Learning Resources Three Bear Family Sorting Bowls, Set of 6 Bowls, Assorted Colors, 6" in Diameter, Ages 4+

These colored bowls are so versatile! Color recognition and sorting! Even eating snacks that match the bowl color! I am able to find an activity for every theme I do in my daycare with these bowls. Definitely buy!

I know a lot of people are upset by how 'shallow' these bowls are but as an educator these bowls are perfect for children developing new skills such as sorting by color, number, shape, size. They are also very good for limiting the amount of fluid/sensory materials when playing in a home setting. My child is limited from using too much colored water or oatmeal by the size of the bowl and it helps to contain the size of the mess in my house. The shallowness of the bowls also helps with learning to use scoops and tweezers because it contains a small amount of the materials and allows for repetative practice.

We use these with identification of colors and sorting colors. Very durable. Great learning resource

They are as described. They get the job done. Nice colors.

these are just plastic sorting bowls, not really deep. Matches the other learning resource counting toys. My 22m old love to stack them and put them out and sort her farm toys in them by color. I would recommend buying them along with the sorter toys, especially for the little kids who are primarly sorting by color since it matches so well.

I use these with both my 4 year old and 2 year old, just in different ways. We only have the baby bear counters right now, but the other members of the "3 bear family" are on their way! It is a task in itself for my 2 year old to sort the bears out by color, but he loves doing it! I have my 4 year old sort them into their corresponding bowls for use with the pattern cards, just so it's easier to find when she needs them. Plus, I figure it's still a good skill to continually work on. I love that I don't really have to give them much guidance (not because I don't want to help) because it really seems to help build their self-esteem and self-confidence. They are so proud when they have finished, and have "done it all by themselves!"

Got these to use with the Learning Resources bears, because they are a perfect corresponding color match. They are great for sorting colors either by hand, with a spoon, or using tongs. We also use the bowls to scoop up the bears off the floor and pour them back into the container. Very durable as well. Simple but great little product.

Very sturdy and durable. They are a bit shallow but do their job for sorting activities my pre-k classroom.
