Very educational toy
My son got this for his 2nd birthday and it is a beautiful toy. He doesn't quite understand the concept of the game but still he loves to put the acorns on the squirrels back and finds it amusing when they tumble off - It won't be long before he will be playing with it as a game. My 3 year old loves to see how many acorns he can balance on the squirrel and has easily grasped the concept of the game. There are lots if educational aspects to this toy - we have use it for counting, colour recongition, fine motor skills and speach development. I'm sure it will remain a favourite in our house for many years. It was more costly than other balance games I looked at but I'm very pleased with the value for money.

Brilliant toy and it looks very cute
Brilliant toy and it looks very cute. You can make it harder or easier by putting the squirrel on the floor or balancing it on the rocker. My 8 month old loves the brightly coloured acorns and my 2.5 yr old enjoys either balancing them or fitting them together like a jigsaw puzzle. I'm sure he'll get another year or two out of this as its actually quite tough to figure out how to balance all of the acorns. A really lovely and unusual gift.

Great toy
Great quality - bought as a gift and both the 3 year old and 6 year old wanted to play with it straight away. Nice item and different to other stacking type toys.

Very good quality game
A very good quality children's game, makes a nice change from all the plastic toys. My 3 year old loses interest in the game itself quite quickly but she likes to use the nuts in her pretend tea parties etc so it has double use.

Really good toy!
Great toy! High quality materials, well made. 1.5yo baby loves it. She is not into actually trying to balance the nuts on the squirrel just yet, but she does try to build towers with the nuts and just generally enjoys spreading them around and naming the colours.

Very well made product.... Note: ...
Very well made product.... Note: It's impossible to place every nut on the squirrel, leaving me to think that they could have resized either them or it to improve the playability factor. Will outlast time!!

Nuts
Incredibly cute with beautifully interlocking acorns. The secondary colours are all delightful. Children love it but adults will attempt to stack all 20 nuts for the ultimate squrrelicious challenge.

Squirrel fun
This is an interesting toy. One part was lacking in quality, but the manufacturer was kind enough to replace it.
