I've purchased several flash card packages from School Zone now, and they're just great! The cards are about the same card stock as playing cards, with one side shiny/laminated and the other side not. One thing I noted was that despite the "flimsiness" of the cards that other reviewers mentioned, these cards can take a beating - my two toddlers have bent, squashed, and thrown around these cards and amazingly none of them have torn! Even if they did, for less than $2 a pack, it's not a problem. We like to hole punch a single hole in the corner of the card and keep them together with one of those circular binder clips - it keeps the cards together and we can just toss the whole pack in the kid's backpacks/in the car for them to play with when we go on trips.I mistakenly purchased these cards thinking they would be simple flash cards of animals for my kids to learn. To my surprise, not only were these cards showing a picture of the animal with the word on the front, but the back includes a lot of good information about animals that is a little bit too advanced for my kids - but great for when they get older. The photos are not particularly cartoony and are easy for my preschoolers to identify. Even though my kids are a little to young to understand all the information on the back, they are enjoying identifying the animals on the front! Highly recommended!
The cards are great for PreK learning time. We can get through them in a few minutes. There are easy animals like: dogs & cats and more difficult animals that always keep my toddler stretched. Also, the back of the cards off extra information I can teach him later once he has mastered their names.
My 15-month-old loves these. However, they are pretty flimsy and thin. She bends them and rips them easily. The pictures are very colorful. We've had to replace the cards within a week of daily use, since she carries them everywhere. Worth it for the price, though.
I bought this set of flash cards when my son was not quite one year old. Now, two years later, the cards are still in great shape and he's a whiz when it comes to animals.We love the realistic illustrations (no cartoon-type drawings!) that show these animals in action. On the back are a variety of facts about each animal, so even when my son's attention span only allowed him to look at each card for a few seconds, I could quickly scan the back of the card for a quick animal tidbit to share with him. We especially like knowing what each animal likes to eat.The cards are constructed very well. They're about the thickness of a playing card, and while some have complained that they're flimsy and tear easily, we've found this set to hold up very well to the antics of a toddler. We also bring the set regularly to church, road trips, and airplanes, and they've stood the test of time and travel.I'm looking forward to purchasing other sets by this company. You really can't beat the price for an educational toy!
LOVE all of these cards!! They are amazing, great teaching tools and my daughter just loves to do her flash cards. They are a bit flimsy so I would not recommend if your child is still chewing, or does not do well with pages in books.... but honestly, for the price, you could just order another box no big deal!! My daughter is 2 and pulls out all of her cards almost every day.
Great variety of animals in this pack but the pictures are old school. I use with my infant and he gets bored easily as the colors are dull and pictures are not as fun as I expected. Great word cards though
My 2 year old lives flash cards of all kinds so we ordered him this set because he didn't have any with animals. We have a few other sets from the same company and they are nice flash cards. These include a really wide variety of animals and my son really enjoys playing with them.
Images of animals are pretty realistic compared to the other brands. A great variety of animals are represented from common pets like cats to farm animals like cows to zoo animal like zebras and to aquatic animals like the octopus. The name of each animal is listed with the image. Some facts about the animal are also listed on the back of each card.BTW, my packet came with the penguin and jaguar on front, not the dolphin pictured. This did not bother ma any.... The dolphin is still inside on a card, just is not on the external cover.
