This wooden box is really a very beautiful object and is perfect for children from 3 years I think (perhaps before but helped by an adult I think). The five-sided boards therefore propose ten reasons to perform, a small train, a rose, a boat etc ... Small parts are easy to sort and put on the board, the only downside is that n 'There was of course no "edge", so that the child must be accurate and not to move his board once asked his pieces. My 3 year old son really like this set, but I'm her to help him to put his pieces in the right place regularly. This is not a problem of course, but it's still hard for him to be with autonomy. The other drawback, and more painful to me, it is storage: the plastic cover has no attachment system, so that the box does not close. I surround two large elastic but if one takes the box somewhere, beware not to lose small parts. I find that unfortunate. Still, I highly recommend this wooden box of exquisite, with intelligent and fun activities!
