How to keep a toddler happy and quiet for an hour...
Give him this toy, show him how to interact with it, sit back and watch the wheels turn and the lightbulb come on. Then give a bit of positive feedback when he pushes a "dimple" in the correct direction...then EUREKA! My grandson loves this toy!And I appreciate Fat Brain toys! I love the name of the company for starters...the name implies their toys will grow children's brains. And they just might be right. (Nerdy sidebar: Not that they get fat brains, but they create more synapses so there are tons more thoughts going on...connections that weren't there before)First, I like the shape of the toy. It is asymmetrical and random...already allowing children to think outside the box. Then there are the bright colors...placed strategically opposite each other as complimentary and beside each other as contrasting (for the most part). And I'm a fan of the specific color choices. It's a nice diversion from the typical primary colors that children usually learn first. With the dimple toy, depending on your kiddo's age, you can choose to teach them "pink, green, yellow, blue, and orange". Or if your child is a bit older and has already mastered those colors, you could expand their color palette by teaching them the following less common names, "fuchsia, lime green, cadmium or lemon yellow, cyan, and fluorescent orange".Moving on to other characteristics, the size is small so it fits into little hands (or nicely into adult hands if you've ADD tendencies and need a 'fidget' toy). And it's really clever (to a toddler) to discover that poking the dimples results in a dimple to be pushed on the other side. The dimples are made from silicone (I'm assuming food safe, but I'd need to go back and check...so don't quote me on that), so they are potentially safe for young toddlers still exploring with their mouths. It seems durable as well. We've only had it for a few days, but it has survived several "accidental" drops/throws.If you're on the fence deciding whether to buy this toy, I hope I've given you some of the facts to make a choice. All in all, I believe the price point matches the value of the item for it's durability, entertainments value, and teachable moments. I'm certain your child's brain will grow nicely while giving you a bit of a breather.

KEEPS MY TODDLER ENTERTAINED!!
I don’t typically leave reviews, but this toy has been a game changer! It keeps my 18-month-old very entertained. We were in the car for 10 hours, and she kept coming back to it, playing for long stretches each time. It’s labeled for 10 months and up, but I’d say it’s especially great for 12 months and older — even my 5-year-old loves it! Honestly, I’ve found myself playing with it too. The different sizes make it more engaging than your average pop-it toy. Highly recommend!

Neat Toy For Infants/Toddlers.
Update: My 1 year old niece loved the Dimpl so much, I let her take it home. She enjoys popping the dimples in and out. She does it over and over again. She really enjoys this toy. Since we gave away our original, I am now purchasing another for my son.You can buy all of the toys in the world for your babies and somehow to simplest of things seem to be the best. That’s currently the phase that my 10m old is going through, which is why I purchased this.This product was packaged nicely and arrived quickly. My son immediately came over to me and yanked this toy out of my hands upon taking it out of the package. I am assuming the bright fun colors got his attention. So far this toy has been a great teether; although we’ve only had it for a few hours. He honestly didn’t put it down since I’ve taken it out of the package. He played with it up until bed time. I’ve tried to show him how to pop the dimples but I don’t think at his age he really understands that yet. He did push on the dimples for awhile, and seemed pretty assured with that but hasn’t gotten the hang of the “popping” just yet. I’m sure in a month or two, he will master it. Even my five year old seemed to be entertained by this toy, I kept having to ask her to give it back to her brother because it’s his.This toy will be a good toy just the throw in the diaper bag to bring with us outside of the house and I’m sure it’ll keep him entertained in the car. I do wish it had a loop or something so parents could attach this to toy links or even a pacifier clip, to keep it attached to the stroller or car seat. Considering this is designed for infants/toddlers, we know they find it amusing to chuck everything! I am a little worried that over time the dimples will tear because of the material, but for right now, it seems pretty durable and well made.

Most definitely NOT for babies.
I bought this for my son because it came up in a search for autistic toys and sensory toys for babies. It is a pretty neat toy and I can see how it would appeal to those with sensory issues. However, it isn't a baby toy, as advertised. My son isn't old enough/coordinated enough to use it. This is more like a toy for a normal 4-5yr old. If it's bought for sensory issues, probably more like 5-7yrs. I'm not sure why even ranking/rating for teething is an option. This isn't textured and is thin/flat. I can't imagine how it could be used as a teething toy or for teething babies. Reality: It's a fidget device for sensory issues, for kids too young (or lacking the coordination) for a fidget cube or fidget spinner. I don't recommend this for babies. I ranked 3 stars for giftable, because if you're buying it for the right kid/age, it is. I ranked it 5 stars for easy to clean because it's a thin, flat toy, mostly made of silicone and would easily wipe off.

Gives you 20 mins of peace!
My son absolutely loves this Dimple toy! It has 5 colorful bubbles that he can press back and forth, and it’s been fantastic for keeping him entertained. I also think it’s helped him learn about cause and effect, as he enjoys seeing the bubbles pop back when he presses them. It’s simple, durable, and perfect for little hands. Highly recommend for any toddler—it’s both fun and educational!
