Great resource
I was wondering if there is a PDF of the activity cards so more than one student can form the same letter simultaneously. Can you connect me with such a thing?

Not as easy as it looks
I am using this with 4/5 yr. olds. Putting the curves and lines together is not as easy as it looks for little hands. I do like how it is a hands-on activity for showing the curves and lines necessary to make the letters. I would not have purchased this had I known how difficult it is for little hands.

My kids love making letters
My kids love making letters! They are a little hard to open in the beginning though as they are tight. The colors are fun too.

Frustrating experience for kids
I was disappointed with this purchase. The reviews were great, and I thought this would be a great product to use with the kids I work with. But the pieces to make the letters are too big! I was expecting them to be much smaller. They are too big for the kids to handle. Also, the when the product first arrives, the pieces are very difficult to get apart, but then o...

My highest level kiddos built -at words yesterday and read them, my middle group created as many letters as they could during center time and placed them on the matching letter on our classroom big carpet, my lowest students have been trying to manipulate t...

Very nice hands on letter forming toy
My grand children enjoy making their name with these. They create other things with them as well. Very sturdy and color coded. I like how they snap together for storage.

Great product, great customer service!
I am a preschool teacher and I use this letter construction set in my thinking center. One day, a student who has difficulty with his letters came up to me and showed me the letter he made (p). He identified it correctly! I asked him to go see if he can make the letter "N," and he initiated conversation with a classmate pertaining to the letter and the construction set....

Great product
So great for the light table and so big! I actually love the size, great for little hands to manipulate. My little one has loved making the letters come to life as well as experimenting with the pieces to make designs and her letter inventions.

Great practice!
I purchased this set for my grandsons to use. The boys are 4 years old and we do pre-school during the day while their parents work. They love to play with this set!

Love it but
Love the product. Although the stacks can be a little difficult for little fingers to pull apart at first but great storage and cards. Like the stack don't know how well snapping will hold up over time. BIGGEST CON: ONLY thing I wish as with all products like this is there was enough to actually build all lower case or upper case letters in the Alphabet at the same time...

Great learning toy
Have used this in my 4-5 year old room with great success for 2 years. The children love to create structures as well as letters. It leads to incidental learning while they are creating. I did laminate the cards that came with the set and put them on a ring to make sure they stayed together. I will get a second set someday.

Love it
This was very engaging for a students with Autism. The precise nature of the activity and the color coded examples were just what he needed. It will coordinate with handwriting resources that I frequently use.
