Guidecraft Educators

Posted on 16th June 2011 in Guidecraft Product Reviews

Our roots are firmly planted in the educational market. Indeed since 1964 we’ve crafted quality educational products and it’s still the core of our business today. That’s why we are truly honored to introduce to you our new Guidecraft Educator blog group. We’ve assembled 7 top notch educators from all walks of life with varied experiences that over the next year will, inform, inspire, and excite you with reviews of Guidecraft’s educational focused products.

 Our Educators blog group is designed to give Early Childhood Educators hands-on, inventive, and creative new ways to integrate Guidecraft’s products into your classroom. However, this group is also for parents, grandparents, care givers, homeschoolers, and all others who daily interact with children and who struggle to find new ways to challenge and motivate them.

 You can find a brief bio of each Educator along with a link to their blogs from our Guidecraft home page online (click on Guidecraft Educators along the left side). Make it a point today to subscribe to their blogs, “Friend” or “Like” them on Facebook and follow them on twitter. Believe us; you won’t want to miss a single article or review!

Nesting Sort & Stack Cubes & Cylinders Review

Posted on 14th March 2011 in Guidecraft Product Reviews

Congratulations to Judy! Winner of the Cubes & Cylinders promotional giveaway.

When it comes to playing with toys, I love to watch my kids become engrossed with ones that they truly enjoy. Just seeing the wonder and imagination on their face as they figure out how to use them in a multitude of ways and how they are inspired by the whole exploration process… although it also makes me pause sometimes and wonder, “Who are these kids and where did my babies go?”

One company that has never disappointed us when it comes to everything from a simple wooden toy to a complex building toy is Guidecraft. I’m not sure how they have made it so that every dramatic play item or every manipulative toy has been an instant favorite, but they have.

So, as soon as I opened the Nesting Sort & Stack Cubes and the Nesting Sort & Stack Cylinders from Guidecraft, I had no doubt that they would be joining the ranks of our other beloved toys.

Guidecraft loves kids and we love celebrating their birthdays!  

 

Every month we’ll pick one Facebook friend’s child to send a birthday present to. At the start of each month, we’ll ask whose children have a birthday during that particular month.  

If your child has an upcoming birthday, please post a comment on our Facebook page telling us your son or daughter’s age then send us an email with your name and shipping address to kids@guidecraft.com

Each month, one person’s child will be sent a special gift from Guidecraft to help celebrate their birthday.  The monthly winner will be chosen by the 10th. Winners will be posted on our Facebook page and the gift will be sent the next business day. 

 

*This contest is open to US and Canadian addresses only.*
