I purchased this item to go with the Carnegie scale model dinosaurs for a combined Christmas present for my 3 and 6 year old nephews. WOW, did they love it. The mat offers lots of creative play with the dinosaur models and then you can pack it all up by folding the mat into itself, which creates a box for storage.

I bought this as a second gift to give with a package of dinosaurs. It turned out to be my favorite gift to give. The mat (vinyl) is brightly colored and somewhat padded. The four corners are creased and fold up to form a square box. Then there is a separate lid to pop on the top. There are straps on the sides to keep the lid on. I think for a 3 to 7 year old who likes dinosaurs it is a great gift. They can take the toys with them in the car, to a friends house, outside to play. Having the box and lid, I assume, encourages the child to put their toys in it to carry them around. I only give it 3 stars on durability because it is constructed of cardboard and vinyl.

really like the fact that you can fold the map into a storage box and it is very sturdy and nice to look at when stored away. The grandkids love playing with it and we bought more dinosaurs. HIghly recommend it.

My son (4yrs old) received this as a gift. He loves it! It's very easy for him to fold up and zip. The only drawback is that it said it had 4 dinos. included. We only had 2 in the box. But we had bought a bunch to add anyway, so it wasn't a big deal. The box/play mat is very well done. The colors are true and vibrant. Durable? Heck ya! My son is tough on his things and it's still working for us!

This is the second ZipBin set I have purchased for my grandchildren - this is the Dinosaur playset and I first found ZipBin as a car playset, and there are other ZipBins as well. This toy is a box with a lid that starts out flat but becomes a box by zipping well placed durable zippers. It is a well conceived and colorful toy that comes with dinosaurs plus the bottom of the ZipBin comes out and opens into a flat play mat with a dino habitat. Everything is then stored in the box, and there is room for other toys - more dinosaurs or trees, whatever the play session involved. It is wonderful for traveling because the child puts all the toys in the ZipBin and carries it away easily. If your child or grandchild is already dinosaur crazy, then this toy will just extend and facilitate the pretend play they are already doing - but the clean up and storage make parents very happy.

my nephew loves the Zipbin. He has spent hours playing with it for the last month, he adds his other dinosaurs that are not a part of the set and what's great is that he's not driving my sister in-law crazy with toys to clean up!

This was a gift from Santa Claus and it goes everywhere with my 4 year old son. The only thing I was a bit disappointed with was the one very small "pink" colored dinosaur that came with the playset. I went out and bought a group of dinosaurs in a package to put with the playset. It's a great carrying case and for the money, the color is brilliant and case is sturdy. I'd defintely recommend this and suggest to buy some extra dinosaurs if you really want the "wow" effect.

I bought this along with the bucket of dinos for my 6 year old nephew. About an hour after opening these gifts, he disappeared. His mom thought she heard crying in his bedroom. When she looked to see what was going on, my nephew was in his room with all of the dinos and playmat growling and playing with them. He spent at least two hours playing contently with his new stuff. Priceless!! Thanks for a great product!

My little 2 year old loves dinosaurs! This is the perfect toy for him and any child who loves using their imagination and learning about dinosaurs. The playmate is two sided -- one has all sorts of different landmarks for the dinosaurs to "travel" to. The other has a lot of different dinosaurs on it. The BEST feature by far to me as a mom is that this playmate zips up on the 4 corners to make a box AND the top velcros on to make a perfect carrying container for the dinosaurs. It's a win/win for child and parent!

My three year old grandson loved this. And the bin is large enough to hold all his dino toys
