My two year old boy loves this puzzle. He first started out loving puzzles, so I tried this puzzle to see if he would like to fish them out and he enjoyed it, and it helps with hand eye coordination (Aug 04, 2021)

The magnet is a bit frustrating for my guy. It's not very strong and has to be connected and the right angle to work. Feb 21, 2020

My daughter loves fishing for it. It hooks up easily to the magnet pole. The stickers and the edges chip off when she pics on it. Wish it was a bit more durable. Jan 08, 2020

Not my son’s favorite, but maybe when he gets a little older. My only concern is the magnet at the end of the fishing pole seems to be a choking hazard. Aug 23, 2019
