"The squigees are colorful and larger than I expected. There is no danger that a child could swallow one. My grandchildren are 7, 4 and 2, and all were eager to play. The grandmother liked them too! The children stuck them to the glass French doors and built interesting combinations which they imagined to be any number of things."

"This is a great learning toy that was purchased for my grandson. The main reason that he just plays with it frequently is because we purchased other Fat Brain Toys along with this one. He enjoys it and his little sister loves to watch him!"

"My son loves any toy with a ball so enjoys watching the balls in action as they spin around. I would recommend to any child 18 months and up. The only downside is that the unit is a little flimsy. My child is 13 months old and if he leans while putting a ball into the unit, it falls over. Wish each piece snapped together versus having to line it up. On a positive note, I love a toy without batteries!"

"My daughter is 21 mo old. She LOVES puzzles. She already has several of the kind with the pegs where it is just one picture or shape you drop in to place and she seemed to be getting bored with them. So I bought this. And she LOVES it. I like how the puzzles in this set are different levels of difficult. The ice cream one is easier than the cotton candy one for example. The puzzles are super cute too. My daughter seems to really enjoy the fact that the puzzles look like treats as well."

"I purchased this toy for my niece's first birthday. She is drawn to it and you can see the wheels in her brain turning as she tries to figure out the "cause and effect" part of the toy. So far, she's still confused by it, but that only keeps her interest. She'll figure it out one of these days, and then I think she'll continue playing with it because she knows how it works. The toy is colorful, well-constructed, and isn't too loud--always an important consideration! ;-)"

"We gave these as a birthday gift to our one year old boy/girl twin grandchildren. The more rounded shapes are easier to manipulate than traditional blocks. While they are fun to stack, the twins also enjoy rolling them around and use them for teething. Their 3 year old brother enjoys stacking them in different configurations, discovering about weight and balance. It is fun for him to see how far he can tip the tower without making it fall. These look and feel great too. "

"Great little racetrack for my grandson's 2nd birthday. It came all assembled and ready to GO! The adults liked to watch the race cars go back and forth, too. It was smaller than I though but that turned out well because it was not overwhelming and instantly my grandson knew what to do."

"This toy is the best thing I have ever bought from Fat Brain Toys! I bought the egg stackers for my 15 month old granddaughter to play with when I babysit for her. She loves these! They are colorful and easy to pick up. She sorts them and stacks them and the little "chickies" inside the eggs are a nice little surprise. Before this, she used to play with my Tupperware containers, but these are so much nicer and fun! These eggs teach colors and numbers, and they challenge baby's creative skills."

"I am a disabled grandparent of my granddaughter who will turn two years old in December, 2017. I only buy toys from Fat Brain Toys because they are fun...but most importantly....they teach and develop our precious children and grandchildren. The toys are all quality toys with a lot of thought that went into their development. My only negative comment would be that the toys are a little pricey for a disabled, senior citizen on a low, fixed income. I suggest maybe a 15% discount for disabled and s"

"I purchased this for my 22 month old granddaughter to keep her busy in the high chair, car , etc. She loves it! In fact my 3 yr old, 5 yr old and 6 yr old grandchildren have all played with it as well. It's a very simple toy and I don't really know why they like it so much, but everyone of them will sit for several minutes at a time taking the shapes out and putting them back in. It has a soft rubbery feel to it and texture on the shapes so I suspect that has something to do with it. It is most "

"The cups are very durable and colorful. They are light and easy for my 15 month granddaughter to grab. She even tried drinking water from them. She has had them on the patio sliders, microwave, dishwasher and their table. My 3 year old grandson also plays with them if she isn't hogging them all. Good to use for color identification too! The bottom sticks well to many surfaces. The video shows the girl using the wide part of the cup to stick, but it doesn't stick that well on surfaces."

"My child actually hasn't played with the toy yet since it's a birthday present and his birthday isn't for a couple of weeks yet. My hope is the toy will help him with his development and fine motor skills. He is a preemie baby who has some developmental delays due to this. So I'm hopeful he will enjoy the blocks and eventually learn to love the toy. I heard really good things about the company and their toys from our PT & OT ladies so I was excited to be able to get to the store and check it out"

"Very unique and so well made. My 13-month-old son is very curious about it every time we pull it out and I think he will continue to use it and learn colors/textures as he gets older. He also loves the jingling bell sound, and as a mom who gets very tired of the repetitive electronic toy music, I appreciate this gentle yet pleasant sound aspect."

"I bought a bunch of fat brain toys, including the Tugl cube. As of now, my 7 month old doesn't have the strength to push and pull the sides in and out. I expect him to get better with this over time, since I know he's currently still a little young for this toy. However, he loves chewing on the sides and looking at the different colors. My 4 year old thinks it's fun. He's obsessed with fidget toys, and this is a giant fidget cube. Mom and Dad also find it satisfying to twist and pop too! So while this doesn't get as much play as some of our other fat brain toys, I'd recommend it for probably the 1-2 year old crowd, and any parents who also enjoy a good fidget!"

"It's the best dimpl for car rides or flights because it's incredibly charming and fun while still being quiet unlike the other dimpls. Not only can you pop the bubble, but you can stretch it, twist it, and squeeze it. Very satisfying, would recommend."

"This toy was very creative and intriguing to me in its appearance. The shape is unique and the bright primary colors get your attention. The toy looks exactly as pictured. What you cannot see or rather experience from a picture is how soft the material of the toy pieces are. They are incredibly soft! Perfect for babies and young toddlers. The unique shape encourages thoughtful play that's a little different from the average square building block like toy piece sets. I thought it was odd that this toy is sold in a 3 piece set or the larger 9 piece set. What can you do with 3 pieces? So I opted for the 9 piece toy set. Some might consider it pricey but when you are a grandparent you are able to splurge from time to time. With multiple children potentially playing with the toy, I can justify the purchase. It is of high quality, well made toy."

"Love the stability, the dual use a walker/bike, the WONDERFUL wheels that glide over carpet and doorway edges. My only recommendation to the company--a bit of a resistance lever on the front wheels would help the learning walker to not roll away so quickly. And, of course, we all love the smiling face."

"Small cars that are soft and are problem free, as of now. I gave them to my niece for her birthday and she loved them. She immediately started crashing the cars together and having a good time. The soft material makes them ok if the child decides to throw them, or bumps the cars together and gets their fingers hit in the process. They won't pinch or hurt."

"This set is so delightful! I have been waiting a long to press these beautiful blue and soothing grey dimpl bubbles through their ideal-sized rounded billow frame. I wasn't expecting to love the bright as much as I do. The entire outer ring is soft, flexible silicone so it feels great. I love the size of the dimpls, and popping them is so satisfying! All of the cheery dimpls are smooth on both sides, except for one that carries the fat brain logo on one side. The scalloped edge is adorable too. The center mirror can work it's way out with certain intentional movements (I kind of prefer it with the empty circle), but young babies and toddlers are not likely to take it apart. Just mentioning that to make you aware of that potential. Buy it anyway. And enjoy playtime together! I adore this set! My favorite Dimpls yet. I have already sent one as a gift to my little nephew, but as you can tell, I would extend the age recommendation to include Dimpl fans way older t"
