Sitting in a high chair is so much more fun for little ones when they can play with this eye-catching bead maze. The colorful toy features 18 multi-shaped beads and three plastic rings that spin and slide along soft-coated wire pathways that are anchored by a strong suction cup base. The First Bead Maze toy has been designed to encourage development of multiple critical skills in children 12 months and above. They can practice sensory skills, fine motor skills, and hand-eye coordination while they enjoy independent play. Parents will appreciate the sturdy construction and solid wood blocks that display quality craftsmanship for extended safe use. This classic developmental toy makes a great educational gift for babies and toddlers ages one and older, for hands-on, screen-free play. For more than 30 years, Melissa & Doug has created beautifully designed imagination- and creativity-sparking products that NBC News called “the gold standard in early childhood play.”

Customers say
Customers find this bead maze toy to be well-built and strong enough to withstand a 9-month-old’s beating, with outstanding suction cups that work great on tables. The toy keeps little ones entertained for long periods and is particularly suitable for children aged 1-3, with one customer noting it’s perfect for a 10-month-old. The size receives mixed feedback – while some find it appropriately sized for a first bead maze, others say it’s smaller than expected. Durability also gets mixed reviews, with some reporting it’s going strong after 3.5 years while others note paint chipping issues.
