Our toddler tester had a ball with this intriguing, put-and-take "gumball" machine! Drop the balls inside the globe, then learn how to release them down the chute. There's three solutions waiting to be discovered: lever, key, and knob. Scoop the balls out, then start again. Fun, simple cause-and-effect learning; good for developing dexterity, too. Includes 12 colorful balls. For ages 12 months and up.

Comments about Parents Goody Goody Gumdrops:

This is a great toy! With any toy with balls, you'll always have to clean them up, as the kids take them out constantly. But my 12 month old son caught on very quickly...without us even showing him..you just have to open the door to get the balls out..He loves this toy!

Comments about Parents Goody Goody Gumdrops:

I think the idea behind this toy is a good one. However, the person who designed it really didn't think it through too well. And yes, I read all the reviews and now know they were all correct. It's important to note that this toy was purchased for my 16 month old daughter who is of average size. First, here's how the toy is supposed to work: the balls are held in a rather large container on top; there are 3 levers from which baby can choose from to make these balls come swirling down (a couple at a time) into a chamber below where there is a plastic door-flap baby has to lift in order to get the balls out and start the process all over again. Here are the problems: two of the 3 levers are VERY hard to move - one must be pulled back and forth and the other has to be turned like a key. The last lever is a simple one - merely a tab baby can press down on and here come the balls! The other two levers would be terrific in the development of fine motor skills if IT DIDN'T TAKE THE STRENGTH OF SAMSON TO MOVE THEM. So what happens? My daughter gets frustrated and doesn't want to be bothered with it or Mommy (that's me) has to turn all the levers for her. In addition, and by far my biggest concern, the door at the bottom is way too small (like others had mentioned). The plastic door-flap (which is a hard plastic) can be held open by propping it up on the yellow tab above it. This presents 2 problems: 1) this yellow tab is the only lever that functions the best. Once it's being used to hold the door open it can no longer be used as a lever. This kind of makes playing with this toy futile and 2) if you DON'T use the tab to hold the door open and baby tries to pull the balls out by just letting the door flap hang down, the edges of the door are rather sharp and tend to scratch the back of my daughter's hand. I realize that this maneuver is difficult to describe, but please believe me when I say, it's not the safest of toys. I actually like most of "Parents" toy line and have quite a few of them. Hence, I'm surprised they would create such a terrible baby toy. Bottom line: don't buy this item.

Comments about Parents Goody Goody Gumdrops:

Got this for my grandaughter and I agree with the other review, all I pick up is balls and she gets mad at the door where the balls are SUPPOSED to come out. All she does is put the balls in the top and try to take them out at the top, if she can get them, (stuck nana help, help). Don't wast your money.

Leaps and Bounds Response: Thank you for your feedback. Please remember to remove all internal packaging before use. There is a piece of plastic taped inside the little door that must be removed before play. Please contact our Customer Service Department with any questions.

BORING TOY!

By MoeMomof2

from Paramus, NJ on 10/15/2009

Gift:

Yes

Bottom Line:

No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Comments about Parents Goody Goody Gumdrops:

Your child will play with this for 10 minutes and be bored to tears, he/she may play with the balls and you will have to pick them all up! Both my kids had a hard time removing the ball from the little door. This was a gift to my son that was put in the garbage within a month!!! Don't waste your money!
