Great car toy!

My 1 1/2 year old loved manipulating the beads while siting in his car seat. Even his 4 year old sister found it entertaining! As with all M&D toys, it is well made.

Product is of high quality. It is a gift to a friend and I'm sure that her son will use as much as my child had.

My 10 mo. old grand-daughter was not too interested in this toy. It was hard to handle if it was not placed on a surface using suction cups to keep upright.

Not the best
Posted 2/17/2010 by Brooke Crass

This toy isn't big... so if you are expecting a big bead thing, this isn't it!
If this 7 inch bead maze doesn't measure up, don't dismay. We're oversized in terms of our customers' satisfaction! If any Fat Brain Toy does not meet your expectations, please visit the Returns & Exchanges center.

My 1 year old grandchild received this item for Christmas and loved it. She was fascinated with all the colors and had lots of fun moving the beads all around the maze. It is well made and will hold up for lots of playtime. Recommend this!

This product was a Christmas present for my 1 year old niece. The quality and construction was excellent, the price was great and she liked playing with it. Her mom loved the fact that it has suction cups on the bottom, so she can stick it to her high chair tray, or on a table at a restaurant.

Fantastic Toy
Posted 4/19/2009 by Diana Harmon

My 7 month old daughter first played with this toy at a friend's house and she enjoyed it so much I ordered one as soon as we got home. The strong suction cups make this the perfect highchair toy, and it provides her plenty of stimulation while I prepare her meals. I like that this toy feels very well constructed and seems like it will last through more than one child. I plan to buy more Melissa & Doug products in the near future.

My rating of First Bead Maze

Setting: Home

The First Bead Maze keeps my 8 month old son's attention for long periods of time. This toy works his hands and helps him to incorporate and improve his visual motor skills. The suction cups are great because right now my son likes to throw everything onto the floor and he can't toss this toy thanks to the suction cups. It is a well designed sturdy toy and my little one is really enjoying it.

It is very sturdy. The beads move easily. My grandchildren really like it. There are no parts to get lost. They cannot pinch themselves on it. I was very satisfied with it.

Purchased for an 11 1/2 month old boy, but I enjoy it as well. I can see using this as a desk toy when my son outgrows it. The suction cups are very well constructed. The stick to almost any surface (wood, glass, plastic.)

I think it is too small for a 1 1/2 year old. I thought it was larger. Do you sell the large ones?

This works for children of all ages. My daughter is 6 months old and likes to play with this toy while on the floor. Even though the recommended age is 1 and up - i think it is just fine for her and completely safe. Since all the beads are hooked on - there is nothing that can be swallowed or misplaced.

This was a gift for my niece on her 1yr birthday. I haven't heard yet any pros or cons. The day she got it, I know the adults were playing with it a lot. I see these all the time at Dr's offices. Great way to learn colors and shapes.

Well designed with the suction cups for stability. Purchased fora a 6 mos. male child and the 18 mos. female child won't stop playing with this. Simulates the same design in physicians offices which I have always noticed being played with by the young children as well as 10-13.

My daughter in law is very pleased with it as well as the baby. She said she sees them in the baby's Doctor office and all the kids love them. My grand daughter is a bit too small to really enjoy it yet.

These are my 1-year-olds first introduction to Bead Mazes. It is simple enough for him to do, yet adds some complexity options with beads of various shapes/sizes. He really enjoys it. Bottom has 4 strong suction cups to hold it in place. We wish we were able to remove these as he is constantly moving and gets frustrated that he can't take it with him.

This has been a lifesaver. My 6 month old grandson loves to play with the beads and it has provided lots of entertainment for him while seated in his high chair. The design is sturdy, colorful and sized perfectly for small hands. It's fun to watch him study the maze and try to figure out how to move the beads from side to side. My only regret--I didn't purchase it sooner!

The bead maze is used by my one year old grandson and he enjoys watching the beads travel on the wires. The beads on the bottom are more or less extraneous because they don't travel under their own stimulus. The maze is the perfect size for a one year old. The colors and shapes of the beads are very attractive to a baby.

Great first bead maze for young children. My son is 10.5 months old and already likes to play with it for a short while. He mostly likes to watch us move the beads. It should be a toy that will grow with him for awhile.

My one year old has a lot of fun with the toy on his highchair. My only problem with it is that the suction cups are too good - my son gets frustrated that he can't pick it up. Since that's the point of the suction cups, I guess they're working well.
