I do like the tiles, but I feel a little cheated that the set I received had so many duplicate words. There may be 160 tiles in the set, but I didn't get 160 different tiles. Also, I wish they had left out the words for the numbers "one" through "ten" as nouns. Yes, they can be used as nouns, but for my purposes, the set would have been more useful if they had at least color-coded them as adjectives. I'm not sure if that would be an issue for others or not, but I ended up just removing the number word tiles (color-coded as nouns) because I was afraid it would just be too confusing for the young kids I am using them with. There are a few other word tiles that I thought were odd choices as well. "Smile" is one of the blue noun tiles. Sure, it's a noun; however, it's also commonly used as a verb, and I think a lot of kids might be confused by it. I left that one out, too, in addition to the tiles for "other" and "very," which were color-coded as adjectives. Once again, the tiles are not inaccurate, but of all the words they could have chosen to include, I wish they had chosen less ambiguous ones. Overall, I neither love nor hate the tiles. The ones I can use are good. Just beware that you may get duplicates and that some of the words included might be confusing for kids due to their common differing usages.

Many tiles to sort through to find those to be used in putting them together to make sentences. For children who can recognize/read common sight words. Makes my grandson laugh when he reads the sentences I put together. As he can read most of the words, is good practice for him learn grammar when he makes his own sentences. Highly recommended for children with beginning sight words.
