great activities with this

Fun and well made!My toddler loves it, really easy to use . Mostly made of wood but has some rubberish material in it

I'm giving 5 stars because I dont think my one complaint is really a big deal. I think this is a great product. The quality is really good. It reinforces number, shape, and color learning in addition to practicing lacing. My daughter loves the caterpillar. My only complaint is that there is no end piece or anything to stop the beads from coming off the other end when lacing them. Like I said, not a huge deal. We get creative and just lace the other end back through some of the beads and it holds up very well. Overall I'm very pleased and my daughter enjoys it. She's 18mths now and I think we've had it for maybe 2 months already.

I purchased this for my grandson with fine motor control issues. He enjoys stringing the beads and it is very comfortable for his hands. The only thing that needs fixing is that the string separates in the middle when pulled and blocks come off at the end. I am still trying to figure a way to safely attach a new larger end to them.

The media could not be loaded. These would be a nice gift. They seem durable with smooth edges and well done numbers and shapes. The string(s) that came with it have easy to hold ends made of wood. They can hook together or be used separately. Either way there’s nothing to stop the beads from falling off once strung. I will have to figure something out that will be child safe. The video shows the numbers side and the picture shows the corresponding dots side of the blocks.

This is a fun sturdy toy for my son. However the pieces are definitely small enough to choke on. They can easily fit through a toilet paper roll with room to spare. Also there’s no stopper, so when my son strings a bead it just falls off the other side, you have to string a bead twice to lock it into place which takes away a lot of the length as the string is pretty short. I would recommend maybe going with something with larger beads.

Bought for my 20 month old grandson and he loves it! He will bring it to me to play along. He loves threading the pieces onto the string and saying the colors or shapes. We are working on the numbers. I do wish there was a stopper on one end so he could wiggle it around on the floor once all the pieces are threaded on, but the safety latch in the center is a great idea. The “flower” piece can be turned to make ratcheting sounds and the caterpillar makes squeaking noises but he’s not strong enough so I have to pinch it to make it squeak.

Our OT therapist recommended this to help with grasping and it became our son’s favorite new toy. Mostly to chew on the string, but the blocks are colorful and two of the bigger ones make noise.
