My son is 18 months old and I have wanted to give him this toy for a long time. We still have a few Plan toys and I'm happy with all of them. I recently bought him a KidKraft Zig Zag Ball Run and he's obsessed with the wooden balls that come with it. Since his favorite toy of all time is the Wonderland Hammerbank, I felt I should really offer him this toy. It arrived today and as always is fantastic quality and aesthetics as are all our other toys. But my son flipped this toy. He was so excited about the wooden balls. One day I showed him what to do with the box and the hammer and he left. In typically childish fashion, he had to attempt to climb on top of her. He's a big 18-month-old at 30 pounds and he held it, albeit with a squeak. Of course I asked him not to stand on her, but I was very glad that she survived. Balls sometimes get stuck inside, giving him good problem-solving practice. As other reviewers have said, this is the best age to throw, and these are wooden balls. I keep these toys away from things I don't want to hit with them. One day he "handed" me one and I "got" his head and they really hurt so plan accordingly and you'll be fine. Additional bonus: the balls made from it are perfect for zigzag ball runs. I haven't tried running the balls off the ball onto this one yet. I need to measure balls because I spend a lot of time chasing them around the house and pulling them out from under furniture. Roll like crazy on our laminate floors!
