I love toys that don't make noise, and apparently so does my son. he is 2 and this toy is played with often. we count triangles and name colors. Nice quiet toy!

My 3yo daughter LOVES this toy, even though it's a baby toy... she loves making different shapes out of the triangles, telling us what they are. Exceptional quality, as usual from Haba...

I purchased this toy for my nephew who is 5 months old. It is very well made and brightly colored. The only gripe I have is that the toy is much smaller than I originally thought. It is no bigger than the palm of my hand. I thought it would be bigger than that. After finding that it was smaller than I expected I questioned the price, but the quality is excellent so I am happy with it. These make better stocking stuffers for Christmas than an actual "big gift" for a child.

My nephew ADORES this toy. He's nearly 9 months now, and he loves pushing and pulling at it, turning it inward and outward and so-forth.

Like someone else mentioned, Adults like this one, too. If my nephew isn't playing with it, my sister is, or my mother is, or I am.

Although this was purchased for our 8 month old, kids of all ages (adults too) find this toy to be very interesting. It's a fabulous teething toy as well as offering manipulative activity.

Another favorite HABA toy for this age are the Discovery Blocks!

My son enjoys chewing on this toy. We purchased many of the HABA toys for infants, and all are great, of exceptional quality, and unique to most toys out there.

I recently purchased 4 small Haba toys for my 9 month old son because I want him to spend more time with simple, wooden toys that are safe to chew on. This Trix toy was immediately his favorite. He loves to chew on it, but also crawls around the house with it and bangs it on things. He holds onto it longer than most toys. He hasn't figured out how to change the shapes yet, but I change it periodically for him. I think it will be even more interesting when he is ready to explore that part of it. Haba's Flapsi is his second favorite. I'm sure every child is different, but I can only speak for mine...he doesn't spend much time with Haba's Ballino or Haba's Triangle.

My 8 month old daughter likes to teethe on this toy. She hasn't figured out how to manipulate it into different shapes / patterns yet. My husband and I have probably played with it more than her. I think the interest will come with age. It is not made in China so we feel a little better about it being used as a teether.

My daughter loved this toy from 6 months on. I often gave it to her in the car if she was fussy, as I did today. However, today I was shocked to see her mouth full of the blue stain when I got her out of the carseat!!! Her newly errupted sharp little tooth scraped stain off of the toy. Thank goodness it is non-toxic-- but clearly not safe as a teether, as it is marketed.

I only buy wooden toys or other natural materials. I love Haba and this toy is really a very entertaining one. The triangles can be manipulated in many different ways, the toy is very small so fits in diaper bags easily, and finally, because it makes no noise, is great for plane rides or travel in general.

All the great things aside, I am quite disappointed that this toy chipped within weeks of use. I am very careful and never let this toy come in contact with water, except for the expected mouthing by the baby. I don't feel comfortable with the idea of my boy ingesting the supposedly non-toxic paint. I would go for toys that are unfinished or stained, rather than painted.
