My 3 year old loves this set! It’s very well made, and educational as well. He’s figured out how to balance but enjoys playing with the fish on their own. It has a nice container to store the fish in when done. This toy keeps him occupied for 30-60 min at a time, so it’s a winner in my book! The price is also very reasonable for this product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I homeschool my kids and this is the funnest accessory/toy in my arsenal. They love weighing things and this is so colorful and just perfect to hold my kids short attention span! It’s very easy to set up, it does come with some smaller fishies so be mindful of that, but overall it’s a great learning toy.
It’s pretty good but 2 things could be better: 1. The lid has to go on in a specific way that is difficult for toddlers to do themselves which of course they want to do 2. My toddler wants to put all the fish on the scales and the trays are not big enough Otherwise my toddler likes it a lot!
Super cute and educational toy! It’s open ended as well since my daughter started playing with the fishes and we’ll eventually move onto learning about weight with it! Love that it grows with your child with the play guide

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I fell in love with the penguin math balance educational game and I'm sure my kids did too. I love how easy it is to set up and I love the fact that even though we are playing we are also learning as well. It is easy for them to understand and they are learning math as well.

My 7 year old asked if I could get her a balance scale, and I wasn't going to say no to an educational toy request (lol). It's not like this scale is super accurate or anything but it gets the point across of how to balance things of different weights and it comes with little weighted fish to use. Also, it comes with a container for the weighted fish! A very pleasant surprise.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter has always been fascinated with scales. She would go in our bathroom and put her toys on our scale to see how much they weigh. She even goes to my mother in laws and plays with her balancing scale. So when I saw this adorable penguin balancing scale, I knew she would be thrilled! This whole set is adorable! The penguin scale is cute and very durable. It comes with a variety of fish in different sizes, shapes, and weights. Even a few mystery creatures where you have to figure out their weight. My daughters have so much fun seeing how they can balance the scale or see which fish are bigger than the other. It's so cute! I especially love that the base doubles as a storage compartment for the fish. It also comes with little challenge booklets that fit perfectly in the back of the penguin. The penguins head also moves depending on which side is heavier. I love it and so do my kids! It's a fun and educational toy. Definitely recommend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] What a fun way to introduce math. I really appreciate the construction of this toy because it's wood and a heavy duty plastic. The fish and sea creatures are made of a quality resin type material and it's just very well made.

Adorable early math skills

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Learning new kinds of math can be scary for kids so having this adorable math balancing penguin is a huge help. Each fish is weighted so you can combine different amounts to balance out to certain numbers which makes learning about weight and measuring fun and hands on. It also helps with addition and subtraction skills and understanding them in a way they can touch. We have also been using the pieces for basic multiplication and division skills as well. The whole thing is very well made. It looks really cute and helps make math fun. There is a slot in the back that holds the pamphlets with various instructions so they don't get lost and all of the fish fit in the base. It keeps things tidy as well as keeping them from getting lost. The arms move a a good speed so they do not flip items too quickly but move freely when weigh is added. The penguins face has a little arrow so they can tell if it is balanced as well, not just by height of the arms which helps the younger kids.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This penguin math balance set is great for ages 3 and up. It's a good math teaching tool for addition and subtracting. It can also serve as a good tool when learning about balance and weight. It's very lightweight and easy to travel with or take on the go. The penguin itself is wood and the balancing scale and trays are plastic along with the storage container to hold the 30 sea creature pieces. You get 3 different playbooks for developmental levels that can be stored behind the penguin inside of the slot. The penguins head tilts when the balancing tray moves. This is great for learning and can make it fun. I recommend it.
