 SuperbJun 17, 2009
By A. Robinson
My 23 month old daughter loves this. It has chunky pegs, and is realistic for a 2 year old to be able to insert. Excellent storage case and very well built product. You can NOT go wrong with; one of the better toys we have...and its quiet! I expect this to last well into her 3rd year.

 Meh. It's ok but not as good as I had hoped.Mar 15, 2011
By Teddy Bird
I had really high hopes for this one and was delighted when my sister selected this as a birthday gift for my son.
My little boy is 26 mos old and generally prefers puzzles and blocks as toys. He doesn't care much for cars/trucks. So I thought this toy with lots of manipulatives would be super fun for him.
What I discovered, sadly, is that although he is happy when you present this toy to him, he is not long entertained by it. There is a plastic frame with holes for the buttons/pegs to fit into, and the picture cards slide into notches on the backside. Think Lite Brite.
The unfortunate thing is that even if you fit the buttons into the holes properly to "complete" a picture of a dragon/house/etc, the mosaic that results really looks nothing like a dragon/house/etc. You just have a blob of buttons/pegs.
Also, the pictures are confusing. Once you insert one of the picture cards into the plastic template frame, you're not sure what to do for lots of the holes. Many of the holes are half green, half white. Do we put a green peg in here? Or leave it empty? Whichever you choose there is a big outcome on the final product.
My boy does enjoy the mechanical activity of insertion/removal but that's about it. This is a textbook three-star toy.
EDIT: AUGUST 23 2011. In the past few months, my son's interest has ratcheted up a lot with this toy. It's an ideal last-half-hour-before-bed toy as we're winding down in the living room getting ready for sleep. He's much more interested in putting the right color peg in the right color hole and is proud when he has completed the picture. I still think the quality isn't great but the boy likes it.

WonderfulMar 26, 2010

"Mommy Shopper"
This is a great toy for 2+. My daughter has no problem manipulating the pegs on her own, putting them away, sorting them, or using it as a travel case/toy. Also she spends a lot of time playing with this toy and can use it on her own. We have had no problems with the construction or quality of this toy. I would recommend it.
