 Nice in theory, key design mistakes Dec 28, 2009
We received this as a present for our 2 year old twins (boy & girl). Our son loves balls and plays with an older version of the Fisher Price Roll-a-Rounds Swirlin Surprise Gumballs (a better choice than this toy) for hours, but this looks like a dud. Issues with this toy include:
(1) 9-24 month olds (which this toy is rated for) don't stack up 5 objects--they knock them down. The only way this toy stays assembled as shown is if someone older holds it or constantly restacks it.
(2) The base has two holes for the balls to exit, so even if you position your child in front of one hole, 50% of the time the ball will roll out across the floor on the opposite side, leading to a game of chase the ball and forget the Flap and Stack
(3) Not only do the wings not move much, but a young child who benefits from this toy will have to focus his or her attention on the top to put the ball in. Kids this age are small and close to the toy--they won't change their focus from the top fast enough to even see the wings move. I also agree with the other reviewer about the wings barely moving.
(4) The base makes the music sounds even if the other pieces are missing. My son quickly figured out he could knock over the wing pieces and drop the balls directly into the base to make the music sound more easily
On the bright side, the balls are good and make a rattling noise as they roll.

 Fun for hours Feb 12, 2009
I bought this item for my friends daughter and she loves it. It entertains her for hours, she loves hearing the rewarding sound when the ball drops through. She takes it apart and puts it back together and then dumps the balls back through. I highly recommend for any kid!

 Cute, but I'll pass Nov 13, 2008
I bought this for my kids ages 2.5 and 9 mos. They love playing with colorfull toys and especially toys that do more than one thing. This was a disappointment. Although this product wasn't expensive, it still wasn't worth the money. The little "arms" that are supposed to flap barely move.
