hand2mind 12 inch Flexible Safe-T Plastic Beginner Rulers, Set of 12

This is a really great idea for toddlers who like to put plastics that are thin into their mouth and break them off. This is flexible and will not break off in their mouth and for a teacher that is working with toddlers every day I like less to worry about.

As a teacher, these are my favorite rulers for introducing measurement to children. They are especially good for visual learners. Every child should have one of these rulers when they begin learning about measurement.

I use this for my outdoor photography documentation. I wanted something inexpensive, bright, and sturdy to give my photos scale. Metric and Standard Very flexible. I like the bright colors and large text. Good value pack.

Nice weight, crisp printing. Wonderful quality.

These are really helpful for learning fourths of an inch and centimeters. I used it with my 3rd grade class. It’s much easier to see. Great for introducing measurement.

I love the quality and the fact that these rulers aren't broken into sixteenths of an inch. My only complaint is that they don't start with a zero on the end. Most rulers have a notch and start at zero because of eventual wear and tear. For younger learners starting on the edge was challenging because they would tend to "curl" the start of the straight line. Other than that, they are very durable and easy to read.

I photograph artifact collections for historical societies. One staple item that's necessary to put in each frame is a centimeter scale, which gives the viewer a sense of how large is each artifact. I shopped for something like this product over a year ago and couldn't find anything manufactured, so I made one myself. Pain in the neck to do that and they were made of paper and foam board, so eventually they were worn out. These scales are printed on heavy plastic with a slight yield to bending. They are very durable and should last a very long time. The package includes 2 size scales, a quantity of each. Honestly, considering how durable these are, I'll only need one set for a while. If you're a teacher, having these scales in quantity makes a lot of sense. I doubt any vendor out in Amazon land would sell just one scale at a time because it's too inexpensive. Anyway, these professional and precise scales are a bargain at this price.

The BEST ruler to teach measurement to 2nd graders!
