The Colorforms easily attach to any glossy surface, or to one another, by applying slight pressure across the surface of each piece. A 2002 Parents' Choice Classic Award Winner.

 Children's Enjoyment September 17, 2008
Bought this as a gift for grandson. It's educational and yet enjoyable. My children enjoyed this and I know my grandson will.
 Disappointed! July 3, 2008

I am a little disappointed with this toy, which I bought for my 3 year old. She loves playing with the shapes. However, the pieces did not stick well to the black cardboard at all. I saw this in another review so perhaps I will call the manufacturer. The spiral bound book also fell apart literally on the first use. I am surprised it was not better constructed.
 Limitless creative value April 14, 2008
I was there when the first edition was released. It was magical then and when I opened the very attractive box of my new version, it was magic all over again. No guidelines, two background boards, bright basic primary colored shapes; it's tantamount to having a nice building block set in your lap. Use on mirrors, windows, and other smooth glass-like surfaces to unleash new energies. It would be even more fun to have extra colorform pages from which to cut one's own shapes. I rate my Colorforms with an A+.
Great for a creative kid! March 26, 2008

The first day was fun for my 4 yr old. He does not like to clean up - ya, ya, I Know he should... so we have started to loose the smaller pieces. Now, he finds it difficult to pick the smaller pieces and always wants company when he does this. Infact, my 10 year old does get carried away with this toy. This set should have more project pictures. I bought three and will pass them on as birthday gifts.
Good, but 2 year old too young March 21, 2008

Got it for our two year old...probably not ready for it yet, so we are putting it away until her imagination and dexterity increases.
