User questions & answers

Question:	Have these magnets ever left scratches when used on a stainless steel refrigerator
Answer:	Yes I took them off my refrigerator because they left scratches and put them on a magnetic board.
Question:	Are the images on stickers pressed onto the wood or are they painted on
Answer:	The images are printed on paper & glued to very nice, smooth plywood with a magnet on the back. The images can be chewed off by a small child.
Question:	Do the magnets have lead in them
Answer:	I called Melissa & Doug and they verified there is no lead in any of their products (including magnets). Also, all paint is non-toxic.
Question:	is it a small magnet on the back that could come unattached, or does the magnet cover the entire backside? are they suitable for a 15 month old
Answer:	The magnet covers the entire back of animals. A 15 month old may find them fun. When you are in the kitchen, they can use them on the fridge or a metal cookie sheet. Take out the smaller animals due to choking hazard.They are made of durable wood...just in case you have a nibbler. Hope this helps :)

User questions & answers

Question:	Why does this show under "toys made in the usa" when it clearly states made in china
Answer:	I mounted this right on the wall at kid level, in the nurses station. Elementary students were so nervous and full of anxiety that they peeled the paint off the wall where they waited for the nurse. Let's face it when kids feel sick the school nurse is not mommy. Well now the students are so busy playing this they are less anxious about seeing the nurse, the paint stays on the wall and the nurse can easily wipe it clean. Every Elementery Nurses station should have one or two of these.,
Question:	Is this awesome or not? Kids get a lot of use or did they get bored
Answer:	My 3 1/2 year old got about 30 min. of quiet play out of it on a road trip when given to him for the first time. I showed him how it worked and challenged him along the way (i.e. can you put all the balls in the circle). He continued to go back to it with a shorter attenton span each time, but I still chalk it as a win. I buy very few new toys but usually pick up something for each road trip to work the wow factor. This item was worth it for us. I will keep it packed away for the next trip.
Question:	Is this a good airplane toy and will my almost 3 year old get enough play to justify price
Answer:	The balls are very well secured inside. The toy is sturdy and safe. This is a great toy for toddlers through young school age. It is one of my kids favorite car trip toys. Hope this helps.
Question:	do the balls come out of the puzzle or are they secured inside
Answer:	Just like any buckle, yes, a child could get a tiny bit of their finger in the buckle by accident. However, they aren’t super stiff so my child hasn’t had this issue.
