We are on our third crocodile dentist! It is a wonderful wonderful toy that my developmentally delayed preschooler and his typical friend all LOVE. But I carry it to the park in a large toy bag and the past two copies have broken...when you press a tooth it won't stay down anymore. A good way around this might be to keep it in a box of it's own.

This is also a wonderful toy for parents following the RDI Steve Gutstein social therapy for children with Autism. Because this toy has an element of surprise, as you press each tooth you never know if this is the tooth that will cause the jaw to snap shut! Note: the snapping shut is fairly gentle and safe for preschoolers!

The toy was much smaller than I thought it would be but it makes an OK travel toy because there is no loose pieces. Also, it did not take my 4yr old long to realise that the tooth ( a different one each time) which is stiff to push is the one which makes the croc's mouth close.

This game is wonderfully simple. It comes fully assembled and has no removable parts to lose. Every time you open the croc's mouth a new tooth will act as the trigger to make the mouth snap shut.

You can play a winnerless version of this game where the point of the game is the surprise for all of the players when the crocodile snaps at one player's finger. By playing this game so that there are no winners, I have taught my little one the value of taking turns for the enjoyment of all.

This thing bites pretty hard!!! I love to play it as does my wife. My 4 year old daughter likes to carry it around, but is afraid to play it. She gets scared when it bites.

I have this toy in my 5th grade class to play with,so I bought it and it was awsome!I just did not like it when I first got it, it chomped down on me really hard.

My son who was 4yrs old when he got this toy and loved it and is still playing with it. Also its great for the entire family.

My daughter recieved this for Christmas when she was 3. SHe is now almost 5 and still loves to play with this toy. It is a great game to play when mommy is too tired to actually get up and play something that requires energy. She has learned how to tell when the Crocodile is going to snap. But she laughs hysterically when mommy or daddy gets bit. I highly recomend this toy!!! Is is wonderful enjoyment.

I love this game and ordered it for a Christmas gift. Be aware that this is the SMALL/TRAVEL version of the game. I did not expect that when I placed my order.

I bought this for my 4 year-old, and the whole family loves it!! It's a simple game, but we have marathons..we never know who will end up getting "chomped"...I am buying this for my daughters friend who will be five in a few weeks. He plays this every time he is over. I highly recommend Crocodile Dentist Puzzler for a fun family game!!!

It broke, I swear, the second time my child touched the teeth. I have never seen a toy do that. Maybe I just got a lemon.
