I can understand the other reviewer's disappointment in not getting what she though she was purchasing but I have to disagree with her conclusions. Having each item pictured on a separate card makes these flashcards much more flexible. You can ask your child to "find all the fruits" or show your child the three fruit cards and ask what category they all belong to or just go through the cards one at a time and have your child name them. You can even make up simple go fish and memory games. While these cards clearly have educational value, the pictures are so attractive I have found that my toddlers and preschoolers simply like looking at them. I keep them in my diaper bag for quick impromptu activities while in waiting rooms.

Pretty good product, but a few minor issues. Overall though, it is good value for money.Pros:
1. Large, sturdy pics; more durable than most flashcards
2. Reclosable highly durable metal case
3. Large number of cards
Cons:
1. Many categories with comparatively few cards per category. I would have preferred the other way around (Not the end of the world because you can put 2 related categories together, e.g. Flying animals and Land animals to make a more general "animals" category).
2. Cards are slightly rectangular when putting them away it is a bit more frustrating than if they were square. Even if they were very rectangular it would be OK but these are just a little off from square-size so it is a bit annoying when putting them away.
3. Some categories were not represented here (e.g. they didn't make a Transportation or Vehicles category)
4. Some categories not well thought-out (e.g. Things You Wear on Your Head consisted solely of hats I couldn't see why they didn't consider sunglasses or earmuffs, for example, while "Sports equipment" consisted solely of balls and no bats or goals etc.)
Overall, it all comes down to what you're using it for. I still feel that despite its negatives it is pretty good value for money. I would sum up by saying the physical parts of the product are mostly excellent, while the thinking behind it could have been improved. It still works out for us, but only by combining 2 related categories together to make one bigger one. Fortunately, their categories are designed that you can do that with most of them.
Best Deals for Categories Language Cards
I bought these cards to help assist me with early intervention identification and categorization goals. These are really reasonable and of very good stock. They come with a tin to keep the cards safe. The cards are quite large and the pictures are really great. I also use these cards for language therapy with the elderly. I highly recommend these cards for building vocabulary and learning.Honest reviews on Categories Language Cards
The cards work great with my 3.5 year old son. The pictures are beautiful and seem like they can handle a decent amount of wear and tear. It comes with a nice metal case, and there are a good amount of cards to choose from.In my opinion there are too many varied categories, it would have been helpful to have less categories with more items (instead of vice versa). Also the codes on the corners are slightly distracting.
Overall a good value.
