 Rainbow Peg Set Jan 06, 2008
By P. Fergeson
This is a great set, with multiple activities in one! My daughter has really enjoyed "lacing" the board, which I didn't know that she would. The only complaint I have, is that the board is foam verses plastic.

Peg Play May 29, 2008
By Amy C. Tank
I decided to purchase a peg board that was a hard surface and not the flexible kind. Unfortunately, the pegs fall out of the holes very easily, so does not seem to be very challenging for my daughter (21 months). She does play with it, but I wish the pegs fit better into the holes.

 a thousand developmental purposes for this toy Mar 10, 2010
By mommer
my child has had this toy for 2 months and is now 10 months old. i mounted this toy on the wall so that my child would have something to play with that isn't on the ground as the rest of his toys are. here are the benefits of this toy:
- helped bring his awareness and gaze off the ground where 90% of other toys are (because i mounted it on the wall), strengthening his neck muscles and trunk, helping to bring his arms up and away from his body
- fine motor - helped improve his grasp as the pegs are really easy to hold onto in his hand - helped strengthen his grasp because they take a little effort to tug out
- fine motor - tactile input of the holes helped him learn to use his pointer independently - putting his finger in the holes on the board and the pegs
- oral motor - taught him how to blow through the pegs - some make a slight whistle noise
- cognitive - i lined the pegs on the floor two feet apart from the living room to the bedroom and he followed them
- "kaboom" - stack the pegs up high on the floor and taught him to knock the tower down
- pull apart - improved grasp and shoulder strength by pulling these pegs apart - tries to put them back together but isn't there yet - has learned to twist as he pulls them apart
- can hang other toys like rings on these pegs which serve as hooks when the board is mounted
- can put the pegs in a clear container and teach him "in" and "out"
haven't even gotten to stringing the toys together with the shoelace it comes with, haven't gotten to counting or colors either as he's still too young to really get that. great toy if you have the time and patience to be creative and teach the baby. plus the colors are great and my friends without kids think this is akin to mod art in my living room.

Pieces don't stack well Aug 08, 2008
By BlueCat
The pegs don't stack easily on top of each other as well as on the yellow board. This yellow board is made of soft plastic and is not stable on surfaces. They may be more fun when threading a cord through them, but stacking proves difficult even for adult.
A favorite at my house Sep 29, 2010
By Linda P
I bought this toy for my granddaughter when she was a toddler. It became an immediate hit. She has lots of toys at home with lights, sounds, etc. I prefer that she plays with toys that require thinking and imagination, not batteries. She loved being able to stack the pegs to her height (and above with some assistance). The pegs are easy for little ones to hold and stack. My grandchildren are now 2 and 4 and they both love this toy, fight over it. They like filling the mat, rearranging the pegs in color patterns or order, stacking in columns of different heights. It is quite stable and tips only if the tower becomes very high. Because the mat is flexible it allows the columns to sway without tipping until they decide to crash them to the floor. This toy is one of my better purchases.
