Wooden Toys - Montessori Toys for 2 Year Old Girls and Boys - Toddler Puzzles - Shape Sorting Matching Gear Game - Educational Toddler Toys Age 2-3 - Great Preschool Learning Activities

Have many elements to teach colors, shapes, gear function/turning. Is small so doesn’t take up much space.Better to leave toys like this disassembled so kids can rearrange/solve themselves

This is a present for a 2 year old so I can't say how the child interacts with it as it is for Christmas however as an early years teacher for many years I chose the toy because of sturdiness, colour, texture and educational purpose. I always try to choose toys that provide play opportunities rather than specific uses so steer away from toys that can only be used for one game. I love the wooden feel, sound and sturdiness. I'm not keen on toys that jump on to the educational bandwagon and put numbers, letters and alphabet sounds, usually not phonetic but American letter names. They don't care about the child's education but try to attract the parents into thinking it will be a good toy because it's covered in letters and numbers and american alphabet names. I feel adults are exploited by this selling technique and they are too cluttered for the children to use without one to one interaction that will be needed to use all the bells and whistles.Your toys however tick all my boxes and I love them and they are truly educational because the children will engage in their properties. They will last the duration and the children will love them for years to come.

Great gift along with the Book of Butterflies. Bought for a 2 yr old girl! Very nice combo!

The bright colours are attractive and the wood is smooth and well finished.At first put the central block on each spike and have the children put the cogs on. They love the way the cogs move each other. They soon get the idea and start placing the blocks as well. I have grandchildren from nearly 2 to nearly 6 playing happily with it

This toy is well made. Mine came on without any damage and minimal imperfections if any. Parts are a good size for small hands and colors are bright and attractive. I purchased for my 3 year old as a step up from puzzles he already mastered. I had to guide him the first time but he quickly got the hang of it and really enjoys it. It's great for fine motor skill development and the price point is excellent!
