Product Description

The Uncle Goose Braille ABC Blocks with Sign Language features the American Sign Language, Braille, both capital and lowercase letters, and numbers. This 2009 set edition includes 28 wood-blocks colored with non-toxic, child-safe inks. It is an exceptional children's educational toy. Great for families with visually-impaired members. The blocks are also good for teaching sign language to all young children in general. The European style and deeply grooved fonts especially make it easy for little fingers to trace and learn the shape of the letters of the alphabet. As square wooden blocks, they are good for open-ended block play. Click on the "Images" tab to view all sides.

Manufacturer note: This block set is not a teething toy. It should not be given to teething children without proper supervision.

Benefits

Toy blocks like Uncle Goose Braille ABC w/ Sign Language are superb educational toys. These in particular help develop kids creativity as well as help children to learn the alphabet, numbers, and sign language.

Also, building blocks have been shown to significantly increase language development. A recent study reported in the October 2007 issue of Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine finds a strong association between playing with building blocks and a significant increase in language scores in young children. On average, kids who played with blocks scored 15 percent higher on their language assessment than those who did not. Researchers speculate that such a measurable increase is partly due to creative block play replacing other time spent in activities that do not encourage language development, such as watching television. They also maintain that child and parent playing together remains the strongest way of promoting children's development.

Made Of / Made In

Uncle Goose Braille ABC w/ Sign Language are proudly made in the U.S.A. Each wooden block is a 1 3/4" square, made from basswood, brightly colored with child-safe inks, and hand-crafted with attention to detail.

MY DAUGTHER GOT THESE IN HER EASTER BASKET AND SHE CARRIES THEM ALL OVER THE PLACE. I REALLY LIKE THAT THEY HAVE #'S, LETTERS, AND PICS ON THEM. I PLAN ON GETTING MORE OF THE BLOCK SETS FOR FUTURE HOLIDAYS AND BIRTHDAYS. WE HAVE A LOT OF FUN WITH THEM. I THINK MY ONLY COMPLAINT IS THAT THEY DONT COME WITH A BOX OR A CONTAINER TO STORE IN. WE ARE CURRENTLY STACKING THEM BUT MY DAUGHTER NORMALLY ENDS UP PLAYING WITH THEM ALL OVER AGAIN
