Parents Review PlanToys Products
Real reviews by parents, for parents
We Asked 3 Parents to Review Some of Our Newest 2021 Products, Here's What They Had to Say
We've been so eager to release our new Orchard Collection to the public that we could barely stand the wait as we anticipated some of our most recent Brand Representatives receiving their items! If you aren't familiar with the Orchard Collection we're referencing, here's the inside scoop...
The Orchard Collection is inspired by the fruits of the orchard — merging a variety of summery colors to excite children and encourage them in their pursuit of sustainable living. Rich blues, greens, yellows, and reds are soft and vibrant at the same time; and new items including a Fire Fighter Set, Tie Up Shoe, Rubber Road & Rail System, dollhouse furniture, and wooden alphabet tiles are designed to stimulate nearly every area of development. It's a modern collection like you've never seen before from PlanToys!
In a search for honest feedback regarding some of these new products, we solicited opinions from a few of our Winter Brand Representatives. Here's what they had to say about the following items:
Caitlin Wood
Products: Road System and Castle Blocks
What are your initial thoughts surrounding the products?
"We love them! The only thing that my kiddos have had trouble with is the Castle Blocks. We have regular unit blocks and they love to build with those. The Castle Blocks are slightly smaller than the unit blocks, so it took some adjusting to build with them together and make bigger creations. However, we love the quality of the products and I know these toys will last!"
How do you plan to use the products in your child's learning environment?
"I love that both products allow many opportunities for open-ended play and that [my kids'] imaginations are the limit!"
If you could tell your followers one thing about each product you received, what would you say?
"Castle Blocks: this set is perfect by itself or in addition to any blocks you already have, and your kiddos will love the different pieces that can come together as a castle!
"Road System: this set is perfect for the kiddo who loves to build and rebuild things as well as the kiddo who loves to build cities with their pretend play scenarios — so many possibilities!"
Abby Eller
Products: Stacking Rocket, Sorting Bus, and PlanWorld Cars Set
What are your initial thoughts surrounding the products?
"I’m always impressed by the quality of PlanToys, especially considering how affordable they are. I love that all the toys we got have more than one use and more than one thing my 2-year-old can learn while playing with them. The set of cars we received are more than just cars, they are colors we can learn; and because they come in a set, we can also work on counting them. The stacking rocket works on many things too such as counting, stacking, color recognition, shape recognition, sorting and problem-solving. And the sorting bus has many different learning opportunities as well."
How do you plan to use the products in your child's learning environment?
"We plan on keeping them in our toy rotation; and when they are not being played with, they are so beautiful we will use them as decorations. We are currently using the stacking rocket and sorting bus to focus on shape sorting, but they have many other functions and learning opportunities. Both of them can be used for color recognition, problem-solving, imaginative play, language development, and more. The set of cars we got will primarily be used for imaginative play with our sensory table."
If you could tell your followers one thing about each product you received, what would you say?
"Everything we received went above my expectations for quality when you consider how affordable everything is! The stacking rocket surprised me by how many different uses and functions it had. I adore the little bus driver that is a fun touch included with the sorting bus. I love the detail in the PlanWorld™ cars and that every car included is a different type of vehicle.
Lauren Snowden
What are your initial thoughts surrounding the products?
"I love the aesthetics!"
How do you plan to use the products in your child's learning environment?
"The furniture will be great for pretend play and working on social and emotional skill development through interactive play."
If you could tell your followers one thing about each product you received, what would you say?
"We are really enjoying the furniture. My daughter has been having so much fun with them. I really appreciate the sustainable packaging and quality, too!"
