Crayola Beginnings Baby Rainbow Tower

I bought this for my 6 month old last year for Christmas. While it was not played with much I left it in the toy box because my 2 year old used the domes to play with other things. It's been about 11 months so my now 17 month old brings over the base and it has peeling green paint! I can't even touch where it's peeling with out it flaking off. I made sure to get rid of it right away. I would not recommend this item to any one especially those with small children who chew on everything!

Looked forever for it to replace one I gave away. The new one does not work properly. I was very disapointed in it.

Although this toy seems very simple, both of my children (now 2 1/2 and 14 months) have LOVED it! So much so that I'm ordering one for a friend's baby for Christmas. My kids have spent hours with this toy over the last few years. From the time my kids could sit up and grab things (7-8 months?) they really liked playing with this toy with my help, of course! The box states that it is great to encourage child/parent interaction. As they've grown, though both of my kids will play with it independently now, or with my help, stacking and restacking the levels in different ways. This toy is always "on top" of the toybox because it is used so much. I like it because the music is quiet and it encourages a higher level of thinking on the childs part; this isn't just a push the button and it makes noise kind of toy.

The box says 6m+. Well, that is not true. The only correct part is the +. As someone else mention, it is lame. True, the light is supposed to shine through and make the cups change color. False that it actually does this.

Also, the child has to have better dexterity and hand-eye coordination than a 6 month old has in order to appreciate this some what.It is super hard to stack if you're six months old. The grooves are very precise and it only plays a tiny bit of music when you put the cups into the narrow grooves. Once the baby knocks over the stack of cups, nothing happens and then she can't put it together herself.

It's boring, not as advertised, and frankly, not age appropriate according to box. Maybe when she's older ...

If I was writing this review based on my own thoughts, I would give it a 1 star. It's dumb, plays only a short tune and the whole "tower" doesn't light up when the cups are stacked.

However, since this toy isn't for me, my opinion doesn't count for much, except to say it is very durable and has withstood multiple children fighting over it.

My 11 month old absolutely loves this toy. He loves to stack it, he likes the sound it makes, and likes that the lights blink. It's not a fluke either we regularly have his playgroup friends over and this toy gets played with the most.
