The music for this toy is very loud, but there is an off switch if you want to turn off the grating sound, but still let your little darling(s) enjoy the toy. The little Eddie and Maggie that come with this are very cute. My little girl enjoys funhouse mirror piece of this toy, but the little knock over the bottles piece is not so great.

My family likes this toy but we too found the laughter more than a little annoying. While shopping one day we discovered that the ferris wheels still in the the box at the store didn't make the laughing sound. We realized that there is a small plastic tab located on the bottom of the ferris wheel that is meant to be removed when the toy is taken out of the box. This lets the toy makes the extra noises. Luckily, we still had our original packaging so we found the plastic tab, inserted it back into the slot, and taped it in place. Voila! Problem solved.

I like the ferris wheel, but its music could stand improvement. The speaker for this toy is also extraordinarily loud. The music can be turned off with the off switch. My daughter (17 mos) hasn't shown much interest in the mirror, or the knock over the cans game pieces of the toy, but she does enjoy putting the characters in and out of the ferris wheel. The Maggie and Eddie characters that come with this are really cute.

My children received this Little People set for Christmas. They love it. Not only because it's Little People (And I can say that Little People are the one toy they play with every single day!), but because this set features one of their favourie things - rides at the fair!

They love the music of the Ferris Wheel and the "laughter" of the Little People (I think the music is a bit loud and there is no volume control but the kids just think it's great.

My just turned one year old is not the most gentle boy, prefering to throw things around the house than sitting down and playing but this ferris wheel (as with all our Little People) stands up to all their rough play - extremely durable.

A really cute addition to your Little People collection.

This is a must have toy if you purchase the Little People Fun Park because they go so well together. My son loves spinning hte ferris wheel and listening to the music. Little Eddie with his frog in hats taking tickets at the ride is too cute! I put away the bottle and mirror accessories that came with it though because they are a disappointment. They are not that cute or toddler friendly either as the mirror is too small to actually see into and the bottle game piece falls over too easily and is too small for little hands to setup.

I think I love Little People stuff more than my almost 2 year old daughter. This set in particular I think is wonderful because the ferris wheel plays music, and what makes it mom-friendly is the fact that there is also an on and off switch! I have more fun playing with these toys than I think she does which allows us some fun quality play time together.

My son picked this out at the store and played with it in the store and continues to enjoy it at home(sometimes he just plays in store, then when I get the toy home he could care less!). Yes, a volume switch would be nice, but it does capture the loud nerve wracking ambience of an amusement park. My son loves to give the little people a vigorous spin and is especially amused by the fun house mirror. The bottle throw component is less enthralling.

All in all a cute, durable toy which my son is enjoying piecing together.

I bought this for my 23 month old daughter yesterday, she LOVES it. She was so excited while I was putting it together. She will be keeping this at Grandma's house (she spends about 3 days a week there). My daughter especially loved the ferris wheel. She and I both like the music, luckily there is an off switch should Mommy or Grandma need break from the noise.

I also bought two extentions to this set (Little People Surprise Sounds Fun Park & Little People Parading Pals), each of these are so cute and fun.

My daughter's Aunt thought it was such a cute toy (I think she will play with it too and she is 35!). Of course I am looking forward to playing with it myself. :)

I think this is a great investment. If something changes I'll edit this review.

I got this for my daughter about a year and a half ago... she turned 3 today.... and she STILL plays with it! I gave it a 4 for durability only because with the original one we bought, the crank came off and was unfixable, but the store gladly let us exchange it and I happily got a replacement instead of a refund because my daughter loved it so much! I think for the price, its a great value when you consider all the other pieces that come with it as well as the fact that it gets played with so much and you can get add ons for it with the other kits they have for Little People. We now have a ton of those and I am now thinking her little people 'village' that she's creating is even larger than our own house! :P You just can't lose with Little People!

I bought this for my 2 year old daughter. It is really cute and the laughter is uplifting. However, even now at 2 1/2, she cannot put the people in the ferris wheel by herself. The wheel moves when you try to put the people in the seats. Even I have to use some effort to do it. It is not like they just slide on--you have to push them onto pegs in the seat. And, when my duaghter is playing independently, the toy usually gets throw across the room in frustration. So, it has been added to the banned toy collection in the basement.
