Great for learning shapes!

We bought this for our son as a Christmas present. As he was not quite two yet, I thought he might not totally get the concept and that this would be a toy I could put up for later. Boy was I wrong. He loves this puzzle set. I find he plays with it longer and gets less frustrated if I first let him pick out which picture he wants to "build" and then take the necessary shapes out and place them next to him. He is very proud of himself once he gets the pieces in then he'll give himself a big round of applause(which mommy and daddy do also). Great self-esteem builder and fun way to teach shapes!

One of our favorites!

Our two children (12 months and 23 months) just love this set. The boards and pieces are very sturdy. We like that the boards are two sided. Good variety and amount of shapes. This is a classic toy that will last for years- we see it as one that we will keep even after our children have grown out of it- great to keep around for visiting kids.

a must have

This item is a must have! My two year old chooses it over just about anything else. I always seek out Melissa and Doug toys because of their quality and educational value and this one is one of mine and my daughter's favorites!

Great educational product

My son love this toy. It also reenforces this shapes and colors. it's a stepping stone for geometric patterns

Short Longevity

We loved this set. It is great for very young kids and they like it. However, the time between learning the principle and getting bored because it became too easy, was very short.
About 2 months ago we bought Snappers by Toysie - a pattern block puzzle. My children (with 3 years apart!) both still play with it.
It seems like my youngest child will be using it for the next 3 years. That is the lifespan for a toy!
