Melissa & Doug Hide and Seek Wooden Activity Board With Wooden Magnets

Bought this for my daughter when she was around 18 months and she loved it from say 1. I have therefore just bought it as an Xmas present for an 18 month old!At this age they become fascinated with opening and closing things, so even if they do not get the concept at first, the opening, the taking out and replacing is enough to keep then we'll entertained for ages. Then as they get older and learn about each section, they learn where each but goes and why! Kids love this!Super well made and durable. Another winner from Mellosa and doug!

My grandson is only 19 months old and loves playing with the puzzle.Not all the doors open the same way some open to the left and others to the right which means he has to think which way do the doors open. We take all the pieces out and then ask him to find the correct piece for a particular place on the puzzle i.e. where does the doggy live? I know these are meant for age 3+ but he has both this puzzle and the barn hide and seek and loves them both. I would recommend these to anyone who has a little one. I would recommend supervision if they are under the age of 3 as the pieces are on the smallish size not small enough to swallow but with toddlers everything goes in to their mouths!!!

My two year old loved this toy and I took it with us on car/plane/train journeys. It is a great memory training toy and is fun. It is on the simple side, so after a while I can see it becoming boring to him that is why I only use it during journeys - it is like an A4 book size-wise. Sturdy, colourful and overall, great buy.

Really nice toy. Feels sturdy and the magnets behind the doors seem well made. Impressed, it’s better than I expected. I’ve taken off one star as there are a couple of minor dents on the surface.

I thought my 1 year old would be to young for this product but it proved otherwise. At the beginning he liked to open and close the doors, then he found out he can take out all the magnets and shut the doors. Now he is 1.5 year old and if I take all the magnets out he is able to place them back in in proper places. We also play a memory game. I ask him to give me one of the pieces e.g. a dog or a parrot and he guesses where it is hidden. I really like the hide and seek board and would recommend it. It is still looking good after several months, nothing broken.

17 month old grandson loves this. He has been playing with it for a few months and now knows which magnet goes behind which door. He did chew the magnetic pieces to begin with as all babies do but has stopped that now he is bit older. I think he will have plenty more months of fun with it.UPDATE April 2019 - now my granddaughter has inherited the hide and seek from her big brother who is now nearly 5. She loves it as much as he did but unfortunately the car is lost! However we have replaced that with a fridge magnet that doesn’t even have a car on it but fits in the space! We make up loads of different games to play but her favourite is to take out all the magnets, hold them in her hands then I have to ask for them by name. We also play guess the magnet from the back view. I also draw round the magnets on paper and she has to place the magnets on the correct outline. I am sure the missing cow will be found one day!

I'm a HUGE fan of M&D products. Bought it for my daughter who was 17 months and she loves it. She loves opening and closing the doors. And so many fun variations- I ask her 'please coulld you give mummy the cow?' and she opens the correct door.- I hide the magnets in the wrong places and she will put them in the correct place.- I ask her 'who says bow-wow' and she'll open the door and give me the dog- I keep all the magnets in a pile and she puts them in the correct slotIt keeps her engrossed for a long time and she's happy playing independently so I get to drink a cup of coffee while it's still hot for a change!Happy toddler = happy mummy (and daddy!)The only downside is she has chewed a bit of the paper off the edges.

Nice toy.My daughter loves it.She plays a lot with this.Good quality as well.Worth money.

These puzzles are great! I bought them for my grandson and he loves them. Really work on fine motor skills

Giochi bellissimo adatto a bimbi anche di un anno e mezzo! Ottima la qualità, i colori e la fantasia di cose e personaggi. Al mio bambino di un anno e mezzo è piaciuto tantissimo e ci gioca spesso! Assolutamente consigliato! Come tutti i giochi della sua linea..Melissa è una garanzia!!

This magnetic puzzle with doors is absolutely genius! I have to hand it to Melissa and Doug again for creating another amazing item! It's durability and sturdiness is amazing. It will definetly last until my grandson (he's 2 now) will grow out of this kind of puzzle stage.The figures that go inside the puzzle doors are also magnetic and that is an amazing feature as when it's time to put the puzzle away or baby rotates the puzzle...the pieces don't fall off our out of the doors.It certainly will be giftable when he's outgrown it and it's the perfect gift for baby's starting at 7 to 9 months (when supervised of course).

Nach einigen Bedenken vorab doch gekauft und sind zufrieden. Das Spielbrett ist recht massiv/schwer, die Türchen lassen sich gut bedienen und das Kind 16 Monate spielt gerne damit. Leider ist es nur mit einer Art "Folie" beschichtetes Holz, das geht sicher hochwertiger. Da wir aber keine ähnliche Alternative von anderen Anbietern gefunden haben, wurde es doch bestellt. Es ist ordentlich verarbeitet, nichts abgeplatzt, nichts löst sich bisher.

Muy buen juguete, le ayuda mucho a mi hija a manejar sus manitas mejor y es muy resistente a mi hija le gusta mucho jugar y a identificar los animales y cosas.
