Plan Toys Miracle Pounding II

Our 18-month-old loves watching the balls pop up one after another as he hammers them down. The mallet is just the right weight for his little hands, and it's held up well to daily use. Keeps him entertained for a solid 10 minutes at a time.

I was a little worried the wooden mallet would be too heavy for my 18-month-old, but she handles it easily and loves the satisfying pop sound each ball makes when it lands.

My one-year-old loves the satisfying *thwack* of the mallet, and it’s been surprisingly great for his focus trying to hit the ball just right. The fact that a new ball pops up each time keeps him engaged much longer than I expected.
