Great for stem learning at home
If you’re like me and have 2 toddlers. This is perfect for early education learning or just challenging their minds to think more creatively.Truly is all the value you need.

Great Homeschooling Resource
This is such a great resource we had added to our homeschooling area. My girls are learning while building creative, colorful little images. Definitely worth the money & a great educational tool.

Love this!
We are really loving this set! There are few aspects of it that could be a little bit better, but overall we are really happy with it and my K2 crew are so happy and having so much fun with the activities! I do wish that the book was a little bit bigger and more robust, printed in a larger size on a spiral so that it’s durability would be better would be amazing. Some sort of organization system to store all of these mini cubes would be so great. I plan on getting a snackle box to keep all the colors separate in. It is a really fun way to have a fun, differentiated activity available. It is a little bit too big to completely fit neatly within a photo box without being completely mixed up and still close properly, but it would make a great work then in a slightly larger photo case. The soft foam of the cubes.. they aren’t the hard plastic that I’m used to.. really help the cubes fit into the frame better, but also lead to the cubes deforming and getting finger/nail marks really easily. I would love a way to swap cubes out, especially for those sorts of block systems that have connected number rods. Either that, or honestly if it’s cute would be so great, especially for our kiddos with more difficulties with the really small pieces. Overall I’m happy with my purchase and would totally get again!!

Perfect Independent Play Project- (5.5 yo)
I bought this for a summer vacation independent play/activity option for my 5.5 yo. They love doing crafts and art projects, and I explained how to read a grid with a letter and number, and they were OFF.It’s been an obsession here, and it’s let me cook and clean while they self educate without a screen ðThe foam pieces sometimes don’t “click in” or lay flat which frustrates them, but not a huge deal. Definitely not a travel toy, the pieces fly out of moved, so plan on doing this at a kitchen table only.Confidence building, and blows their mind when you teach them that pixels are what quilts, cross stitch and images on screens are made up of!

Great Learning Activity
Kids loved this activity as an additional hands on learning tool.
Ben Hintz –
Cute but poorly quality.
Very fun concept but the foam blocks that are placed in the grid are cut unevenly in size. They are either cut too small so they sit poorly or almost too large and bulge out unevenly.

Great Fine Motor & visual motor activity
This has different levels of easy to hard. So many things can be worked on when playing this fun activity. Bilateral hand coordination, target fine motor skills, visual motor skills, eye/hand coordination, color sorting and so on. The kids enjoy copying the pictures provided along with creating their own pictures.

Pros & Cons to Foam Pixels Cubes
This is a great teaching tool. The instruction manual has a good variety & quantity of art challenges to make. If your child needs help with spacial perception or doesn’t have experience following similar instructions, you may need to work some of the challenges together.I was expecting the pixel cubes to be made out of hard plastic. They are actually made out of a fairly dense foam. The pixels fit fairly snugly into their spaces on the tray. Hard plastic pieces might be easier to place in the board, but they would also fall or get knocked out easier. The foam is easy to accidentally brush onto the floor, because it is so lightweight. Foam is also very quiet. If they were hard plastic, my kids would shake & mix them just to make noise.

Compré este artÃculo como regalo sorpresa de navidad, a mi hijo le gustó. Le gusta realizar pixel art en el cuaderno cuadriculado, manipular piezas y pensé que serÃa un buen regalo. Viene con todo lo que explica en la caja, trae un libro con varios desafÃos de distintos niveles primero con el dibujo, luego se sustituye por números y al final ya ubicando en la cuadrÃcula con números (adjunto imágenes). Es un excelente regalo para desarrollar la ubicación espacial, interpretar códigos, cumple al 100% con su categorÃa de Stem.El único detalle que vi fue que los cubos son de foami (si es muy resistente), pero pensé que eran de plástico duro, tengo las uñas largas y se quedan marcadas en el foami, no es impedimento para nada ni perjudica en nada. A mà hijo no le llamó mucho la atención al principio porque se esperaba que fueran magnetos en forma de cubo (fue regalo sorpresa, él no lo pidió igual lo usa para hacer diseños que no vienen en el libro).En resumen lo recomiendo mucho para desarrollar habilidades en sus niños, fue una buena compra.

Acquistato articolo con confezione rotta, quindi ad un prezzo superagevolato. Bel gioco, stimolante e ben ideato, peccato per i cubetti, fatti in materiale alla lunga deperibile.Per il costo pieno dell’articolo, meritavano di essere fatti di legno o in plastica.

Nice toy for travels and at home. The booklet helps. The cubes are very small for under 3s so have to be extremely careful.
