Good Large Lacing Toy My daughter received this for her 2nd birthday. I chose this as an introductory lacing activity for her, as the cards with wool are too advanced for her skills. She enjoys playing with the chunky wooden washing – likes to hold it against her body as if trying it on! I thought she would need quite a bit of help to actually lace, but after only a couple of practice sessions, I think she’s got the hang of it. The wooden needle is at least 2 inches long and thick, which is pretty easy to poke…
String Toy I bought this for my 2 1/2 year old daughter. Sheliked it at first but then lost interest. I have come up withsome games so that interest can be rekindled. My biggestcomplaint is that the paint began to chip off almost instantly.This is a toy with pieces that are designed to smack into oneanother; it should be sturdier. Otherwise, it is colorful andeye catching.
Leave the wash and string in the hamper on laundry day. I am a speech pathologist who works with two year old children (Early Start.) They do not like it because they can’t relate to it. They love the stringing cars and animals but none of them ever choose the wash and string. It stays lonely in my toy bag. I would love to exchange it for almost anything else. If that is a possibility, please let me know
