Carson Dellosa Toddler Games

Carson Dellosa is really outdoing themselves with their toddler games!  These puzzles and matching games are great for the beginning learner and--most importantly--have a ton of cards in every pack to reduce monotony!

Alphabet Ants is a fun alphabet matching game that not only helps children learn the pairing of uppercase and lowercase letters, but also has an image that corresponds with the letter.  There are 26 2-piece puzzles in the box, so you can make the matching as easy or as difficult as you'd like--just by adding or subtracting the amount of 2-piece pairs you lay out.  A fun way to learn letter knowledge!

 How Do You Feel? is a great game not just for toddlers learning emotions, but also special needs children who may be struggling with interpersonal relationships.  Each 6-piece puzzle (and there's 5 of them) show a diverse population of children showing a diverse array of emotions.  It can be kept as simple as a regular 6-piece puzzle, or made into a multi-player game where children draw puzzle pieces to see who can complete their puzzle card first.  A really fun time for child and adult alike!

Find It! is probably the favorite out of these games with the staff at ABC & Toy Zone.  The box contains 4 game boards, or scenes, with 12 picture game cards for each scene.  Once again, this game can be simple (hand a child four game cards, have them spot all four on the game board) or more difficult (mix up all 48 game cards and have children take turns drawing a face down game card--who can find the most items on the game card without being tricked into seeing something that really isn't on the game board?) based on your creativity!  A really great visual discrimination game that has a million different game plays.
