User Submitted Melissa and Doug Upper & Lower Case Alphabet ReviewsDate: 2008-11-18 Excellent teaching tool for lower and upper case letters! I purchased this for my then toddler when she was about 2 years old and within a few weeks she was able to identify the upper and lower case letters of the alphabet. We still use it for reinforcing learning [she's 3.5 years old now]. This is a very effective teaching tool for letter recognition as well as identifying upper and lower case letters. Little ones get a sense of achievement when they are able to correctly identify letters of the alphabet and then moving on to mastering the more complex identifying of upper and lower case letters. Final verdict: fun, engaging and very effective teaching tool [for toddlers-preschoolers]. Date: 2008-10-24 Great puzzle for toddlers I looked all over and this was the only wooden puzzle I could find with both upper and lower case letters. My 1 1/2 yr old daughter originally had a puzzle with just upper case and she learned the letters so quickly I really wanted one that could help her with lower case as well. We have several Melissa & Doug toys and she really loves them and they are well made. My only complaint about this puzzle is that some of the letters are cut in such a way that they can be easily confused. The lower case b, q, and p, as well as the a and d, are almost exactly the same shape, which can be frustrating for kids (and parents). Wish they would have tried to differentiate those a little better, but otherwise it's great. Date: 2008-08-30 My most prized toy for my son My son is very young, and he already knows all of his upper and lower case letters because of this puzzle. And he loves it! Date: 2008-05-05 Some minor critiques I have been looking for a good set of upper and lower case letters for my son. I wanted a set like this one so he could recognize both together. For the most part, this set it great. Nice and colorful. Seems durable enough, my son hasn't been able to break any of the pieces (yet). I only have a couple minor complaints. First, the lower case d and p are almost identical, even the same color. It would have been nice if they were different colors. Also, the lowercase i looks very similar to the lowercase l. There is very little distinction around the dot on the i. Other than that, the set is adequate for what it's for. My 18 month old son can identify all of the uppercase letters and nearly all of the lowercase letters thanks to this toy. Date: 2008-04-27 Not so hot The only real problem with this puzzle was the shape of the letters on it. I'm 30 years old and couldn't tell is the small b was a d or p or even a q etc... The W could be an M or E. Too confusing. I wish they had done some pattern or something on the letters to tell them apart. Also, with a big puzzle like this, it should of been magnatized! It's hard to pick up so many puzzles each time my 3 yr old feels like dumping them over! UGGG
