My son got this for his 2nd birthday. He loved playing with the car. The racetrack itself is somewhat pointless as it does the same sequence of actions & noises every time around and gets old after just a few laps. However, he enjoyed playing with the car a great deal. Unfortunately, it broke after only about three days. One of the very tiny plastic gears inside lost half of it's teeth, so the toy would only move about an inch before needing to be pushed. We returned the toy and got a replacement only to have the replacement break in a completely different manner after only a few minutes of play. I haven't taken this one apart yet to see exactly what broke, but I can tell it's something electrical this time. We'll return this one for a refund. Most of the other "Little People" stuff is great, but I'd pass on this one.....
