We have this toy in a "boy" version. The main problem: it has a lot of small pieces (arms, legs) with VERY sharp corners. The manufacturer made no effort at all to round corners. I have never seen a puzzle with such sharp, dangerous elements. Some of them are like long thin wooden knives. I would not want to live an active child with this thing alone. Notice that the "recommended age" is 4. Perhaps a 4 y/o would have no problem with dangerous pieces, but s/he would also have no interest in such a simple toy. The realistic age of a kid's interest is 2.5 to 3.5 y/o. For that age, the toy is simply dangerous. Also, "educational" part is silly. A kid old enough to understand what it means to have muscles on top of organs will have no interest in playing this toy. The "educational" value of seeing a skeleton and then lungs is mostly lost on a 2.5 y/o.

This is a great tool, and my children really seem to enjoy this puzzle (they are 3.5 and 2 years old). They can put the different layers of the puzzle by themselves, after I showed them a few times. We've had it for over a month now, and they still play with it several times a day.

We bought this for our little girl and she LOVES it. When we opened the puzzle, I absolutely thought it would be too difficult for her. But at 29 months, she mastered it within a day. And she loves it and asks to play with it often! It was a terrific purchase!!

My 3 yr old daughter loves this puzzle. She thought it was pretty difficult at first, which layer went first, but now she loves it. She will even lay out all the layers on the floor and talk about the circulatory system, the bones and so on. Great wooden puzzle. I want to also get the other version, the boy.

This is our 30 months old daughter's favorit puzzle. She began making only the top level, now she can make all four levels alone. After some months some of the colour is disolving, its not a big problem, just some spots.
