Mini Muffin Phonics Activity Set, Preschool Toys, Preschool Learning Activities, Play Food, Kindergarten Toys, Ages 4+,70 Pieces

The game comes with an instruction booklet. There are suggested games detailed in the booklet. However, there are many more ways in which it can be used. I purchased this for my 3 year old daughter. She loves it - it has become her new favorite toy. She thoroughly enjoys learning through play - so any toy which stimulates her brain is a fantastic choice at this stage. I didn't have to show her how to use the Squeezy Tweezers - she immediately figured it out on her own (she's at the phase - I can do it myself). I opened the package and gave her some time to play freely while I closely observed her before I introduced her to the different suggested learning games/ activities. I've seen improvement in her motor control skills, ability to quickly sort colours, identify numbers and she's only used it about 4 times thus far. I've used this to teach her patterns, counting, identifying numbers and colours, sorting colours. It's my first time purchasing a Learning Resources product and I must say, it is fantastic. I am currently recommending to others and I'm searching through other products by Learning Resources to purchase as Christmas presents.

This is a gem! I bought this for my 3 yr old, learning basic math skills. What a treat. The pieces are so sturdy, well constructed and so bright and colorful! Muffins are adorable and a great size for little hands. These pieces are not tiny! And they are solid, not hollow. The dice are large, soft and colorful. The versatility of ways to play, match, sort, count is wonderful. The little cards and dice direct the child to group the muffins into the cups in various ways, or make patterns. She even stacked the muffins (into a pyramid sort of pile) which was a delight to watch. Oh, and the squeezy tweezers! Even I want to use those things!! I was so pleased over all and she is having a blast. I HIGHLY recommend this gem of a product. For learning to count, color sort or just play. I would buy again and again! Now I have to go help her create an oven...because as an added bonus, she's "making me muffins" for breakfast.

The dice and cards make this game versatile. I can see my daughter playing with it for years to come. She is 2 years old and likes using the "forcep/scoops" to pick up the muffins. She doesn't quite get the let go to close the forceps, since with most forceps you have to squeeze to hold/pick up things. I would not leave any child with oral fixations unsupervised with this toy, the muffins are a choking hazard. We are using this for color matching right now. I love that the cards have colors with numbers on the back for when she gets older. You can also roll the dice to decide what colors to retrieve, and how many. We probably play with this for about 5-10 minutes every other day right now depending on her attention span.

I'll start by saying the game pieces are really high quality. The colors are really bright and fun. I like the easy to follow instructions provided with the kit as well as the many ideas for different ways to play the game. I also love how open ended these pieces are, allowing children to make their own rules and play together or individually. I purchased this as a sorting activity for our 2.5 year old hoping it could translate into a game her and her 9 year old sister could play with together. So far, both girls love this. As a sorting game, the 2.5 year old likes to play independently and is also learning to take turns with the colored die while the 9 year old likes to have a race to see who can pick up the muffin pieces fastest (we use small kitchen tongs so players can race). 9 year old has also used it occasionally to practice math. Both girls have used the set to have a tea party with mini muffins and a small tea set. So far, we are very happy with this purchase. Any time I can get use out of a toy or game for both of our children, I consider it a win!

Absolutely adorable game! Nice strong plastic material - not a cheap feel. Comes with a few games / learning activities you can do. It’s also really easy to make your own or just use as a free play activity. We do them all. Would hold up great in a classroom or with multiple little hands or over multiple years. The little purple tongs are adorable and easy enough for my 3.5 year old to use. If too hard little ones can just use their hands of course. EXTREMELY happy with this purchase!!!!

This is a super cute toy that allows me to play with my son while also teaching him numbers and reinforcing colors. He did break the scooper in about 2 seconds but that's more about him being a crazy toddler than the quality of the toy. We now use a regular or measuring spoon if he wants to scoop up the muffins. We change around the little paper cards from colors to colors and numbers to keep it interesting and I will ask him to count as he's dropping the muffins in the correct spot. Sometimes he just wants to sort and he places all the grouped colors in their spot and enjoys that as well. Overall, I'm happy with my purchase.

I’m a huge fan of gifting my kids with learning toys. My son just turned 3 and since schools are out I need to step up the skill building activities. The tweezers are great for helping his grip and building fine motor capabilities without frustrating us both beyond consolation. This is also great for working on colors, counting, and basic addition/subtraction. The quality of this toy is so great that I will likely donate to a school after we have gotten our use out of it.

I love to use this for my math centers. Helps students with colors, fine motor skills, counting and sorting. Could even be used for patterning. The kids love it!

Bel giocattolo a i miei piccoli è piaciuto molto, e lo ho ricomprato per una regalo di compleanno per un’amica di scuola.top

gran juego para toda la familia y para los peques desarrollar la psicomotricidad fina

J'ai acheté ce jeu pour mon fils de 3 ans, car il a du mal à tenir son crayon "en faisant la pince". Avec la pince à muffins c'est bien plus rigolo et il se muscle les doigts sans s'en apercevoir. Le jeu permet également de consolider l'apprentissage des couleurs, d'apprendre à compter, à reconnaître les chiffres. Beaucoup de possibilités et il plaît bien aux enfants avec ses petits gateaux colorés. Carton plein !!!

I know the ages say 3+ for safety purposes but it is the perfect toy for my daughter and a couple other friends who had kids who needed something “older” to play with when they were smaller/younger. So if your kid doesn’t stick everything in their mouths and actually plays with toys appropriately at 2 or younger then it’s actually really great for them too. I wish I would’ve purchased it sooner. It’s so versatile - you can use it with the muffin tin and use it as the learning resource it’s intended for but my little likes to sort them on the coffee table into colored piles, or pretend play with it, the little pick up tool is great for fine motor skills so even if all she does is pick one up and put it down somewhere other than the intended use she’s still learning something. Can’t wait to try other products out!

Great for fine motor n counting skill for my kid . Love it 😄👍
