Fun & Makes You use Your Brain!
I use this in my classroom and my kids love it! I love how they really try to solve the patterns without giving up until they succeed!

Good set
I like this simple Montessori toy which helps the kids to focus and follow the pattern on the cards. It comes with a nice base slot to keep the cards and hourglass timer. Also, you can use the box to hold the main board in place which is kind of neat! I can see that it also challenges the kids to think and solve the problem - because when you put in 4 pegs into one slot, you cannot move other pegs horizontally, making tiny tots to think of a way to solve it. I like it. Would recommend this toy!

My toddler enjoys
I got this for my toddler and I to play together. He is 3 and he enjoys trying to figure out how to get the right prices in order. It is just challenging enough to work their little brain without it being so challenging that they become frustrated. Very nice quality solid wood. This will definitely be around for a few years, this is a good one if you have kids who are rough on things.. they can’t easily break this. I appreciate the way it all packs away neatly within the contents on the game. Would 10/10 recommend!

Fun puzzle
This is a great little brain game, it comes with a variety of puzzles to solve and being able to use either the solid colors or the shapes adds for another challenge. I would say that 3 might be a bit young without help but it could be a good activity to do together. Probably around 5 or 6 years old would be able to do this independently. I wish that the puzzle part connected to the bottom piece when storing so that they could not get separated and the cards fall out. However, I do enjoy this and think it is a great activity.

Cute as can be!
I am very pleased with this puzzler! The entire family has taken a go at it, and while it holds the attention of the younger ones longer, I cannot deny it is just plain ol' fun. We tuck the timer away so that Little Guy can enjoy the fun, too ... while the older kiddoes enjoy racing against the clock and themselves. The board itself, as well as the puzzle cards are two sided ... one with simple colors and the second with colored shapes. Double the fun. Excellent quality: the wood is sanded smooth to the touch, the colors are soft and pleasing and with a bit of care, the pieces slide fluidly around the board. When play is finished, any unattached pieces fit neatly in the frame. I find we do not use the included stand, so I might punch holes and attach a loop to the cards if they begin to stray errantly from the box, but all-in-all, very pleased. A wonderful value and would make a perfect gift,

Adaptable for different ages
This little puzzle board is good for little ones to practice fine motor skills moving the pegs around and sorting colors, can be used for slightly older children to try and match the pattern cards, and has a timer for children old enough to use it as a game or challenge. It's sturdy enough for maybe kindergarten age, but I will be watching my preschool students closely to make sure it doesn't get broken by rough use. It seems to made of pine and could have slightly smoother edges, but is probably fine for children older than my students. Nice smooth movement on the colored pegs, and like that it's made to store everything inside.

Fun without batteries
This is a cute wooden logic puzzle that asks kids to slide shape and color pieces to fit the pattern shown to them on a card. The pieces don't come out of their continuous track, so advanced planning is required. With 18 cards printed on both sides, there are 36 puzzles to solve. You could also solve for rows or columns all of one color or shape, etc. There is a knack to it that older kids will grasp quickly. A small sand timer is included that runs about a minute.The user recommendation is 3+ because of small parts if it breaks.The 12 color pieces on one side of the board are attached to the shape pieces on the other side. The puzzle board is meant to be placed into notches inside the wooden tray, and the puzzle looks like an open laptop in that position. Kids who tried it out for me preferred to hold the puzzle board in their hands while they slid the pieces around.The light weight wood is all nicely sanded and has rounded corners. I put a drop of plain water on the surface, and it beaded up, indicating there might be a light sealer applied as a finish. But a light sealer might not be enough to wash off marks or stains so I'd ask kids to wash their hands before play.There were no instructions included, but the box it came in gave clues about how to set it up. Everything stores inside the wooden box, which is 9.25 by 7.7 inches and an inch and one-eighth deep. The puzzle board fits neatly on top.As for the timer - none of my testers wanted to use it. The only info to be gained is whether someone solves the puzzle in less than a minute, exactly a minute, or more than a minute. Pull out a stopwatch if you want to make this a timed competition.

Great problem solving toy.
This is a very nicely cut 100% wood toy.comes with 18 cards that are double sided.There is a nice wood holder for the card the child is working with.The board with the movable parts is reversible. Solid colors on one side and shapes on the other side.This is great for problem solving cognitive skill building.This would make a great gift or homeschooling tool.This could be used in the care. The only reason I wouldn't say its a good travel toy is that the lid just sits on top and is not help on at all. It could easily be knocked off in the car and the cards would go everywhere. If the lid slid into place or had a latch it would be very travel friendly.We like this toy a lot.

Great screen alternative
Yup, pretty awesome. Just like pictured and described, slide the buttons around to complete the puzzle, and (I believe) 36 different puzzles to complete, not bad. The puzzles are numbered as well so you can keep track of whether or not you've done them. But every time you start a puzzle it's like you're doing it from scratch again coz the pieces are always gonna be in different places. One side is just circles, the other has patterns. Very simple, yet very attractive. Perfect for the car! Very happy and would def purchase as a gift.
