This is a great activity. I really like it for kindergarteners. However, I will say it does have a lot of small foam dots, which are used to put in the letters. I teach a special education kindergarten class so this wasn’t the best activity for them, only because they put the tiny foam dots in their mouth. With that said my students really liked the activity and they enjoy playing with these whenever they can. I do recommend this product!
These cards are fun the little pop in foam pieces are very small so I wouldn’t use with really young children. I plan on using these with my kindergartners. This gives them a great tactile experience in the formation of the letters. The cards are small and compact. Fun game to learn the alphabet.
This is a nice set for toddlers to use to help with learning the alphabet. My only concern is the small “dot” pieces. I would definitely keep an eye on any toddler using this set to ensure they do not try to “taste” or eat the little dots. This set is soft, colorful and fun for learning. You can create words that do not have duplicate letters and have fun while helping your toddler learn.
My toddler loves these letters! She has so much fun popping out the little foam dots and putting them in to the letters or back into the dot holders. Each letter has multiple words with matching pictures that correspond with the letter. The colors are bright and the graphics are cute. So far the durability is good too. Great learning activity for a toddler. This product helps learn letters, colors, words, and improves fine motor skills. I am very happy with this product and so is my toddler.
This set comes with all 26 letters in the English alphabet and 210 foam dots (6 sheets of colored dots with 35 dots on each sheet). Initially, I got these for my kindergartners to help with letter recognition because of the hands on nature of the letters/foam. It wasn't until I was using them yesterday with my 1st graders in an intervention class though that I realized how amazing the foam pieces are for building the fine motor strength necessary for a correct pencil grip. Students use their thumbs and forefingers (or thumbs, forefingers, and middle fingers) to correctly grip a pencil, which does not come naturally for some children. The process of picking up these foam pieces repeatedly is great for building that strength. My first graders love working with the foam and showing me the letters with all of the dots filled in.My only complaint is not something major and was certainly something I could see prior to ordering: the font of the letters is weird. The extra little tail on the letter "i" makes it look like a backward "j", and the "t" simply looks strange.
Jack in the Box Learn the alphabet with foam is a great tool to teach letters to tactile, visual and sensory learners. This resource can be used in a center independently or in small group. Pop, fill, learn, as the child fills the holes of each letter with foam cylinders, makes learning fun. This educational resource can be used in preschool, kindergarten, first grade and special education classrooms.
It helps students to physically feel and be aware of what tracing a letter feels like. Only con is that you have to stick the cushion dots on yourself. As a teacher, I wish these were already on there permanently. I have a lot of students who will peel them off.
These are a fun twist on alphabet foam letters - this is a set of foam blocks that show many examples of words that start with each given letter. It also comes with small foam cylinders that kids are meant to insert into the letters to help them learn how to write and recognize each letter.I have set aside the small dots for now since they pose a choking hazard to my toddler. Once he is older and ready to start trying to trace the letters himself, I may introduce them again for him to try.But for now, even just having these foam blocks is handy. These are well constructed with colorful vibrant designs and the examples are varied and fun to expose to my toddler.
