Editorial Reviews:
Editorial Review There's lots to see, hear, and do with this toy that will foster the developmental skills of a toddler. When little ones push one of the five plastic balls through the hole at the top of this tower, lights flash and music plays. From there the ball travels down a spiral path all the way to the bottom--unless your toddler chooses to redirect it with the dial on the side of the ramp. Some babies will simply enjoy watching the ball swirl down the ramp. But as babies get a bit older, they will also be able to observe and anticipate the action of the balls and realize that their actions have an effect on where the balls go. How cool is that? For a toddler, very cool! One drawback to this toy is that it probably isn't sturdy enough or heavy enough for babies or toddlers to use it to pull themselves from a sitting to a standing position, though the "Pull-up" portion of the name implies that's possible. There's plenty more to do with this toy, so that is only a minor consideration. |

MIxed emotions, Sep 30, 2023 My daughter loved this toy, and my nephews did too when they came to play, and the kids that I babysit, so the purchase has been well worth it. I still have it in the closet, waiting for my 4 month old to get older to play with it. I loved that the kids had alot of fun with the toy, after all that's important. I never had any safety issues. It never toppled or anything with my daughter (she's 4 now) She actually learned to stand with this toy, and loved it. Occasionally she'll get it out of the closet and play with it but of course at 4, it doesn't last long. I do agree with some of the other reviews that it should have some place to store the balls. They're constantly being lost. I was able to find some little balls that fit in there and work great with it because we have lost a few. Great concept, just needs a few adjustments.

Great Entertainment!, Sep 19, 2023 This was a good buy, I am glad that I read the reviews before I bought it. My son was 10 months old when we got this for him and he has played with it everyday for the last two months. He pulls himself up on it and has no problem with tipping over. He enjoys the lights and sounds, it keeps him interested and he wants to keep picking up the balls and put them back for more. It was very easy and quick to put together.

Very unstable and dangerous toy!, Sep 9, 2023 I bought this toy for my 8 month old last week. Although it has cute lights and entertaining music, this is a dangerous toy. It is very unstable and my son has pulled it over onto himself many times while trying to pull up to stand. He hit his face the first day and yesterday bruised himself badly under the eye from trying again to pull up on it. I intend to call Fisher Price to complain. I would not buy this toy!

Good toy overall, Aug 30, 2023 We have had this toy for 3 years now and its been through 2 of my kids and countless babysat kids. Everyone loves it and in 3 years we have only had to change the batteries once. It would be better if there was a way to collapse it for storage and someplace on/in it to store the balls which are forever being lost. Also, the music gets beyond annoying, more variet would be better. The kids love this toy and so do the cats.

Entertaining and fun for our 16-month old daughter, Aug 29, 2023 Our 16-month old daughter enjoys playing with this toy. It is very entertaining and fun for her to put the balls in the center space, push the clown face, and watch them spin onto the outer rim. Then she pushes the balls through so they travel down the ramp and out one of the four openings. Sometime she is puzzled because they don't come out where she thinks they should. The balls are just the right size for her little hands and she likes to walk around with them. This toy was easy to assemble and the music is upbeat and not too annoying. I think she will enjoy playing with this toy for a long time.
