No idea what the previous review below is on about!

[zeyny · 10/10 · 31 December 2021]

So I have a 5 year and a 2 year old. My eldest has watched this since he was 3 and he's now literally a maths whizz! He just gets numbers in a way me or my wife never did. He knows his square numbers up 20... and pictures them as squares... obvious maybe to us now as adults but I don't ever remember being taught in that way. He understands odds and even numbers, odds having an 'odd top' when arranged in a column of 2 wide. He gets prime numbers, and is able to tell me the prime numbers up to 109. He impressed the head of the school when they were singing "The 12 days of Christmas" she had asked what all the gifts added together would make (I'm pretty sure she wasn't serious) but my son imagined a large step shape and answered "78!". She was blown away!

So in no way is this show "dumbing down" kids tv content. That's a totally ridiculous comment. It's made my kids smarter than they would be without it- it's better then watching about dinosaurs or lego!

Oh and because of this show my 2 year old knows his 2,3,4,5 and 10 times tables. It's actually insane. Love this show.

Great for my kid

My kid loves this show, he's learned so much and Can count to over a 100 at 4

Amazing math skills for kids!

[athalken · 10/10 · 11 September 2020]

My five year old not only LOVES this show but has learned so much from it. Not only does it teach counting but addition, subtraction, skip counting, square roots and so much more but in a way that kids understand and learn from! And the short episode are perfect and don't make it overwhelming. One of the best learning shows for kids ever!

Brilliant methodology to learn math

[schulzb-98759 · 10/10 · 7 June 2020]

Thoughtfully created individuals that are perfect for teaching concepts in a concise manner. Engaging episodes that other learning programs should emulate.

Sneaky Math

[petercjones7 · 10/10 · 15 June 2020]

This show is fun for kids to watch and its all math. Brilliant!

Brilliant Show

[prmichi · 10/10 · 15 July 2020]

Both of my kids are really into this cartoon. They watch over and over. It really solidifies Math for them both. My son hasn't even started kindergarten yet. He's was already naturally inclined for mathematics but now he is completely ahead of the game. My daughter loves the show as well. She will go to 3rd grade knowing much more this year thanks to your show.

A pretty solid show

[madelinefan-80580 · 9/10 · 23 December 2020]

Numberblocks is a pretty solid show in my opinion. The animation is amazing and the songs are pretty catchy. Not to mention that some episodes even teach things that aren't even apart of preschool mathematics such as Multiplication and Division (take that, Team Umizoomi)! Aside from the wildly toxic fanbase that even makes Vyond look sane in comparison, my only problem is that One can become a pretty arrogant blockhead at times. But overall, I recommend the show and if you hate it, I'm okay with it.

Excellent!

[drio-00585 · 10/10 · 15 August 2020]

My about to turn 5 yr old is adding, subtracting and even doing simple multiplication. She loves numbers and really learned a lot from this show.

Amazing show

[NixcoBox12 · 10/10 · 20 August 2020]

This show rocks. It learns maths. I learned infinity and arrays from this show. It lasted 4 seasons like Alphablocks which aired in 2017-2019 when the show ended but repeats are still airing on CBeebies. Don't wait long. Watch Numberblocks today and learn new maths things like arrays and infinity. Trust me it does learn new stuff to the brain.

turned my nephew into genious!!!!

[boneydsilva · 10/10 · 20 September 2020]

My nephew used to use my Netflix for fun..one time his mother asked him few questions of maths for fun and to all ou suprise he was just too much for us to handle

He could multiply 25*25 divide numbers knew all tables could do most of the stuff we could just imagine him do.

He is just 6-7 year old...after lot of inquiry about who taught him this he said number blocks...took use really some time to understand he watched it on Netflix.

Great stuff...I think his ability to enjoy the show made him understand the simplicity of maths involved.

We are trying to get him lear more, but we find his ability without this show... really great full.

