Learning ResourcesCounting Surprise Party, Homeschool, Fine Motor, Counting & Sorting Toy, Ages 3+

Durable product at a great price. Would make a great gift for a young child. I use with my preschoolers for speech therapy and they love these toys so much! Promotes so many early learning skills!

This toy has helped me with my speech delayed toddler so much, it’s such a fun way to interact, learning colors, numbers, and to learn what all the fun surprises in the boxes are.

My son loves opening these and seeing what’s inside. And it’s great way to practice language skills with him.

I LOVE this toy and my little clients do too!! I am a pediatric speech language pathologist and use this toy in many ways, but my favorite is to hide the boxes in a sensory bin and depending on the objectives of each child, so incorporate the words or sounds. Even if I don’t have the activity planned, my little ones choose it! They love finding what’s inside and then we match the objects with the colored boxes. The boxes and the toys are well made and the perfect size!

These are really cute and my son has played with them since they were delivered.

I love this toy! I am an Early Childhood SLP and have used this for several days now to encourage expressive language with both my granddaughter and my ECSE students during speech and language therapy. The lids are somewhat tight, which I like to encourage children to ask for help if they can't get the lid on or off. The objects are easy for children to identify and name. I plan to use this as a reward system for children during speech/language therapy, to hide small objects for children to work on specific sounds during speech therapy, to work on vocabulary development with children, to work on simple spatial concepts, and to use to extend words into phrases and sentences. It would be awesome if they sold an extended batch of miniature items, but I can likely find things to use elsewhere. It would also be nice if they came in a storage container. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because of the strange colors they used. It would be much more beneficial for toddlers/preschoolers if they were standard colors: red, blue, yellow, green, purple, orange, pink, brown, black, white, and gray. It would also be nice if the items that went in the box had something that coordinated with the number on that box. This is fantastic for working on pre-academic skills, such as matching colors of the lids with the boxes, recognizing numbers, one-to-one correspondence, subitizing, etc. Bilateral hand skills are used when children hold the box in one hand and use their other hand to remove and put on the lid. Overall, I highly recommend this toy for children who do not put things in their mouths. Children should probably be supervised while using this since the small items are a choking hazard.

This toy is FANTASTIC for so many reasons! The present boxes open and close easily for surprise egg play, but they also double as present toys for all of our other playsets and toys! Peppa pig, Mickey mouse, Barbie, Calico Critters-- everyone has presents for pretend birthday parties and Christmas! Also, the trinkets inside of the present boxes are really great quality. We use them in play with our other playsets, too! My daughter received them when she was 2 years old. My kids are STILL playing with these every day (daughter 3, son 7) because of the versatility! The ways to play with this toy are literally endless. Get it to have accessories and present boxes for all of your other toys, it's worth it for that alone! Get it to have "surprise egg" containers that actually work for small hands to open and close by themselves! Either way, just get it. This is one of those sets that is a MEGA WIN no matter how you slice it. It's perfect for play!

Got these on sale and could not be happier! I actually bought these for my very young toddler who LOVES all things fine motor and spends hours putting the toys into the boxes and attempting to cap them (unsuccessfully and usually in the wrong box) but it’s a work in progress! I would not recommend if your child still mouths toys as they are pretty small. These are also used often by my three year old for a ton of games including “Close your eyes and tell me which box I take” and sequencing numbers and rainbow patterns. This has been a highly versatile and useful toy for all three of my boys
