Learning Resources Smart Snacks Rainbow Color Cones

I thought I was ordering based on the picture shown of the “Shape Sorting” cupcakes. What I actually received was the “Color Cones” which are useless. I will be returning, but where are the “Shape Sorting” cupcakes in the pic??

Another therapist has this activity and I thought it was a great idea. I should have borrowed theirs before spending money on this. The kids get frustrated not being able to hold the cones by themselves and not being able to get the first scoop on the cone. They quickly move on to something else. It quickly frustrates them and does not hold their attention. Even my patients who love colors and numbers walk away.

Very sturdy plastic and my kiddo loves this!

I run a day care business out of my home and was looking for a set of ice cream play food for the kids to use since they're always pretending the playhouse is an ice cream stand. I ordered 2 sets and have been very happy with them. The kids in my current group range in age from 1 - 6 and they all enjoy playing with the ice cream toys. While the cones are smaller than I expected, I haven't heard a complaint from any of the kids using them. The scoops of ice cream are great props to use when teaching colors, counting skills, etc. The toys seems as though they'll last through years of daily use.

My students love anything to do with ice cream and these are great quality and very durable!

My three year old son loves the toy but he gets quite frustrated by the short length of the cone. Would suggest making the cones at least an inch longer. It is very frustrating and hard for him to hold the short cone stem and balance the ice cream scoops. The scoops don't fasten on very securely so between the ease with which they topple over and the short cone length, it is challenging. He loves ice cream and so loves the scoops and we have made up some fun games/imaginary play.

I really like these! I use them as a reward system. The reason I gave it four stars instead of five is because when stacking the ice cream scoops they easily tip over. However, I do not use all the scoops when giving rewards. The most you can stack without it tipping over is between 4 or 5 scoops.

I bought 2 packs of this and I got them to help teach my 22month old colours but even my 6 year old loves stacking these cones they are a great toy !

The children (my preschoolers) and my grandchildren as well ...love this item. They have oodles of fun playing with it. Stacking and scooping and learning the colours and talking about the flavours as well. Play is a child's work and they play well with this.

Product is great for pretend play. My daughter uses it to work on her counting, colors and sharing skills. The cone bases are made smaller than they used to be so getting the ice cream to stay on the cone is frustrating for her.

My son has been struggling with a couple of his colors, but the ice cream set has made leanring fun. What child doesn't enjoy ice cream? Not only does this set help to reinforce colors but it provides hours of imaginative play. My children enjoy pretending they own an ice cream stand serving friends and family different colors and flavors. Hours of ice cream fun with no mess to clean up! *product provided for review.

The Rainbow Color Cones come with 10 ice cream cones in a rainbow of colors and 2 cones. It's a delicious way to develop color identification, stacking skills, and hand-eye coordination. My boys love playing with these fun cones and it's been such a great way to work on colors with my 2 year old. It's also great to help develop his hand-eye coordination since it does take a little bit of work to stack the ice cream on top of each other so that it doesn't fall off. It's also great for pretend play and role play. My boys love making their ice cream cones and then pretend eating it! It's fun ice cream play that lasts all day...and never melts! **I received the product free of charge, but that in no way influenced my review.
