Little Tikes 2-in-1 Activity Tunnel - with Ball Drop, Windows, Silly Sounds, and Music - Encourages Active Play, Promotes Development - Easy Storage - Incl. 5 Plastic Balls - for Kids Ages 1-3 Years

This comes well packaged In an outer cardboard box. The item is true to the standard of little tikes items we have owned in the past with the build quality robust and brightly coloured. This offers a variety of ways of play and would suit a child up to 2.5 i would say. It’s easy to build but you have instructions and can always refer to the picture for visual representation of what it should be looking like. Would make a nice gift idea.

Other reviews say it falls apart. Mine did to start with, but as it’s official little tikes, I knew there must be something not right because little tikes is normally sturdy. The 2 bottom parts that fix into the base you have to push in REALLY hard. They do then click and lock into place which makes it all a lot more sturdy. I give it a good pull around in the video and it stays together. Babies love to put balls in holes and crawl through tunnels so this is sure to be a hit. Just make sure the bottom is pushed in until it clicks and doesn’t come back out!

My niece tried it out and while she enjoyed playing with it, it was just too small for her as she kept knocking bits off as she would play with it. I think it would suit a 1-2 year old much more though I imagine you’ll still get the odd bits knocked off here and there as it’s not the most sturdy play set. It should still provide hours of fun but I wish it was bit more bigger and sturdier. I actually found it pretty easy to put together which was surprising as I’ve seen other people have struggled.

Comes in a bright colourful cardboard box, showing you exactly what you are getting. Everything inside is bright coloured plastic. It's all in pieces, but easy enough to assemble. Each part is lettered on the plastic so you just put A next to A ect. It all just slots into place, a few bits clip together. You get a flexi blue tunnel to connect both frames together. The tunnel attaches each end via velcro tabs, you need to make sure the tunnel is the right way round for the tabs to aline to the frame, as we found out trying to put it together. It requires 3aaa batteries which aren't included. It had 3 buttons on the top that can be pressed for sound. You get 5 coloured balls included which can be dropped down the 2 pillars. The balls run smoothly down, not getting stuck anywhere. Theres also 2 points, where when the ball hits it, it makes a sound. It's easy enough for little ones to crawl through the tunnel. Our 1 year old isn't the most agile going through, so we needed to keep doing up some of the velcro tabs. He really likes putting the balls down the shoot and getting then when they come out the bottom. He does try to pull himself using the frame, which isn't the most sturdy, so he either pulls it over or he ends up on top of it. It says for ages 1-3, but would say it's abit basic for the top age range. It's fun for them putting the balls down the shoot, we just need it to be abit sturdier.

Well what can I say it was a bit fiddly to set up but not to bad the only problem we found was that the towers were easily dissemble when the kids pulled them a little bit as they don't interlock and the tunnel kept coming off as the velcro strips that were used are tiny and barely any stick strength apart from that the kids like setting off the sounds as it is very touch sensitive realy needs to be a bit tougher and this would have been brilliant

This is an indoor and outdoor crossover toy that brings together a few areas of imagination play along with some interactive play from the ball tower element. Hey I have to say that the first thing I thought when I saw it a set up which was very easy was that the tunnel itself could’ve been a little longer as the way it folds up it wouldn’t really take up any more space but it just seems a little too short I suppose this will be a positive if you had extremely limited space but as this is the kind of toy that you would normally get out specifically to be played with I would imagine that a larger size would be better. Obviously as this is made by little takes the quality of the plastic moulding and steadiness when construct it is easy to see and there is certainly no safety concerns whatsoever.

If you take the time to put this up and firmly push the pieces together, then it’ll save you having to continually do emergency repairs as toddlers play away. This is pretty well made and can take a moderate amount of rough play with the exception of the Velcro that holds the tunnel to the rest of the toy, the Velcro really is poor quality and could / should have been of a much better quality as the tunnel does come away very easily. My wife’s granddaughter took to this toy very well, she loved crawling through the tunnel but seemed most taken by the ball drop - the balls come out from various places but putting them in one place triggers off sounds which held her interest. On the face of things this toy does take up a fair amount of space, however pushing the ends together to collapse the tunnel does make it smaller for when you store it away (please see the 3rd pic).

This is a toy you will need a permanent space for as best set up and left in situ-a crawling tunnel and ball slide are the main features but its also a good hiding den for toddlers too!

This is great product highly recommend

My baby loved crawling through the tunnel and throwing the balls around. Now he understand he needs to put them through the holes and it entertains him for a good minute. He does mess with the Velcro and times and I need to re adjust it but love that it’s easily foldable to put it away.

My kids played with it but the little tunnel thing kinda get off sometimes and is a bit flimsy

Piaciuto molto ai bimbi

My son who is 9 mon loves it. It’s not the sturdiest. Especially since he’s beginning to walk and grabs on to everything. This will have him tip over but I think it’s cute and fun. He enjoys it and crawls through often.
