Product Description

Product Description

This electronic activity workshop is all play and no work! Children will enjoy the colorful shapes and the sounds it makes as they explore its many fun projects. If they use the pretend hammer to hit one of the three shapes on the bench they'll hear silly cartoon-type "boings" and "brrrings." Two different ball drops let them "drill press" or pound balls through holes and into bins. There's also a shape sorter, a clicker ruler for number counting, and a put-and-take door. Workshop includes 13 accessories, and requires two AA alkaline batteries (not included).

We purchased this item for our son's first birthday a month ago. When he gets home from daycare it is the first toy he plays with. He loves to put the balls in the different holes and watch where they come out. He enjoys finding different items from around the house to put into the little cupboard in the center, then opening it up and taking them out, and starting all over again. He enjoys the little mechanism that you put the balls into and pull the lever, and out pop the balls. The little telephone is a nice touch, too. He likes to put it up to his ear and babble. I have only two concerns about this toy. The first concern is how lightweight the work bench is. The first few times he played with it he used it as support to stand up, and if I hadn't been right next to him he would have tipped both the toy and himself over. The second concern is the size of the holes. He has reached into them a couple times to retrieve a ball, and has gotten his hand stuck. Overall, I would recommend this toy as a great one for you and your child to play with together.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great fun, but young kids should be supervised., July 28, 2001

We received this toy for our son's first birthday. He really likes it and plays with it a lot. He didn't understand how to do everything at first (like use the hammer to hit the shapes through the holes) but that means that the toy will grow with him and should keep him on his toes for quite some time. He quickly mastered putting the balls through all the holes and he really likes pulling all the containers out.

We don't let him play with the toy unsupervised though. He leans on the toy and tries to look into the top slots. This has resulted in the whole toy almost falling over with our son on top. He also stuck his arm into the green tube on the left and got it stuck. I had to lift him out of it while he screamed.

Overall we are really happy with this toy. Mainly because our son can't seem to get enough of it.

Our son received this toy for a birthday present (age 1). He immediately liked it and it is played with multiple times each day. It is a perfect size -- a big toy to the little guys, but small enough to easily move from room to room and not take up much space in a play area. The educational value is great for a infant/toddler toy. It has multiple shapes and colors. It also teaches concepts like object permanence and cause and effect. The phone is also a nice touch. Our son will frequently pick it up throughout the day and say "Daddy" and pretend to talk to Daddy at work. The only drawback (which is very minimal) is that some of the decals were difficult to put on. I would highly recommend this toy!
