Comment on this post for a chance to win a set of these trays. If you prefer letter trays over number trays, tell me in your comment! The drawing will be mostly random, but I love how creative you guys get. Tell me what you’ll do with them, make me laugh or just say hi. I’ll pick 24 Letter Tray winners, and 24 Number Tray winners. Good luck! I’ll announce the winners on Sunday.

I’m pregnant with my first child, and I have a feeling the letters would be a huge hit with kids!
Hmmm…I’m wondering if I could make jello shots with those molds. Use the letters to do my favorite hockey players initials or the numbers to match the ones on their jerseys…. and take the shots to the Sharks games, er, not the games cuz that wouldn’t be legal, so maybe just in front of the tv while watching an away game. With some friends of course because one should never do jello shots alone….
numbers, letters, learn to spell
nouns, and books, and show and tell
I can tell that we are gonna be friends
I am a preschool teacher and these would make the best treats!!! So pretty please with sugar on top! My kiddos would love you forever.
I have a 14 month old girl (with a broken arm) who would get a kick out of these trays. So would my 4 year old son. I think making jello with them would be fun for the kids. It’s a great way to teach them letters and numbers. If I win, I would get lots of use of either the numbers tray or the letters tray. I’m not picky. Thanks!
My son and stepdaughter would get a thrill out of making stuff with these.
I swear sooner or later I want to start a food blog, but with school I feel like I don’t have time for anything!!!
Too freakin’ cute!
Definitely making some cakes to spell out happy birthday or special messages for my two year old niece!
Hmmm..I think I’d love the letters…and that way when we finally decide on a name for our baby (due in Feb) we can mail boxes of yummy letters to family members so they can figure out the name!
I’d love the letter trays. I would use them to make jello name wigglers, cookie letters, solid chocolate letters (like the kind you buy in the store). Individual rice mold letters for putting on a serving plate. The possibilities are endless!
I’d like to make a cake with my new last name!
my little neice is having her tonsils out next month, and i am sure she would just love to have alphabet popsicles to suck on! pain relief and education all in one!!! please pick me for AJ’s sake!
These are awesome! My kids would LOVE them! I could make all kinds of stuff using these!
I love these things. They look like lots of fun for little ones.
Thanks.
Sign me up!
These are awesome! I would use these in making sweets for the in-laws 30th anniversary in December
Ohh there are endless possibilities with the letters!
Ohhh! Numbers or letters, I don’t know which would be better!! Pick Me!! Pretty Please
Oh, please just pity me. I’m trying to help teach my 5 year old math and how to read. It is NOT easy – but I’ll bet this would make it a lot more fun!
I have a 1st birthday and a 2nd birthday coming up for my two children. I would love to make it a little special. For my 16 month old I made an Icecream cake but it was hard to cut. This would be so neat to make individual icecream cakes spelling out the names. Madeline and Natelie. The other thing I would love to do is when I am playing “Easter Bunny” To make Chocolate shells and fill them up with other cand and then put a backing on the letters. Candy inside Candy truffles. I know this is non food but you could also put plaster of paris in them and use them to make decorations for your child’s room to either teach them about numbers and letters or paint them special and spell out colors and paint them that color. My gosh this gets me excited.
These are great for parties – brownies spelling the occasion, wonderful fun for popcicles for my nieces. Gotta have them!
do i have to comment on this specific post to be entered to win? haha i just commented everywhere else…
I’d use them in a fun way for our homeschooling! Also, using them in a big punch bowl, it would be like a huge icy game of alphabet soup! Hehe!
these are too fun!
I would love to have both!! I don’t know how people would choose. Being a Kindergarten teacher you need the letters and numbers and there is so much you could do with them for this age group!!! I can hardly wait!
Last year I announced my pregnancy on my blog with sugar cookie cut-outs. If I get these, maybe I will announced the next one with something else fun like cakes. Plus, my son will love them when he is big enough.
(I prefer the letter set.)
these would instantly make a party!
A: You’re an alphabet
B: You’re a belly button
C: You’re a cantaloupe with arms
I could go on! My kindergartent students would have a blast with those numbers and letters! Who am I kidding? So would I!
The numbers are awesome! These would totally add some fun to my kitchen…
Letter preference, i would use them to make cute gifts for my friends, bake them a muffin with the first letter of their name, use these for holiday goodie bags or birthdays!
I’d take either but I like the letters cause I want to use them to make cookies for my pediatric kiddies in the hospital.
oooooh pick me! pick me!! pretty please with a big cherry on top?
i would prefer letter trays over number trays, but i am not picky and would be happy with either!!
i can’t wait to use these…. i don’t really plan to use them for ice (though maybe i will from time to time)… i want to use these to freeze other things… like egg whites, egg yolks, fresh herb butter, lemon/lime/orange zest, ginger, ice cream, etc. the possibilities are endless!!!
I could really have some fun with these!
The letter trays could really let me get creative, and get my picky eater son to try new things
I was sick and almost missed this, glad I remebered in time
I love these! I hope I win!
These are totally cool! I was brainstorming with the kids, and they think that it would help them spell better if I made letter cupcakes. Or browinies. Or cookies. I’m sensing a pattern….
A haiku:
Trays can be the way
To form water into ice
Letters would be nice
I’d love to make letter cakes for my husband and kids’ birthdays. It would be so much cooler than writing “Happy Birthday” in icing; I could spell it out in cake!
I want to try all different kinds of things!
I would make colored ice or jello letters. They look so fun.
Very original… I like it !
It would be handy to amuse the kids and for 40th birthday parties. An earlier post from Ashleigh (I think) mentioned jambalaya and described it as coming from the French. It is from Languedoc, laya being an old word for rice.
Thank you for your post, John-Christopher Ward.
In response to your concern above….
Creole Jambalaya originates from the French Quarter of New Orleans, in the original European sector. It was an attempt by the Spanish to make paella in the New World, where saffron was not readily available due to import costs. In modern Louisiana, the dish has evolved along a variety of different lines. Creole Jambalaya, or red Jambalaya as it is called by Cajuns, is found primarily in and around New Orleans, where it is simply known as “Jambalaya.”
The first appearance of any variant of the word “jambalaya” in any language occurred in “Leis amours de Vanus; vo, Lou paysan oou théâtré,” by Fortuné (Fourtunat) Chailan, first published in Provencal in 1837
Can you imagine the fun I could have with the letter trays? Spelling out names for birthdays in jello, brownies, cakes, muffins, chocolate, you name it! I could even make peppermint bark in letter shapes this coming holiday season. I’m getting fired up about this. However, I would take the numbers too. This is awesome!
Hello there,
this is totally unrelated, but can you do a blog on the pros/cons of immersion blenders, food processors, and blenders (and any other similar equipment)? I am thinking of buying (a used) one to make butternut squash soup, but I want it to be versatile enough so that I know that I’ll get some use out of it. Thanks
ps – I go to school in NOLA!!
I just looked at my post again. Cracks me up that I misspelled brownies when I was talking about getting my kids to spell better. I really need these letters!
