The small sale price on this item reflects its size.Feb 15, 2002
By K Byrnside I guess I should've read the dimensions in the description, because I was very surprised to see how small this toy actually was. Despite its size, my children loved playing with this toy. It is a fine toy for independent play, but unfortuantely, because it only has the one surface to display the bear on, it was not long before we had a fight on our hands. I will tell you that the best aspect of this toy, is that it offers a new method of explaining "feelings" to a young child. The happy, sad, mad, and sick faces were a fun new way to teach my little ones.

Melissa and Doug - High Quality StandardsJan 19, 2008
By Roseann I see that some reviews talk about Melissa & Doug items made in china. I spoke with Melissa & Doug on this, ALL of their items are product tested in their home office before being sold. They have the highest quality controls - they are not a public giant company so they can adhere to their own higher standards.
As for this toy, my daughter loves it. It is great to dress up the bear in so many different outfits!
As usual, Melissa & Doug have outdone themselves again! :)
My daughter loves this toyDec 07, 2011
By Crestviewer I picked up this toy at a neighbor's garage sale last summer and we have definitely gotten our money's worth out of it. My daughter loves it.
I like that the faces can be used to talk about emotions with a child. I also like that all of the pieces fit in the small box (with some careful arranging).
The toy is limited in that there is only space to make one bear at a time. It also comes with a decent amount of small pieces (which can be easily scattered/lost).
We got the Melissa and Doug Wooden Bear Family for my daughter's birthday and I like that set a little more because there are more bears to make. I would recommend checking out the bear family if you are interested in this bear because for a few more dollars, you get three bears to dress which provides a lot more possibilities (and a lot more pieces).
Perfect for those motor skills!Apr 06, 2010
By J. M. Ricks This is very cute! If your little one likes playing with puzzles or toys that are tactile and hands-on (but not too complicated) then this is perfect. It's not very big- about the size of an adult's hand.
My only complaint is that the lid does not stay closed. It just sits on top the box, but there is nothing to make it stay- bad designing concept.
Nice for teaching emotionsJan 12, 2010
By A. Frank I had bought this as a gift for a little girl, but never gave it and ended up keeping it for my son. He's not into it, though. But sometimes I pull it out and we go through the emotions. I will ask him to make a sad bear and he will, though a couple of the emotions are hard to tell. I think he doesn't like that it's a girl and not a boy with professional (fireman, doctor, etc) attire. They should make a boy one...not sure if they do. I know they have one with a family...
I can see a little girl liking this toy a lot.
