Beautiful, high quality magnet set

Love these. They are high quality and beautiful. I really appreciate that the magnet covers the whole back of each, so there is no chance of my toddler picking the magnet off the wood and swallowing / choking (as has nearly happened with several other, cheaper magnets).While these are obviously kid-themed, I think Carle's illustrations are beautiful and I'd much rather have them "decorating" my kitchen than some plastic cartoon magnets. Plus, my son likes that he recognizes the animals…

Pros
  • Helps to develop fine motor skills
Cons
  • The wood used in the set could be sourced from unsustainable forests

Very small: my feedback

These would be fine for any child who doesn't put things in their mouth. However, if you have a child who wants to "taste" everything, don't buy these until they're older. My grandson is 15 mo. old, and as soon as I saw these I knew that I'd have to put them away for awhile. They could definitely be a choking hazard.They're small, and they feel more like cardboard than wood. I don't know how they're going to hold up. The pictures are very cute, but they aren't as bright as I was expecting. I'm…

Pros
  • Mudpuppy
Cons
  • The magnets could be too strong and difficult for some children to separate

No match for Señor Slobber

The good: Super cute and definitely won't break easily. Nice size for little hands to hold but not so small that they could be swallowed.The bad: These say they're for 12 months and up, but I have to disagree. In the hands of my teething 15-month-old and his ocean of slobber the pictures quickly began to disintegrate, leaving behind a plain magnet. Not quite what I was going for. I will, however, keep the ones that aren't ruined and bring them back out when he's a bit older. He'll probably…

Pros
  • IMAGINATIVE PLAY: Let your child’s imagination run free with wooden magnetic shapes featuring illustrations  of friendly farm animals and objects found on the farm. Kids ages 3 and up will love making farm scenes come to life.
Cons
  • The magnets could accidentally attract other metal objects within a child's reach

cute as can be but.

love the pictures on the magnets but my son was able to chew the cardboard images off on a lot of the corners. we were hoping for a wood magnet

Pros
  • Helps children learn about animal behavior
Cons
  • The set may not be easily transported for use on-the-go

Love these!: my feedback

These magnets are great! I bought them for my 1.5-year-old daughter. They have a full magnetic back, so they aren't easily knocked off the fridge by our dog's tail. I love that this set includes adult animals and baby animals, and some of the animals have variants (for example, there's a black cow and a brown cow) so kids can learn that not all of one type of animal look the same. It also includes a few farm stand items like corn and carrots. Super cute set!

Pros
  • Improves memory skills
Cons
  • The wooden pieces may need to be properly maintained to prevent damage from moisture or insects

Some are too small for teething toddlers

These are beautiful and well constructed, but about 33% of the magnets are too small to give to a young toddler. They are in the 1in x 1in range. I picked out the larger ones for now, but wanted to let other parents know!

Pros
  • Can be used for storytelling and role-playing
Cons
  • The toy may lose its novelty after repeated use

Fun magnets! best in my review

We purchased these magnets as a distraction for my toddler in the kitchen. He often hangs out while I'm doing dishes and needed something to keep him occupied. These magnets fit the bill perfectly! They are easy to pull off and the solid black back makes it easy for him to know which side to stick on the fridge. The animals come in family groupings (i.e. a rooster, a hen, some chicks) and look very nice. As he gets older, he's starting to want to know about the sounds and names of the animals…

Pros
  • Provides hours of entertainment
Cons
  • The wooden pieces could be prone to breaking if dropped or mishandled

Not perfect but still ok

The paper picture on the top of the wood gets off easily if the baby puts it in her mouth. Otherwise good Some children may not have an interest in farm animals!

Pros
  • Encourages creativity and imagination
Cons
  • Some children may not have an interest in farm animals

Beautiful Distraction.

Brings your favorite children's books to life. My son loves being in the kitchen with me while I cook or do the dishes and these allow him to stay occupied and entertained while I get stuff done. They are so colorful and so vibrant and perfect size for little hands.I do want to add though that for little babies you'll want to go through and pick out the bigger animals to play with first and as they get older start pulling out the rest. Some of them are a little small and could be a potential…

Pros
  • 0.5 x 1.5 x 1.75 inches
Cons
  • The set could be difficult to clean if pieces get dirty or sticky

Great quality and LOVED by my daughter!

These are BY FAR the biggest hit at our house tonight! My 21 month old is having a BALL with these. I've never seen her SO excited over something. Its also been great to see how many animals she knows and their sounds! Worth every penny!

Pros
  • My toddler loves these! They are just the right size and it’s fun to match the characters to the books!
Cons
  • The wooden pieces could be too small for some children to grip comfortably

Great all around best in my review

My 18 month old daughter loves these and has for a couple of months now. If they were the only toy we owned right now she'd be perfectly happy. They are so cute and the quality is high. They stick to the fridge well, but aren't so strong that she can't get them off herself. She loves matching the babies to their "mommies" and having them pretend to eat the food pieces. The container they come in snaps closed and had held up very well to repeated clean up and dump out sessions. I'd…

Pros
  • My daughter loves these. Fantastic magnets for the fridge.
Cons
  • The set may not come with a storage container for the pieces

My one year old granddaughter loves these magnets!

I bought these for my one year old granddaughter. She loves sitting in front of the refrigerator and sticking them on and taking them back off again. These magnets appear to be really tough and hanging in there so far and they're really cute. I'm happy with this purchase and I would recommend to others.

Pros
  • Inspires curiosity about animals and their habitats
Cons
  • The set may not be compatible with other magnets or magnetic toys

11 month old loved them!

I gifted these to my 11 year old niece and a year and a half later and she still loves to play with them! they were instrumental in helping her visualize the objects and learn those words…and she was so fascinated with the magnet aspect of it! She really wanted to eat them all the time, but we taught her to not to eat them, and she didn’t do it so much anymore, thank goodness definitely recommend these!

Pros
  • Enhances problem-solving abilities
Cons
  • The magnets could present a hazard if swallowed and accidentally cause a blockage in a child's digestive system

A must for any eric carle fan.

I received the eric carle box and my 3 year old was elated to open and find all of his favorite characters. He plays with them on and off the refrigerator, acting out the stories. Lots of fun play. There is 35 magnets, clean and unused. Sturdy and wipeable. Love this set. Picture included to show all magnets included.

Grandson lives them!

My grandson loves to play with these. They stick with a good hold. They adhere to my fridge, dishwasher and stove. Thanks for attention.

Pros
  • A toy that children can grow with
Cons
  • The farm animals may not be as recognizable to children who have grown up in urban environments
