Alphabet Mystery Box for Kids – 26 Miniature Object Learning Toys with Double-Sided Letter Board

My grandson absolutely loves the Mystery Box game. Having hands-on objects makes all the difference!

My daycare kids love this game, mainly my own son and won’t leave me alone about playing. I should have purchased the bigger size option. I’m pretty sure they are using memory for placement and not memory for what letter it starts with.

Beware for other products that claim to be this one. The toys in this one are larger and better made. Except for the icecream cone, it doesn’t stay together. My 3 year old granddaughter absolutely loves this. It’s a little advanced but she wants to learn.

I LOVE this !! I purchased this for my two year old daughter as a Christmas present . It’s a good size . The pieces could be played with separately from the puzzle of coarse .. she knows her abc and can point out each letter as well as the sound each letter makes so this will be great to help with her reading and spelling even more !! Super educational and fun ontop of that !! Definitely worth the price !

My kinder students love this as a station! The mystery box makes it extra fun and engaging for them! Would be great for homeschool and for a small group too! Great value for the engagement!

This Alphabet Mystery Box is a great way for young children to learn and reinforce letter and sound recognition. A parent will need to be sure that all the objects are properly identified in order for it to work. Or maybe at first be flexible and accept all possible answers as long as the child can justify the object placement. Is it an alligator (A) or a crocodile (C)? Is it a bunny (B) or a rabbit (R)? Etc. As a former 1st grade teacher I can see how the the learning opportunities abound but would caution to take it slow and keep the learning fun. I would have loved to of had this as part of a learning center when I was teaching!

Great quality! The board is double sided, capital letters on one side and lowercase on the other. It is cardboard but it is thick and sturdy and folds up into a square. The colors are bright. The box is also sturdy cardboard and has a stiff felt covering the grab hole. The pieces are all good quality. There are 2 objects for each letter. Most of the objects are fairly common and easily recognizable. There are 2 objects that had me stumped at first. There is one that looks like a mountain that they used to represent an island for letter "i". There is also a puzzle piece that they used for letter "j" as in jigsaw. My 3 year old was confused by these because he also identified them as mountain and puzzle piece. It does comes with a paper that has a few suggested ways to play and also has a list of objects and what letter they go with, which is how I figured out the island and jigsaw thing. Overall, this is a great quality product and is a really fun way to teach the alphabet and letter sounds.

I compared this product to ones that were similar, and I'm glad I got this one. I like how the board has two sides; one with upper case letters and one with lower case letters. I also like that the game comes with 52 pieces instead of only 26. The board is colorful and all of the contents are mostly well made. The alphabet pieces are made from a variety of materials: plastic, rubber, fabric with stuffing, etc; which is good for tactile sensory exploration. My son and daycare kids are just at the age where they are ready to connect letters to beginning sounds. They haven't gotten the hang of it yet, but they are having fun finding objects in the mystery box! They think it is so cool!

This is an amazing idea. The board is big and double sided with uppercase on one side and lowercase on the other signs. There are lots of pieces in the mystery box. Some letters have one match while others have 2 to 3 items that match that letter. As a bonus, you now have a mystery box that you can play "feel, and guess the object" with. This gets my five-year-old to practice his letter sounds, but he thinks he's just having a family game night. My 2.5 year old was interested in taking things from the box and took a couple of turns placing them on letters, but then walked away. My five-year-old finished the whole game and wants to play again when Daddy gets home.The included items were:apple, alligator, almond, bat, banana, carrot, camera, duck, dinosaur, egg, elephant, fish, fork, glasses, grapes, hat, hippo, ice cream, jam, key, kiwi, lettuce, lemon, milk, mushroom, necklace, orange, onion, peanut, puzzle piece, pizza, queen, question mark, rhino, rock, rabbit, strawberry, sandwich, telephone, tooth, umbrella, unicorn, violin, vase, watermelon, whistle, xylophone, x-ray, yo-yo, yogurt, zebra, zipper.

This is a fun activity for preschool and kindergarten age. I agree that 3+ is the appropriate age, since some of the objects could present a choking hazard.The box is sturdy with soft felt covering the hole, so kids can't try to see what they're grabbing. My kids love the mystery element and are excited to see what they'll grab next. The box is a nice, big size and easily holds all the included objects. A list of the objects and their letters that they go with is included, which was helpful in determining that the figurine was a queen for Q, and that rabbit goes with R, so it's not B for bunny. A couple of the objects were harder to grab from the bottom, such as the X-ray card and the key, because they're flat compared to the other objects.One thing that may cause confusion is the order of the alphabet letters. Instead of going left to right each row, they follow a path that zigzags side to side, so the letters go left to right, then right to left, etc. I do like that the board is double sided with uppercase letters on one side and lowercase on the other, so kids can practice uppercase and lowercase separately.Overall, it's a fun activity for kids to practice phonics and alphabet letters.

The Alphabet Mystery Box is a fun way to get children excited about learning. The variety of pieces that come with this kit make this a valuable learning tool.

Great

This is a good educational resource for preschoolers and up. It includes a mystery box and a double-sided alphabet board, 26 alphabet objects, and a user guide. The alphabet board is colorful and the text is clear, so children can easily recognize the alphabet. It is a good tactile activity as well as for learning beginning sounds. Some of the objects in this set are of good quality and some of them are just ok.Please Note: It includes small pieces so children under 5 need adult supervision as it may be a choking hazard.

Fun JoyCat alphabet mystery game for kids. The objects are a good, larger size. Many items can be easily identified for the alphabet match. Some of the harder to figure out ones, in my mind, are; jigsaw, unicorn (with wings) and a watermelon with a green middle. I noted the vase had some black marring. The game board itself is good quality and thick. It is double sided with an alphabet on both sides. Good entertainment and seems durable.

This is a lot of fun for my 3 year old. Lots of learning opportunities. I like that the pieces are big as he likes to play with them too. Very sturdy box and board. Very happy with it.

We bought this for speech therapy. The board is made of decent cardboard and should last for awhile. The alphabet manipulatives are made well and durable and are a great size. Really excited about this item

Our grandson loves his MB. And we love how he interacts with his box learning and exploring
