Galt Toys, First Sticker Calendar, Educational Toy, Ages 3 Years Plus

Lots of value for money with this versatile educational and fun sticker set. The boards are strong, colourful and interesting enough to engage interest at different levels. The stickers are reusable and fo stick back on the sheets with no issues, other than lining them up. This is an educational toy you can use for leaning or let them just enjoy the stickers until they are ready to ask questions. I used to use sets like these in stages rather than try to force the learning all at once. You tend to find they will be interested in some areas but not all of it at the same time.At the moment my great nephew is interested in seasons so he loves the season cards and putting the stickers on. He’s shown interest in all of it but mostly it’s the times of days and seasons he’s giving his attention to. He’s a child that wants to learn all day long so he gets more enjoyment from toys like this. I recommend making a game of putting the stickers back on the sheets before it’s put away, because the boards lose their appeal if the stickers are lost.

This is a nice little set all in a box . You get 6 hard board and 6 sticker sheets.They cover the followingDay/NightTimes of the DayWeatherMonths of the YearDays of the WeekSeasons of the YearThere all bright and colourful , each board has a sticker set and some pics to match the stickers too. The stickers are easy to remove and my daughter enjoyed matching . My daughter didn't want them removed and just likes to go back and check them . We practice pointing at the stickers and her repeating . This is designed to help with fine motor skills,hand and eye coordination and helps with concentration skills.Spending time will help with language development, literacy and numeracy skills. This is a good set for the price and home learning

The ‘FIRST STICKER CALENDAR’ comes in a sealed cardboard box measuring around 21.5 cm square x 4.5 cm with the contents packed in a plastic-type bag on a raised plinth.Inside are 6 flat picture boards measuring 20 cm square with around 100 reusable, vinyl-type stickers across 6 sheets of similar size, entitled:~ Night and Day~ Times of the Day~ Days of the Week~ Months of the Year~ Seasons of the Year~ WeatherWith rounded edges to the good quality, shaped stickers, they are relatively easy to get a start on and remove from the backing sheets with some to place over the matching shaped area on the picture board. Others are provided to place where you like on the picture, although space is limited. Some are colour coordinated according to the background of both sticker & picture board.There are some assumptions, such as ‘Easter’ is in April...or specific activity times e.g. ‘Times of the Day’, where some activities & times may not be appropriate to all home situations e.g. ‘Walk the dog at 4 pm’, ‘Get ready for bed’ at 6 pm/’Bedtime’ at 7pm etc...which lets it down a little.Also, the titles of the sticker sheets are also removable but there is no obvious place for them on the picture boards, which is a shame, IMO.AGE GUIDE, from the box ~ ‘3 years +’From the ‘PLAY GUIDE’ sheet included (images below refer):‘KEY SKILLS DEVELOPED BY THIS TOY:~ FINE MOTOR SKILLS~ HAND/EYE CO-ORDINATION~ CONCENTRATION~ LANGUAGE DEVELOPMENT~ LITERACY SKILLS~ NUMERACY SKILLS~ OBSERVATIONAL SKILLS'Also currently available: FIRST STICKER PICTURES [20 images attached]

Ordered this for my grandsons and my daughter has provided the review:"The box has an impressive amount of sheets and boards inside, I was more impressed that the stickers are actually the vinyl type so can be taken off and put back on as many times as they like. It also means it is an activity which can be revisited time and again.I loved the conversations it started and hearing my sons views on the world - while doing the Day and Night board he told me “A fox only exists in the night”.He was able to take the stickers off easily and place them on the boards. We had a good giggle at putting the stickers in silly places, which was a lovely bonding experience.One of the downsides is that the calendar is rigid. It would have been nice to have the days of the week boxes empty, so I could use the stickers to ask my son what he would like to do each day, but instead each box has preplanned activities.In total this activity lasted approximately ten mins before he had had enough. The concept is good but it needs to be more immersive, with 'choices', for a child's attention to be captured for longer."

This is without a doubt a brilliant fun and educational toy for young minds. Cthulhu is what Galt does best. They combine education and fun seamlessly for children. This is a board game with reusable stickers that can be brought out time and time again. With over 100 reusable stickers this game teaches the children about the seasons, days of the week, and so much more.If you are looking for a fantastic board game to stimulate young minds I absolutely recommend and this is compact enough to be packed into the suitcase when going on holidays. Our little one is four and she has played endlessly with it with my daughter. I recommend and I shall be purchasing more for gifts.

This is usually a reliable brand, however the stickers are not remotely sticky and do not stay in place when applied to relevant boards. Unfortunately a complete waste of money.
