Featured Review: Cluster Bells

Check out this featured review of the Cluster Bells from a very satisfied Discount School Supply customer from South Cheektowaga, New York:

"Awesome !"

Pros: Good Sound Quality, Engaging, Durable, Lasting Fun, Easy to Use

Best Uses: Special Needs, Creative Development, Entertainment

Review: "I belong to a non-professional singing group that sings throughout the year at senior facilities such as nursing homes, assisted living and at our local Veteran's Hospital and cancer facility. We have a heavy schedule during the holidays and find the seniors especially brighten up and take part when we sing the holiday songs. I purchased 6 of these cluster bells, and they were a smash hit with the seniors. They were easy to hold, had a great sound, and are very well made. The price was great too. My only negative remark is that when I went back a week later to order some more, they were sold out! Please let me know when they are back in stock, so I can order some more for the seniors love them, and so do I!"

Bottom Line: "Yes, I would recommend this to a friend."
Just shake the plastic handle and the 3 riveted-on bells will jingle, jangle, jingle. 3 large nickel cluster bells riveted on plastic handle. 6 1/2"L.

Featured Review: Weight Box

Check out this featured review of the Weight Box from a very satisfied Discount School Supply customer and Montessori preschool teacher from Benicia, CA:

"Just What I Wanted!"

Pros: Promotes Learning, Fun, Effective Demonstration, Easy To Use, Interactive

Best Uses: School, Home

Review: "I use this product in my Montessori preschool, and it works perfectly to teach about graduation of weights. The older children love to wear a blindfold, then match up the weighted pairs, and the younger children use the colored dots on the bottom of each pair to learn the different weights. It's just great."

Bottom Line: "Yes, I would recommend this to a friend."

Find the matching pairs in this wooden Weight Box. Place the weights in the tray with the color dots up, and children can choose the pairs by color. Or, place them in the tray color side down, and children can find the matching pairs by comparing weights - self-correcting when the dots on the bottom are compared! Includes 12 cylinders (6 pairs), each marked with a color dot. Tray measures 6 1/4" x 7 3/4". Each cylinder measures 2 1/4"H x 1 1/2"Dia.

Featured Review: Build and Play Mechanic Set

Feel like an expert builder and mechanic!

Check out this featured review of the Build and Play Mechanic Set from a very satisfied Discount School Supply customer and parent from Philadelphia, PA:

5-Star Review / 4.8-Star Overall

"One of our best purchases, ever!"

 

Pros: Easy To Assemble, Durable, Colorful, Fun, Sturdy, "Spans Age Groups"

Best Uses: Older Children, Young Children, Imaginative Play, Motor Skills Development

Review: I bought this for my 2 year-old son. He loved playing with the drill and taking the toys apart. My 4 year-old daughter loved putting the toys together. We were all impressed that it came with three drills and three screwdriver handles with interchangeable bits. Lots of kids can play at once! And, they can play in different ways. I then bought it for friends. Their 3 year-old son, and especially their 5 year-old son, loved it as well. I highly recommend it!

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

The Build and Play Mechanic Set lets children make and repair a gliding submarine, helicopter, boat, train, racing car and airplane. Animated wheels move parts on the vehicles: engine on the racing car, propeller on the plane, blades on the helicopter, smoke stacks on the train, periscope on the submarine and smoke stacks on the boat. Includes 129 sturdy plastic pieces to create vehicles and six tools. Wonderful for encouraging cooperative, interactive play and building self-confidence. Available in colors shown. Instruction diagrams are included, but parts can be interchanged for creative play. Allows children to create three battery-operated drills and three screwdrivers to use and share in classroom setting. Also includes nine bits. Requires 6 AA batteries (not included). Completed pieces range from a 6 3/4"W airplane to a 5 1/4" tall helicopter. Ages 3 years and up.
