My puppies love this toy! I have two Havanese, each under 10 pounds, and they love the individual pieces and the haunted house itself. I love putting a few treats into the house and then watching them try to get them out. It has definitely kept them entertained and is durable for light/moderate chewing. Highly recommend. And it's really cute!

We got this today through the Amazon 3 to 4 year old STEM subscription and it is great!  Our daughter is bright and needs a lot of constant stimulation to keep her occupied, so we were happy to find that subscription, and then for this to be the first toy sent we were pretty Bowen away.
This is good quality,  tough and durable plastic, and well made.  I loved the book it came with, full of cute vehicle characters to make and diagrams showing how. It is also so great for off the book imaginative play.  My daughter made a wagon, a robot,  a stroller,  a rocking cradle which became a sail boat, all on her own. She is 3 and had a fairly easy time with this toy,  needing minimal help.
My disabled sister who is developmentally similar had a great time with them too,  though it was harder for her to manipulate so she directed me and I was her hands.
I adore the sturdy plastic container this came in, and the super easy open packaging.
There is nothing negative that comes to mind at all and I can't wait for our next month's subscription toy!

This toy is adorable! It has so many play options! cMy 11 month likes twisting the faucet and opening and closing the door best. My 6 years old gets into the more complex ends of it (switching it to day and night to hear the different phrases) This was well worth the leap frog "20.00 and up" price I paid for it. I also like that it is a compact size - about 9x9 inches. Yet it dosn't feel to small. My just walking 11 month old can carry it around without throwing him off balance. We are very impressed!

We received this as a gift three years ago and didn't have any preconceived notions about whether it should have names on the sides of the animals or if all of them should have sound boxes in them, so we didn't find that disappointing at all.  We absolutely love it!  The rabbit has a rattle and the bird has a squeaker.  The cat and dog "meow" and "woof" accordingly.  Adorable, fun for small hands.  I was surprised that I was able to wash all of the animals and they continued to make their sounds.  High quality product.  Velcro still going strong after 3 years of lots of play (I haven't tried to wash it yet).  3 year old and 1 year old still carry around the little house carrying case with other items in it.  A wonderful product.

I got this for my two year old neice who loves to be entertained.  After a couple minutes of hide and seek and peek a boo, I get a little worn out, so it is nice to have Elmo around to keep her entertained.  She was so fascinated with him the first time she played with him, and her enthusiasm has yet to wear off.

The toy is very durable, though not huggable like most stuffed animals, due to the need to add a motor to allow Elmo to raise and lower his arms (and blanket).  I think it is adorable.

I have a 15 month old daugther who loves the entire Jellycat book collection. She received the "If I were a Puppy book" at 6 months and has loved each new animal book we have added since then. Each book focuses on a specific animal and has different textures on each page illustrating a quality about the animal (i.e. Penguins have a fluffy tummy so the page is fluffy). Even though the text in the books is very simple, the books are cute, well made and seem very entertaining to infants and toddlers. Each book also has a coordinating stuffed animal or lovie, we have several of those as well and are equally impressed with their quality and softness. I would recommend anything made by Jellycat to other parents!

This toy was recommended to me by my 2 year olds preschool teacher. We purchased the toy and since it arrived, shes been playing with it non-stop!

There are 4 vibrant colors of ice cream, two ice cream scoopers, an ice cream box and two ice cream cones. The pieces are all very large so theres no concern about younger ones swallowing anything pieces. The cones, scoopers, and ice cream are all magnetic so they stick to one another very well. The magnets are pretty strong so you can easily have two ice cream scoops on top of each other before you have to worry about it falling over. The scoops also have a release feature to make it easier to drop an ice cream scoop on a cone.

There is one con: the scoopers, the magnet piece that allows it to hold the ice cream is held on by two tiny plastic circles that have a tendency to fall out - but it is easily fixed. Just a bit annoying when you have small kids who are likely to knock it off frequently.

The set is so adorable and I am so happy to have purchased it. An added bonus? The ice cream box looks real and has adorable printings (to mimic a food label) around it.

Highly recommend!

My toddler son loves his jump rope and while we've never seen "Lazy Town" the song is a hit in our family!  Fisher Price has once again developed a great toy, its fun and durable!  My son has dropped the handles on this jump rope several times on our tile and hard wood floors--I expected it to be cracked several times over and it still looks brand new.  He loves pushing the button and jumping wiht the song.  He has had a blast playing with it since he received it for Christmas.

Pros:  (1)  Fun, upbeat song that is not too annoying to listen to repeatedly.  (2)  Extremely durable, trust me my son has put it through all the paces.  (3)  Promotes jumping and fun.  (3)  Long battery life, he's played with it nearly daily since Christmas on the same batteries.

Cons:  (1)  The cord is too long for him, that is fine as he hasn't figured out how to really jump rope, but loves to bounce along like Tigger to the song.  (2)  The microphone is useless, we've never heard either our voice or his during the song or without the song.  That's fine too, we didn't buy it for the sing-along-aspect.

