Only comes with pegs and foam board. There was no bag, no thread, no colour die. Not worth the money

I first heard about this peg board set from my sister-in-law who is using it for her two-year-old son and really liked it so I ordered it for my three-year-old twins. My kids got this for Christmas and it has been one of their favorite toys so far! Here is what is included in the set: 1- 8 1/4" x 8 1/4" x 1/4" foam peg board. The description says the boards are assorted colors and we received an orange one. It has a total of 25 evenly-spaced holes where you can insert the pegs. 30 pegs in 6 different colors (5 each of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple). They are each about 2" tall and about 1 1/2" in diameter with a hole in the top so you can insert a peg. The pegs are made of a hard plastic material. 1 drawstring bag for storing and carrying around the board and pegs. It is made of a nice cloth material that would be easy to wash if it gets dirty. When we first opened the set, the holes were a bit tight but all it took was keeping the pegs in the board overnight and the holes had loosened up enough so my kids could easily put the pegs in the holes themselves. You can use this on carpet and hard, flat surfaces and it will work well. There are so many fun possibilities for this set which will help with fine motor skills! Kids can practice counting, naming colors, stacking (we've been able to stack about 10-12 pegs before the tower falls over), and grasping small objects and placing them in the holes, just to name a few. I can already tell that my kids' fine motor skills are improving even within the short amount of time we've been using this and I definitely see us using this for many years to come. This peg board set is a wonderful idea for anyone whose child needs some more work with fine motor skills or just to use as a fun, educational toy. Even I enjoy using it with my kids so it would probably be enjoyable for people of all ages. I feel it is priced fairly reasonably and I really like the great quality that we received with this set. My kids and I are very happy with this toy and I would highly recommend it to anyone with young children!

This educational toy came just as described. The pegs were all there, plus one extra yellow. The foam board was in perfect condition and, despite being foam, was very sturdy feeling. There are 6 colors of pegs: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple, and their are 5 of each color. The board has 25 holes in a 5x5 pattern, so you cannot technically have all the pegs in the holes at the same time. I've noticed this actually forces my daughter to become more creative and deliberate in her placing of the pegs in order to stack them, or choose carefully which ones would be left out. After allowing it to sit overnight with the pegs in the board, it was easy for my two kids to play with. My 3yo enjoyed poking the pegs out from behind, and she really liked the challenge of the pattern cards, which were her first experience with patterns. My 15mo daughter was able to play with it as well. She was able to both put the pegs in the board, and stack them. I was impressed with the pegs, and ink usually not impressed with plastic toys (we choose natural materials usually). They stacked together with just enough pressure that they don't fall apart easily, but even my 15mo old could pull them apart without them flying. The email with the patterns came before my order even arrived, and the pattern printables came out nicely when printed on cardstock. Lastly, the board and the pegs fit snugly in their accompanying bag, not too much though. If you push the board to the bottom of the bag, you can still close the drawstring. It is difficult removing it, but I make sure I do it for my girls to avoid the frustration of pegs flying everywhere. I'm very pleased with this toy and I think it makes a great addition to our Montessori shelves, and our quiet bag for church/restaurants/car rides. Also, as noted in my title, make sure you don't let your child see it when it first arrives. The disappointment will be huge when they realize it has to sit overnight before they can play with it. And if you are having trouble at all with the pegs not fitting in the board, set it out in the sun until it's warm and then firmly put all the pegs into it. Allow it to sit and cool overnight, and it should be perfect.

I like the concept of this product a lot. My educational background is in child development and psychology of children and youth. This product is definitely good for teaching colors, patterns, counting, coordination and many other skills. I do wish it came with more pegs though (I know more can be purchased, but you can only buy a lot of them for about the same price as a new full set of the peg board costs). The materials are kind of on the cheaper side (foam kind of broke a little bit around where I had to force the pegs in the first time etc). But thats to be expected for the price. I have to say that customer service was excellent though. I have received several emails since purchasing this item to ask if I was satisfied with the item. I like that they follow up to make sure everything is okay. Its good for the price for sure. I think my daughter is a bit beyond this type of item, but its still a good item to have on the go for doctors visits etc and for professional use. It is difficult to "shape" the board and must be done by an adult obviously. You have to really push them in. But after leaving it in overnight, its ready to go for kids to use. My toddler (2.5 year old) hasn't shown much interest in it yet, but I feel like with time, she will like using it. I might invest in more pegs. Its a good learning tool. I would use this as a professional while working with children to develop certain skills. I like that it comes with a travel bag.

Little boy started immediately playing with it filled him with so much joy had so much fun. Great product 10/10
