great kit for kids learning shapes, but the pieces are fun for the whole family. The enclosed cards are helpful with getting youngsters visually conditioned to see shapes within pictures and replicating a picture using multiple shapes. I am not an educator, as maybe this product was intednd with the lesson plan, but I can see how if this were intended for that demographic-the cards would maybe be too flimsy (unless they were re-laminated to make sturdier and the kit wouldn't be enough for a standard classrroom (as in number of cards and puzzle pieces); however, the size and durability seems great for home school or home use. Etsy stores or even google has printable tangrams puzzles, so the plastic shapes can also be used for those tangram puzzles instead of using printed paper shapes. I love this set for my family and look forward to getting the others available. The box is nice and sturdy. Overall, I think this is a great kit and very well priced and can be used for any age- from the prescribed starting age and up (above the age of tots who put things in their mouths-I can see where the small pieces could be a choking hazard). The box states 3+ which seems appropriate, but the title seems very limiting to note ages 4-8, had I not opened the listing to further investigate I would have negated this item based on the title limiting the age range. Similar tangrams sets I've seen on amazon don't necessarily have the [lesson plans]. I would highly recommend this set for home use

Although I like the concept of this kit, I am a little disappointed with the quality. The blocks themselves are smaller than I thought they would be, and the corners are kind of sharp.The pictures that are included are really flimsy and can very easily be tore up. As a mom of a rambunctious 3, almost 4 year old, I know it won't be long before he tears them up.I feel this kit would be better suited for an older age range. Other than the issues above, it's not bad for the price.

This set has a “seasons” theme with a set of cards for each season along with unique colored blocks. These blocks are not the traditional colors of these shape blocks, so there is an additional level of challenge for the kids to use the colors associated with each season. This is also an opportunity to teach children about “cool” and “warm” colors.The cards vary from easy to hard for each season. The cards are of moderate quality and thickness, but are not laminated.The blocks come in a recyclable but not resealable bag which I get they are wanting to make more environmentally friendly, but means I will just have to use my own resealable plastic bag.🤷♀️This is not a very large set, but good for one or two children at a time. You can find more online activities using these standard shaped blocks (but remember these are not the standard colors).

This box comes with ~10 cards with printed images on the front and back (20 total scenes). The cards have some great art with high-quality images. Each image has blank places where you can place the plastic shapes that are also included. Each card has a difficulty ranking (1-4), and you can see the pieces required in the top-righthand corner on the more difficult puzzles. The cards feel thin and would be somewhat easy to tear or bend if a child isn't being careful.The colored shape pieces are very durable plastic and have a high-quality feel to them. They cannot be bent and I'm sure a child would not be able to break or snap them in two without some serious effort. They come in a mix of colors and shapes, which are designed to match the included cards.My 8-year-old enjoyed playing with the pieces, even without the cards. They can also be stacked or balanced on their sides. My 2.5-year-old is below the recommended age, but was very interested in the set and it kept his attention for a while. It was difficult for him to place the shapes in the correct spot, because there are no physical boundaries to guide where you are placing the pieces (like you would have with a wooden cut-out puzzle). They easily slide out of position if you touch or bump them while trying to place additional pieces. He was having fun, but without supervision I'm sure he would eventually damage the cards and lose the pieces.Overall, it is a quality product with solid plastic pieces and is worth the asking price. The cards look great, but feel a bit too flimsy for young children. It won't be a problem if your child is very careful and particular, but the cards will probably not survive rough play. The pieces can be difficult to place correctly since they easily slide around on the cards. This would be a great purchase for a 4-6 year-old child that likes manipulating small objects with precision and care, but not as good for very young children or children who are rough with their toys.

Es una de las marcas a la que recurrimos cuando necesitamos comprar algun juego para nuestro hijo, siempre aprende algo nuevo y eso una actividad y forma muy didáctica de que se entretenga y disfrute.Aquí a parte de aprender a contar y a conocer bien los colores y formas geométricas le introduces el cuidado del medio ambiente y de los animales, que también es importante en los tiempos que corren concienciar a los mas pequeños de la importancia que tiene.Ademas, le hace cuestionarse cosas y pregunta para conocer sobre los animales y como evolucionan y desarrollan.Vienen 20 tarjetas para hacer puzzles (10 por una cara y 10 por otra cara), una guía de actividades donde se les explica detalladamente las cosas y las figuras geométricas con las que deberán completar dichas tarjetas.Los materiales empleados tanto de las tarjetas como de las figuras son resistentes y sin aristas, fuera de peligro. Eso si, son un poco pequeños, con lo que hay que saber cuándo dárselo al niño para que no lo pueda introducir en la boca.Muy educativo e interesante y por supuesto recomendable.Ideal como compra para tu hijo o para regalar, viene bien precintado y embalado correctamente.
