Greater than one weekGrand babies love this! I wish the pieces were a bit easier to get out, but all that shaking turns into a little more fun.

> 3 dayAwesome shape sorter. My baby started playing with this around 15 months and absolutely loves it. Very challenging.

> 3 dayMy grandson likes putting the blocks in the right holes. I had the square one, but I didn’t like the corners. I like the colored sides too.

> 3 dayThis actually came sealed and new but missing a piece so I returned it. Also, its smaller than Id expected which could be good or bad (good because it doesnt take up much storage space but bad because its harder to maneuver for the child if theyre still working on basic motor skills). Either way, I dont think its for a young baby at all. The age range states one year and up but I dont know too many babies younger than probably 2 who would be able to enjoy this with the small pieces, so many different shapes and the fact that some of them- like the purple parallelogram- would have to possibly be turned around before fitting into the hole. Also, not sure what I think about the wood blocks getting chewed on...that would depend on what type of kid youre getting it for. If youve got a chewer then Id stick with plastic probably just because I wouldnt expect them to be able to EAT plastic (although they could make little dents and teeth marks on it), but with the paint they could chip it off and actually get little bits of it inside themselves. Basically, if you know what kind of kid youre giving it to then you can decide for yourself but if its for a group or a kid youre not that familiar with then I dont know if Id get this for them. Im personally going to wait until my baby is a bit older and then reorder it when I see that theyve mastered the more basic/larger size shape sorters but this is not a great starter one. I do like that the blocks are the same color as the panel theyre supposed to go in. That should help kids decipher which place to put them and reinforce color recognition/matching...In general, I like it. But probably not for a one year old and I do wish it were a little bit bigger. Not much though!

> 3 dayMy kid loves this toy. In fact the only reason I gave it 4 out of 5 stars is because its too heavy and she could drop it and easily break a toe or foot.

> 3 dayCant get enough play with that toy, it helps our baby to focus (he can sit with it 20-30 mins if we play together), gives us a piece of mind, cause he is in the running/climbing stage now and its just great that there are toys out there that help to focus.
