Toys and Games Reviews of Quercetti Fantacolor Junior Pegboard Set
Customer Review: Meh. It's ok but not as good as I had hoped.
Summary: 3 Stars
I had really high hopes for this one and was delighted when my sister selected this as a birthday gift for my son.
My little boy is 26 mos old and generally prefers puzzles and blocks as toys. He doesn't care much for cars/trucks. So I thought this toy with lots of manipulatives would be super fun for him.
What I discovered, sadly, is that although he is happy when you present this toy to him, he is not long entertained by it. There is a plastic frame with holes for the buttons/pegs to fit into, and the picture cards slide into notches on the backside. Think Lite Brite.
The unfortunate thing is that even if you fit the buttons into the holes properly to "complete" a picture of a dragon/house/etc, the mosaic that results really looks nothing like a dragon/house/etc. You just have a blob of buttons/pegs.
Also, the pictures are confusing. Once you insert one of the picture cards into the plastic template frame, you're not sure what to do for lots of the holes. Many of the holes are half green, half white. Do we put a green peg in here? Or leave it empty? Whichever you choose there is a big outcome on the final product.
My boy does enjoy the mechanical activity of insertion/removal but that's about it. This is a textbook three-star toy.
