I received Wuka Squares in exchange for this post. All opinions expressed are my own.
Each Wuka square costs between $15 and $19, which seems a little steep until you actually see them. The quality and functionality is amazing! My son is almost four and he is crazy about the Snap-Stasche Square. It has two columns and six faces that you can sort and snap on. These six pieces can be sorted by happy vs. sad or by size, color, shape, pattern or even facial hair. This single page has kept him busy for almost 30 minutes in one sitting on its own. This Wuka square reinforces sorting, matching, organizing, letter and emotion recognition, along with color and shape identification.
My favorite is the Bundled Up Wuka Square because it has three layers of clothing for him to practice manipulating buttons, snaps and zippers. After using this square for less than a week he was able to button his own pants and after just over a week he unbuttoned his own dress shirt for the first time! I love that this square is helping him be more independent while developing his self-help skills. Each button is a different color, which reinforces color recognition and each layer of clothing has different fabric patterns and textures. Even the zipper has an adorable Wuka detail on it.
My daughter who is almost two loves to play with the Peek-a-Boo Bear Wuka Square. This lets her play with magnets through imaginary play. We were sent two more squares including Knot a Problem that has a shoe on it to practice tying and lacing shoelaces. This is a little beyond my son at the moment but it will be perfect for him to grow into as he develops. For now he is enjoying playing with it and practicing tying knots. The final square we received was Pack It In, which has a backpack on it with several different latches and zippers. I love that has several different compartments to stash little treats or toys for him to discover.
Wuka is amazing! I cannot say that enough. Each time we play with our Wuka I discover new details and ways to use them. I also really appreciate the fact that it can roll up and into my purse or diaper bag so easily makes me want to take it everywhere. We showed my son’s Wuka to his pre-school teacher and she was very impressed with it. She said that it would work perfectly for centers. The possibilities with Wuka are endless. I cannot wait to see what new squares they come up with next!
