5 out of 5 stars Been through 2 kids and still going strong!   November 5, 2008
This toy has been a hit with my children and their friends. They enjoy finding the pieces behind the doors, and they also play with the pieces on the fridge. We make the sounds of the animals or objects when we find them. It's a great memory toy, too. I will ask my child to find a certain piece and it hasn't taken long for them to remember where each piece is.

5 out of 5 stars Two year LOVES this toy!   August 14, 2008
After reading the reviews.. I bought this toy for my daughter for her second birthday. I had absolutely no idea she would fall in love with this toy.. my goodness, she LOVES it!

Two months later, she plays with it every single day. She has mastered all the pieces.. educational value is through the roof. She knows exactly what all the pieces are and the corresponding sound to the animals.. and she knows where to put all the pieces once they are all out. She loves lifting up the flap and seeing all the animals.

One thing I want to note. This toy only gets a 4 star for durability b/c the magnetic pieces are wood with a paper picture on top - my daughter put one of the pieces in her mouth, and the paper has torn. I do wish the pictures of the animals, plan, farmer, etc. were painted on instead. So dont let your child put the pieces in their mouth!

Overall, highly recommend this toy.. do not listen to the "recommended age" for this toy - my 2 year old daughter loves it, perfect age for her.. and very educational regarding building up memory skills of where everything goes. By far one of the best toys we have for her.

We got this to entertain our 16 month old son while we all sat and watched a 2 hour hockey game. He loved it! I like that the pieces are magnetic and don't fall out when it's tipped over. Sometimes he wasn't able to get the pieces out on his own due to the magnets, but he was able to do it within a few more months. Getting the pieces back in was a cinch from the beginning - a great way to start out before trying the more advanced puzzles. Great toy - I am a believer in Melissa Doug toys!


5 out of 5 stars FABULOUS TODDLER TOY   April 13, 2007

My 20-month old is fascinated with this clever toy, and I expect it to hold her interest as her abilities continue to develop. She loves to open and close all of the hiding spots and to move the animals around into different places.

For now, she's trying to put more than one animal behind one door and the doors won't always shut. So that will keep her challenged and curious.
Plus, she has yet to figure out that the magnets will stick to the fridge.

There's lots to learn and explore with this very clever, well-designed and economical toy!!
