fun to stack and just to play with
I ordered these for my grandson. He’s a bit younger than the recommended ages for play, so he doesn’t stack them yet but enjoys watching me stack them and knocking them down. He really loves them just for play. The wood is smooth, so I do not need to worry about him putting them in his mouth or getting splinters. The animals are painted vibrantly and are just adorable. He plays with his toys pretty rough and so far we’ve had no issues with paint or the wood chipping off.

Fun for many ages
At first glance, I was drawn to the bright coloring of this animal stacking set. A very nice feature of this set is at the bottom of the package is a template to allow all the pieces to fit back into the box… genius. Another highlight of this set is the balancing piece. Balancing while stacking certainly adds to the difficulty level. This allows this toy to still be challenging for older children as well. My set did come with some cosmetic flaws which do not affect the function of the toy.

Alot smaller than I thought..
This toy is about the size of two average adult hands, I thought it would be larger. Overall the children still played with the blocks, but the stacking was no interest to 2 year Olds. The blocks were of perfect size for them, but the stacking may not be an interest for a couple of years.

Colorful
These wooden toys are colorful and bright . I could never get the whole complete set onto the rocker. The clear varnish on toy is slippery making it super hard to get them stacked . Wooden toys are challenging. Overall a great toy for little hands .

Smaller than expected
I thought the green balancing piece would be much larger. This was difficult to properly stack even for an adult!

Wonderful balance toy set
Adorable stacking wooden set that provides a lot of fun and challenges for all ages. I think it can get a little difficult for younger toddlers to balance the pieces together but nonetheless the entire set is very cute and well made. The craftsmanship is simply amazing. I love the eco friendly, safe design. All the animals have rounded, smooth edges. The pieces are very colorful and vibrant.I only wish they came with a little bag or pouch to store them in when not in use.

Much smaller pieces than the photo
I still think it’s a great gift but not necessarily for a 1 year old who wants to put everything in his or her mouth. My daughter said she was actually going to order this when I gifted my grandson this for Easter. I kept it separate from his Easter basket and gave it directly to her since I noticed how small the pieces are. She will give it to him and help him with it once he’s a little older and not putting everything in his mouth. She was happy about the gift but know it’s not age appropriate for a 1 year old. I don’t recall the age listed on sahcreatives. His theme is safari so I got it. The photo is a little misleading on the size they show.

Great
These are great. The animals are super cute. It seems like the finish will keep them from stacking but it doesn’t at all. What’s nice is they’re difficult enough for me to enjoy but also easy enough for my 20 month old to enjoy. Great product and price.

A wonderful balance toy that provides a fun challenge for all ages – adults included
This is a very well thought out wood stacking toy. At its most basic level, it is a well made and colorful toy to look at and the quality of the painting of the animals makes for an attractive and enticing choice for toddlers and children, who will often gravitate towards it for play for those reasons alone. As to specifics – the pieces are all 3/4 inch thick and measure in size from 1 3/4 inches x 1 1/2 inches for the smallest bird, to around 2 x 3 inches for larger animals. The alligator has additional length. What I like about this stacking – balancing toy set is that it allows not only for educational play, but also creative play. While primarily the toy is meant to teach the beginning concepts of balance and gravity (as are all toys of this type), this set expands on those concepts by the way it’s rocker base, with its balance bar as a separate unattached piece, and the animals in this set were designed and cut. Once your child is able to stack and balance one smaller animal atop another larger animal that has a flat surface to balance the smaller animal on, this set becomes an endless learning opportunity, continually building on that basic skill set. It will further teach how the size of an object and its weight can impact balance. It continues to refine hand and eye coordination, and the hand dexterity and muscle control needed to balance the animals as the difficulty increases. So whether your child is first learning about balance by stacking one thing on top of the other on a stable flat surface and knocking them down, or beginning to learn how to balance things on an uneven but stable surface (an available choice via sitting the enclosed rocking base on its flat narrow end thereby creating a slope to balance things on), to its most advanced skill of learning how to balance things on an level but unstable and rocking surface, this particular stacking toy covers it all. Your child will always be testing and advancing their skillset interacting with this toy (as will the adult in the most advanced level). While some other brands of these balance toys may make the skill set easier to navigate by designing their product in a different way to make things easier to do, this balance stacking set encourages the child to think independently to acquire those same skills. This toy is age appropriate for any child once the possibility of choking on a piece is past. Because the size of the animals in this set varies, age appropriateness can vary depending on the pieces the toddler has been given access to. If you wanted to give them access to the entire set at once, Age 3 and up, as the box is marked, would definitely the starting appropriate age. If you removed the smallest pieces, a child aged two and up likely would be fine. This toy can be as easy or difficult as you or your child makes it out to be. Finally, if your child would rather just be a zookeeper for a day and play with the animals, it is the perfect toy for that imaginative play too. It would make a great purchase for anyone with a child of the appropriate age.

