About this item

  • Choose the right number of puppies to match the number, and then balance them on the scale to see if you're right!
  • STEM with multiple levels of play: number recognition, counting and addition!
  • Includes 30 2-Sided Cards, 19 Puppies, 10 Numbers, Puppy Scale, Rules; no batteries required. Colors may vary.
  • Play with the puppies, numbers and scale even when you're not playing the game…weigh other toys and objects!
  • Because the scale is a toy, you must first level it with your hands, and when you let go it will stay if it's balanced, or one side will bottom out if not.

    Tips the Scales for Playful Math
    This simple but colorful educational game was a huge hit with my Growing Gamers homeschool co-op class, which has kids from age 4 up through 10. At first I thought it would be too simple for all but the youngest gamers, but I was surprised that all the kids were really drawn to it! They loved the adorable puppies and were intrigued by the weighted numbers. Game play is simple enough that they could play it themselves without any adult help or interaction, which is a big advantage. Even after playing the game by solving the cards, all the kids kept coming back to it and experimenting with it, trying different combinations of numbers or puppies. What a wonderfully playful way to work on number sense! Two of my students - who are 6 and 8 - specifically asked me to bring it again next week. That kind of "review" from the littlest gamers is the best!
