Summary: More fun from Melissa & Doug
Comment: If you're looking for a multi-challenging toy for a young child (1-3) this is sure to keep them happy. They will learn colors, numbers, and animals while using their hands to operate interesting latches.
Like other reviewers have stated, I found some of the latches to be stiff. The latch at 2 is especially so.
Overall, a beautiful teaching "puzzle".

Summary: Not just for aspiring burglars and escape artists!
Comment: My two year old loves this! My kiddo is dexterous like you wouldn't believe, and has a passion for opening and closing doors as well as removing covers and lids (electrical socket safety plugs, the backs of remotes, change purses, bottle tops, baby wipes) and opening clasps (wallet, watches, bracelets). If your child is the type who's always looking for new and exciting ways to raise your blood pressure with feats of exquisite motor control, this latchboard is a great way to redirect that energy and curiousity.
I remember reading some horrified parent exclaim that perhaps teaching young kids to open latches and locks is a dangerous idea, but realistically speaking - the latches featured here probably aren't used in a safety capacity anyway. (Unless you hide your dynamite behind a miniature chain locked door. And you might want to rethink that.)
The thing is also virtually indestructable. I can say this with confidence because it was "tested" by the brats next door, and those boys could destroy a padded cell. The colors and pictures are bright and appealing, too; it's remarkably well made.
My only beef is the cost of Melissa and Doug products, but since it's hand made I can understand why it's necessary. Keep up the fine work, guys.

Summary: WE LOVE THIS TOY
Comment: Even my 7 year old will sit and fiddle with all the locks for a few minutes. It's just "that" intriguing for kids. I bought it for my 2 year old and he loves it. So does my 3 year old nephew. This toy is so cool, that the kids will fight over it. So buy two!!!

Summary: 2nd Child and still like new
Comment: I bought this for my daughter when she was about 2 1/2. She enjoyed figuring out how to open all the latches and we had fun together talking about the animals, colors, and counting. She has played with the toy off and on for almost 2 years now. My son is 19 months old and discovered it in his sister's room several months ago. He dragged it out to the family room and has played with it nearly every day. He loves opening and closing the doors and trying to figure out the latches. The toy seems to be extremely durable as both kids have fought over it and dropped it and it still looks like new.

Summary: Latches Board keeps busy toddlers occupied
Comment: My Grandson is 2 & very busy. He rarely sits down,so I bought the Latches Board to see if it would interest him. The first time he played with it, he sat for 45 minutes playing with it. I was amazed at how it kept his interest & he continues to love playing with the various latches, knocking on the doors & peeking inside to see who is in there. I love it!
