Our little guy got this puzzle when he was 23 months. It took some demonstration and help to get the idea of the magnet. When he first started, he finally ended up just placing the magnet on the car, without employing the "dangle method."

Now, at 25 months, this puzzle is a breeze. After a few times, he knew where the cars should go. Now he sometimes just feigns ignorance, giving me a sly look and grin as he places the piece on the wrong spot and croons, "Nooooo."

The addition of the magnet challenge adds interest. We can challenge him to get the blue car, or the pink one, etc. Helps him with his colors.

The recommended minimum age of 3 yrs is, I believe, may be too old. I'd suggest 2 yrs as a good age.

I think this puzzle is adorable, but my kids find it booooring. The string with the magnet is rather long. The younger kids, who usually find wooden puzzles interesting, don't really have the control and eye hand coordination to keep the magnet still enough to catch the pieces. They tried it with a shorter string, but it still wasn't exciting. They did like playing pretend with the crunched cars - but as a puzzle it's a bust.

Both the two and a half year old and one year old enjoy playing with this wooden puzzle with magnetic pieces and wand. We are glad we found these.
