Highly recommend
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great product for preschool age kiddos (and up through 1st grade I would think). I am a preschool teacher and am always looking for ways to incorporate fine motor skills, sorting, counting, etc. This is perfect for all those things. And the kids really loved using the little tool to pick up the mini muffins and put them in the tin. Also it only took me only one time of showing them how to roll the dice for them to figure out the game of rolling the dice to figure out what color and how many of that color to gather. We have used it 3x's in the classroom and will continue to use it in the future.

Have you seen the Muffin Man?
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Perfect for my three year old granddaughter while we are on lockdown (Covid-19, not prison!) She can play independently and has created her own games, or, she plays with me or her six year old sister. She's been known to run inside my house, come upstairs, pull the game out, play it, put it away, and then head outside to ride her bike saying, "I just love my muffin game!"

Great for counting and colors
We don't use this yet for the actual intended purposes because our child is a little too young to understand the concept of thenfull game. However, she loves playing with it all the time. We use it to help her understand categorization, colors and counting. She also uses the little muffins as "food" sometimes in her play kitchen. It says it is for 3+ but as a 2.5 yr old we love it.

Learning fun
Opening the box at first with my 3 year old daughter she was so excited! I as well, with the sturdiness and weight of the little muffins. The muffins had a great weight to it making it super durable and I knew it was not cheaply made. The little purple tong it came with was a great way to teach her how to utilize her thumb and index finger coordination. The colors being primary appealed to both my daughter and nephew! ( would love it maybe possibly in more fun sprinkled tops like cupcakes next :) ) The instructions were easy to understand and gave multiple ways to incorporate learning Numbers and colors. I am trying to teach her to count to the numbers shown in the picture so this is definitely a great interactive game :)

Wonderful Learning Toy
This is a bright and colorful fun learning toy. The muffin pan is exceptionally durable and the rubber sides are nice making it easy to pick up. You actually feel like you could cook with it, it's that sturdy. My son is 4 and already knows is number but I thought it would be a great toy for him to learn how to add and subtract. Since my son also like the little cupcakes so we are also using this for his speech therapy; when he get a word right (sentence, whatever we might be workings on) he get a cupcake to put in the pan. We us the number insert cards so he knows how many cupcakes he needs to get making that his goal. He likes to try to beat me trying to get more muffins. I feel there are many different uses with this toy.

Perfect gift with a multitude of activity possibilities!
This product is amazing and I highly recommend it to parents with pre-k age kids and upwards. It's a great way to teach colors, color sorting and matching for my 2.5yr old. The design is so cute with the realistic muffin tin and the vibrant mini muffins. My son has also been using it as pretend play in his play kitchen. He loves using the mini tongs to pick the muffins up and it's easy to use with his little hands. There are so many activities to do using this toy and I can see it really growing with my child. He doesn't know his numbers yet, but it comes with a great instructional pamphlet with activity ideas for counting, addition/subtraction, etc that we will be using in the years to come.

Muffin Matchup Is A Must Have For All Preschool Students
I have used the mini muffin matchup game in both the public pre-k classroom setting as well as in my own homeschool setting. I love this game because it truly is a game that can grow with the child. For a 2-3 year old you can use this game to work on sorting colors. As a child processes into K4 you can use this as a counting game as well as matching. You can take the game aspect out as the child ages and use this for a grade school child. With my oldest daughter who is now 6 and in 1st grade we are still using the muffins for her on a daily basis as a math manipulative. She is a visual leaner and having the muffins in place truly helps with visualizing her problems. This is a high quality product. Made wonderful and has lasted us for two years now with no issues.
