Buy Wonderworld New Stacking Rings

Customer Ratings:

My wife and I both had fond, vivid memories of the Fisher Price plastic version of this toy from our childhood. It had apparently made such an impact on us in our formative years that we definitely wanted to share that experience with our new baby. But we also love wooden toys, so when we saw this, it was the perfect meeting of the two.

My wife is completely satisfied and says the stacking rings are exactly what she expected, but I had hoped the center post would be conical, and that the rings would be toroidal. Instead, the rings are more like discs, with a uniform hole drilled through each one, and the pole is cylindrical. This means the rings can be put on in any order. It's not a big deal, and I still really like the toy, but a big part of the educational experience I wanted from this toy was the idea that the rings only go on in a certain order. It's a profound logical/mathematical lesson.

Maybe I'm just not enough of a free spirit. I am very happy with the toy; I just wish I'd known ahead of time how it was constructed.

This toy is a favorite of my 13-month old. Even though the toy seems rather primitive for a grown-up, he stacks it and plays with the rings endlessly. The colors on the picture look somewhat "chemical", but in fact they're not as glossy and are very natural-looking yet bright. As others have also noted, the paint does not chip (it is very similar to the paint on Haba blocks). I couldn't find the country of origin listed on the site, but, if anyone's interested, the toy is made in Thailand (at least mine is).

It also feels safe to play with since the rod is very thick with a rounded end. The surface is very smooth. It's a classic toy and I'm sure will be enjoyed and will last for quite a while.

Best Deals for Wonderworld New Stacking Rings

I just love wooden toys and purchased a bunch of Wonderworld and Melissa & Doug toys for our son's first Christmas. As one other reviewer mentioned, this is great for toddlers but our son is 8 months old and still plays with it. The rings are nice and chunky (not too thick) and right now are being used as chew toys. I, on the other hand, play with this toy too in front of our son so he can watch. I stack the rings up without the pole and let him knock the stack over. I twirl the rings around really fast on their sides (hard floor) and he watches them smack into each other. I stack them on the pole randomly and he just watches. I also say the colors as I pick the rings up. Yeah, I know he's too young to understand but he watches and looks attentive when I play with them!

The best thing about this stacker is the pole is a uniform width. For example, the small purple ring fits all the way to the bottom. So you can stack them anyway you like, mixing up the colors and sizes. Someone got us the Fisher Price stacker (many people consider this the classic toy but I like wooden toys best) and the pole is fat on the bottom and small at the top so you can't put the small ring on the bottom. Also, the rings for the Fisher Price stacker are wider and our son can't grasp it well (yet).

A toy that I enjoy playing with totally gets 5 stars and I enjoy playing with it as much as our son loves chewing on it.

Honest reviews on Wonderworld New Stacking Rings

I bought this for our 1 year old granddaughter, and she likes it well. It is sturdy and interesting in a classic toy way. The wood has a nice tactile feel that is superior to plastics, in my opinion, or at least a nice change from all the plastic stuff out there. A child can put it together, take it apart, or play with the pieces. It doesn't light up or make music, but it does what it should and will last until she tires of it, when it can be passed along. The paints are nontoxic, and the workmanship is good, with no rough edges.

I bought this for my baby when she was only 10 months. After working with her, she figured out how to stack the rings on her own. Now that she is over a year, she still plays with it. It is durable, the paint has not come off, and I have had no problems with it. The quality is much better than the plastic ones out there.
