Pros & Cons
Pros
I bought this toy for my 2-year-old daughters thinking it would be left unopened for a while (it recommends ages 3+). I love it and think it's a great toy! My niece loves it!
The balancing cactus is a wonderful toy. My twins love to build up the cactus until it topples over. They sit together and stack pieces.
It is sturdier than sturdy! Not only that, the design is beautiful and the craftsmanship is top notch.
The game is highly durable. It's a perfect game for young attentions spans. This is a great little game for my 2 1/2 yr old and i do play.
She enjoys watching it fall and with some guided questions learning how to make it balance. It's a toy that will definitely grow with her as she figures out how to balance the heavier pieces.
Cons
This toy looks great on a shelf, but it's otherwise useless. The base is not heavy enough for your child to play with the rest without having to keep one hand contantly on the base. If you let go while trying to stack, it immediately tumbles over.
