My daughter asked fornthis for Christmas. She really liked the idea of building and transforming the space. It is difficult to keep together. There needs to be a way to stabilize the bottom (floor) of the ground level as it wiggles the falls without this. Also having the wheel on top makes the falling issue more prominent. Would buy more sets if some stabilizing additions were made.

We got frustrated.
I received this as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. This was pretty difficult to build, even more me as an adult trying to help my daughter build it. The sides would not stay up very well. The idea it super cute, and my daughter loved trying to make it, but we both got pretty frustrated with it. We will play with it again another day.

Love it!
My 8-year-old decided to use her own money to purchase the Wonderhood Pet Place and Corner Shops after receiving the Grand Hotel for Christmas 6 months ago. She loves them all and will spend an entire afternoon playing with Wonderhood. I love that she uses her creativity to build in different ways and meet the engineering challenges that come on the cards. Her imaginative play can stay fresh because she can always be changing her characters' settings. This is a great toy!

Fun and Imaginative, But Needs to be Sturdier
I received this product through the Stellar Product Testing Panel. This is a really creative and cleverly designed toy, full of learning opportunities about animal care. However, it was challenging for both my 4-year and 6 year olds to set up (definitely need a grownup to help balance the pieces and connect.). The boards didn't feel sturdy once connected, which made it hard to play with independently.

Pet lover dream
My little guys is 6 and an absolute animal lover! He loved playing with this Pet Place toy over and over. We loved how it helps create so much imagination and he was able to create so many different scenarios with it.
What was even better is that he was able to bring it to family night and we can all sit and play with it together as it was appealing to all. We love things that we can play with together as a family!
Thank your Stellar Panel for this opportunity of reviewing this awesome toy!

Great ga
We LOVE this game! We received the Wonderhood Pet Place from the Stellar Product Testing Panel and at first glance I didn’t think my boys would be up for playing as it looked a little girly but I was SO wrong! My boys found it on the counter and couldn’t wait to play. The boys are 8, 6 AND 3 years old and were drawn to different aspects of the game at the same time. They worked together to figure it all out and couldn't' wait to play again. I def recommend this game for families with kids!

Older is better
My kids played with this activity on several occasions. My 6 year old was easily frustrated & my 10 enjoyed the freedom to build & play. The parts were a bit confusing the first time, but were easily figured out after looking over them. I would definitely recommend this activity that I received from the Stellar Product Testing Panel.

Multiple Uses
The pet place was enjoyed by my 8 & 3 year old sons and my 6 year old daughter. The older two thought that the pieces were easy to assemble, however my oldest son thought that they came apart too easily. It can be taken apart and used many times for imaginative play. The stickers and figures make the set complete, but it would have been nice to have a couple more pet figures. The hamster wheel was a fun addition. I received the Wonderhood pet palace from the Stellar Product Testing Panel.

Frustrating
I received this as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. My kids were too old for this so I gave it to a coworker who has two girls, 4 and 5 year old. The tiles were very difficult to put together for a even the adults and would fall apart when stacked. The product is cheaply made and frustrating for kids to put together.

Pet Place Fun
My son has really enjoyed playing with toy, he created his own pet shop and has enjoyed building different layouts with the pieces. It would have been nice to have one or two more characters included as part of the set. The set has allowed him to use his imagination and create some fun games. The included leaflet provides some nice suggestions for different scenarios to help inspire.
I received this product from Stellar Product Testing in return for honest feedback.

Interesting concept but falls a bit flat
I received this toy from the Stellar Product Testing Panel. My 3 and 6 year olds were able to follow the directions provided, but the panels often came apart when connected, which was frustrating. They played independently with it for almost an hour, which I consider a success, however, they had more fun free playing than following the challenges or noting their ideas in the journal provided. More whimsical than educational and just not that interesting overall for longterm play or learning.
