Edushape Rollipop Advanced Ball Drop Set

This product is not a marble run like the many others you see on amazon.com. This product serves the purposes of developing logical thinking, coordination, and lateral gaze development and stabilization.

Developed for the young toddler 12-18 months. Safe large balls which slowly go down a simple maze/run. So what can that serve?

A) Logic (if I do this, then that happens). Concrete thinking!

B) Coordination (pick up the ball palm grasp or pincer grip, and deliver it from the bottom bin up to the feeder). Repetition!

C) Lateral gaze development. It takes complicated neuromuscular coordination to watch an airplane slowly fly high above. We take it for granted (like going down the stairs). The design of this maze is deliberately slow. Thus allowing for therapeutic lateral gaze development. Highly important in developmentally delayed children.

My kids love marble runs so this seemed like a perfect gift idea for my 11 month old. It turns out my 3 and 5 year old loved it too. The only problem I have is that we received it a month ago for Christmas and it's already broken in multiple places. The plastic tabs that connect the pieces together break off very easily, rendering the toy useless. I was very disappointed in how easily it broke; it's a children's toy, building it to withstand the pulls and tugs of children should be a given. It wasn't worth the money spent in my opinion.

Pros: The balls are a great size. They roll down the slides very slowly which is nice for my 1 year old to watch. There area a couple of spots for her to drop the balls in.

Cons: The structure as a whole is pretty unstable. To drop the balls down my baby wants to hold on to the top. As soon as she grabs any part of the top of the toy the thing is falling over. Too bad it's not more sturdy.

Overall, this may be a good toy for a kid that stands alone and does not want to touch or lean on the top of the structure. For my child, this toy is in the closet until she is older. I will probably purchase another, more stable ball run toy.

My son is 30 months and had high interest in this toy. Unfortunatley he was able to break it from taking it a part and putting it back together. There are two clear pieces on the top and under the yellow tier that kind of snap together and the plastic broke right off it no longer stands. Huge bummer!

My son got this for Christmas when he was 14mths old. At that time he was a little frustrated with the instability of the toy itself. He would break the ramps while playing and could not fix it but by around 1 1/2 it became an absolute favorite and now that he is 3 there is still not a day that I don't hear the familiar sounds of this ball drop.
