It seems like everyday my nearly 3-year-old son finds a new way to play with this set. He used to just like putting the pegs in the holes and then poking them out from the other side. Then he started building towers by stacking the pegs. Then he said they were not towers but musical instruments, such as trumpets and flutes. Then he started filling all the holes to make a birthday cake with candles to blow out. Lately he likes to put the pegs together in patterns, e.g., blue, green, blue green... See what I mean?

We have Lauri Tall Stacker Pegs, and these are similar, but I like them better for younger babies. Their bigger tops make it easier to stack for my 1.5-year-old daughter. She just likes stacking them and taking them apart, but my 3-year-old enjoys stacking them by color and making patterns. This is a very good set for that. I think the Lauri pegs are better for older children, so it really depends on the age of your kids.

My 22 month old twins LOVE this toy. They love to connect them and stick them in the wholes on the board. Yesterday while doing this toy with one of my daughters she connected only the same colors! Purple on purple, blue on blue, etc. I was so proud! Great toy, provides lots of fun for me and my twins. Oh, and they're fine motor skills have really improved with this toy!

The pegboard and pegs were purchased for my mother who has had a stroke and lost most of her ability to function normally. When she was going through physical therapy they used pegs to help with her motor skills. she enjoyed doing this very much even though it was a challenge because of her disability. However, when finished she had a sense of accomplishment that she had done something for herself. this set of pegs and board has worked great for us. It arrived on time and I was kept informed on the status of when to expect its arrival. jas

I bought this for my developmentally delayed 3 year old grandson. He loves it. He stacks the pegs and pokes them out. It is great for manual dexterity.

I have owned one of these Pegboard Sets for about 15 years for my grandchildren. When it came time to buy my great niece a gift, I knew exactly what to buy. All of the kids love the pegboard. They spend lots of time making birthday cakes and towers, loading the board by color, and making designs. It's a great toy and it doesn't require batteries!

My boys ages 3 and 4 find endless possibilities for play with this peg set from towers to pattern creation. Very durable.

I used to teach preschool and we always had this toy in the classrooms. I ordered these for my 2 year old twins and they are lots of fun. My daughter likes to group the colors and my son likes to make the tallest tower he can. Don't be surprised if you get presented "peg birthday cakes" since this seems like a universal use for these. Simple toy that is lots of fun.

I bought this toy to help my 16 month old daughter with her fine motor skills. I think it's a good product. The pegboard is very light and she carries it around. It's easy to put the pegs in and take them out. The pegs are a good size for her to use. If your looking for a toy that will help develop fine motor skills this is something I would get.

I WORKED IN PRE SCHOOL AND IT IS A GREAT EDUCATIONAL TOY FOR TODDLERS AND ALL LEARNERS.
