User Submitted Melissa and Doug Wooden Shape Sorting Clock Reviews (cont...)Date: 2008-09-04 Grandkids love this educational toy! My daughter tells me the kids love the toy clock and they are just at the age to learn all about it. Date: 2008-06-07 Melissa and Doug - Always good toys When the first scare happened about lead in the paint of toys made in China, I called the Melissa and Doug company. They assured me that while their toys too are made in China, they have never had a problem with quality assurance. And they further stated that they never will. Hopefully this will be the case. This toy is very well made, and the educational value is very good. My 2 1/2 year old granddaughter really likes playing with it, and is already making the connection to telling time. Date: 2008-05-14 Wooden clock by Melissa and Doug I ordered this clock for my 3 year old daughter. I wanted to make sure she could tell time using an analogue clock, and not just a digital one. She's having a blast with the puzzle pieces, and now her 18 month old sister is also playing with it. It's been very durable, and it's great to watch the two of them playing with it together, singing "Tick tock, hickory dickory dock!" Date: 2008-02-15 This is how it worked for us We got this as a gift from the grandparents, and it just sat in the toy box with nobody having interest in it. Then recently I dug it out of its grave and resurrected it with this game I made up: 1) I got my 4-year-old boy to dump! all the numbers out onto a table. 2) He shovels them all into a cloth bag off the edge of the table. 3) We take turn taking out a number from the bag without peeking. My saying "no peeking" always generates more interest in peeking. 4) The person who got the block reads the number on the block and puts it in the correct slot. 5) The person then points the long-hand to 12 and the short hour-hand to the number that has just been put in. My son who is otherwise very academically challenged as a 4-year-old learned to tell time in no time -- two days. We also learned to use our sensory nerves to psyche out the pieces. When he puts his hand in the bag he knows how to pull out number 12, his favorite number on the clock. Date: 2008-01-14 I love Melissa and Doug This is a great wooden clock. The pieces fit very nicely and the whole clock has a nice, sturdy feel. The colors are beautiful. We gave this as a gift and the little girl loved it. She has played with it for hours.
