Part of the fun is assembling the pieces together
August 25, 2014
By H. Kim
Part of the fun is assembling the pieces together with your kid.
It’s good to take a video game and add a more tactile element to it.
Just don’t think of assembling the many pieces as “work”.
This reviewer likes the quality…
Great kit!

By Andysibirsk
Great stuff! Easy to put together.
Sturdy heavy weight paper.
Good color and true to the look of minecraft.
And this review reminds you to be mindful of the quantity of boxes you’ll have to store…
Fun for awhile

By Momof2
Really fun to put together. Any child who loves minecraft and art type projects will love this.
My 7 year old folded everything himself after I showed him basic instructions. He thought it was great.
The only con is that you have loads of paper boxes everywhere afterwards.
You will need to have a rather large storage bag/bin to store them in if you plan on keeping them.

Brio trains – an OUTSTANDING toy
October 13, 2014
By Julie Templeton
Brio trains lasted my son from age 2 until age 13.
The ONLY toy that can claim an 11 year interest span.
As he got older we added pieces and by the time he was 13 we had a major metropolis on the living room floor.
This toy encouraged his imagination and entertained him for HOURS….
This reviewer is appreciates the quality…

….The pieces are, for the most part, made of the quality wood I think of when I think of Brio…
And this reviewer says it’s perfect for toddlers…
Nice little starter set for the toddler
December 19, 2012
By R. Stewart
This set is exactly what I sought as birthday present for a toddler. It is very simple.
A two to three year old will find the tracks a bit of a puzzle, and their imigination will be given a chance to explore a variety of assembly sequences, not all of which end up in a figure 8!
I hope to add to this as time goes on.

Interesting Concept…Kids Love It
By T. Emond
December 21, 2013
…The object of the game is to get all of the pieces on to the board in a complete path (circuit).
When a circuit is completed the board lights up and plays a little song. (music can be turned off)
The challenges increase in difficulty and show fewer and fewer piece placements as you increase in difficulty.
My children really enjoy playing this game. It is pretty challenging.
This reviewer says it’s great as an educational tool…

Love anything and everything from Melissa and doug.
This was super cute and my little one learned a lot from it.
Still, a lot of reviewers said it could use a lid…
good buy
August 18, 2014
By klaw “klaw”
…The letters are so easy to lose, and there is no lid to the box (just a loosely-fitting piece of plastic that sits over the letter section).
Overall, a good educational toy.

By Romatherapy
I got this for my 4-year old grandson…
It’s not too difficult, but at the same time it is not super easy for a 4-year -old, so the first time he put it together, there was a challenging aspect to it.
Also it is not the conventional rectangular puzzle ,but more of an irregular oval. I highly recommend it.
This reviewer likes the sense of accomplishment young ones feel after completion…
Excellent Puzzle
July 25, 2014
By Amazon’s Ralph Nader
…The pieces are thick and fit together very nicely. It’s very well made.
My 4 year old felt successful putting it together because it’s divided in a way that makes it challenging but able to be accomplished for preschool and early elementary children.
This reviewer wants to point out the pieces are cardboard, not foam…
I thought this was a Foam Floor Puzzle like others I’ve bought before
October 1, 2014
By Heyddy Pichardo
…It was not exactly what I expected but my niece was happy with it.
You should put on the description that it’s made out of cardboard.

Quadrilla Vertigo
April 7, 2014
By Cindy Natale
This is everything a toy should be!
I love that it is sturdy and it makes my 4 and 5 year old girls think, problem solve and trouble shoot.
Already learning to check and see what direction the blocks are pointed when the marble goes the wrong way. They love to help me put the runs together and enjoy the finished product…
Best building/engineering toy our girls have.
This reviewer likes variety in building choices and also has a suggestion regarding a building surface…
Fun, creative and a crowd pleaser
December 25, 2013
…There are thousands of combinations to be made and the instructions are clear and easy to follow.
Would suggest a supporting hard surface under the construction as it can be a little tippy, especially for younger children…
And this reviewer is fan of wooden toys…
Educational Fun that will last for decades
October 24, 2013
By Candra C. Georgi “mommy of many”
I love wooden toys…stand the test of time and aggressive play, ha!
…the boys love to build all types of marble creations with them. This one has been a great addition…it is sturdy, colorful, and has different swirls and pieces that keep the boys building for hours.
It’s imagination & invention in one great product. It’s like legos & wooden blocks, but adding elevation and marbles!..
