I’m so excited to review a product for Lakeshore Learning! They are hands down one of my FAVORITE companies and I spend WAY too much money when I go into their store!
If’ you’ve been reading my blog for more than, oh say 1 day, you should know that my primary goal in life is to find things that make learning more fun! Suffice it to say, I’m clearly a visual learner, and gosh darn-it I intend to turn my kids into one as well! With that, I present the highly colorful, and utterly cute Numbers & Counting Folder Games:
What were our thoughts?
Right off the bat I have to say that I absolutely LOVE the colorful file folder box that this comes in. I’m all about neat and tidy, and this is a sturdy cardboard holder for the games that holds everything nicely in it’s place.
Once I got past the shiny new box {uhem…} we started in on the games. I love the cute little pieces for each set. The game boards are thick and durable, while at the same time colorful and super cute!
The kids loved them! They all begged for one in their workboxes today and eagerly went through the other boxes just to get to their games. I let my older daughter do one too just because they’re fun, obviously these are really meant more for preschool to Kindergarten level I think but we like to share at our house! I think the colorful pieces made all the difference too. Each game is so cute, the kids couldn’t wait to try the next one so we ended up playing them all!
One of my favorite games is the Hungry Alligator game. It was really easy to explain greater than / less than using this game. The illustration of the alligator being hungry was perfect for my son!
And they’re the PERFECT addition and size for my workboxes too!
So What’s Included?
The set includes 10 games that cover number sense, quantities, counting, sequencing, greater than/less than and more! Inside the box you’ll find:
-
10 Activity Folders
-
10 Sets of Tiles
-
10 Color Coded Storage Pouches
-
Hungry Alligators answer card
-
Flip-top Storage Box
-
Reproducible Assessment Cards
What’s the cost? $29.95

I LOVE Lakeshore, it's a good thing I am so far away from one. Just need to stay off the website now 🙂
Lakeshore is a favorite in our home too! Thanks for the review! Kerri
Thanks Erica, it does make me feel better knowing I'm not the only one who gets nervous about teaching my children–such an important job! I especially appreciated the post of yours that talks about your "excuses" to God and His reassurances to you. I'm thankful for God's strength and grace, I sure couldn't be a mom without it!
