They were so excited when I got these for them. There is a good selection of letters & numbers & they have fun patterns on them too. When slightly wet they will stick to the bathtub & tiles which is fun. Also as they are foam pieces they are less likely to hold water to cause mildew.

A tip to clean them though, is to throw them in the washing machine in one of those zippered 'linen' bags. Just to give them that fresh feel again.

These foam letters and numbers are very cute. I love the designs on them. My son just started using them in the bath and he has a blast. I am guessing that he will probably chew through them since they are foam but there are so many that we will have them for a while. Even if we have to throw one out every once in a while. You also have to really read the description because these are only about an inch and a half tall. I bought them thinking they were the bigger ones. Oh well...they will do the job. :)

These appliques are smaller than the regular ones I found in Target by Sassy. There are two set of uppercase alphabets and numbers and also some extra letters that we use more often. thus it is easier for my 4-year-old son to spell some more complicated words. They are smaller, but since we have a small bath tub, I actually prefer the smaller size. Munchkin has a similar product with 84 pieces but only come in with two sets of lowercase alphabets and numbers. It looks like they coming from the same maneufacture... why don't they work together and put one set uppercase and one set of lowercase in each product?? just a suggestion.

Letters are small. I know it said 1.5 inches and I ordered them anyways. I should of went with the bigger letters. But it sticks well to the shower and it was inexpensive.

The letters were a lot smaller than they look in the picture. I am sure they will still be just as fun to play with, but was hoping for the price that they would be a little bigger.

What's pictured is what I ordered but not what I received. These show patterned pieces, mine are plain. They came in a bucket that they will not fit back into, which is dumb, but I guess since they're bath toys I wouldn't store them in the bucket anyway. Just a little lame that I'd have to puzzle piece them into the bucket if I wanted to store them there.
The V's and A's look really similar, minus a cut out for the As and the W's and M's are the same.

these aren't as cool as they look. We haven't used them in the bath yet so I can't say if they'll work there. I may return them... the picture is definitely enhanced. The pieces aren't that bright and cheery.

::EDIT:: we have used them in the bath, they stick fine. My son gets the 4s As and Vs mixed up because they are all very similar.

We previously had some letters like these but they were about twice as big. Those letters started getting a bit dirty with mildew, so we threw them out and bought these to replace them. These are much smaller than what we had before, so the shapes aren't as clear (the "v" and "a" are similar), but they still serve their purpose.

We have had these letters for about 2 years and they are still going strong. I make sure they are all completely dry before storing them so I don't have the same mildew issues as with the last set of letters. One thing I noticed, though, is that these little letters do not stay on the wall as long as the bigger letters I had. I assume it has something to do with surface area, or something. Before, I could leave the bigger foam letters stuck to the wall and they would stay all night and day until the next bath. With these smaller letters, they will fall off within a couple of hours.

If you are going to give these to smaller children who bite things (like my one-year-old), the letters will end up with permanent bite marks. I try to keep that to a minimum. So far, the bite marks have not prevented the letters from sticking to the wall, so it hasn't really been an issue.

Overall, my two kids really like sticking the letters all over the tub and my 3-year-old likes to spell simple words with them. I think anything that helps teach kids about letters is a great toy to have. Both of my children learned their ABC's before they hit 2 years old. These simple, colorful toys are great for exposing young kids to the alphabet.

The downfall I find is that they are a pain to clean up every time, so we only use them once in a while!

I reviewed many of these foam alphabet/numbers sets. This one is a great buy for the money and sticks well on tile and the bathtub sides. They dry out fast, too! Would definitely recommend!

At first I thought this wouldn't be age appropriate, as my little one is only 21 months, but he loves them! He 'glues' them all over the tub and walls and on the shower door...then he takes them allll down! lol...only thing is that I wish they were a little bigger. These are about 1 inch and half-ish. I dont let him have all 84 pieces or else I will have to pick them all up! I let him have the letters to spell his name and few more :) we write his dad messages, so when he gets home he will see them! :) Overall a great bath toy either for yourself or as a gift! Would definitely recommend this.

Beware! I paid $12.99 for this same product via Amazon on Nov 1, 2010. It is now listed for $29.99.
