HUGE!!! More like building block sized pieces...Aug 03, 2010 WOW despite the other reviews, I thought these would be on the smaller side - a nice travel toy to keep busy while away from home but they may be too big for that. They are much bigger than I thought they would be - they are more like building block sized pieces. Love the toy & very nice quality.

Great toy for little hands and motor skillsApr 05, 2010 Bought this for my 19 month old. I keep them in the car for her to tinker with. They are quite large, so no worries about choking hazards at all. With a baby sister on the way, that was a huge plus. The quality is really impressive and the colors are wonderful. Plus, safe water-based stains make this a reassuring buy. Plan Toys is a great company and we have severals toys from them! I am always impressed by the quality and how they rate superior in safety tests!

Really, really cute toyDec 22, 2009 I have no idea how my niece will like it (it's a Christmas present), but *I* love it, and so does my father. The toy is incredibly well-made, of ingenious design, and bigger than it appears in the pictures. I can hardly wait to see what my niece does with it. If I can, I will post an update about this product.

Love it, butOct 06, 2009 My daughter's are 12 months and almost 3 years old. We previously purchased my daughter a workbench type toy but she never seemed interested in it. We purchased this as a travel toy...meaning something to take along on a long plane ride. She LOVED it. She kept unscrewing and rescrewing the pieces on in different patterns. It was nice that they included two bolts as my younger daughter likes to hold the other...not interested in the act of screwing the pieces on or off yet. I love the fact that it is a larger toy, I thought they would be smaller, but they are a good weight as well and I don't have to worry about it being a choking hazard for the younger one. The only thing is that I wish it included more pieces to screw on and off. I would definitely buy it again as a present for another child.

Great eco-friendly toy for fine motor skillsFeb 28, 2009 I bought this for my son's 2nd birthday and he likes screwing and unscrewing the pieces into different designs. He especially likes the yellow pieces( his fav. colour). I like that it helps refine fine motor skills of finger dexterity and bilateral coordination. I am glad that is is eco-friendly an child safe. Highly recommend. Fits nice in pocketbook and diaper bag too. Keeps him busy at doctor's office, restaurants, and anywhere else you don't want them wondering around. Plan Toys is one of the few "e-zero" companies.
