Miss Bean LOVES doing this Melissa and Doug pattern Block Activity Set as part of her schooling. She is 18 months and does them all by herself. What I love about this set is the fact that the child learns several things at one time. From colors, to shapes, to improving fine motor skills! She is excited to put every one of them together.

Another product we use frequently is the 50 Counting Bears with Tubs. Bean loves to sort, dump, fill, dump again, etc. We are working on colors, and this is the perfect way for her to recognize the matching colored bears with the matching color tub. The bears are the perfect size for those little fingers to grab.
