I recently purchased the Learning Resources Jumbo Magnetic Numbers for my classroom, and I am thrilled to share my experience with this fantastic educational resource. These magnetic numbers have quickly become a staple in my teaching toolkit, and they have had a profound impact on my students' number recognition and counting skills.Let me start by sharing a heartwarming personal story that perfectly illustrates the power of these magnetic numbers. One of my students, Emma, was struggling with number recognition and had difficulty grasping the concept of counting. Traditional methods weren't resonating with her, and I was determined to find a solution that would ignite her interest in math.That's when I introduced the Learning Resources Jumbo Magnetic Numbers to Emma. The moment she laid eyes on the colorful, oversized numbers, her face lit up with curiosity and excitement. The vibrant hues and large size captured her attention and made her eager to explore further.Using the magnetic numbers, we embarked on a journey of learning and discovery. Emma was able to physically manipulate the numbers, arranging them in various sequences and patterns. The tactile experience brought the abstract world of numbers to life for her. With each interaction, her confidence grew, and her number recognition skills flourished.One particular day, Emma surprised me by confidently counting to ten using the magnetic numbers. The sense of accomplishment in her eyes was priceless. The Learning Resources Jumbo Magnetic Numbers had provided her with the hands-on experience and visual cues she needed to grasp the concept of counting.Aside from Emma's personal triumph, the magnetic numbers have consistently engaged and captivated the entire class. The bold colors and large size make them highly visible for all students, even from a distance. The jumbo magnets adhere well to our whiteboard, allowing for interactive lessons and group activities. The kids eagerly take turns arranging the numbers, creating their own number sequences and solving simple math problems.The durability of the magnetic numbers is exceptional. Despite frequent use and handling by enthusiastic little hands, they have withstood the test of time, maintaining their magnetic strength and vibrant colors. Cleaning them is a breeze—just a quick wipe with a damp cloth, and they look as good as new.The Learning Resources Jumbo Magnetic Numbers have transformed my classroom into a dynamic and interactive learning environment. They have reignited my students' enthusiasm for numbers and counting, providing a solid foundation for their math skills. Witnessing Emma's journey and the overall positive impact on my students' learning experiences has been incredibly rewarding.If you're an educator or a parent looking to enhance number recognition and counting skills in a fun and engaging way, I wholeheartedly recommend the Learning Resources Jumbo Magnetic Numbers. They are a game-changer in the classroom, fostering a love for math and inspiring young minds to embrace the world of numbers.

I was afraid that these numbers would be the small ones you find at the store advertising as "jumbo". These actually are really big. Perfect size for my 2 year old to play with and not stick in him mouth! I would like to point out that these do have small magnets in them and no matter how well something is made, you should watch little ones really close with magnets so they are not swallowed.

Good for children.

Initially I thought I was ordering the alpha letters, as indicated in the picture. I think the picture needs to be changed. Other than that, the kids enjoy the numbers and will for a long time. The colors are nice and bright, and the jumbo size is nice for the little fingers. The magnetic aspect is a nice feature for their magnetic board, which helps to keep from getting lost.

These numbers are the perfect size for a young child. My granddaughter started using them at 1 1/2. We identified the numbers and colors. She is 22 months old and knows the numbers from 1 to 10 and every color. I totally recommend them for teaching your child.

I bought these for my grandson (14 months) who continually kept taking my magnetic Santa and snowman off my dishwasher and fridge and chewing on them. I figured these jumbo plastic magnetic numbers would be a great play toy now and a learning tool later. Well my grandson loves them; he throws them, chews them (I checked every number and the magnets are solidly put on the numbers), throws them in the air, throws them at me LOL. He has even learned to put them back on the fridge and dishwasher (when he feels like it). I would highly recommend these and the jumbo plastic magnetic letters made by this manufacturer. You will not be disappointed.

Pros: Great big letters that no one can eat. Excellent for babies (my two are one year old). The colors are bold and bright. The magnets work and don't fall out with rough play. I love that it comes in a plastic bucket- which is almost as big of a hit as the numbers themselves.Cons: Just the right width for slipping under the fridge and not slipping back out! Keep an eye on what ends up under the fridge. You will probably have to slide the fridge out a few times a week to retrieve the lost magnets.AWESOME!

These numbers are very nice and large. We enjoy teaching our toddler numbers with them because they don’t easily get mixed up. The only thing that would make these better is if the magnet was stronger. They have a hard time staying up on the fridge.
