FAQs

What age group are these Numberblocks figures suitable for?

These figures are generally suitable for children aged 3 years and up, as they are designed for small hands and help develop early math concepts.

Can I get Numberblocks figures for numbers higher than five?

Yes, Learning Resources often offers additional sets that include higher Numberblocks characters. Check the official Learning Resources website or retailers for other available sets.

Are the figures durable for rough play?

The figures are made from durable plastic designed to withstand typical play by young children. However, extreme force or misuse could still cause damage.

Are the figures safe for my child?

Troubleshooting

Figures get dirty or sticky.

Wipe figures down with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap, then rinse with a clean, damp cloth and air dry completely.

Child quickly loses interest.

Introduce new play scenarios, such as recreating specific Numberblocks episodes, combining them with other toys, or using them in a simple counting game. Encourage storytelling.

Figure does not stand upright on its own.

Ensure the playing surface is flat and even. While designed to stand, minor irregularities on the surface can sometimes affect stability. Check the base of the figure for any debris.

A figure appears to be damaged (e.g., chipped, broken).

Inspect the damage. If it presents a safety hazard (sharp edges, small detached parts), discontinue use immediately. For quality concerns, contact Learning Resources customer service.
