Transport Counters

I used these for a fun sorting activity. The children were engaged and sorted in different ways, which was the goal. It comes in a handy container so I don’t have to consider where to place it and it’s just eh right size for small hands to grip and arrange.

Perfect for sorting and counting.

I love this set of counting vehicles. I had thes in my old classroom but unfortunately my new school didn’t have them and weren’t going to purchase them for me. Amazon was the best place to get these and at the most reasonable price. The kids enjoyed using these for a variety of math activities and even a writing lesson. They are also very colorful and durable and can easily be washed.

I was looking for something that would help a 3-year-old learn to sort shapes, colors, sizes; learn to serialize items or organize them, count them, and so on. The fact that the items are a variety of vehicles was the frosting on the cake! The little guy loves them, and his 5-year-old brother does, too! Even the 1-year-old baby likes to pick them up and put them back in the container. (I only let him play with them when I am present, though he is not putting them in his mouth, and they are too big to swallow.) The 3-year-old has spent as much as an hour using them in ways listed above, and he even discovered that the lid of the container makes circles in the carpet, like cutting out cookies. For a child who ususally gives any toy about 15 minutes of his time, this container of vehicles is almost a miracle to behold.

My son loves counting and sorting these over and over.
