Elite Montessori Object Permanence Box with Tray and Ball

8 months old baby likes it. The ball is save; the whole thing is light but strong and good quality.

My baby loves this toy and has totally figured out the cause and effect of placing the ball in the top. Love that its a brain stimulating toy, and that she likes playing with it.

I think this is one of the more interesting toys my daughter has. It doesnt light up or make crazy sounds. But it does have a very satisfying plop when the ball hits and comes out. Well made. Traditional toy. Simple and elegant. Pros: Stimulating Keep her attention longer than I expected. Cons: She is often just more interested in eating the ball. The toy is a little too big for a baby to do both motions from the sitting position. Sharp corners on the wood. Kind of expensive.

Great quality. Sustains attention

I was afraid that it would have a plastic ball but it is wood. Great quality. My 6 month old loves it.

Wonderfully made ! Good quality sturdy and thick.

Great Montessori toy! It is very well made and not cheap. A great price too

This is a great Montessori Object Permanence Box. The one we received does not have sharp edges, and is very sturdy. It is made from a ply wood, which is appropriate given the price. I dont mind that it is plywood, most furniture these days isnt even made out of something as nice as ply. I really like that there is a sort of internal ramp and that there are pieces on the inside that guide the ball to the opening. The ball always comes out. My only complaint is that I prefer toys made from natural materials as much as possible, which is one of the main reasons I chose this product. Why then skimp and provide a plastic whiffle ball? I have tossed the ball that comes with this and replaced it with a wooden sphere instead.

I saw some complaints about the ball and was worried, but I got a wooden ball and Im happy with it. My son is 9 months and and mostly only wants to bang on it, but Im hoping he will become more interested in time.

Not sure what it is about this toy but my 14 month old loves it. I bought extra wiggle golf balls (is that what theyre called?) because the one that came with it gets lost all the time. I would definitely recommend this. She likes it much more than the plastic flashy toys and so do I.
