We seem to have acquired a set of Eric Carle Number Flash Cards. I'm not sure where we got the set, but our little boy had his third birthday in early October and that's probably the point of origin. In any case, I use them with him all the time. He now recognizes all the numbers, but has a bit of trouble with the 6 and 9 and with the 7 and 1. He'll get onto it. He can also count out the dots and I suspect, before long, will be able to read the writing. Smart kid! Plus he's gotten used to the animal drawings and can count the numbers of animals. I'm surprised how fast he picked all this up, and he seems to enjoy it as a little game. I'd have to say it's a well designed educational toy.
