Review: Good quality wooden educational toy for sensible price - I purchased this darling little stacking train made of colored wooden blocks for my 2 year old grandson. He immediately began to shout "Choo-choo" and was impatient to get the plastic wrapping off. After getting it on the floor so he could push it around, his 8 year old brother got interested and talked him out of part of the "train." They both played with it intently for almost an hour while waiting for parents to pick them up. The toy stays at my house so I get to watch the activity. Since I am a retired teacher, I'm always interested in educational toys for youngsters. This one is perfect for 1 yr plus...I won't set a max limit on the age because children of all ages can play with this in different ways. The colored blocks teach color and shape; the holes fit large pegs on the wheeled "cars" which help develop eye-hand coordination; building the "train" is like putting a puzzle together requiring higher level thinking skills, including memory; the "cars" can be separated and used as three rolling vehicles; and the blocks can be used to stack alone or used interactively with other building blocks. I love wooden toys and so do my grandsons! This one is well-built with no small parts that come off to be swallowed or lost; there are no plastic parts to break off or crack; and this toy can be played with inside or outside. I also like the fact that there are no sirens, bells, flashing lights, or talking voices which distract from a child's imagination...and the best part...NO BATTERIES REQUIRED!! Simply made just like back in the good ol' days!

The only problems i've had is that the glue that holds the posts on and the wheels on, is very weak and within a few playings, it all falls apart. **Q: is there only one way to stack the blocks?** A: No **Q: Do the wheels move?** A: Yes they roll easily. **Q: Is this good for 7 months old? Or is it too early for this kind of toys?** A: Too early. The pieces may be too small and a 7 month old likes to put things in their mouth.🌝 ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality wooden educational toy for sensible price *by H***H on December 15, 2013* I purchased this darling little stacking train made of colored wooden blocks for my 2 year old grandson.

What I love about this thing is that it is durable as heck-it takes a ton of abuse, and the paint is still mostly intact on it, despite the fact that our son, who is a heavy oral stemmer, chews on its pieces incessantly. This is a cool developmental toy because it does allow for different ways of putting together the blocks to set the train up. Sometimes, we're still working on that in this house...like today, when he growled at me after I put the pieces on it and then proceeded to rip them back off again, because he wanted to play with it bare. He's definitely a boy who knows his own mind about how he wants to do things, and it's not always the way a toy is designed to be used. But that's the beauty of this toy, you can use it for different things...teaching colors, shapes, and orientation of putting blocks on pegs, because some of them have holes in directions our son doesn't expect, and because he struggles sometimes to generalize things, it's something we're still working on with him, but I do really like that feature of this toy. Overall, I think this is a super cool, fun developmental toy, but by far the most awesome thing about it is how indestructible it seems. ## Frequently Bought Together - Melissa & Doug Wooden Stacking Train Learning Toy Vehicle With 18 Connecting Pcs Wooden Train Set, Sorting & Stacking Toys For Toddlers Ages 2+ - Melissa & Doug Wooden Take-Along Barn Toy with Flip-Up Roof and Handle, 10 Farm Play Pieces, Shape Sorting And Stacking Learning Toys For Toddlers And Kids Ages 2+ --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/1140665-melissa-and-doug-stacking-train-classic-wooden-toddler-toy-18](https://www.desertcart.us/products/1140665-melissa-and-doug-stacking-train-classic-wooden-toddler-toy-18) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
