The best toy, $ for $, my family has had in decades!
I'll keep it short & simple - this this climbing toy RULES! From my 12-month old to my now-9 year old, it has seen daily use, in my living room, since Christmas 2012. Two children labelled "hyperactive" used it to blow of steam, gain coordination & awesome muscle tone. I never once needed to encourage 'em, they took to this like little lemurs, scampering around it, flipping, leaping, you name it. When my youngest daughter was just shy of 12 months, she determinedly climbed it, fell on to the pillows below and repeated. She's almost a little acrobat now. They've turned it into a swing using cheap blankets, a little play house, a hiding spot, nap spot and just a place to hang upside down while watching 'toons. If i had the space, I'd have bought another and lashed 'em together into a climbing =ball=. Tough as nails too. Isn't easy to assemble and you really need to leave it assembled because the fitting are pretty tight and you DON'T want the connections to loosen, so leaving it set up might be a problem for some. I got it on sale for $100 and I've never felt so satisfied with a toy purchase. The picture is my 8-YO on top and the swing they made from an old blanket.
