 Great for many ages December 15, 2008
B. Malfatto (Oceanside, CA United States)
We got this when my oldest was a baby. At first all he could do was pull it. He is now 3 and he loves putting it together and pulling it. I also have a 1 1/2 yr old and she's startin to figure out how to fit it together. Great for learning and a fun pull toy too. We have had to use super glue on it a couple times (the "hitch" pieces came out).
 Good, with drawbacks. December 5, 2008

We've had this toy through two of our toddlers now. I agree with other posters, putting these together is frustrating for little ones. And after awhile, the pieces start to come apart. Not a problem if you keep wood glue available, but still a maintenance issue. As a pull toy, the entire thing is a bit heavy and unwieldy. The best use of this toy is assebling just the giraffe so my toddler can pull it. Unlike many pull toys, the string is nice and long. Good for use, but also a possible strangulation hazard. I love Melissa and Doug products, but this isn't my favorite.

My in-laws got this for my daughter and she absolutely loves it. A great pull-toy for when she was first learning to walk, now that she's getting bigger she also likes the puzzle aspect of trying to put the animals together into a train. The animals are brightly-colored and the paint & construction seem very durable. We're very happy with this toy.

First: This product is bigger than I expected, it might be somewhat difficult for a wobbly toddler to carry it around. But it's colorful and eyecatching. And unlike most pull along toys it can be used as a construction toy too. The pieces are big enough for little hands to handle and putting it together is fun and fairly easy, so your little one won't get frustrated.
 Attractive and sturdy, but not easy May 28, 2007

I own dozens of "Melissa & Doug" toys for my children and they are all fabulous. This one though, as the other reviewer stated, is fairly difficult to use for younger children. The pieces stack on little pegs, but the pegs are slightly off center, so they will only stack facing one direction. My kids lose interest fairly quickly with this one because they take it apart and then can't put it back together again.
