Pound-a-Peg

My two-year-old figured out the flipping trick on day one and now does it over and over without getting bored. The four pairs of pegs make color matching easy to teach, and the wood has held up fine even with her banging away.

My toddler loves sorting the four matching peg pairs before hammering them down. The wooden hammer is chunky enough for small hands, and everything feels solid—she goes back to it every single day.

The flip-and-repeat design is genius—my son pounds all eight pegs down and then we turn it over for another round, which keeps him focused way longer than I expected. The color-matching pairs add a nice learning layer too, and the hammer feels solid and safe for little hands.
