    I love the idea of this busy board to teach kids how to open latches and basic locks and work on their finger dexterity. You can also place photos behind the doors to make it more interesting for the toddler. This would even be a good toy for a parrot. The main issue I had was that it arrived damaged. The image was ripped off and this seems to have happened during production. They covered it up with a piece of paper (the paper label was not glued on in anyway; it was just placed on top of the damaged area) and sealed the product in plastic wrap. The plastic wrap was also not damaged so I know this didn’t somehow occur during shipping.
