What our experts think
Can you stop the Numberblocks® Express? This activity set is inspired by the favourite episode of the hit CBeebies show. Your child will love to have a go themselves to complete the range of maths challenges to stop the Train. Our testers enjoyed counting out the blocks and putting them on the correct carriage of the train, building matching towers and writing the numbers on the wipe clean cards. They also enjoyed using the train in their imaginative games after it was built, telling the story from the Numberblocks® episode. This activity set develops early counting skills, promotes addition and subtraction and encourages imaginative play.
