A cute product. Just like a I remember from my childhood. My children enjoy playing with this one. I didn't even know they still made Colorforms until our occupational therapist brought them over for my almost-2 year old twins. The beginning age range for this product starts at age 3, but my 23-month kids still enjoy it.

Unlike a previous reviewer, I had no problems at all in taking the Colorforms Stickons off of the page. There is a little arrow with an instruction to "peel here", and when I did that, all of the white background came off and each of the stickons came off the paper in about 2 minutes. Some were easier than others to take off, but I certainly didn't rip or tear anything, and didn't need to use scissors at all.

I have always been a big fan of Colorforms, having loved them as a child. My youngest daughter received this as a gift and I had to spend 45 minutes getting the pieces apart. The characters are not punched out of the plastic, the perforations do not go all the way through. Each individual piece had to ultimately be cut apart with a scissors, that was after many tears on the part of my daughter because she couldn't make it work and some of the characters got ripped. All in all very frustrating for a child and VERY CHEAP on the part of the manufacturer.

It isn't so easy to find removable stickers anymore and my daughter loves Dora, so this is the perfect toy for rainy days or waiting at restaurants!
