Children aren't real good with their hands. This toy is VERY difficult for me to wind up much less my 3 year old grandchildren. Since it is awkward, it doesn't catch or keep children's attention very long. Could be a really good toy if it weren't so awkward. I've had much better. I would highly discourage this purchase for anyone.

My son loves to help my husband around the house. I had the hardest time keeping him away from the real tape measure and then found this tape measure online. Now I just have to say, get your own 'measure' (as he calls it) and there is no more fighting. It's safe and is long enough that he feels he is actually helping daddy. Last night he told me 'look mommy, I am counting too' Great toy.

I bought this for my son's 2nd birthday and it's something he just doesn't want to put down!

It is a bit tough to wind the tape back in, so he pulls it out, hands it back to me to rewind, and then pulls it out again.

We also used it one time, when we couldn't locate our tape measure - so it's fun for parents, too!
