Love Fat Brain Toys! Coincidentally my 12.5 month old son had just received the full size version of this toy as a present and loved it, which prompted me to buy this version for our cross-country flight. It’s a great toy, he can hold it and spin at the same time. My only hesitation for using it on the plane again is he can throw it/ hit someone with it. So great toy for home or maybe road trip, but not the best for close quarters and strangers 😂

A toy for all ages! We are all a bit mesmerized by this toy. For some reason I thought there were suction cups at each end and every. single. time I spin it for my baby I wonder “where are the suction cups?”! This toy is larger than I imagined, and needs an older child or parent to set it up and spin for my 8-month-old (seriously, it spins down and then he looks at you like “entertain me! Do it again!”) but he also enjoys putting it in his mouth (on his own). It’s a good one tonhave in the arsenal when out and about (but, seriously, at a restaurant I do wish it had suction cups!)

Fat Brain toys are AWESOME. The colors, durability, hours of entertainment for your child. The spinning captivates, the ability to chew, even the little grooves fascinate little ones. The suction is allows for placement in a tib, on the wall, or on the floor.

I bought this for my 1.5 year old son who has some developmental issues. He is absolutely terrified of going to appointments, and he has to go to quite a lot of them. I purchased this with the hope he could use it as a sort of “baby fidget spinner” type of thing. I really wanted to buy the large spinner with the big gears on it, but because it’s a bit out of my price range, I thought I’d try this first. I think it’s a great toy. It is very well made...but my son barely glances at it. Which isn’t the toy’s fault. I do think maybe he’d like the larger one, but we will just have to wait until we can afford it. The mini spinner is lightweight, and the “gears” (I’m not sure what else to call them) spin very easily up and down either by themselves if you hold it vertically, or with a simple flick of your finger if you hold it horizontally. I would think for most kids, especially in the 6-18 month range, it would be highly entertaining. Especially on outings or doctor appointments.

We were introduced this toy through an acquaintance. My 10 month old loved it so I purchased one for him. He plays with it daily and has a blast doing so. We take turns with it seeing how the different gears move and I try to get him to hold one or two back while the other goes. He really enjoys the colors and movements this toy makes and I’m excited to see what other toys he likes from Fat Brain.

My 7 month old is amazed by this

This is a perfect beginner table toy for an infant! Currently using it with my 6 month old and will reintroduce it later in the toddler years. Right now he is fascinated with the spinning and the action of turning it over and over again. The colors are attractive and the structure of the toy is solid and clearly well thought out. Easy to clean. I don't generally purchase a lot of plastic materials but I'm very pleased with the design and quality of this one!

I purchased this toy for my 12-month-old daughter, for Christmas. I am trying to stear away from v-tech and those types of toys and lean more towards the Montessori-type toys. I want my daughter to be a free thinker instead of having a toy doing it for her. This toy keeps my daughter occupied and interested. This is a toy I typically use in the car or an “Incase” toy in the diaper bag. I have set this toy up in her toy area and she always plays with it. It’s a great anytime toy. I am very glad to have found this company and will be purchasing more toys in the future.
