Learning Resources has announced the launch of a new activity set inspired by the animated children’s educational TV series “Numberblocks.”

The new line is based on Learning Resources existing MathLink Cubes products. MathLink Cubes is a linkable construction toy developed for hands-on mathematics learning through play. The new licensed Activity Set will allow children to play along with “Numberblocks” episodes and engage in further learning opportunities.

“Many parents and teachers use our MathLink cubes to make ‘Numberblocks’ activities for their children,” says Dennis Blackmore, managing director, Learning Resources. “This partnership means that we can bring together the imaginative power of ‘Numberblocks’ with MathLink Cubes’ tried and tested quality to create exciting new products. Our new Activity Set is designed for use in the home or classroom, and with the power of the Numberblocks brand behind them will be a popular product in all retail environments.”

The new MathLink Cubes Numberblocks Activity Set will be available through major retailers later this year. For Learning Resources, the announcement adds to its growing list of partners. The company previously announced a partnership with the “Super Wings” brand earlier this year.
