## Description

From the manufacturer

Review: Great quality - Excellent , my grandson loves his
Review: Intriguing and mesmerising - I first came across this item at a preschool/school meeting - staff brought in various items they have in their particular setting that would be relevant to physical literacy. I saw this latches board, and (pardon the pun) I was hooked! Not only is it great for little fingers to develop hand/eye coordination and fine motor skills, but it enhances the imagination. I ordered one for my setting, and also one for my home for my children and grandchildren to enjoy. It is used daily by many children, and stands the test of time - not to mention abuse! What a brilliant, colourful, hands-on puzzle. You (and your children, if they get a look in) won't be disappointed!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Genius gift for busy fingers
*by R***S on 26 December 2015*

Bought as a Christmas present for my 13 month old after he played with one at a toddler group and it was the most played with present on the day. He LOVES opening and closing the doors which I have unlocked, and shouting "gone!". In the future I'm sure he can start to figure out the locks for himself. The numbers, colours, buildings, and animals will be a language prompt in the future too. My 7 year old also enjoyed figuring out how it worked. Don't be put off by the age 3+ recommendation. This is for "elf and safety" reasons. This toy contains small parts which in the unlikely event that it comes apart could cause a choking hazard, along with obvious hazards like if it gets trodden on by small bare feet. Definitely a toy to play WITH an adult, but aimed more at the under 3s than over. This is an occasional toy so the younger you buy it the more value it will be.
