From the Manufacturer
Magnetic shapes, letters, and numbers help students build important basic skills in readiness, reading, and math. Children can make designs, match upper and lowercase letters, form words, build short sentences, and even create simple equations. The desk-sized magnetic board is ideal for individual and center use.

Customer Reviews

Great idea, holes in corners make patterns difficult
Love the magnetic board for traveling. The shapes are fun and include a good variety: arcs, bars, equilateral and scalene triangles, half circles, as well as your usuals. The weird rope idea is poorly done, though. A rope handle mounted at the top would have been much more useful and wouldn't take away board space. The holes in the board aren't terribly annoying if you're using letters or numbers, but it can get in the way when using shapes.

Better Off with Something Else
This product is good quality and works for what it is supposed to do. It is in fact magnetic, it is sturdy and my daughter (19 months) loves it. She can carry it by the rope; which I agree is strangely designed to take up space on the board, a top mounted rope would be just as good, if not better. However, the board is not double sided, which would have been nice. It is about the same size as a standard 'college' marker board and in my opinion, if you can get a magnetic 'college' marker/message board for half the price, why would you spend this money? A good product, but if I were doing it again, I would get a less expensive board. The other educational insights products make a great addition to this board.
