Recommendation: no 4 / 5 from 3 reviews

I got this set to play with my son who is on the autism spectrum. He's 2.5 years old. At times it's hard to get him to let us into his play. He's mostly non-verbal at this point, but communicative with hands and other cues. He loves this set. The cause and effect of dropping a ball in, seeing it come out the other side, it really reached him. He let me into his play and it became a treasured memory. I love the "card/ sheet" instructions that come with the builds, they're perfect. I highly recommend this to anyone with young children who enjoy animals, cause and effect, and eventually putting duplo people through the tubes as well.

Recommendation: no 2 / 5 by Amy Alphin

Between the relatively high cost (especially compared to this DUPLO-compatible marble maze that's just 35$), this product does not make much sense in most homes. The set is not recommended for unguided play in the home.
