hand2mind Manipulatives at Home Activity Guide: Kindergarten Teaching Charts & Props, Plastic, 293 Pieces

This is one of the best maths sets we have seen! As a homeschooling family, finding good maths resources are a must, and this is one of those valuable resources. This set comes with so many different pieces, that have endless ways of teaching maths skills. So far we have been looking at shapes.. colours.. using the cubes to aid in counting, we have been measuring, and using the clock to learn the time. The shapes and small cubes are made of foam, and seem very durable, and the Mathlink cubes are fantastic quality. This set really has helped both of my children so much, I would definitely recommend it!

I have to say this is one of the best maths homeschooling kits I have ever got. It comes with connecting blocks that are fantastic for measuring and doing sums, 4 green + 5 black = 9 red. It makes it much easier for my homeschooled son to count them out as he can clearly see what sum we are trying to do. The clock is our favourite part. My son has always had a fascination with clocks and time. This clock is very special because when you move the minute hand it also moves the hour hand. We no longer try to get the hour hand in the perfect place as this clock does for us. Since having this set he now understands quarter to, quarter past and of course oclock and half past. It also comes with foam cubes that we haven't dived into yet as we are still working on telling the time. This set also comes with a booklet to explain how you can use them. It is definitely aimed at parents who want to teach. It is fantastic if you have just got into home school as it gives you very detailed instructions on how to "play" . My son really enjoys our maths lessons thanks to this kit.
