I bought my twin sons this puzzle/peg toy for their 2nd birthday. They have loved this toy from the start. It is very colorful and that initially attracted them to it. Then they enjoyed putting pegs in the different holes. At first it was random, now at almost 3 years old, they like to sort by colors (orange pegs in the orange piece)and see how high the pegs can stack. They also love to count the pegs in each piece. The entire toy is very durable and if you lose a piece, Lauri will replace the part for a nominal charge. I love all of Lauri's toys and we bought the peg board and additional pegs. The primer pak is also a fun kit to take on the road. We take these toys to church, restaurants, and they are a great distraction when I have to make phone calls. They are quiet toys and they require no batteries.

I bought this toy for my two year old, and he loves it. It keeps him busy for long periods of time, and gives him his own math to do. I lay out the numbers in order and count for him, and then let him go from there. He is learning about what the numbers look like and what they mean, and having fun while he's at it. He has learned to count to five, and has a total blast playing with this toy. The chunky shapes are perfect for little hands. Not only that, he is learning about colors and how to stack. Even my five year old plays with it. Highly recommended.

My 20 month old quickly tired of this product that in retrospect was advertised misleadingly. Consisting of only numbers 1-5 with colored pegs that insert into each corresponding number appeared overly-simple for the age range specified. Making matters worse, it was hugely overpriced as compared to the Little Leap (Leap Frog) toy I purchased along with this.

My daughter (now 3 yrs old) has been playing with this toy for over a year and still LOVES IT!!!. This toy is very fun, educational, and durable. It is brightly colored with many educational and fun activities. You can use it is a train puzzle or number puzzle, each train section has a number and enough peg holes to match that number, you can count the pegs to match the numbers in that part of the train, you can match peg colors to the train colors, pegs also stack up. I can not say enough about great things about this toy!
