good quality
Very happy with purchase. Good quality and very useful to help visually reinforce/teach daughter subtraction and addition. I use it in conjunction with "pop for addition and subtraction" but can be used with out. 10 penguins in 10 different colours. Think this will stay in our collection for a number of years as can be used for a variety of things (grouping by colours/addition/subtraction/multiplication etc.)

Great for KS1 Maths
I was recommended this product by a tutor on my PGCE Primary course. It is really great for helping children with counting, number bonds to ten and subtraction. You can choose to keep the Penguins in their colour set or I prefer to mix colours to show number sentences visually- for example 6 pink + 4 blue equals what, then turn the ice bar around is 4+6 the same ? I am a KS1 teacher and have found this really useful. Also for subtraction it is easy to count the ice cubes that no longer have penguins on them.

Not too cool for school
Good for disguising maths as playtime with my four year old.OK she occasionally makes it all about the play but there are intermittent flashes of learning. Our first session was ambitiously about adding to ten but we soon branched out into even and odd numbers (which we conceptualised by checking all the Penguins had dancing partners).A 'cool' little set with lots of potential for fun with integers.

penguins are of very good quality!
great product. good quality, penguins are kind of rubber like, more on the softer side.not hard plastic. they r cute and nice, good variety of colours , gender neutral. it would be gtrat if the instruction included some games to play with it, or a selection of tasks to do with different age group. it is also quiet pricey ,however if you know you will be using it a lot with your child or other kids, it is worth it. my son loves it, we are improvising with penguins , teaching maths in a fun way)

Love it!
My Reception class love these counting penguins. There are lots of different ways of using them so they are used all year round. Excellent for 1-1 correspondance. Can be used for adding, takeaway or even colour recognition. There are 10 strips of icebergs so more able children start to recognise multiples of 10. Also can be used as part of a winter display.
