Great for hands on learning and coordination

June 20, 2025 - By Brenda Pfabfrom Duluth, MN

My daycare children are obsessed with anything that has balls in it and this really keeps them busy for long periods of time!

Yes, I would recommend this product.

Great for preschoolers that love movement toys

April 06, 2025 - By Renee Worthingtonfrom Louisburg, KS

I bought this for a student that is struggling with behavior problems. I was struggling to find something that would keep him interested for more than a few minutes, but this seemed to keep him busy for the entire center time of 15 minutes. I gave it 4 stars because I do think the balls are too small and there are way too many of them. I only give the kids a handful of them and the rest stay in the box (I guess it's good to have extras because some of them get stepped on). Other than that, it is one of the most requested toys in my centers.

Yes, I would recommend this product.

Great for kids of all ages

December 17, 2024 - By Cindy Cartonfrom Durango, Colorado

This toy is the first thing the kids go to when they come to the library! Kids of all ages have learned to cooperate and share when creating their masterpieces. The older kids help the littles when in mixed company. The colors are bright and the pieces are extremely durable. We just love it.

Yes, I would recommend this product.

This is an amazing set that allows my littles to use their creativity. They enjoy working together to assemble new tracks of tubes and tunnels. This is a wonderful and educational toy!

Yes, I would recommend this product.

k-8 years

February 11, 2020 - By Karyn VanRyzinfrom kimberly, WI

Weve had this for several years and have found that our primary grade students love this addition to the white magnet board. Preschool children played with it for a little while then moved on.

Yes, I would recommend this product.

Larger Scale Would be Great!

April 19, 2017 - By ACJWfrom Carson CA

I love the concept but the scale is just too small for some of my audience. I hope that Lakeshore comes out with a toddler safe version- maybe golf ball sized balls and wider tubes.

Yes, I would recommend this product.
