Purchased for a 7 year-old granddaughter the play post office was a big hit and stimulates the child to make observations about how post is collected/distributed and use maths to calculate charges to their 'customer's'. Obviously, depending on the age of the child, the paper tickets, forms, magazines etc would not be very durable but do provide for a more realistic game. I was impressed by how much detail had gone into making up the set.

I have to disagree with the other review. Our daughter (and her cousin) were both given one of these for Christmas and they were probably the most popular toy of the day. I do agree that the items are small and paper can tear so this is probably more suitable for someone aged about 3-4+. There's lots to do: they can run the shop, fill in forms, weigh things and deliver letters to people in the post box. There are working scales, coins in a drawer and a pretend stamp. (Top Tip: we scanned in the forms and magazines so we could print more if they go missing. Top Tip 2 - real 1p stamps add cheap authenticity!).

I bought this for my 4 year old. Not only does she love it, but so does my 8 year old and my 10 year old. They all play with it nicely, together, and I don't think I can say that about any other toy I've ever bought.

This is a fabulous toy. the children in my junior church group have loved playing with it. One recommendation I would make to anyone buying it would be to laminate the money, and mini forms etc so the children can use felt pen on them then they can be wiped clean to use again. There is so much that comes with this set and is great value for money.

We bought this for our daughter's third birthday and are really pleased with it. Although it's plastic, it's very sturdy and durable. There's lots of bits to it: greeting cards, newspapers, magazines, notepaper, pencil, envelopes, driving licence and other forms, stamps, airmail and photo stickers... I thought this was excellent value.
I do agree that the items are perhaps a little on the small side, but don't feel it's worth losing a star for! It'd be easy to make up your own bits and pieces out of magazine pictures. Think I might photocopy the forms as others suggest, before they are used.
Both our daughter and 5-year-old son enjoy playing with this post office.

Good quality product. Very authentic. Also good for childminders keen to promote parts of the unique child development. The only thing I would mention - it has been mentioned before - the part of the scales is affixed underneath the main part of the toy when you first unpack it. No mention in the instructions and can be a head scratcher. Apart from that a great buy.

6 year old enjoyed playing with this for some time very soon after she received it. To begin with we thought that scale pan was missing but it was fixed under base. A clear indication of this would have avoided the problem. Luckily someone spotted it as we were going to complain it was missing! A fun product which should provide many hours of real playing which is much better than being glued to an LCD screen!
