Review on CoolToys 65 Piece Educational Children's Learning Set by Drew Poulin

Revainrating 4 out of 5

A good toy for learning numbers and counting.

I like the idea. I'm just not sure if it was for quality reasons. The monkey you put numbers and weights in is very light and was knocked down several times in the first 10 minutes. The little monkeys you put in the bowl won't stand up like they do in the picture unless you're very, very careful. I admit my 4 year old was frustrated at first. if you can get through it I thought the concept was a very clever idea. I counted the money in a bowl and my 4 and then 3 year olds found the numbers and put their number in another bowl to match my counted monkeys. When we write it down, I put in a number and let it count. I see many different ways to use this for learning. If the base was a little stronger or had some weight on the bottom to hold it up I would probably give it 5 stars. I think for the price it could have been better.

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Security
