Stacking Cups

I love these stacking cups from Green Toys! They come in the original packaging, a presentable brown box, making it nice for gift giving. I did not, however, buy them as a gift. We got the cups for our 4 month old son after playing with them at his daycare. They make a great toy for playing with together. I usually stack them up into the roughly 18 in tower and he laughs as he knocks them down. They also fit inside each other in a compact 6 in stack, making it an easy toy to store away. I believe these toys will be used for awhile. They are made of a thick, durable plastic and can hold water for use at bath time. I also plan on using them when it's time to learn how to count as they are numbered on both the inside and bottom of each cup.

We got these for our twins when they were about six months old and they have loved playing with them. When we first got them, the kids liked to chew on them. Nothing fancy I know, but they are made of a good quality plastic that can stand up to abuse. As they got older, there were a bunch of ways they liked to play with them: you can either nest them together or stack them like the picture. Although the kids can't stack them yet, they love to knock over the tall towers I made for them. Since they are cups, they were also a fun bath toy.I can also see all the possibilities going forward. As the description notes, the cups are volumetrically accurate (meaning if you pour the one cup and the two cup together, they will fill the three cup). Given how much the kids love to play in the bath with them, I think they will be a good intro to math.Finally, they are made of recycled plastic, a feature that appeals to parents even if the kids could care less.

We love these stacking cups! The packaging is high quality recyclable cardboard. I noticed on the side of the packaging it explains that each cup’s volume correlates with the cup’s number! For example to fill cup 4 and cup 2 with water equals the volume of cup 6 and so on! I’m always looking for real world learning applications for my kiddos so that was a very pleasant surprise. The cups are very durable plastic. They stack easily and nest beautifully. My 9 month old plays with the cups both in and out of the tub. My 5 year old likes experimenting with the simple math I mentioned above. Very happy with my purchase and look forward to other products from Green Toys.

This is a fantastic device for kids of all ages. We bought this for my daughter when she was about 5-6 months old and she loved it for a couple years. I like these better than the regular "circular" for lack of a better definition because there is more learning needed to stack them properly. Along with the mega-blocks and toys like this she has become extremely above her age level for anything involving gross motor skills. She is now 3.7 and she can draw better than most of the kids in her pre-school. She can almost write her name and I think a lot of it has to do with getting these type of basic toys right from the get go. Highly recommend this product and especially over some of the other stackable cup toys.You can stack them or just put them together. A great product and well worth the money.

I bought a water table for my nieces for summer, and I ordered these stacking cups to go in it. I’m really impressed with the quality; these are sturdy and very well made! Also, the volume of the cups promote Math skills. You can fill the number two and the number three cups, and the contents fill the number five cup, etc. The girls love them, and as adults, we were pretty entertained as well. I didn’t expect them to be as big or as nice as they are. Super happy! I foresee years of play with a great product.

These cups are pretty sturdy, large, and can be re-purposed as bath toys. They are not super easy to stack - it can be tricky for me to get the balance right as the lips to adjoin the cups are very small and don't lock in strongly. I think it will be quite some time before my 11-month old daughter will have the muscle control and hand/eye coordination to get them to line them up perfectly on her own.That said, they are a fun parent/child playing together toy at this age (she loves knocking the tower down after I build it, and I like some of the other reviewers' ideas about how to teach math with stacking cups). When alone, my daughter likes picking up individual cups and sucking on them. For an older child, these provide a challenging stacking option. For a younger child, they provide several interactive options for parent and child to play together, and are fun to explore even without parents.

These bad boys rock! I thought they were an interesting twist to the good ol' stacking rings toys. I was never a fan of the rings because they took up so much space. These are more compact for storage. When you turn them upside down, you can stack them up really high. Well, high enough for a toddler. I also found out that if you fill them with water, they can teach you math. For instance, the water in the #1 and #2 cups equals the amount the #3 cup will hold and so on. I like them because they are made from recycled milk jugs, they're made in the USA and they are eco-friendly. My baby loves them. She probably won't be stacking them for a while, but at the very least, they'll be safe for her to put in her mouth, and she'll enjoy banging them around on things.

My daughter loves these stacking cups. I got them for her when she turned one and it's been a couple of months and she is always playing with them. She loves building towers with them and figuring out how to fit them inside each other. We've even used them in the bath so she can use them as pouring cups. I love that these aren't filled with nasty toxic chemicals like other brands. I almost bought the Kid-O cups because of the colors but they had pointy edges (that I don't want to inevitably step on) and I was concerned about possible toxic chemicals in their plastics. I'm glad I got these instead. I love Green Toys and have since purchased other toys from them that I like equally as well. You won't be disappointed!
