4.0 out of 5 stars Baby loves them!, September 30, 2008

I purchased these flash cards for my 14 month old baby, since she loves looking at books and pictures. The cards are nice quality, with bright images, and she actually sits and points to the images and waits for me to tell her the words. She will do this for about 20 minutes at a time, which is amazing to me for an energetic toddler. I would give them more stars, but some of the images are difficult to understand because of the quality of the illustrations. They are grainy and a bit amature looking -- the pumpkin and some others just don't really work. These would get 5 stars in my book if the illustrations were a little cleaner, or they used actual photographs of the items. But they are nice and the price is great.

4.0 out of 5 stars Flimsy First Word Flashcards, January 7, 2009

So, I bought these cards for my 18 month old who has a similar set she really enjoys. I am pretty disappointed with these. The cards are similar in weight and texture to regular playing cards. They can be easily bent, ripped and just all around destroyed. On the other hand, the pictures are cute and the words are clearly written. They may be appropriate for an older child, but definitely not my 18 month old.

These flash cards are great for the price. They are flimsy and easily bent, so you have to control them but they are still helping my 18-month old daughter. The pictures keep her focused and now she's starting to point at the pictures.
