(1) 9-24 month olds (which this toy is rated for) don't stack up 5 objects--they knock them down. The only way this toy stays assembled as shown is if someone older holds it or constantly restacks it.
(2) The base has two holes for the balls to exit, so even if you position your child in front of one hole, 50% of the time the ball will roll out across the floor on the opposite side, leading to a game of chase the ball and forget the Flap and Stack
(3) Not only do the wings not move much, but a young child who benefits from this toy will have to focus his or her attention on the top to put the ball in. Kids this age are small and close to the toy--they won't change their focus from the top fast enough to even see the wings move. I also agree with the other reviewer about the wings barely moving.
(4) The base makes the music sounds even if the other pieces are missing. My son quickly figured out he could knock over the wing pieces and drop the balls directly into the base to make the music sound more easily
On the bright side, the balls are good and make a rattling noise as they roll.

My daughter loves this toy. We gave it to her a bit premature and she has some trouble getting the ball in when it's stacked all the way up. She likes to play with each individual piece also. I wish it played more than just two tunes but it's a cute toy anyway.Read Best Reviews of Yookidoo Stack Flap N' Tumble Here
My biggest problem with this toy is that there is no built in storage for the balls so the balls can easily be lost and it just annoys me when I want to put away the toy there are loose balls around.I gave it one star because it looks cute, but it's nothing special, it has 2 short little tunes and the wings barely flap. I am not impressed with this company, I just don't think their toys are so thought out. If you are looking for a great toy, stick with Tiny Love! The Tiny Love Musical Stack & Ball Game is a far better product.I bought this for my kids ages 2.5 and 9 mos. They love playing with colorfull toys and especially toys that do more than one thing. This was a disappointment. Although this product wasn't expensive, it still wasn't worth the money. The little "arms" that are supposed to flap barely move.
