Note the SMALL!, 4 Nov. 2013

When this arrived in the post I couldn't wok out what it could be. A bracelet? A box of matches? A solitary marble? Far too small to be that expensive rainbow toy I ordered. But I didn't order anything else...Oh.It's that expensive rainbow toy I ordered.Or in the words of my 4 year old, as he turned it round and round in his hands with a perplexed look on his face, "Hmm... Well. Mmmm. So... do you think it got shrunk in the post?"It needs, like, a banana or something in the pic for reference.Jus' so you know, imagine this is a banana (it's a "fun-size" banana, all I have in at the mo): [And this is the expensive rainbow toy I ordered: nThen this would be the item description pic, with banana for reference: [nSo yeah. Smaller than a fun-size banana.(Yes, yes - I should have read the description - and previous reviews! - more closely. I have learnt my lesson.)

rainbow fun!, 14 Nov. 2010

This product looks gorgeous if a little small - I think the next size up would have been even better.Upright you can build a tower, rainbow, bridges and loch ness monster. On their side you can build a slivery snake. I think you can have lots of creative fun with this toy and it looks fab on a shelf in the front room or a child's bedroom.Says it is for 3 years upwards. I thought it seemed expensive but it is very eco friendly and beautiful to look at. Also much cheaper here than in trendy kids boutiques.

Name says it all really--very small!, 21 Oct. 2010

I should have double-checked the dimensions, really. I purchased this item, having seen one in the myriad catalogue. Unfortunately the illustration in the catalogue made it look much bigger than it is, so I was a bit disappointed when it arrived. Although it's a pretty stacking toy, I didn't feel it was great value for money.
