MEROCO Montessori Language Miniatures Objects

I use this product for language development and letter sound identification. We construct an alphabet floor puzzle and then match the items’ beginning sound to each letter. The set is comprehensive, the kids love it, and the price simply can’t be bea.

Nice quality miniatures for letter tubs

Good little pieces, though the animals seem like the paint and features will rub off quickly. A, N, and B seemed short on items (one for A and N, I can’t remember for B) and I feel like some object choices confuse the early phonetic language learners (like Strawberry or Tree, so isolation of the S or T sounds). For the price, a good foundational start to build out a collection!

The choice of letters are horrible, there's no telling what is what... except for the bottle of booze (a cognac I believe) and the beer mug, those were obvious. This is a horrible set. I'm not sure how it even has 3.5 stars at the time of writing this. Pieces arrived in a sketch zip bag, some were damaged, these look like something from the bottom of a junk drawer (or worse).Do yourself a favor, take a hard pass on this one.

There are not objects for every letter and several of the vowel objects are not short vowels (ice cream, ufo, angel). I found no objects for A, F, J, K, Q, V, X or Y but there are 4 items for g, 5 for s and 2 each for w, h, e, b and l. The objects are fine, I just wish it was a complete set.

In this collection of items I was grateful for some new things to add to my Montessori letter boxes, but buyer beware- you will not have items for letters x, v, y, q, and n. Also- if you are trying to do true Montessori beginning letter sounds you will be disappointed by the amount of blends included in this mix. It was a good price for adding a few new objects, but still not helpful for filling all the boxes.

My daughter loves the animals. Some of the other objects are really small, so just be aware of that. I was nervous about the tiny food objects. I didn’t want my daughter to pretend to eat them and swallow / choke on them.
