Review: Storage box, challenging, mini - This game can get every where if not contained. The pieces are small and will roll away from you if you’re not watching. The box it comes in is perfect for storage. Very durable, great quality. It’s mini and can be easily thrown into the bag for travel (especially helpful with my kids on the go) to keep them busy at a restaurant or coffee shop!
Review: Great toy, just a bit small - The product is super cute but I will admit it’s quite a bit smaller than I thought. My 2 year old will try play but it is a bit harder with how small the pieces are. While I think he can use it as he keeps growing, it is definitely a choking hazard for smaller children. So as long as parents are around it should be fine!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Storage box, challenging, mini

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great toy, just a bit small
*by A***E on September 7, 2021*

The product is super cute but I will admit it’s quite a bit smaller than I thought. My 2 year old will try play but it is a bit harder with how small the pieces are. While I think he can use it as he keeps growing, it is definitely a choking hazard for smaller children. So as long as parents are around it should be fine!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice as a "creative toy" but too small for the intended game.
*by A***. on March 4, 2022*

This cactus topples over easily and it's just too small to be used as intended. It is impossible to insert the first peg without holding the base. However, this cactus could be used as a sculpture toy to copy patterns, just be creative, or even a decorative piece. The cactus is made out of high quality materials and would be great if you don’t want to play the game.
