Our Thoughts: We got this play set a few weeks ago for our review. My husband spent about 10 minutes assembling it and setting it up for the kids. Once he was done…they totally took over! Gia is 4 1/2 years old and Colton is 6 1/2 years old…both of them absolutely loved this set!
Batteries are required and are included to get you started. I recommend picking up a second set of batteries because your kids will play with this a lot! Our two had a blast rolling the boulders down the water trail, making the helicopter fly around…putting the dinosaurs into the cage and having the jeep haul them around and the realistic sounds that come out of this play set are just that…very realistic! Having those sounds really enhanced this set and took it up to an entirely different creative play level.

Overall…we are really impressed! It is extremely well-made and comes with over 25 pieces. Even a few weeks later the two kids are playing with it a lot and it’s not sitting around collecting dust. They love it and it would make a great gift for any little boy this holiday season.

Great Play set!!! Been looking around to buy my nephew a really cool toy that he will love. Its sooo hard to find something when kids all they want to do is play on the computer or the cell. Thanks for the great review, will be stoping by the toy store soon 😀
I am sure that both boys and girls will love playing with this set. I know that I would enjoy it too. I love all the separate features and the realistic noises.
My goodness, this thing is HUGE! Which means, of course, that the kids will absolutely love it. Like Sherry before me, I as well sometimes pick toys based on whether I’d want to play with them, so I am sure this would be a winner. Thanks for the reco.
My big sis and I had a jungle game and it was so cool and interactive, so I think girls would love this as much as boys. I made the science project volcano like everyone else so love that feature too. Great review and on my wishlist.
I thought this was awesome before I knew all it did!!! What an amazing toy! I have to say sometimes I do get toys based on what I want to “play” with, too, and this looks really fun. My grandkids are 5 and 7, and both of them love science and nature. This would really be educational and entertaining. I’m with you on always buying second batteries. The ones that come with the toys typically don’t last long, and you hate to run out immediately.
What a really awesome toy that my nephew and niece would love to get for Christmas. I would love to get them this because I think they would have a blast with it like your kids are. Thanks for the post.
