Maybe it’s the fact that the latches are “real” metal, working latches… maybe it’s the clever little animals and numbers inside each house… or maybe it’s the kid-preferred graphics…

An excellent toy for early learning classrooms. Lots of fun for children with developmental delays and disabilities.

This is a great product! Not only is it excellent for fine motor practice, and fun for the child (my grandson is 18 months old), it is colorful and visually attractive. I was a preschool teacher, and my husband and I created a similar board for my classroom. The kids loved the activity, but my board was not so colorful. This one is well constructed, and my grandson will love it! He enjoys latching his carseat, his father's briefcase, and his high chair belt, so the timing of this board is perfect. I am very impressed by the level of quality of the Melissa and Doug latches board, and wouldn't hesitate to purchase other items by this manufacturer.

The latches board look great. I bought it for a gift and am very happy with the quality of the board and latches. I know my nephew is only to love opening and closing all the doors - some of the latches will be a challenge for a while which is great and I think he will get many year of fun out of it.

Both toys are beautifully made and look very sturdy to withstand rambunctious play. They are intelligently designed and I am very excited about giving the Basic Skills board to my granddaughter this coming weekend. I am saving the Latches Board for Christmas.
I had finished this review box and was finishing the review scoring the Fat Brain Toy list at the bottom and had to come back up here and say that under the heading "encourages family participation" I can see Rowan's four year old sister wanting to commandeer these toys from her one and half year old sister. :-)

Great product - well designed and manufactured. I got it for my 11-month old because she showed so much interest in the latches holding curtain rods for the windows by my front door. She likes the latches board now and I know it will be even more intriguing to her when she is a little older.
