Discovery Toys Measure UP! Cups | Educational Stacking & Nesting 12 Piece Numbered Set| Kid-Powered Learning | STEM Toy Early Math Childhood Development 12 Months and Up

This is a great set that has held up well. Its a versatile toy/tool that we have used for a few years now. Some of my favorite features are the multiple representations of the numbers as well as the fact that the amounts are relative to each other.

My kid loves this. Stacks em, knocks em and arranges color wise towers etc. Go for it.

I buy these for baby shower gifts all the time.

We received these as a gift about two years ago, and these are probably the best toy we own. Our youngest has loved playing with these as soon as she could sit up and reach for toys, and our oldest (2yr) loves building towers and knocking them down and playing in the water with them, and he loves making impressions using the animal designs on the bottom in clay and silly putty. (Im sure they would also be great as beach toys). I also love that they nest which makes storage easy. These are very sturdy cups. The only reason why I gave them 4 stars is because, as other reviewers have mentioned, the numbers on the sides are rubbing off which is an issue since the printed numbers, etc. are an educational feature. I wish they were actually stamped/etched into the plastic. But ultimately, for our purposes, my kids dont care about whats printed on the sides - they just enjoy the mechanics of playing with them and thats what matters. I wouldnt hesitate giving these as a baby gift.

Great product for fine motor skills and practicing colors.

I used to sell these toys, and this set was played with for a good five years. They are great for the obvious stacking and water/sand play. But they can be used to teach pattern recognition, counting (the number of dots match the number on the side), and math because they are volumetricly correct. So if you fill the 1 and 3 cups, they will exactly fill the 4 cup. You can also teach how to tell time by the positioning of the dots in the circle on the side, but most people have digital clocks these days. There may be other versions out there that are as versatile, but when our grandson turned one, I bought him these.

timeliness toy....got this for my daughter 35 years ago...gave this to my granddaughter this year. :o)

We had discovery toys when my kids were little, and now that the grandkids are arriving, we got them a set. Fantastic staking cups, the young ones will play for hours.

Discovery Toys are truly the greatest collection of developmentally appropriate and intellectually stimulating toys on the market. Fun and Educational!
