Editorial Review |
|
Variety is the spice of life, especially for toddlers. The Flip 'n Play table answers the call. It comes with a two-sided insert and stands 13 inches off the ground. The table's strong point is its vast array of features: a miniature rotary phone, a small flipbook of circus animals, three each insert number and letter shapes, a jingling flip handle, a clock with spinning hands, and a mobile of colorful, spinning "balls within balls." But that's not all. A lever easily activates a circular train track with attachable train. A button next to the lever sets off an authentic train sound. Flip the entire insert over and you have a building table for blocks of squares, circles, rectangles, pyramids, and cat and dog heads (all included). Your child can build a multiplicity of configurations. For even more fun, add to this play center from a wide range of available accessories. --Sandy Hirsch |

Great long last toy! |

We bought this for our son's 1 year birthday. He is now 2 years old and still plays with it. Worth the money. Long lasting and provides hours of fun |

I bought it when my son was 12 month old. He loved it from the day one. |

Are the train's wheels a choking hazard? |
|
I bought this a few days ago for my 10 month old son. The first time he played with it, he spent over an hour exploring all the features!! For the most part, we're both very happy with it. Last night, though, I was looking at the wheels of the little train. Since my son loves to bag his toys on the tile floor, it seems that the wheels could break off, and cause a choking hazard. Well, it's no problem to simply take the train away, but I wish I'd bought a toy that he could *completely* enjoy! |

Without a doubt, the Flip `n Play Table by Chicco was my son's favorite "baby" toy! In fact, my boy wasn't willing to give it up until he was 3-years old. I could probably write pages, and pages about the Flip `n Play Table, because it was so well loved, and the developmental qualities are endless. I emphasized the word "baby" in the first sentence of the review, because I think the age recommendation could easily be altered to 9-months and up. William was 8-months old when he received this table at Christmas, and he needed very little introduction. He played with the spinning sphere with beads, and the clock with spinning hands, because developmentally he wasn't able to do the other activities. The sphere rattles and makes lots of noise, which always entertains little ones. The phone, and the button that makes choo choo sounds were early favorites too. We didn't use the leg supports for probably 3-months; because William wasn't walking yet, and I was concerned he might fall forward. Once he was steady on his feet, the leg support went on and he would stand, or kneel up to the toy. Then, when he started climbing, he'd climb right inside the bin with all the blocks, and play. It was the cutest thing, although, I had to put a stop to that because I wasn't comfortable with him being 13" off the floor even though we have carpeting. I'd take the legs off the table, and he'd climb in the bin while it rested on the floor. He was just as happy that way, and I didn't have to worry about him falling.
Once he understood that the lever activated the train, he was in heaven. It makes a loud winding sound, which startled him at first, but then he enjoyed the noise. We'd wind the track time, and time again. At about that time he started playing with the shape sorter too. Unlike other shape sorters, this one requires you sort the shapes properly. There are only three shapes, a circle, a square, and a triangle so it's rudimentary. I think the last activities that my son was able to do was flip the book, and manipulating the rotary dial. He didn't stack the blocks for quite some time either. He'd play with the blocks, mostly twirl them on the floor, and bang them together. He was almost 2 before he started stacking, and building with the blocks. On his first birthday, I added a supplementary set, the Light `N Sound Circus Train, which really added to the play value of this toy. It gave him more blocks to stack, and since there's no stacking order, the designs are endless.
I'm especially satisfied with the performance of the Flip `n Play Table. It's extremely durable, and easy to care for as well. I've placed the bin, the legs, and the blocks in the dishwasher without concern. Due to the mechanisms, the tabletop should be cleaned with a damp cloth. Chicco make exceptional toys that are developmental yet, fun. I highly recommend this plaything, and the Chicco line of products.

Terrific Table |
|
It's got bells--and whistles! Plays train sounds and the clack clack bell sound of a train crossing. You wind up the track for the train manually, put the train on it and away you go. I LOVE the fact that this toy is not a battery-eater like most of his others, and that it does double duty as a block-building table, too! Alex at 17 months still plays with this; we got it for him at 9 1/2 months. He loves to take the top off and sit in it, or sit on the floor on his knees in front of it and use the inside area for a little table to eat a snack off of. He has his own table and chairs, but sometimes he prefers to use this. THERE ARE NO SONGS THAT PLAY, AND NONE WERE ADVERTISED, despite a previous reviewers comments. There are two versions of this table available--this one, and the so-called new, improved, electronic, musical version, which I think pales in comparison to this original. Who needs one more musical toy that does everything but allow the kid to use their imagination and play? Not me! And if you want a good old-fashioned toy, that your kid will love for a long time and that will stand up to that type of use, get this. You'll be glad you did. I only wish I could find more of the plastic blocks that come with this by themselves, rather than in playsets that are sold separately. |
