The media could not be loaded. This is a really pretty wooden tree with colorful leaves. There were a few leaves that were stuck together from the painting process, but they were easy enough to separate with a little tapping and pull. Some of them that weren't stuck together had minor paint flaws. But none of that detracted from the overall appeal of this. It would be challenging for the very young to enjoy trying to put this together on their own as you do need to push them into place to ensure they stay. But playing with the pieces as a color sorting activity or to make abstract art/ designs on the table is very fun. The leaves are stackable. And the colors are vibrant. They are great for counting and color identification. Once together, it does look nice too, and it comes apart easily to store.

My friends 1.5 YO boy was the first test subject on this, and he had a lot of fun with it! I do wish it came in a better bag than a cheap plastic bag, but I can find something else. Other than that, it offers a lot of creative options for building; he chose to build one branch super super long and it looked funny. Mission accomplished.

It is much smaller than how it appears in the photo. It is cheaply made and couldnt put it together properly. Do not buy!

My students have so much fun playing with this tree, my only complaint is the number of pieces and how easily it falls apart. Maybe it was just the tree I got but all the leaves and trunk pieces interlock but not very tightly. I understand it needs to be flexible enough for small children to take it apart and put it together on their own, but the piece is could have fit a little bit better. It's no fun dealing with a 3-year-old who cries when they accidentally bump the tree and the whole thing falls apart.

We absolutely love the concept and therefore are very sad about how flimsy and poor the craftsmanship is. The branches have holes in them which are poorly finished. They are also too large for the connection parts between the pieces. Only the leaves stay snugly. Note that some of the leaves came in blobs, i.e. stuck to one another, most likely because the paint wasn't dry enough. Please just improve the quality of this toy and we'd be happy to purchase it then.
