I was hesitant to buy this for my 14 month old granddaughter because she was very small. She loves collecting things and putting them in containers and I figured at least she could take the contents out and put them back. I wasn't expecting much but since they would be at my house for a few days I ordered these. I was pleasantly surprised by the excellent quality. Includes batteries for small bells and whistles. Not only did she carry her purse in the crook of her arm, but she smeared (without lipstick) a tube of lipstick on all of us. Of course she's a genius.
