 Disappointing Jun 24, 2010
I purchased this for my grandson. From the pictures it looked like a great learning toy. Since it is a puzzle each piece comes loose so it is near impossible to try and button, zip, etc. even if they did work. The zipper wouldn't zip, the seat belt latch would not release, in fact the only thing that worked like you expected was the snap. Major disappointment for a Melissa and Doug toy.

 Good concept...but stick with the plush doll or bear Jan 17, 2010
Like any other Melissa and Doug product, this is very durable and has stood a 2 year old's worst and now a 12 month old's chewing. However, it's really hard to manipulate the concepts the puzzle is trying to teach because the puzzle piece the function is on is too small so little hands can't button and hold the piece still at the same time. I would just stick with the standard plush doll to help teach zipping, tying, buckling, buttoning and snapping.

 Moronic Design Jan 02, 2010
I originally bought this because my twin daughters needed to learn the basic skills of tying laces, buttoning, etc. But the fact that it's also a puzzle just confuses things--it's almost impossible to perform these tasks when you already KNOW how to do them if the underlying surface is not stationary, let alone learn to do them. I cannot BELIEVE the idiocy of this design. Whoever did this does not have children, was never exposed to them, and did not think about what they would probably do with this. Instead of learning new skills, as I had hoped, they immediately scattered these useless bits of wood about our house, as I knew they would as soon as I opened it. Who didn't see that coming? I would never have purchased this if I knew it came apart, but it was enclosed in tight cellophane and didn't say. I thought it was a solid board, and really, that would have made sense. Being a puzzle doesn't. Don't waste your money.
hard for small hands Aug 15, 2009
I usually love Melissa & Doug toys, but I was dissapointed with this one. The button hole is stitched so tightly that it's hard for toddler-sized hands to put the huge button through it. The belt is also a bit tricky since the holes are close together.
The plus side: it's a basical skills board and puzzle all-in-one, and it's fun to "dress"/"undress" the bear.

Why is it a puzzle? Aug 09, 2009
I purchased the basic skills board to help my 3-year-old learn to tie, snap, zip, clip, button and buckle. It's a bust. He doesn't use it because the functions aren't secured to the base. It's difficult to teach these skills when they're not stationary. And it's large, heavy and cumbersome for him. Being a puzzle just adds to the confusion of its function. I'm going to glue the pieces into place and mount the board to a wall. I think this will turn it into an investment rather than a waste of $[...].
