Disappointed

By Ursula K. Raphael "AstraDaemon of The Zombiep... - July 1, 2009

I bought these cards to expand on my son's basic recognition of money, and learning to tell time. While there is some educational value with these cards, they are not at all what I was hoping for.

The time cards are double-sided with both a traditional clock face and a digital clock face, which I thought was a plus. The problem I had is the lack of specific time increments. I wanted cards that showed the position of the hands hourly, half-hourly, and quarterly (ex: 6:00, 6:15, 6:30, and 6:45) for each hour of the day. These time cards inlcuded random increments such as 11:20 or 1:05.

I encountered a similar organization problem with the money cards. While the cards that show the front, back, and value of $.01, $.05, $.10, $.25, $.50, and $1.00, the rest of the cards were simply not very useful for establishing basic monetary value. For instance, there was a card with a combination of coins that added uo to $.79. I would rather have had cards showing that two... read more

Problem with the Analog Clock

By In California - March 6, 2012

Our problem with the "time" cards is that it is very difficult to distinguish the "big hand" from the "little hand". They're both about the same size. The end result is that our toddler gets confused. She has no problem telling where the little hand and big hands are on our family clock in the kitchen, but with these cards she just gets confused as to which hand is which.

So sadly, can't recommend these cards. Need to look elsewhere for our little one.

Good for Kids who Like a Challenge

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. The shiny side on the Time and Money Flash card set features pictures of the money in various denominations and analog clocks set at various times. The dull side features the monetary amount in numbers and words and digital clocks with the time written out in words. This pack also includes a parent teaching card and a game idea card.

These flash cards are a little more advanced than I expected, but are a great mental workout for our kids. Highly recommended.
