UlanikBalls in Cups Toddler Montessori Toys for 1 Year Old + Kids Preschool Wooden Matching Games for Learning Color Sorting and Counting

These beautifully colored cups and balls are like a magnet for our 21 month old grandson. They're all machined out of solid wood and seem much more resilient than they are. We've had this set for only a few weeks, and it immediately became a daily go-to toy for him. He went from randomly putting balls in cups to putting matching them with their colored cups within a few days. His fine motor skills using the spoon to put the balls in cups has also improved, although the spoon is much more clunky than it probably needs to be. He likes to stack the cups, although they aren't really designed to stack well and tend to lean after 3 or 4 are stackedThe only downsides are that there are many pieces, with 12 cups, 12 balls, the bowl, spoon and carrier tray, so it requires regular monitoring to make sure all the pieces are still present. The balls are also very hard, so if your child likes to throw things, they could become hazardous projectiles. They are nearly exactly the same size as the colored ping-pong balls we've had for years, so they can be mis-identified until you pick them up.

This is a high quality wooden toy! My toddler loves it. Lots of uses — working on colors, matches, and fine motor skills! Highly recommend for parents wanting open ended learning toys that will last a long time!

We got these last weekend and my kids (and their friends) are loving them so much! I love the variety of colors and there is even a QR code with ideas of how to play. My kids have loved inventing their own play and also simply using the spoon to move the balls around from the cups to the bowl and back. The spoon holds the balls perfectly which makes it the perfect holder for moving the balls around. The wood is good quality and smooth. Definitely recommend!

I bought these for my four month old son, he’s now 14 months and still loves this toy. Even if he can’t match the colors yet, it’s a great way to keep him entertained. The item is durable, educational, and holds great value for the price its at.

Get them. So versatile and I love them even as an adult. My big kids do too! It’s helped my 1 year old learn colors and she sorts them by herself now. Also, well made!

This set is great quality and colorful palette. Definitely one of my granddaughters favorite toys. Provides hours of creative play.

This toy is such amazing quality! There are so many ways to use it for learning and playing. My toddler loves playing with it. It’s used daily.

Have had this product for about 6 months and it holds up! I got the bigger size set because of my child's age and it's been perfect! She was around 9 months at the time of purchase. I started with just a few balls and cups out and have been slowly increasing and changing what's out as her interests and skills change. For a while I just had the balls out and a coffee can with a hole cut in the top. It continues to hold her attention and grow with her! The materials themselves are holding up pretty well! The cups that have been out the longest have some fading along the edges but not bad, and despite months of being played with roughly there are no major cracks, dents, or breaks! Such a good choice!
