I ordered this as a birthday present for a kiddo I know and he loved it. It kept him entertained and helped strengthen his finger skills while trying to put the beads on the string. The bead sizes are perfect for kiddos who need to work on their finger strength.

I didn't expect much, because I don't like Melissa and and Doug puzzles and I've found a lot of their other toys to be cheaply made. I was pleasantly surprised by this bead set. The colors are vibrant. It's pretty and durable. I got it for my almost 17 month old, who learned to string beads from the Lovevery bead toy. Even better, these beads fit the Lovevery string! I actually prefer the Melissa and Doug beads, but I like that we can use them together, since my daughter still has trouble with the shoelace string. She also immediately put the beads in her mouth, but I expected that and supervise her. Some of the pieces are smaller than I'd like, but I've seen worse from toys that didn't recommend 3+. Her fingers are too large to get stuck in the holes, so that's not a concern either. I also like that beads can be used as loose parts. Overall, it's a great toy for the price that will grow with her.

We love this toy! It’s perfect to hone in on fine motor skills. We love the variety of shapes and colors. It’s perfect size to play with and easily put away. If your little puts things in their mouth, this is not an independent play toy.

My 2 year old does like these. I’m docking a star because it seems quality similar to other Melissa and Doug products is missing from these. A lot of pieces have rough edges that make them difficult to glide, some holes are crooked & a few pieces even have cracks in them. I’ll attach photos to show. That being said - we’ve had them for a month and they’re holding up okay.

Nice solid beads and lace. My monster chews on everything eventually and though the plastic on the lace ends looks chewed on, it hasn't come apart and the laces are still in good shape. She uses the beads for all kinds of things in pretend play and they still look brand new. Great product!
