Toys and Games Reviews of Melissa & Doug Deluxe Latches Board
Customer Review: Great Toy, A Little Advanced
Summary: 4 Stars
My son loves to try to open things, so he got this for his first birthday. We figured it would be a little beyond him, and it is, but as we hoped he still enjoys it very much. He can't quite figure out how all of the latches work, although at 14 months, he's close to getting a few of them open. He loves to open and close the doors and see what is behind them. I only wish the doors were easier to open once the latches were undone. Note that the board is a little heavy, and some of the latches are sharp.Customer Review: If you have a little engineer in your home - GET THIS TOY!!!

We bought this for our 10mo son who is showing incredible mechanical skills, is extremely observant and already seems analytical (daddy is a physicist). This toy immediately held his interest as his little fingers played with the locks and latches. He and his daddy sit with this toy regularly and work through each door. I seen a homemade version of this toy on a PBS special about critical thinking toys for infants and toddlers...I was thrilled when I found this online! Truly a wonderful toy for our son!Customer Review: Long-lasting fun
Summary: 5 Stars
We got this toy for our son when he turned one recently. Several weeks later, he still plays with it (or "works" on it!) every day, unlike just about any other present he got. We leave it propped up where he can crawl over and play with it on his own. He has gradually been figuring out some of the ways to open some of the doors, but there is still a lot to figure out. If your child loves to play with mechanical devices and take things apart as much as ours does, then s/he will love this latches board.Customer Review: Wonderful concept!

My daughter first saw this toy at a playspace we visit and fell in love. She loves fiddling with things like this. She's only 14 months so I worried about her being well under the recommended age for this, but she's played with it a great deal and I can't see what would be a safety issue. She's not totally adept at doing and undoing all the latches but she's learning surprisingly quickly. This toy seems to have a lot more longevity and ability to sustain interest than the average toy. We love it!Customer Review: Very good for Autistic Children
Summary: 5 Stars
My brother is 27 with severe autism. He is non verbal with the mind of a two year old and needless to say it is hard to find toys for him. With the strength of a grown man none of his toys last very long. I bought this toy for his Christmas and he loves it. It stays by his side all day. He loves playing with the doors and enjoys opening and closing them. The toy is very durable and provides a good challenge for him. I would recommend this to anyone with an autistic child as well as small children.
