The return on investment for alphabet magnets is hard to beat. Cheap and versatile, they are a must-have for all parents of young children. (Use with supervision, of course.)
Alphabet magnets can be used for countless activities crossing multiple skill areas. Check out, Alphabet Magnet Learning Activities for Toddlers, to see how you can use magnets to teach your toddler everything from ABC’s to sorting to colors and more.
Just like Alphabet Puzzle Mats, a number of companies make alphabet magnets, but each set is a little different. Some have numbers, some have uppercase letters, some have lowercase letters, some have a combination. Thankfully, they are so inexpensive, buying more than one set is an option for almost any budget.