A bit scary for my son

[bushrahaiderkhan · 8 November 2018]

Hi it is educational program i love to put this on for my son but number one block is scary. And I can understand why is it scary because of number 1.It doesn't make sense to have one eye . And if one has one eye why 3 doesn't have 3 eye and so on.. Please if you can and definitely you can please put 2 eyes on block number 1 please. Thank you.

The verdict is in... Parents aren't doing the best things for their children

[ThunderKing6 · 5/10 · 27 June 2020]

This is a baby show about counting to 3.

Educational. I guess.

Fun. Maybe.

Entertaining. No way.

Kinda dumbed down. Yes.

The show is boring. Being colorful and 3d doesn't cut it.

Its 2020 and we have a boring educational show. Back in my day we had cool mature fun children show about day to day life that didn't involve hand holding.

Now in 2020 where we are supposed to be advanced we've gone backwards to count to 3.

Parents if they weren't lazy and stupid busy they should be the ones teaching their children how to count. Not TV. TV is there to entertain. Who watches TV to learn to add 1 + 1? That makes no sense.

TV has tons of hand holding and toxic shows that parents don't mind their children watching. Number blocks is really boring..

The most amazing show for Math

[analytixshastri · 10/10 · 27 December 2023]

I wish they taught math like this wonderfully when I was a kid myself. It is immensely engaging. Kudos to the whole team for this masterpiece. Hands down the best early math education series I have ever seen. Through catchy songs, vibrant animations, and engaging storytelling, it keeps children entertained while they learn. It uses colorful blocks with numbers to represent mathematical concepts, making it tangible and easier for young minds to grasp fundamental math ideas. It lays a strong foundation for mathematical understanding in early education, fostering a positive attitude towards numbers and math.

Math for Children at it's finest

[kyle_home · 10/10 · 16 October 2022]

I can't say enough good things about this show. Whether it's the visual representation of numbers and the ability to relay the point across to the audience or it catchy songs; Numberblocks is like a math class your kids will want to attend. It's characters are well written with personalities of their own and they show pride in their numerological abilities, for example there is a square club which contains 1, 4, 9, 16, 25 etc.

The show also strongly grasps all 4 of the basic mathematical functions: +-×÷. It explains these in a way that's fun for children and as long as they have at least some interest in math, they should be able to grasp the concepts and do basic math.

So, so clever.

[emmaeverittstory · 10/10 · 19 January 2023]

My three year old is obsessed with counting, addition, and is beginning to learn simple multiplication. I can take absolutely no credit. This show breaks things down in a way which children understand and retain without even realising, because they love the characters, the storylines and the songs. And to be honest, so do I. "High Five" is definitely in my top ten tunes, somewhere after Jimmy Jazz and before Heart-shaped Box.

I hope the writers can find a way to make more advanced mathematics enjoyable and easy, otherwise I shall be cursing their names when my son wants to start algebra next year.

Absolutely brilliant!!!

[pgennett · 10/10 · 15 September 2021]

My 6 year old and 4 year old absolutely love this show! It has helped both children with having a above and beyond math comprehension over their peers. Their teachers want to know the secret. This one I can't credit for, tell them all its Numberblocks!! Thank you all! The show is even entertaining to me!! Thanks again for creating this fabulous show!

Along with BFDI, it is one of my favorite shows!

[ho-97049 · 10/10 · 22 September 2021]

This show inspired people not only to learn math and be smart, but to make their own NB OCs, fan shows, gijinkas, etc. I even did that too.

It even spawned a community but it is so damn toxic, probably because of how many extremely toxic kids there are, they are so toxic, so mean and SO, BURGER FLIPPIN', ANNOYING. Good thing I was never in the community because I don't know how to get in it. Lucky me! (7's catchphrase).

AMAZING

[reemfaiz · 10/10 · 2 September 2020]

Extremely fun way to learn math. My daughter 5 years old learned great deal and loves to watch it

I don't ever write reviews- but I LOVE this show

[forthelittletikes · 10/10 · 21 December 2020]

It's a counting show, but it makes counting fun. It's kind of like School House Rock, but just with math.

