Children loved crawling around and pushing Bernie’s Number Sorting Bus while playing imaginatively. They hopped the characters on and off the bus into their seats, prompting discussion around catching the bus and vehicles, as well as developing fine motor control.
The characters also introduce children to colours and numbers and adults can use this as a teaching aid, getting children thinking logically to match the dolls to the correct seats.
