Galt Pop-Up Toy - Colourful Wooden Sensory Toy for Boys and Girls -Early Learning Cause and Effect Toy for Colour Recognition and Motor Skills Development - First Birthday Gift for Ages 12 Months Plus

Good quality and kept child amused

Used as a donation toy this Christmas to the less fortunate. Nice quality toy.

I didn’t get to play with this, myself, but my nephew tells me his 1-year-old son loves it.

Good for the young ones to play with.

I bought this for my 16-month-old for Christmas. He loves it! PROS: + Sturdy, well made, non-toxic (it's by Galt, a well-represented brand) + Unpredictable bounce, which makes it more fun - lots of laughing and giggles when they pop out! + Good for practicing coordination when getting the stick men back into their holes + Affordable, so good for a birthday present for a friend's child / class party CONS: - I'm still slightly nervous about one of the stick men popping up into my son's eye, though that hasn't happened to date. Perhaps avoid for smaller / younger babies who will might lean directly over it too closely? That's it, and I note no-one has commented on this in any reviews, so I might just be worrying too much!

I'm on baby number 4 so have seen many Christmases and birthdays already. This toy has been on my lists in the past, but somehow always got overlooked until this year. I guess it was on the recommendation of a few friends that the toys was fantastic for babies that made me finally buy it (or, err, was that Santa who bought it???). Anyway, the bottom line is that my 9-month-old truly loves this toy. He even started crawling (finally) so he could reach it. He picks up the pegs, he mouths them, gums them, bangs them together, makes a little hammering action against the pegs that are still in their holes. He picks up the main block and turns it over and over, looking at the holes and the coloured swatches on the side. I presume, as he gets older, he'll start tucking the pegs into the holes and then, even later, learn to launch them from their spring-loaded bases. The toy feels good to hold because it's wooden, and the pegs are such a good size and weight. The little happy faces drawn on them are something that my baby is already responding to, turning the pegs around until he sees them. Best of all, it's made in Cheshire, England. And it's cheaper in England than in the US. (I can tell you that *that's* a surprise!). Bottom line: buy the toy for your first baby. Buy it for your friends' babies. I'm just about to buy one for my nephew who's 6 months old, and wish I'd bought it for my own, older kids before now, so we could have had that much more enjoyment from it. Oh, and the other thing I really like about it? No batteries required. UPDATE: The 9-month old is now almost 4, and he still *loves* this toy! Now the little men talk to each other, and he is very specific about putting the right coloured man in the right coloured hole. He sometimes uses a toy hammer on it, though is quite careful not to hit his men too hard. I just can't believe how CLASSIC this toy really is.

My grandkids love it! Thank you

Excellent quality product. Great amusement for children

Item received in good condition. Great toy, my one year old loves playing with it.

We got this for our so at about 9-10mo. He is now over 2 and still thinks it a hilarious and fascinating toy. To start with we would make the little stick figures fly to much laughter and surprise. Eventually he could press them down himself, then he learned the technique of making them fly really high. Now he also sorts them by colour. It might look a simple toy but it has staying power! (We have used other similar popping toys but found this the simplest and easiest for younger kids to use as the sticks are all the same length and fit in all holes.)

I love how my baby skills improved using this toy Initially he mastered putting the wooden man in opening and then he knew how to let it pop up

Tolles und sehr robustes Lernspiel das bis heute von meinen Kindern sehr gerne gespielt wird. Das Design lädt auch über einen längeren Zeitraum die Kinder immer wieder zum spielen und neuem Lernen ein.

Ottimo gioco per affinare abilità motorie, consigliato dalla psicomotricista.
