Curious Columbus - Magnetic Letters & Numbers

Great product! Magnet is strong and will hold a piece of paper on the fridge. Perfect size for my 2.5yr old’s hand. Love that the magnet is completely attached - no risk of a swallowing a magnet! 1 capital and 3 lowercase of each letter. Fun for recognizing letters! Love this set!

I liked how these looked so much I bought 3 different boxes (pink, yellow, blue - numbers, letters, animals, objects). All magnets came in terrific condition nothing peeling, ripped or chipped. Colors are vibrant and not a single animal picture is the same. There are 2 zebras, 2 jellyfish and 2 octopus, out of 2 different boxes, but they are different pictures & colors. That was one thing that I weas worried about, if I got 2 different box sets that came with objects and animals or numbers and animals, there would be any duplicates, there were none. Another thing that I like is that the magnets aren't hard to remove when being stuck to surfaces. They are strong enough not to slide down, but easy enough for the little one to take off. Magnets come in a resealable bag as well as a nice colorful box. Really nice looking product.

These letters are perfect for my needs. I volunteer mentoring/tutoring disadvantaged preschool children, helping to get them ready for Kindergarten. Right now I am working with kids from two families: one is 6 and the other is 3 years old. I bring a rolling cart with me full of books and preschool games/activities/crafts; the kids choose what they want to work on. Both kids picked out these letters first and were excited to identify/find letters and spell their names (and other words for the older kid) on a small whiteboard. The older one then wrote the words on the whiteboard with a wipe-off marker. We also were able to work on color identification, because each letter is a different color. The letters seem well made and stick fine to the white board. The kids loved them. I liked the convenient packaging and the secure, screw-on lid. What more could you asked for?

Great size for little hands without being too little that they present a choking hazard. I like the one piece full-back magnet on the letters as well; don’t have to worry about little magnet pieces popping out and getting ingested.

I bought these for my great granddaughter who is just 2 years old. She can already recite the alphabet so I planned to play games so that she could begin to recognize what the letters look like. I sorted out just the capital letters to begin with due to her age. They are great, she can handle them easily in her little fingers and is beginning to get the idea that the black side has to go against the magnetic board. My only complaint is this: in sorting out the letters i noticed that there are 3 of each lower case letter which is great. However, after getting them all sorted, I couldn't understand why I had extra n's and b's until I realized that if I turned them over they became u and q respectively. If, as an adult, I am having a problem determining which is which, I don't know how I will explain this to a very young child. At least the n and u are different colors, but the b and q are all in the same color. I don't know how you can rectify this, but you should certainly look closely at it. I ended up using a pen to write the capital version of the letter on the front so that I could tell them apart. Other than that, I am extremely pleased with this set. You might consider offering a magnetic easel to go with them at some point.

Colorful, sturdy, large letters perfect for a 2 year old learning letters and numbers. I love the magnetic strip on the back instead of the tiny magnets on other letters. The magnetic strip is safer, not likely to be swallowed by little ones.

I really liked these. My 1.5 year old is still too young for them. The box says 3+. This will keep her busy when I’m in the kitchen as she gets older for sure. They stayed put on the fridge. The entire back is a magnet and they’re soft so I don’t think these will scratch the stainless steel. Her nails did scratch the surface of the fridge though, so keep that in mind. The strength is good. They definitely don’t seem like they’d fall off. This would be a great gift for lo who are learning their letters or for teachers bc the letters are a good size.
