MathLink Cubes Numberblocks Blockzee Balance Activity Set

I recently purchased this for my 4-year-old, and it's been a fantastic addition to our learning activities. The set is well-constructed, with durable components that can withstand enthusiastic play. The balance scale is particularly engaging, allowing my child to explore basic math concepts in a hands-on manner.​ The included activity cards are a great resource, especially for introducing the concepts of "greater than" and "less than." They provide clear, simple exercises that my child can follow, making learning both fun and effective. It's evident that the design of this toy is geared towards making abstract math ideas more tangible for young learners.​ Overall, this toy has been a valuable tool in our educational journey. It's well-made, engaging, and effectively supports early math learning. I would recommend it to other parents looking for interactive ways to teach foundational math concepts.​

Our grandson thoroughly enjoys this game. He is 4 and loves numbers

I love this so much because it’s amazing at teaching students the concept of greater than, equal to, or less than. I think all students can benefit from the visual it gives and the manipulatives paired are amazing. The only tiny complaint I have would be the manipulatives being a bit difficult to push together/pull apart-but that’s good fine motor practice anyway. It’s absolutely one of the best centers I’ve bought all year for my kindergarteners/first graders to use.

My son loves the number blocks and the episode with blockzee so he plays with this none stop I thought that jars should be permanently attached to his hands if they were really going to be used for the actual blocks. I am thinking of gluing them down.

Educational

I wanted a visual way to compare numbers with my kindergarten students that they could manipulate themselves. We sometimes watch the Numberblocks show at the end of the day so I figured this would be a cute way to try and connect. They LOVE this activity. I originally had planned to mostly use it for small group instruction, but they find it so interesting that I am constantly using it (definitely getting my money's worth). The scale and blocks seem high quality and are durable enough to last with my whole class of 5 and 6 year old constantly grabbing at it. The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 was because of setup and storage. You have to stick all of the characters faces on and the scale cannot be stored put together in the box. They fit well together during assembly, but you have to remove the trays after each use and there isn't an organized way to store the blocks. Overall, this is a really cute and effective teaching tool!

My students are OBSESSED with Blockzee and choosing it over all the other toys at playtime. I really love how it makes the greater and less than signs, it’s such a neat tool for teaching comparisons. The only issue I have is that it doesn’t come with many number blocks so I supplemented with a set I bought separately- also Hand2Mind brand. The other ones have faces on plastic squares that clip to the blocks and those squares are heavy enough compared to the weight of the cube that they mess up the balance and skew the results. So if you want it to be accurate you can really only use the blocks that come with this specific set. Still, totally worth it

My 3 yo loves number blocks so we got this for him for Christmas. He plays with it everyday. Such a good investment for my number loving child.

This is a great addition to our Numberblocks collection and makes basic arithmetic more fun and visual. The balance scale helps kids understand weight and comparison in a hands-on way, and we often use other small items to compare sizes and weights just for fun. One thing to note is that the included cups are important. They are specifically made for the scale, and without them it becomes difficult to stack the blocks on the arms properly. As long as you keep track of the cups, it is an engaging and educational set.

Excelente producto. A mi hijo de 5 años le encanta y ha aprendido mucho con ellos.

This is a great game for our 4 year old. She loves this and even better she is learning along the way!
