Really nice idea but it took my son very quickly to get used to it and to beat the "plug" leaking everywhere. It is almost impossible to fill in any of the worksheets as the small shapes just move around. Essentially, using a zip-lock bag with tape is the same.

It arrived on May 5th and couldn't stand to try it in my preschool class until June 6th! Couldn't even use it as it has a hole and the water seeped out straight away! Very unhappy and disappointed as I missed the June 4th return date!

I love this outdoor toy and so does my 2 year old. She will solve some puzzles. I highly recommend using pure aloe vera with some water as a filler.

Second, task sheets that are interchangeable are often difficult to remove or insert. So it's a good concept in…

This article works great except for the fact that I had to fill it in myself. I didn't notice that when I first saw it. That part was my own oversight. Thing is, I had to fill it myself because I didn't get the right consistency straight away for the little plastic parts to move around nicely when my 3 year old granddaughter played with it. The next disadvantage of filling yourself is that my granddaughter quickly noticed the fork and wanted to take it out. So I basically couldn't let this item
