We purchased this toy for my for Christmas last year. He was 1 1/2 at the time. I agree with other reviewers in that we too were initially disappointed that the train does not go around the tracks. Also, since the track does not come apart from the station, it was impossible for him to put the animals on the stand without leaning on letters and setting those off. However, he plays with this toy every day, and now that he's 2 1/2, he can reach the animal stand fine, and enjoys playing the game where he's asked to find the letter that makes each sound, etc. If you're looking for a train, this is not the toy to buy. If you're looking for just a fun learning toy, this one is great. He still loves it! Date: 2008-11-29 Good but not Great!! I found this toy on clearance after Christmas 07' and put it away for this year. After reading the reviews, I was really worried and decided to put it together and try it out before Christmas morning. This is going to be his big Santa gift. I liked the fact that it was ready to go straight out of the box. He loved the music, all the animals and the signs that it comes with. My only problem is like many others is the design flaw. He has to sit on the tracks to play with it and it only comes with one train car. He has no problem with that though. This toy will probably not hold his attention in the long run, but was worth the clearance price. If you looking for a real good train set, I would steer clear. If you little one likes music, animals, and pressing buttons this would be a good starter set. It does come with a storage bag to put the 25 animals and different signs. Date: 2008-11-17 must be for older kids my nephew loved this thing with the movement and talking but at 18 months he hasn't gotten the hang of the educational side yet. here's hoping he grows into it. Date: 2008-11-03 Lost Interest too Soon I purchased this for my two grandchildren. One age 13months and One age 2. Neither one of them found this toy interesting or fun. The train has to be moved by hand and I guess mine are two young to find that fun. My youngest plays more with the animals alone than with the train set. The set is very sturdy which Iam glad and easy to take down and put away. They just don't seem interested in this toy too much. Date: 2008-10-14 Poorly designed Like many other reviewers, I have a problem with the design of the track. My son has to sit on the track to play with the station part of the toy. So when he puts the peacock on the station, instead of saying "I'm a peacock," you hear 1,000 other noises because he's sitting on the track pressing buttons with his butt so that he can reach. Other than that major flaw, I don't like that it has a million pieces to keep track of and clean up. My son doesn't play with them he just throws them around the whole room. Also, he gets tired of this toy very quickly. You don't need this toy. Go with something else.
