Product Description

Baby may not be ready to pick up a 7-10 split, but this cute farm animal set lets tots take a fun first try at bowling. Toss the colorful jingling ball at 6 smiling pin-shaped farm critters and hear their different rattling sounds as they tumble. Each pin has a number 1-6 on it. Set includes playing tips and comes in a convenient carrying case with handle. Ball and animal pins are cotton/polyester blend. Specific farm animals may vary. Imported.

4.0 out of 5 stars A fun toy August 2, 2006

By Caitlin Kendall

This is a nice little set of plush animal bowling pins and a soft ball with which to knock them down. We purchased it when our youngest child was an infant (he's now 16 months) and his brother was a toddler set on throwing everything he could get his hands on. The soft aspect of the toys drew us to them, as did the different sounds, which would appeal to the baby. As it turns out, neither of them have ever really used it for the intended purpose - the older child (now 2.5 years) prefers body bowling over using the ball! He sets up some of the pins and then jumps off of the couch into the middle of them. I have only two complaints about the toys. First of all, they attract animal hair and other floor muck very easily and are difficult to clean. We have two dogs, and the pins often seem to have more dog hair on them than the dogs! Secondly, they can be hard for the kids to stand up on the carpet. After a few tries on his own, the 2 year old gets frustrated and walks away or, if he's in a bad mood, starts tossing them all over the living room. Ultimately, this is probably a set better suited to a pet-free household or a no/low pile carpet floor.

1.0 out of 5 stars Unstable Pins October 30, 2006

By H. Obrien

I hate to be the bad apple, but these pins were more frustrating for my 20-month-old than fun. It is very difficult to get the pins to stand up...even for an adult. And, if you have a pet, pet hair really sticks to the fabric they're made of.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Toy October 1, 2005

By Mrs. P. L. Smith

I bought this for my second grandson's 1st birthday. The whole family loves it. (even the adults) The ball makes noise and the pins are soft enough that even if a pin battle breaks out it doesn't hurt.

Definitly a winner!
