Evaluation comments:
“The quality of these are wonderful.”
“ The pebbles are colorful and come in many different shapes and sizes. They are the perfect weight–not too heavy and not too light. They have a matte finish on them which keep them from slipping out of your hands when you’re holding more than one.”
“I like that they’re flat for intuitive stacking, but not completely, so it takes a little focus and concentration to pile them on top of each other.”
“The activity cards show different patterns and designs that you can mimic. There are 50 (25 double-sided cards), which will take my daughter a long time to get through. She loves stacking the pebbles, sorting them by size and color, and hiding them around the house for us to find.”
“As an adult, I initially wondered what can I do with a bunch of rocks? It only takes the untethered imagination of a child to realize there are so many things you can do with them! The box helps too because it offers ideas such as stacking, sorting, measuring, and making different shapes and designs.”
“It’s a useful activity for practicing fine motor skills and teaching numbers, colors, and other types of categorization. The innovation is in its simplicity!”
“I really love seeing how a simple toy brings out so much creativity in a young mind.”
