  • Great product for 8m-2yr
Size: Standard
The media could not be loaded. My 1 year old son loved playing with this. When he first got it on his first birthday, he wasn’t quite coordinated with it but he eventually got the hang of it. Which I think is the fun part of the toy is figuring out for the littles. It’s a hammer toy so be mindful that it’s a loud one! The sound of wood banging together. Under each “nail” is a see-saw lever that pushes the opposite side up or down. I think this toy is fairly easy to clean and quite durable. It has markings from where the hammer missed the nail but just shows the toy was well loved and used. My older nieces 3 and 5 were easily bored with this toy. But it was perfect for my 1 year old son. ... show more

  • Great Fun
Size: Standard
Ordered two of these, one for each grandkid. One is a one-year old, and the other is eighteen months. I wasn't sure if they were ready for the is toy or not, but both loved it. There are a couple of things I like about it. I grew up with the Fisher-Price and Brio versions, and they were fun, but the pegs would loosen up and fall out and get lost. It also took a lot of coordination and some strength to drive the pegs. With the Melissa and Doug version, the pegs can be pushed by small hands, even without the hammer. They won't fall through and get lost. It is noisy, but the kids seem to love the racket. If it gets too noisy, I guess you could hide the hammer--it will still work. The "whack-a-mole" action where one peg pops up when another is pushed down, makes it even more fun than the old version of this toy. ... show more

  • Easy to destroy
Size: Standard
Very gentle, when little hands tapped it, it got destroyed easily, too soft wood. Kinda hard to use, it easily stuck, and it is hard to use by adults too.

  • He loves it - me...well...
Size: Standard
First let me start by saying I generally love all Melissa and Dog toys. They are simple, great quality products. I had been thinking about getting some sort of peg-pounding device for some time and figured approaching 2.5 years old was probably a good time - especially since my son is currently intent on "fixing" everything in the house (including the dogs and myself) by beating them with plastic wrenches and screwdrivers. I've seen so many of these toys where the pegs go through too easily (so really what's the point) or are just about impossible to pound down (requiring the child to "practice" by hitting it harder and harder and harder - thereby developing a sense that full strength is needed for every endeavor and endangering the health and lives of all living and non-living things crossing their path). These go down pretty easily but the mechanism that keeps the pegs always attached to the bench at least creates a little resistance - making it "just right" Now, when I decided to purchase the toy, I thought the idea of keeping the pegs attached to the bench was a fabulous idea. I am an older parent and the little one doesn't understand that I have to bend much farther to pick up the 43 billion toys that inevitably end up just under the couch, the radiators, the cabinets, etc. I was looking forward to keeping this particular device all together all of the time. And then we get the toy. When you pound down a peg on one side, the opposite peg pokes it's little face up. Once I actually experienced the toy - I panicked. There was no way he is going to enjoy this! How frustrating - You can never pound all of the pegs down! How is he going to take out his frustration? Will this very solid wooden toy be thrown across the room, shattering windows, cracking skulls? Am I dooming him to a life of suffering - creating a young Sisyphus? Depriving him of any hope for the future? Any chance for success? Only time will tell. We've had it for a few days now and he absolutely loves it, he gets to pound down four colored smiley faced pegs and then, magically, there are four more different colors to pound. He calls it his "work tool bench" and as soon as he wakes up he asks to go downstairs and play with it. I leave him to it and go in another room - It's too stressful for me ;) ... show more
