Melissa & Doug Classic Wooden Figure Eight Train Set Review
I bought this for my son;s 2nd birthday. He loves it and gets it out all the time. I think there's enough pieces to have a bit of variety (certainly over the models that are just loops), but it also didn't take a big investment in case he wasn't interested. It's also somewhat educational; itgives kids a chance to practice motor skills as they interlock the tracks and it lets them develop imagination and problem-solving skills as they try to come up with new configurations.

I am an early childhood educator in an early intervention program (provides services for infants and toddlers with special needs and their families). Tracing a "figure 8" has been shown (through Brain Gym) to be an organizing activity. What better fun than tracing it with a train on a train track! I love Melissa & Doug products. The families I work with ask about my toys all the time and I always recommend M & D.
perfect starter train for 2 year old - S. Houser -
My 2 year old loves this train. He figured out how to assemble the tracks in a short time and now reassembles them in different patterns. Simple and cute, perfect for a starter. However I think it's made in China :(
Awesome First Train - H. Randolph - Georgia
My son received this train when he was two and a half. He LOVES it and plays with it every day! It is a great first train for a child. I highly recommend it. We have had it for seven months and have not had any trouble with the tracks linking together or the construction of the tracks.
