WONDERFUL FOR CHILDREN WHO LOVE TO PLAY SCHOOL PRETEND AND PLAY SCHOOL IS FOR CHILDREN 3 AND UP AND MY 8 AND 10 YEAR OLD CHILDREN JUST LOVE IT! IT IS ONE OF THE FEW "TOYS" THEY PLAY WITH FOR A LONG TIME. IT FOLDS UP NICELY AND NEATLY AND CAN BE STORED OUT OF THE WAY. I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS IN A STORE AND FOUND IT ON AMAZON AND JUST KNEW MY 8 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WOULD LOVE IT. IT ENCOURAGES ROLE-PLAYING ALONG WITH SHARING AND TAKING FAIR TURNS SO THAT EVERYONE GETS A CHANCE AT BEING THE TEACHER. THE POINTER IS WHAT MY DAUGHTER LIKES MOST AND THE SUPPLIES ARE COOL AND FUN AND NEATLY STORED IN THEIR OWN COMPARTMENTS. IT IS MADE OF HIGH QUALITY MATERIALS AND IS NOT SOMETHING THAT WILL RIP OR BREAK EASILY. WE ARE VERY HAPPY WITH IT!!
Great gift for grandkids! We sent this to our 4 year old granddaughter for her birthday. According to her dad (our son) she and her 7 year old brother started playing with it immediately and played non-stop for 3 hours. Our granddaughter said the pointer and calendar were just like the ones her teacher has. Her dad told us it was a great gift!
Good school set My daughter saw a school set in another catalog and wanted it for Christmas. I found this one which was cheaper and I liked that you could fold it all up in its own carrying case. My daughter loves it. She is 6 1/2 and in 1st grade which is probably prime "playing school" time. If you have a child that plays school anyway, this is a great toy for them. I like the colorful papers and that it is compact. You do need to buy your own wet erase markers but I read that on the other reviews and just bought them ahead of time before I gave it to her.
School teacher in the making This was the one present that my daughter asked for this Christmas and it has seen a good deal of use. She should have the smarted stuffed animals in town! The tri-board set up is make of a heavy nylon fabric and should be sponge washable. The teaching manipulatives are laminated and there are a substantial number of accompanying pieces, but not so many that I have found them around the house. The entire set up folds neatly and has a carrying handle. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the product and delighted that I got it for half the price listed in various children's play specialty catalogs.
Daughter Loves It! My 8 year old daughter loves to play school with her 6 year old sister. She ordered this after Christmas, and it is her favorite gift.
