This is a great product for the kindergarten student learning to read. Our son enjoys creating words and replacing letters to create new words.

These are awesome letters...and not your typical magnetic refrigerator ones either. There is no magnet to be swallowed or choked on. I would have thought a bit more letters would come in the pack, but that's alright - we'll just get another one.

Great fun, just don't get them wet by Melanie B (MA United States)

As other reviewers have noted, these otherwise sturdy wooden magnets don't take well to water. They lasted almost two years for us in good condition until my daughter left them outside overnight and they got wet. Then the paper peeled off and now they are unsightly. I don't understand why the color has to be printed on paper instead of painted directly onto the wood. If they were painted instead of paper, they would last for so much longer. These are still better than the plastic alternative, however.

I bought one box for each of my 4 year old (twins). We keep them on the frige and the enjoy learning how to spell words and learning the upper and lower case letters. Others said they start to delaminate, but I haven't seen this. I wouldn't recommend this for children that still put things in their mouth b/c they would start to delaminate.

Not for younger toddlers, but mostly what I was looking for! by Sopranna (Illinois)

As the big yellow caution box clearly states, it's not for kids who are still putting things in their mouths and chewing (or under 3). These are not made for that kind of durability. My son is 2, but since he is past that phase, he loves these magnets. He's already recognizing some letters, and really enjoys playing with these around the fridge. We spell out short words, sing the alphabet song, and play word and letter games with them. They are quite thin, which is a problem since they slide under the fridge so easily and get lost in other places, but so far, that's the only issue we've had.
