Busy Book for Kids, Montessori Autism Sensory Educational Toys, 12 Pages Toddler Preschool Activity Binder and Early Learning Toys - for Boys & Girls Develops Fine Motor Skills

This book has actually kept my toddlers attention and he wants to do these activities. He loves to go through the pages everyday. It has become apart of our routine and he gets so excited. I love that he can learn on his own if he ever wanted to, but it’s really great for teaching as you’re going along. It’s also great for coordination.Putting the Velcro together myself wasn’t too bad and actually quite satisfying to do, but it did take a while so be prepared to sit for a bit (I probably took longer than I would’ve because I was watching a movie while doing so).The only con I have is that I think my book was used as I was halfway putting the velcros on and I found a long mark from a marker. It seems they tried to clean it and couldn’t because I even tried and it barely budged. Not that big of a deal though because everything else was in good condition and it was too tedious to return, especially since my son loves it.Overall, I love this board book and I wish I discovered it sooner instead of trying to make my own as that was much more expensive and time consuming. This book is easily worth the measly $20.

Love love this book. Very well made and making learning fun!

My 4 year old loves using this each day! Setup took a while, but is sturdy and definitely a favorite!

I bought this for my daughter opting to take a chance given the reviews. First, don't be silly and try to attach the velcro to the pieces and the pages separately; messing up your alignment. Stick the clear side on the book's corresponding spot, place the velcro piece for the attaching piece to the clear side with the adhesive up, and push the attaching piece onto it. Poof. Perfectly aligned, cuts your assembly time dramatically, and nullifies the bulk of the negative nonsensical reviews. My partner spent all of 30 seconds planning out how to start the assembly and figured that out. Think smarter. Not harder. Also, I have no idea where the term "gluing" is coming from. It's basically a bunch of velcro stickers.Now, onto my actual thoughts of the product. Yes, there's a fair amount of assembly. Even with a more streamlined and efficient approach, it took a good hour and a half to two hours to stick everything while being semi-cautious about how it's placed. If you have the time, it's worth it and a fair way to spend a quiet evening. The stock used for the pages and the pieces are mostly good. However, some of the more elongated pieces are prone to bending a bit. No serious damage, but that's why I took a star off for sturdiness and durability. 90% of the pieces are very sturdy, and even the ones that bend a bit only show light creasing where they're too long for one attachment point. They don't snap in half or anything.We were lucky enough to recieve a book that was printed properly and had all corresponding pieces (along with accurate colors and labels). So, no complaints there.There are plenty of themes to choose from, and each page does a great job of matching up the pieces to the pages in an educational, yet child-friendly, way.Overall, it was a good purchase. I'd like to see the crayon page that teaches colors see a slight revision for thicker stock on the cutout crayons, but that's the only complaint. Everything else is made in a durable and high-quality manner. Just don't hand it over to your kid without assembling it first.If there are long-term issues, I'll gladly update this in a reasonable manner, but I am impressed with the product in general.

The media could not be loaded. This is a great learning book. Fosters talking, thinking, discrimination, similarities, differences, order, and so much more. Great bonding activities between child/older child/adult. Best when used as a structured activity at first- building vocabulary, discrimination, matching. As learning progresses, it is a great independent activity. Advanced learning thru higher level communication and incorporating spelling! This is fabulous. Sturdy. Great zip bag for book and pieces storage. Extra Velcro sets included. Easy to manipulate with little fingers. Adult supervision as some pieces are smaller and could be a choking hazard. This teacher recommended! I’ve purchased 3 different varieties!!

Definitely recommend

It’s perfect to do therapy and nurture developmental skills in children

The book is nice, but there are dozens of tiny Velcro circles that we have to attach to each page and every piece of the book. It’s very inconvenient and time consuming especially when you have a toddler to keep an eye on. I’ve seen books with all of the Velcro attached already so I’m unsure why this was made this way.
