Birthday present

I bought this as a gift for my 2 year old grandson, he really loves it and can name all the pets! The animals are good colours and made with non toxic materials and the cards are wipeable.

Matching

Bought this for my 2 year old grandson. The animals are great but unfortunately don’t match up with the cards very well . The bird in particular was a bit confusing for him . Overall a bit limited I feel , I love the product so it might be that we need to try a few more times . It’s such a great idea

Excellent for engaging little ones

I bought several busy bags from Busy Bots. My 18 month old daughter engages with all of them at different levels, but on the whole they have been an excellent addition to our toy set. One of their great qualities is that many of them allow a few different exercises with toddlers, prolonging her interest in them, and provide material for interaction between her and I during play time.