I really just bought this b/c my toddler saw it while I was online shopping and wanted it (or any toy, I imagine) - since it wasn't expensive and she hadn't received any new toys recently I just bought it. I fully expected it to be a rarely used toy (it's a lantern...), but she and my 7 month old both actually love it! It has enough different features to keep them interested for quite awhile. The spinner in front was easy for my baby to figure out right away, but now she can usually manage pushing the top button too. The movable squirrel (it clicks when moved) is a little bit of a waste in our experience so far, but that doesn't matter.  No obnoxious sounds, which is great for me, too :) I am surprisingly very happy with this purchase.

i bought this as a two-part gift for my 2yo niece -- she, as well as the other kids at the birthday party -- loved it. they're super cute and durable, seeing as how they're made out of wood and hard plastic. the really cute part was that they have light magnetic circles that help keep them on top of the wood cone foundation. i'm definitely a lover of melissa and doug products, and this one is truly a great one. if your kid loves ice cream, cooking, or playing in a little kitchen, i'd recommend this in a heartbeat.

We received our pop up tent and tunnels, and have absolutely loved them. We purchased them to have as a entertainment as our house is being remodeled, and they have been better than we even imagined! Both my 2.5 year old and 10 month old have played with it and been entertained for an hour or two. It's great for a wide range of ages. I also love that it completely folds up and fits in a small bag for easy transportation. Ive moved them from inside the house to outside in the grass for them to play. It was also a wonderful toy to pack in our suitcase and fly with to visit the grandparents. We LOVE it and highly recommend it. I also just recently gifted this to my 2 nephews for the birthday, and they are 1 and 3 years old. It was a hit at the party!

My 3 year old received this for Christmas, along with all of the other sets that Build & Imagine has made so far. I wasn't sure if she would be old enough to really play with the toy, but she was! She loved it immediately, and has had a lot of fun playing with it ever since.

There are tons of little pieces, so if you have a kid that still mouths toys, or a baby around, you'll need to keep a careful watch. We keep all the tiny magnetic pieces in a ziploc bag. The magnets are strong, and the pieces are durable- we haven't had anything break at all.

She still asks to play with the sets frequently, and has surprised me with her building and imaginative skills.

I would definitely recommend all of the sets to kids aged 3+. It's a winner in our house!

We are so impressed with this charming playset! My three-year-old grandson, typically preoccupied with trains, trucks, and construction vehicles, has begun to "integrate" creatures from the natural world into his playscapes. I get a chuckle seeing the flamingo, rhino, and zebra (et al) co-mingling with semis and skid-steer loaders next to a homemade Magna Tile freeway, lol.

Initially I had put these together myself and displayed them on a shelf he couldn't reach in his playroom. I did this because they're so cute (each a tiny little work of art, in my opinion) and my adult mindset feared they'd be destroyed within 30 seconds. After that I even put them away for awhile because they were largely ignored. Well as they say, timing is everything because they've been a big hit since being re-introduced. He enjoys them more now, having put them together himself and been given the freedom to do with them as he pleases without adult interference.

These are very sturdy and well made; the chipboard they're made of is thick and tough. The pieces pop out easily and it's a straightforward task to build each animal, which in itself is a good learning task for little ones. Variety abounds with 20 figurines and 5 habitat scenery pieces. My only complaint is the habitat figures are made from less sturdy material and the stands fall out of them consistently. I hope Petit Collage opts to fix this because it's an annoying flaw. The animals are all perfect, so the quality contrast is surprising.

Lastly, I love the simplicity of toys made from natural, recyclable materials.

I purchased this toy for my 20-month-old son. He loves it! I initially went to amazon looking for a similar version in plastic, but was delighted to find this wooden one instead. It requires a bit of assembly when it arrives, but it took less than 20 minutes.  Thus far, it has been very sturdy. My toddler often loses interest in toys after their "newness" wears off...but not this toy! He plays with it for hours each day. It is also great for sharing with friends. I do agree with other reviewers that you might want to consider buying a few more cars to go with it, since it only comes with one.

My 10 year old son has had this for over 2 years. Its scratched, banged up, and still running! Its easy to use and is very stable, very durable. He takes it on our dog walks around the neighborhood, which are 20 minutes or so, and it makes the entire trip with us! The range is impressive--it goes approximately 2 houses ahead of us on our walks. Very happy with this purchase...its not often that a toy lasts this long and retains its original fun factor.

I purchased this toy for my daughter when she was 4 months old. The one we have is identical to this one but has the star instead of the lion on top. It is the cutest stacker set I have ever seen!

Each star is colored but transparent so that when placed on the base, the bright shimmering lights cause each star "ring" to light up and plays a magical little tune. Once all stars are placed on top it performs a short musical and light up show.

This was one of my favorites out of all her 'infant & toddler' aged toys. We just retired it,finally, by sending it to her day care for others to enjoy. This is a very durable infant toy, and out of the 2 year she played with it, we never did have to replace the batteries. They hold up very well.
