I bought this for my daughter because I thought it was a good value with the music and lights, and the four figurines it comes with. However, I am very dissapointed with the quality of this piece. The care bear clouds basically become unhooked and fall off the ferris wheel whenever you turn it. That makes it difficult to use in the manner it was intended.

I bought this for my three year old who is obsessed with care Bears. She loves it. The "cars" come off and she uses them as bed for the bears. The only thing we do not like about it is the short amount of music it plays. You must keep spinning it to keep it playing. Overall well worth the money for a Care Bear fanatic.

Just got this toy for my daughter, and she loves it. The ferris wheel plays music and the lights flash as you manually spin it by turning the star buddy.

It took a little time for my four year old to get used to, the buckets that spin on the ferris wheel can be easily knocked off while trying to load the bears into their seat, and you need to push the bear down fairly hard so they will not fall out as it's spinning. It took her a little practice. Also, it needs to be spun not too fast and somewhat evenly or the bears may fall out/seats fall off.

Appropriate for 3 1/2 or so plus, where the child will understand, may be frustrating for a younger child. I consider it educational only because it takes some dexterity to load and work, good practice for little fingers. And kind of loud, no volume control if noise bothers you. And it comes with only 3 bears but 4 seats, luckily we had some at home already.

My 4 yr. old daughter who is obsessed with Care Bears got this for Christmas. My daughter lives and breathes the care bears but has absolutely zero interest in this toy! Like other reviewers have said, the cloud seats come off constantly. Once you get the clouds back on (which takes a fair amount of dexterity), then you have to really push the care bears down hard to get them to stay on right, and, in doing this, the cloud cars come off again! The other downer is that the music only plays when the toy is turned manually - maybe it's just me, but it just makes it so unappealing when the music stops the instant you stop turning it. Really only worth about half the price.

I got this for my 4-year-old daughter a few days ago. As soon as she got it she noticed that there was not a fourth care bear (only three come with the toy, although there are four seats). Then she got very frustrated because the seats kept falling off whenever she would spin the ferris wheel. The good thing is she continued to play with it, especially with the care bears individually, so it wasn't a total waste of money. This is probably a good toy for children who are patient enough to spin the wheel slowly so that the bears don't fall out. But if your little one gets frustrated easily, watch out!

This ferris wheel makes a ton of noise. And the cloud carts fall off easily, making it difficult for smaller children who can't easily put them back on. My girls play with the little care bears that came with this set separately but don't have the patience to set up the ferris wheel. They came out with a newer version of this toy that works A LOT better!

I just bought this toy for my 4 year old daughter and she loves it. The music is loud, but I put a piece of clear tape over the speaker before I gave it to her and she doesn't even know the difference. The clouds do fall off if you spin it too hard and the bears are a little hard to get into their seats, so I don't think it would be a good choice for a child under 3 years old.

My two year old daughter received this toy for her birthday a month ago and loves it. She learned within minutes not to spin too hard and gets a kick out of putting the bears into the little clouds then puts them onto the ferris wheel. Definately worth the money.

My daughter who just turned 4 LOVES this toy! I must admit, I do too! HA! It is the cutest thing. Sure, if you spin it too fast, the chairs fall off, but easily put back on! We bought it along with the castle and have collected all the other pieces. The airplane is very cute! My daughter plays with these things a lot.
It is about the only one of her toys that I don't mind playing along with! :)! Note: sometimes we have a ferris wheel disaster and try to spin all the chairs off. We love it!

My daughter received this toy for her birthday last year, and has yet to even play with it as a ferris wheel. The clouds keep falling off, and the bears do not stay on well at all. My daughter prefers to play with the bears by themselves, and the ferris wheel has been relocated to the bottom of her toy box, completely unused. We could have saved the money and bought her the individual bears to play, atleast then she would have used the toy for what it was intended. It is also too loud, with no possible volumn except offensive! I wouldn't waste my money on this toy.
