Delight in the perfect blend of learning and play with Learning Resources Counting Cookies, an innovative educational toy that transforms basic number concepts into a hands-on adventure for young minds. This thoughtfully designed set features 11 realistic-looking chocolate chip cookies that serve as engaging math manipulatives for children 18 months and older. Each cookie in this collection has been freshly redesigned with remarkable attention to detail, making them almost irresistibly realistic. The clever educational design incorporates two key features: each cookie displays a clear number (0-10) on its bottom side, while the top showcases the corresponding number of raised chocolate chips. This ingenious design allows children to physically count the chips before flipping the cookie over to confirm the number, creating a natural self-checking learning system that builds confidence and independence. The included sturdy plastic cookie jar serves multiple purposes beyond simple storage. Its bright blue color and Cookie Monster-reminiscent appearance immediately captures children's attention, while the easy-open lid is perfectly designed for little hands to master. The jar becomes an engaging element of play as children practice placing cookies inside and taking them out—activities that naturally strengthen fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination.
