Customer Rating:
Summary: Functional but not fun for all
Comment: I use this item for doing developmental evaluations of children up to 3 years old. It is very useful for that purpose but I find that only about 25% of the kids are interestesd in it. The ones who like it seem to like it a lot but the high energy kids don't really like it much. Maybe it would "grow" on a kid if they had it in their home but in general I'd only recommend it to families whose kids like fine motor tasks like puzzles, shape sorters, etc.

Summary: My 18 month old loves it!!!
Comment: My mother originally bought this toy at a garage sale, so of course it was missing pieces. Being a teacher I immediately saw the learning potential (colors, shapes, fine motor, counting, sorting, etc). I did some research and found this product (least expensive after shipping) at a store called LiveandLearn. The only reason that I gave it 4 stars is because the pieces can easily get lost. I bought another one to replace the one with missing pieces. My daughter really enjoys this toy.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Great for three-year-olds
Comment: I bought this item for my little boy's third birthday and he just loves it. Prior to using this toy, I had difficulty trying to teach him his colors. Now he separates the colors like a pro!

I have another three-year-old (soon to be four). He uses this toy in a totally different way. He sorts by shape, sets out the different foam pieces and pegs on the floor and plays with them just as pieces, fills his little basket with them and walks around the house like Little Red Riding Hood, and generally loves them.

I must say that I love all products by Lauri. We have some lacing/tracing toys and some puzzles as well. They have helped both my toddlers with their fine motor skills more than any other toys they own. The foam pieces stand up well, as long as your kids are past the choking/chewing age. Also, Lauri Toys will replace lost or chewed on pieces!

The only reason I give this item 4 stars and not 5 is that our pegs get lost very easily due to my younger toddler's throwing habit. If a peg is missing, the puzzle isn't nearly as much fun. I understand that the peg/foam pad was developed to go with Lauri's other peg systems, so it wouldn't be a big deal if we had other pegs from Lauri, but we don't.

Summary: Doesn't stay together.
Comment: My daughter is 18 months old and takes this toy apart every time she plays with it. She pulls the pegs out and puts them in her mouth. Then she tosses the shapes everywhere. Not exactly a sorter! Just a mess. Save your money!

Customer Rating:
Summary: Outstanding toy
Comment: This is a really great preschool toy. I bought one for my two year old and he really loves it. He will spend a whole hour playing with it. The chunky pieces and pegs are great for little hands, and the bright primary colors and variety of shapes are great for learning. The pieces also work well for making a color shape matrix to go along with my kindergartner's math. This toy was a wonderful homeschool investment. The one caveat is that I have to watch my two year old and make sure he doesn't bite the pieces.
