My 3 year old just received this for a birthday gift. His 7 year old sister has been playing with it as much as he has.

It was an instant hit with both.

This is a great fine motor skills activity, as well as color matching and even creative building.

It contains 64 "snaps" they are a great "chubby" size for little hands and seem VERY durable with no conrenrs for breaking, even if stepped on.

It has a wooden peg board to set the picture cards in and pop the "snaps" into.

I think the board is fairly sturdy for this price.

It has 10 reversable picture cards. One side is brighly colored to work on color matching the other side black and white to let the kids color as they want.

The cards seems to be a heavy paper material. Could be ripped easily if mishandled.

The box is worth mentioning because it is not a "complete" box.

It come with a cardbaord box bottom, but is covered with plastic wrap.

This means that after you open it, you have no cover to help contain all the pieces, or stack nicely with other games, toys.

I have mixed feelings about this toy, the pictures is on cardboard sheets,(I don't know how well that will last) There is one wooden pegboard, with large plastic pegs (easy for small hands to hold) But the pegs fit fairly snug and might cause frustration . But all that I think I could have live with if the toy came in a wooden tray-box like the rest of M&D toys, this toy came in a cardboard box that surely is not going to last and where would you keep all the pieces then ?

Best Deals for Melissa & Doug Sort and Snap Color Match

My 2 yo daughter received this as a bday gift. She immediately took a liking to it, as did we. I really believe it helped her learn her primary colors faster. However, I give this product only four stars -versus five; because although, it is educational, there aren't enough color variety amongst the pegs. The pegs consist of four colors blue, green, yellow and red. It would have been great if Melissa & Doug included other common colors for the pegs, such as orange, purple, black, white, etc esp since they have so many different pictures that kids can snap & match. Once my daughter "mastered" the four colors, she lost alot of interest in playing with this toy.

Also, as other reviewers have already mentioned, the packaging for this toy could be alot better. In its current state, there's no container or section just for the pegs; so one could easily lose a peg or two or three. There's no lid or cover for the box, either. So be careful when storing this toy. If it tips out, there's nothing to hold back the contents from spilling over.

Despite the above issues, I would still recommend this toy for its fun & educational value.

Honest reviews on Melissa & Doug Sort and Snap Color Match

I went back and forth about purchasing this for months and finally broke down and bought it for my daughter for her 3rd birthday and I'm so glad that I did. She has played with it numerous times already and my 5 year old son loves it as well. She hasn't had any trouble snapping the pieces into place and can pull them back out just as easily. I love that it gives her the opporunity for independent play unlike some puzzles that she has that she needs help with. I homeschool my 13 year old so it's great to pull out when I need to have some one on one time with him for a lesson while she plays on her own with something that is beneficial to her as well.

I bought this for my 2 year old son who loves puzzles and we love Melissa and Doug products. My son was excited to open this whwn it came but lost interest very quickly.The pictures are brightly colored and the pegs go in pretty easily. I dont like the fact that the pictures are heavy paper it seems they may rip over time and if you dont have them on right the pegs might damage the picture. The box it comes in im afraid it will not last long for storage and then I have no idea how I will store it. Overall this is nice educational toy I'm hoping my son likes it better as he gets older. better box and stronger pictures
