Making fractions fun!
My 7 year old has been learning about fractions so these are perfect for her. They seem very well made, are colourful and easy to use. The fraction is written on the bottom of the cups, there are 1/3, ½, ¼ and 1 whole cup. We used them with water, my girls enjoyed working out how many of each cup they needed to use to fill the whole cup up, we will definitely use then next time we are cooking / baking.

A good way of teaching early fractions.
These rainbow fraction measuring cups are a really good way of teaching younger children fractions. They are in lovely bright colours, and have the fraction clearly written on the bottom of each one. They are very sturdy and have a nice wide handle which is designed for children to be able to grip and hold. Great for demonstrating fractions with rice.. sand.. coloured water etc.

A brilliant introduction to fractions
These are a great addition to our kitchen and bath room! My son who is 5 and particularly enjoyed using these fraction cups. He gets bored in the bath but has really enjoyed filling the 1/4 cup up with water and seeing how many he can fit into the other cups. My daughter has been more interested in filling them up with sugar and so I may try to incorporate them into our baking. They are brightly coloured and robust and clearly show the fractions on the bottom of each one. I can see us also taking them outside and using them in the sand pit as a brilliant introduction to fractions.
