 A Hit!! Dec 26, 2006
By Lady Xanthe
"ladyxanthe"
I'm impressed with this toy. It's all-wood construction. Very smooth, well-sanded, no sharp edges. Hit the rubber spot with the mallet, and the ball rises up and out of the tower, rolls around the tower on the colored "walls", and rolls back into the base of the tower, ready to be hit again. The very young will enjoy the repetition (no batteries required!). The slightly older (in our house, at least) enjoy testing various "tricks", such as what happens if I hit it harder? lighter? at the edge of the lever arm instead of on the red dot? etc. We found it to be enjoyable for all ages. I appreciate the solid construction. It's very sturdy, bottom-heavy (nice) and quite lovely wood grains, too.

good for motor skills... Aug 28, 2009

Got this when my daughter was about 16 months.....it didn't capture her attention for long periods of time...i mean there is only so much times you can hit it for enjoyment. but it is good for building eye and hand coordination which was the primary focus when I decided to purchase this product.

Love it Jul 10, 2009
By K. Lawrence
This small, simple toy is surprisingly fun to play with. Not only is it really pretty to look it and superb quality, but it's educational and fun.

 Pounding What? Jan 05, 2010
By Barbara M. Mason
"Grammy"
Did not like this toy. A flat stick needs to be inserted before you can hammer the red ball to make the other ball go up and around. First my 18 mo old can not figure out what, how or why you need to insert the stick. Second it takes a really hard wack to make the ball move. It is made well and pretty but useless.

this is a stupid design Feb 06, 2011
By Karyn L. Kirk
This is a retarded design. I don't know how come other people's children didn't take it apart immediately, but I saved it from my first child, who just took it apart instead of banging the mallet onto the REMOVEABLE lever that flips the ball up and gave it to my second child born 3 years later. He did exactly the same thing! Both children were far more interested in removing the piece that makes it work than actually using the toy as designed. There's not much entertainment value in removing the lever. It's pretty much a dead end street for fun. I think Plan Toys stopped making this toy, and that is good, because Aunt Tamar wasted 30-40 dollars on this dumb thing.
