Learning Resources Centimeter Cubes, Math Manipulatives, Learning Cubes for Kids, Set of 500, Ages 6, 7, 8+

We use these in so many different math concepts that we do as visual aids in problems to help students understand what it is that we are learning. A lot with our Elementary students in adding and subtracting. But they are also good for making multiplication arrays.

While these centimeter cubes are sold as a learning tool for kids, they can serve many other useful purposes. They can be used as colorful table scatter for lots of different events. They can be used to replace boring gravel in aquariums. They can be used as eye catching vase filler. I even use them to replace old, or less exciting board game components. Those are just to name a few. I'm sure there's a ton of other uses that I haven't thought of yet. They are quality cubes, that are constantly sized, with 10 different colors, which are evenly distributed, and they're a very affordable solution for all of the uses that I've listed.
