Who doesn't love a good pancake?
The only thing better than getting to eat a soft, fluffy flapjack is playing with your food.
Pancake Pile-Up by Educational Insights lets your toddlers do just that (without any of the mess), while teaching them fundamentals for early education.
This game is stacked with tons of fun things for your toddlers, and the bottom of the game box doubles as a griddle game board.
It comes with 10 pancakes in five flavors (blueberry, banana, strawberry, chocolate chip, and plain), so your little foodies can practice pattern and color recognition while they stack up their pancakes.
It also comes with two pats of butter to top the stack with, two plates, two spatulas, and 10 order cards, which show different orders that need to be filled.
Build their preschool readiness
Not only is this relay game wonderful for imaginative play, it helps your little ones build their preschool readiness and social skills.
The point of the game is to stack and serve the pancakes to match your order cards, being the first to correctly complete a stack and top it with a pat of butter.
This game encourages active, physical play, helps develop early math skills (following a sequence and pattern recognition), and helps build fine motor skills, balance, and coordination as they stack up the orders at the grill.
This game is a recipient of the Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Platinum Seal and is also a winner of the Parents' Choice Award.

Pancake Pile-Up by Educational Insights
Breakfast Relay Race
This is Pancake Pile-Up, a sequence relay game for pre-schoolers. Recommended for ages four and up, this game helps develop early math skills and build gross motor skills.
A pile of fun
Pancake Pile-Up is rated for two to 12 players (in teams), from ages four and up, but our toddlers got this game when they were 2.5 and they LOVE it, even if they can't quite pull off the relay race to get the order up just yet.
They love counting the pancakes and pointing out the difference between the toppings and making sure they each have their own plates and flippers at the ready, which is just so darn cute.
What are your favorite games for helping to develop early math skills and fine motor skills with your little ones? Let us know in the Comments section below.
