 Great Item December 30, 2008
CarmelV (Aurora, CO)
This is a great toy. I find myself making patterns with it too. I really like that it's magnetic. The pieces stay in place perfectly, so no one gets frustrated if the board gets moved. It comes in a very nice storage container thats durable and portable. Great item!
A really fabulous buy September 29, 2008

This is an excellent tool for building an understanding of color, shapes, and patterns. There is so much room for learning by using this toy! And best of all, it's fun! And, for us moms out there, keeping up with it is a breeze. It comes with it's own vinyl storage case, and who can beat magnetic pieces that stick to the board to ease your child's frustrations if the pieces don't "stay" where they are put. The pictures included are really cute - I especially enjoy the duck pattern - and my daughter loves putting them together. All-in-all a really wonderful (and cheap!) investment for hours and hours of fun, stimulating activity! Kudos yet again, Melissa & Doug, for a really great product.
 Great learning toy but shapes don't fit together September 18, 2008

I love Melissa & Doug toys because they are educational, innovative and lead-free. However, though this toy is great because of the educational aspect and the magnetics, my son and I were disappointed that the shapes don't align and fit together properly because they have rounded tips. This makes it hard to make the patterns it comes with. If your child would be frustrated because they want it to fit perfectly, then you might consider their other pattern block sets in the wooden box. They have a Beginner one and another one which has more pieces. These have straight lines because they are not magnetic. Here are the links to these two products.

Great for homeschoolers' younger siblings! September 4, 2008

We got this for our 3-year-old son so that he would have "seat work" to do at the table while our older homeschool children do their math. He just LOVES that he can sit and do his math along with the big kids! It keeps him entertained for a good 45 minutes to an hour! I would love to find more inserts since I can see him eventually asking for different pictures. The blank board is great for free design and creativity. I'm extremely happy with our purchase!
 Great toy for teaching logic and shapes May 29, 2008
Melissa Smith (Wisconsin)
My two year old loves the Melissa and Doug toys, but this is one of his favorites. He learned his shapes and colors a few months ago, and this allows him to apply his new knowledge. The magnets are strong enough that they don't slide around too much and the carrying case is a bonus - making it easy to keep all the pieces together. At his age, toys don't hold his attention for a long time, but this one keeps him busy for longer than most. Another great toy from Melissa and Doug!
