What are These?

I got a bag of these at the thrift store for $1.29. I was thinking "cool new manipulatives". Now I have no clue what they are and either do my kiddos.

I'm pretty sure those are a domino type block. I had a truck that you loaded with these, the truck would drive slowly and drop one at a time to make a domino strip and then you could knock down the row….

I would use them as dominos, or use to sort by colour and for counting. Just put them in a basket and let the children explore them. They might be used as soup in the kitchen area…you never know what the kids will come up with.

what she said.... We had that truck many years ago.

It looks like that is what they are doesn't it? I guess I will just put them back until we figure out a day when we want to play around with them. I like the suggestions above, but for any that would put in the mouth they are to small.
