Hape Award Winning Spring-A-Ling Wooden Bead Maze

The Hape Spring-a-Ling is definitely smaller than most bead mazes, but it is the perfect weight and size for the age recommendations of 6 months to 3 years. Our infant can easily hold and handle it, yet our toddler still takes interest in it and can readily bring it along in the car or stroller without the bulk. Unlike the product description, the beads are plastic, not wood, which is a little disappointing. It is a little expensive for what you get, so for that reason and the plastic beads, I gave it four stars. I would still recommend it.Pros:Great Size and Weight for InfantsSmall Enough to TravelEntertains Both Infants and ToddlersCan Readily Handle a Toddler's Brute ForceCons:Beads are PlasticSmall (I, personally, see that as a positive though)

Es resistente, piezas que no representan peligro. Es bonito, un regalo sencillo pero entretenedor.

She loves the bead toys so we got one that had a wood base and she kept hitting herself on it. Either tripping or busting her lip. I needed something portable she could carry around. Is now a must have toy in our aresenal for her to play with. She loves it. Perfect size and is made really well. Will buy again for sure. Wish there was more like this in different colors.

We were looking for something new to give our 19-month-old son to play with on a long trip. This worked perfectly! It didn't keep him busy forever, but definitely for a little while. I would put it away, and he would ask to play with it again after a bit. He was really concentrating on moving the beads around. He was trying to move the small, blue wooden bead at the top (you can see it in the picture), but that one doesn't move. It didn't seem to frustrate him too much because he moved on. He also really enjoyed banging it because it makes a fun noise with the metal and beads jingling. The wire was a little thinner than I expected, but it is plenty sturdy. Great toy for the car!

There's not much to it although for the price I didn't expect much. It doesn't hold a childs' attention for too long but it's a decent quick distraction while I'm preparing food for my little one.

This isn't too bad but neither of my twins really played with it for very long. I think they would have done better with a stationary bigger one like at the doctor's office. All they did was a shake it a little bit then throw it to the side. They may have been a little too old for it. Stick to under 1 year maybe.

I have many Hape toys for my LO, but this is not our favorite. Most of time she just ignores it. And it is smaller than I thought it would be.

My daughter doesn't care about toys much. She's 16 months, and toys don't keep her attention for long, but as soon as I showed her this, an excited ooooooooh, came out of her mouth (has never happened before). I let her see it for a minute, but took it back (cause it's a car ride toy for an upcoming long trip, and I want the toys to be new and exciting) and She cried and cried. So I just know this one is gonna be a hit!

Much smaller than expected.

This toy is great for little babies. My granddaughter loves moving the beads and turning the toy around. Small and light for their use.

Good quality, nice bright colours & very light weight. My son has played with it everyday so far. I would recommend this item.

thought this would be alot bigger, thankfully they accept returns...

Really nice item
