These All About Me Family Counters are one of the favourite things to play with at the moment.
I am not sure if it is the colour, the quality or the sheer amount of people that has the appeal but something works!
Daisy enjoyed organising them into parties. Here is a circle of friends.
She made patterns and asked Rose, "What comes next?".
These counters are designed for making your family, patterning, sorting and counting but in our house everything is used for dramatic play.
With a little balancing, baby can sit on mama or papa's hip.
Yet another of the girls parties. Rose likes to grab a few people, have conversations and move them about the house.
Yes they do end up everywhere.
They will be venturing outside to play in the garden soon. We will keep you posted as to what they get up to.
I love these kids of counters. I always noticed my preschool class would rush to these first. I really like the people ones I may have to get a set for my niece and nephew.
It is hard to know what draws children to them. Bees to the honeypot!
