I love playing this game with my 3-year old son! He loves playing with all the barn animals and counting all the chickens that we put in their “home”. A great way to improve kids counting skills!

To play this game you put all of the ice blocks in the square frame and place the penguin in the middle! You take turns hitting out ice blocks with the pick! Oliver has a blast just banging out all of the ice cubes and resetting it up :)

We spend hours sometimes playing with this set! My son loves to try different pieces together and make really big displays. The best part is watching the marble run through everything you just built, and making improvements along the way!

This cloud magnetic drawing board is so much fun! We take turns drawing patterns with the magnetic balls that pop up. It’s fun to push in all the little magnet balls when we are done (we usually race to see who can push the most in!)

These markers work really well for being mess free! It’s fun to sit at the table together and color in the pictures from this set. We always choose one to hang on the fridge.
