Reviews
- Aaron Akselrud – “I used it for counting and sorting by colors. The children enjoyed counting the fruits”
- Rose – “These worked well for the produce stand I made for my life dolls”
- Chippy Sue – “These fruits counters are great quality, hard rubber eraser type, not foam. The round fruits are the size of a typical ‘super ball’ and the blueberries in a cluster are about the size of a quarter. The grapes are a bit larger and the bananas about 2 inches long. There are 6 different fruits, one single color per fruit (red strawberry, orange, yellow banana, green apple, blueberries, purple grapes) with 18 quantity of each fruit. The fruits come in a nice, sturdy plastic storage tub with cover. I am using these for color sorting and I also purchased giant tweezers for a combined language/fine motor activity. I am super happy with these counters!”
- Jones5 – “Our kids love these fruit counters!! I was hesitant to buy them because they are expensive, and if I were buying them for use as a toy it may not be worth it. However, to use them for educational purposes, giving the children a good hands on visual of counting, addition, and subtraction, they are well worth the investment. Excellent quality, good size, large quantity, and lots of fun for adults and children alike!”
- Alisa Heidleberg – “Works well with preschool food unit”
- Grandmuffin4 – “These were larger than expected, which was a pleasant surprise. I’m using these for Arithmetic counters. They’re perfect and my grand daughters use them for Barbie food, also.”
- Customer Sandi – “Very colorful fruit and detailed. These work great in learning activities with our homeschool program and playing games. Kim guided me to these and they are the best out of all of the ones I read about. Glad I ordered them.”
- Wilson – “These are lovely fruit counters. They have excellent detail and rich colors. However, the orange shapes have no flat edge, so when children place them down, they roll away. This can be frustrating when they are working hard on counting on creating patterns. But overall they are a nice addition to a classroom and I am glad I got them.”
- CIsaza – “Love the colors and shapes, fantastic to introduce math, fun way to learn counting”
- Ladylady – “This set is beautiful! The colors are rich and warm. It feels very soft to the touch; a bit like an eraser but much stronger. The texture keeps it from easily falling out of young hands. The banana and strawberry are a bit smaller compared to the Learning Resources fruit set, but the rest of the fruit is about the same size. Unlike the learning resources set, this set from edx includes a blueberry. You get all 3 primary and all 3 secondary colors so 6 total fruits/colors (with the Learning Resources set you only get 5). This was the prime reason I bought this one, I wanted all primary and secondary colors in the fruits. Great counters and would buy again. You can find great free printables online for this too.”
