What our testers said

“Shall we measure your hand- it’s 13cms.” – Girl aged 6

“I heard it click 3 times and that means 3 metres.” – Girl aged 5

What our experts think

The 5-in-1 Measure Mate is a great tool for introducing children to the concept of measurement and for showing them it’s not just distance that can be measured. It was used to its full potential once an adult showed our testers how to use it. It is easy for children to take apart to use each element and then put back together again.

Our testers enjoyed being given tasks to complete using the measure, as this helped to develop their knowledge as they worked out the answers. We liked the idea of the spirit level but did find that this wasn’t used as much as the other features.
