Who would love this: Parents and Kids who love numbers and stacking 

SumBlox starter set- this is by far the best mathematics educational toy I have ever seen. They are sturdy, durable, suitable for playgroup, childcare centres, schools, kindergartens, homeschooling, or playtime at home with kids. I love that it can be used for learning purposes, or just stacking and building tall structures. 

Why I love ❤️ it: 

(1) Fun Mathematics: Doing mathematics in a visual and fun way. Each block represents a number; the bigger the number, the higher the block (apart from number 1 where you always need to place horizontally in order to get the right height). Stack the blocks up, and if the numbers add up, the heights will match. So if you place 3, 2 and 5 right on top of each other, it will have the same height as the number 10 block. 

(2) Wooden Design- it’s lovely to look at, and make beautiful decorative piece for any living space. 

(3) Stacking Game: even if a kid is too young to know about number, she can still stack them up and get some hand-eye coordination training. 

One warning: the blocks are made of hard solid wood, so they are heavy, loud, and painful if the stack of blocks collapses on you. So be really careful when you have young kids around. Watch the video below to see the SumBlox stacking in action.
