Totally cute but...
By Jessica Sorenson
I didn't realize that the circle "shell" part of the turtle comes off the turtle. It just sits on the back of the turtle, so it falls off easily, but it does make fun noises (when the shape blocks are inside) as you pull the turtle around, which my daughter loves One side has the shapes cut out to sort and the other side is a big hole with a string running across it. The shapes just fall right out once you stick them in their spot. They don't stay in very well and fall out all over the place when you start to pull the turtle- which means the fun noise stops and my daughter loses interest in pulling it around. I get WHY it's designed the way it is, I just think a little more thought would iron out the kinks. The quality and colors are fantastic.

Great toy
By 1118sunflower
My son loves this. The shape sorter spins as you pull the turtle, but also comes off so the shape sorter and tyrtle base can be played with seperatly.

How much fun will this unique shape sorter be? Each shape features a different color and image. When your child has fit all the shapes into their holes, presto - the sorter gets perched atop a rolling turtle platform and they are off to their next adventure! A two-in-one toy that is truly unique.
