Melissa & Doug 20 Wooden Animal Magnets in a Box - Cute Animal Fridge, Refrigerator Magnets For Toddlers Ages 2+

I love these! I’ve bought them twice since my son and hid so many. When he was 12 months old, I didn’t let him play with the smaller ones but the bigger ones were perfect! Now he can play with them all and it keeps him entertained while I’m in the kitchen.

This was a solid purchase. As a grandma living close enough to see my grandson fairly often, I want to have some toys at the ready, but at the same time, I dont want to devote a great deal of space. On top of those concerns, I also want something that is easy for my grandson, a toddler, to reach without also being in a place the puppy--who lives here--to run off with and destroy. I was told the lad likes fridge magnets, and so the only question left was what kind to get. There are a ton of alphabet magnets for sale, but as a teacher (retired) I know that just having those letters slapped on the fridge will not make one tiny bit of difference in how soon he starts to read. Hes just over a year old. Those letters will mean nothing, and they will be no fun. We have a ton of childrens books that he loves; the letters can wait. The funny thing about these magnets is that they form a sort of odd combination of farm, jungle, and forest animals...oh, and the desert and plains as well. But as he gets older, that will make them more enjoyable for sorting, and for making up stories with them. The best thing about these magnets--apart from the fact that the art is reasonably accurate--is that they are sturdy and the magnets on the back are as large as the front, so they are easy for him to lift off and stick back on without having to tilt or aim them a certain way, and so...Sammy loves them.

My 1 yo loves playing with these magnets. I took approximately 3 of the magnets out of the mix because they were small enough to put in her mouth/potential cooking hazards. Once were past the chewing on everything stage, Ill add them back to the mix.

We really like these magnets. I use our magnet board and let my 18 month old play with them. We use it to go over what each animal is and their sounds and she repeats it back to us. I do wish they were thicker for her to grasp better. She has to drag them to the edge of the board to get them off so Im sure on the refrigerator would be tricky but overall we like them.

Both my great grand children received one and they love it. They play all of the time, they are on the refrigerator so they can see and reach them. I am going to buy another for my place so they have them here to play with.

These are great. My baby has learned many animal sounds from playing with these and it keeps her distracted and busy while I prep meals (and away from the kitchen cupboards!!) I bought these when my baby was 1 and they are fine. The chicken and duck are a little small but I just put those where she can’t reach .

A must have. Good strength magnets but not too much that a baby can’t pull them off or slide them around.

Ive had these for about two weeks. My one year old plays with these often. However, the images have already started to rub off on several of the magnets.

My son loves them he actually learned all of the animals just by playing with these magnets and of course my help !

These really are super durable and my kids love going over the animals on the fridge !