My boys love watching it and my 3year old can now count to 12! Before he would count from 1-5 but skip #4. He also knows that 3+3 make 6 and other random ways of adding numbers together. The songs are catchy and the characters are so fun! I love this show so much. My sister-in-law also loves this show and it helped her son count by 10's to 100 and he can also count by 5's

Can't recommend enough!

(Read Desc) Great Show, Horrifying Community!

[TheBombyMaster · 17 August 2020]

(Update 2022: This review is heavily opinionated and most likely outdated. I made this... thing when I was 15 and still figuring things out about social media and life in general. (I'd delete it but I don't know how to delete IDMB review's oof-) I had the mindset of "show good, fandom bad" back then, since I experienced it first hand. I have since left the community and have grown to see that the things I was complaining about (while still a bit morally questionable) were far from as bad as things could get online. (Boy was I naïve back then) There was a lot of toxicity in this community. Which comes naturally for a fandom based on kids show (Hello My Little Pony) and while that obviously does not excuse any of these people's behavior, I have since seen just how bad things could get. And no longer stand by this review. (Another reason being that it's fandom has nothing to do with the show itself why'd I even bring it up?) Feel free to report this if you wish (not like I use the website anyway...) However, until that happens, enjoy this trainwreck of a review!)

I Love This Show! It Teaches kids About Suprisingly Advanced Math Skills In A Way That Is Not Confusing. Most Kids Shows That Try to Teach Subjects Like Multiplication Just Tell You What The Awnsers Are And That's It. But Numberblocks Teaches These Kinds Of Subjects In A Fun Interesting Way! The Show Is Also Adorable! Two's Song Touches Me Every Time!

The Only Reason I'm Giving It A Nine A Not A Ten Is Becuase Of It's Community. The Numberblocks Community Is Not A Child Freindly Environment! It Includes Extremely Toxic People, Surprisingly Graphic Imagery For A Community Based On A Kids Show, And All Sorts Of Other Things Kids Should Not Be Seeing!

In Conclusion, If You Have A Little One, I Reccomened Putting Them On Numberblocks! But, And I'm Saying This As Someone In The NBC (NumberBlocks Community) Make Sure They Stay Away From It's Teenage Fanbase At All Costs!

show sticks

[pnmickey · 1/10 · 13 July 2022]

Its literally a ripoff of numberjacks And kids are uploaded numberblocks on tiktok I think numberjacks is an og But numberblocks??? I liked blues clues,mickey mouse clubhouse more than numberblocks Bad show through.

Brilliant

[amandamargulies · 10/10 · 31 May 2021]

My four year old loves this show and in the process is getting familiar with numbers. He's watched all episodes multiple times and accurately recites equations. Pretty genius show!

Really Crazy Show!!!

[[e-mail] · 10/10 · 13 December 2021]

For kids ok lame education about numbers... BUT BUT BUT...for adults!!!! Many movie-hints (e. G. Alice in Wonderland, back to the future,...) , intelligent tests, musical dreams (e. G. 1 dreams of 100 so huge,... ) hints to decades (e. G. 90-> black/white like the apple logo of the first Mac, 80 -> pink, 70->rainbow,...) and so on...just to funny to explore the hints!!!!

Got my kid into maths, but became scary

[natalie142857 · 9/10 · 13 September 2019]

My three year old daughter got so into this show, she started doing and understanding multiplication and division. Unfortunatly when 100 came along she became so terrified she leaves the room and refuses to watch numberblocks anymore. Maybe because 100 has one eye and a deep voice? I hope the furture episodes are less scary for the little ones who are old enough to understand some of it. Brilliant show otherwise.

Whoever Thinks This Show Is Scary, You Are Wrong

[Roberto_The_Android · 10/10 · 31 May 2022]

I Love This Show, I Could Watch It All The Day, I Hope There Is SEASON 6, I Love The Animation, And Also I Love The Character's Voice, And Btw I Hope BBC Launches 6th Season!
