Melissa & Doug Deluxe Pound and Roll Wooden Tower Toy With Hammer

Bought this for our nineteen-month-old granddaughter. At first, she wanted us to pound the balls for her. Now, a couple of weeks later, she goes at it with gusto, both pounding or pushing the balls through the openings. She hasn't yet worked on associating the colors, but that will come with time.

Our 22-month old grandson pounds and reloads the colorful wooden balls over and over and over, and loves to watch them tumble through the yower and come out at the bottom. The quality is excellent and lots of multisensory learning happens with every turn.

I bought this toy to replace an old version by another company that was missing the balls. This updated toy is beautifully made. It is sturdy and colorful. It was perfect for our 25 month old grand-daughter. Preschoolers love repetition. Our grand-daughter exclaimed "I pounding!" This toy will provide many opportunities for fine motor development, including eye-hand coordination and strengthening.

I gave this to one of my grandsons for Christmas. He loved it! He immediately started hitting the balls through the little tower. My other grandson, who is likely younger, decided that he wanted to play with the balls. So, both grandsons had fantastic Christmas with this toy.

. It was a hit from the moment we opened it!! At 20 months he was ready to pound away! His grandpa just had to demonstrate how it's done twice and he took over after that. I would recommend this toy to others for sure.

Our toddler really enjoys this toy. She loves pounding with both hands. She also rolls the balls across the hardwood floor as they make a different noise than her other rubber ball toys.

My 2 year old daughter loves this toy. It is better than the peg toys because the balls make a cool sounds going through the center of the tower. She likes picking the balls up an placing them back on top.

This Pound & Roll Tower has a lot of potential. When our 2 year old grandson was introduced to this toy we were pleased to see how long it held his interest. He was only successful hitting two of the four balls through the holes on his own. My husband & I found the same two balls required much more force to get through the holes. I imagine when our grandson develops more muscle/coordination he'll enjoy this toy even more.

I like this toy very much but my grandson not so much. I can't seem to get him to play with it correctly. He just likes to throw the balls, he's not interested in hitting the balls through the holes at all. He likes to watch the ball drop through the tunnel but he loses interest in that also pretty fast.

The red ball falls right through since it is slightly too small and one of the ramps broke within 5 minutes of first use. Very disappointed in the craftsmanship and lack of quality control on this product.