Cute set
This is a cute set of wooden animals, but my daughter doesn’t seem particularly interested in stacking them and to be honest, it’s a bit challenging to get them to stack other than a few specific ways when trying to use all the pieces. The animals are really cute – my daughter likes to carry around the alligator haha!

Used and missing pieces
Do not buy! Missing animals and the wood base came broken. Animals look used and chewed!

These are a bit too complicated for a baby to stack but they’re still good toys! My 9 mo loves them.

Brightly colored animals keep kids entertained as they experiment with stacking
I got this for my three year old niece and four year old nephew, and they love the animals. They are the perfect size for their little hands and they have developed their own game of stacking the animals, taking turns to see who can keep stacking before they fall down. I’ve watched them figure out how to put longer animals on the bottom and choose the best animal to go next. They seem to be putting a lot of thought into it for such young kids. They also play with the animals, just as animals. It is an entertaining and educational toy.

Very nice wooden toy
This is a very cute toy that could be used in many ways with some imagination. It is called a stacking toy and your child can play with the little animals,as their shapes fit together in different ways and try to stack them up. Or they can just play with the animals,as they are very cute, colorful, and all have faces with expression. I was slightly hesitant at first, because of the paint, but it says non-toxic. So hopefully that is the case.

These are cute
I got these for our babies nursery, but they are more geared towards my three old age range. So he’s been having fun trying to figure it out although he has not mastered it yet. They are wood and the colors are really fun. I look forward to having these for years to come for both of my kids to enjoy.

Adorable Animal puzzle
The media could not be loaded.
These animals are made out of brightly painted, sturdy wood pieces. I work with children with autism and they love these animals. I would highly recommend.

Great toy!
We are loving these! Challenging enough for me and my 2.5 year old loves to imaginary play with them. We both try to stack and fail lol. I came to the listing to copy some for their stacks! Definitely fun for parents and toddlers!!! Toy for us both to enjoy.

Nice stacking toy for my toddler
This toy is very attractive and safe for babies. It’s colorful and has well designed animal shapes. The main reason that I would recommend this toy is because it uses good quality material. Its surface is very smooth and you will mot feel any splinter.

I kind of want to keep these for myself!
This is a fun and well made set. Nicely sanded and painted and the animals have cute faces. They are nice and chunky for toddler and preschool age hands , but any kid is going to love these. You cant resist picking them up and they would also look darling on a nursery shelf. They are painted the same on the front and the back.One thing I really appreciate is if you like to keep toys in their original box, this has a nicely coated paper on the inside bottom of the box with all the animal shapes. This way you can get them back into the box and it is like assembling a puzzle! It only takes a minute instead of struggling to get them all back in.The real issue is: do I give them to my grand daughter now or do I keep them until her birthday or Christmas? Or do I keep them for myself and she will never know….This company did a nice job on these and I would highly recommend them.

A little frustrating ( from an adult )
I really want to like this little set. The blocks are bright and colorful and nice. It’s a fun little toy to play with .However, the blocks are “slippy”. When I was playing around with this the long base block slides off and makes it even more than just balancing. When you have to balance and the blocks are sliding around it makes it frustrating. Also the blocks are nice and solid but are not completely flat. So when stacking it makes it more prevalent to sliding around.I really want to like it. But it’s frustrating too.

Eye catching and well-made
Love this product! It includes 11 adorable wooden animals and a boat for balancing. My kids enjoy balancing the animals on each other or on the boat, using it as a flat puzzle, or simply playing imaginatively with the animals. Balancing the animals is more challenging than it may appear but is a bit easier if done on a rug versus smooth surface.The only addition I would recommend is for the manufacturer to include the names of the intended animals as there is one animal that looks like an antelope but not sure. As a preschool teacher, I think it is important to expose young children to new vocabulary and to be intentional about labels.

Absolutely Charming
These stacking zoo animals just invite themselves to be handled. The solid wood pieces are smoothly finished and painted on both sides. The smooth finish makes them a little challenging to stack but that adds to the fun and interactive potential for all members of the family. Although this is recommended for a minimum of 3 years old due to potential choking hazard, I think that if one took out the little parrot the rest of the animals would be safe for a younger toddler (only my opinion). A nice, good quality toy.

Great balance toy
This is a great toy for young kids to use their minds. It’s challenging so they have to think and reason throughout the activity. The animal pieces are cute and have a nice shiny smooth finish to them. The wood isn’t perfect but that’s ok. I took a picture of the pieces inside the box before removing them so I would be able to put them back but was pleasantly surprised to find that there is an insert in the box that has a silhouette of each animal so you can easily store them in the box each time you’re finished.

Very cute!
This is a very cute and colorful set of wooden toys with nice animal faces on the pieces. It is smaller than I expected but I think a small child would enjoy it. The box says 36+ for suggested age but I don’t see why a 2 year old couldn’t safely play with these. The pieces are smooth. I can’t wait to give them to my grandchild!

adorable!
This set is super cute and solid wood. It’s super hard to stack more than a few animals on the balance board at once, but my toddler still finds it fun and likes playing with the animals off the board too.
