Things to Keep in MindHowever, there are recurring concerns regarding the toy's quality and design, including reports of sharp edges on the plastic gears and the wooden base separating. A common frustration is that the gears detach very easily, which can limit the intended play, lead to short-term engagement, and cause frustration for both children and parents. Why You'll Like ItThis toy often captivates young children with its vibrant colors and engaging gear-spinning action, encouraging early learning concepts such as cause and effect, color recognition, and fine motor skills. Many parents appreciate its non-digital nature and its ability to hold a child's interest across a range of ages.
