Behind the design
“When we were testing an early prototype, one of our coworkers said it looked like a cute robot spitting out dominoes. So they drew a face on it. From then on, the domino machine had a face!”

gift for my 3yr old son from his big sister aged 6. my daughter enjoyed putting this together with help. my son loved making as long a row as possible and it was compatible with other wooden dominoes we have. filling the machine was a little fiddly for him but still possible with help. lovely wooden product. cons: cost! £36.35 posted is a lot. we had to glue the rubber bands to the wheels as each one kept slipping of from the first go and it doesnt always run straight.
