Quality seems good to me at opening. Also added a photo of what the objects are for each letter. The objects are small so definitely not for kids that they could be a choking hazard for.
Reviewed in the United States on April 24, 2023
Quality seems good to me at opening. Also added a photo of what the objects are for each letter. The objects are small so definitely not for kids that they could be a choking hazard for.
Pros: Very cute. Well made. Acorns are easy to open and close. The box will make it easy for storage as long as I don’t let my toddler get rough with it as kids often do. The object pieces are very cute for the most part, I like their texture and it arrived quickly and in good condition as expected, with nothing missing.
Cons: 1.The purple letters are almost invisible on the brown plastic. Like seriously hard to see. I have 3 windows in my living room and use the natural light during the day with no issues. It’s not the brightest lighting but I never struggle to see, as I did with those purple letters. The purple is so similar to the brown which sounds odd but they just blend into each other. Unless the acorns are tilted up toward the light. If sitting vertically on their base, I found it hard to find the purple letters on the acorns. I don’t recall seeing any mention of this issue in the reviews I read prior to purchase but it’s a legit/annoying issue and something the manufacturer should improve at some point. 2. I wish the W and the M weren’t both the same color. One of the games brilliant features is the acorn tops/colors are clues to que little ones to help narrow down the match possibilities with subject pieces. Example: The orange Queen piece is a little ambiguous and could also be a King—however, the K acorn has a purple top, meaning it corresponds with a purple figurine, while the Q is orange! So it’s obviously a Queen. Brilliant!) So... the letters W and M are confusing to my toddler. (As are N and Z. An easy mistake in both cases as they are so similar in shape, it’s simply a matter of the direction they’re in.) So when trying to find the acorn that corresponds to the GREEN Whale, seeing both a green M and a green W acorn is a little confusing when finding a home for the whale. Makes sense, right? If we had a red M and a Green W there’d be less room for confusion (and it’s another opportunity for her to see that though they’re sort of similar, M and W are two distinctly different letters and not interchangeable as they appear in this game.) 3. (This is less of an issue and more a wish list:) I agree with other reviewers, there are a couple odd choices in some of the object pieces as stated in previous reviews. Example: Koala bear for K. I agree “Kite” would be easier to distinguish as Koalas aren’t that commonly seen and this solid colored, tiny figurine, sorta looks like a mouse. Speaking of mouse...I’d suggest that over the current mitten for the letter M. The sail boat for the letter B? Eh...I guess? I’d personally go with a little Bear. Maybe a lion for L instead of a leaf which I initially stared at dumbfounded thinking it was a spade (as in playing cards, lol), hubby also couldn’t guess it until I told him. In all fairness when you get the unopened kit, the pieces are grouped together in plastic bags, not with their corresponding acorns so it’s a guessing game that very first time you organize it.) There are a few others that are hard to figure out or wouldn’t be your first association but over-all it’s functional and is collectively very cute. Final note: The smell people commented on. Yes it’s there. It’s like a subtle, slightly skunky smell, which I dont think is that bad. Cat pee is much worse which someone mentioned. I don’t get that from this particular package. And it wasn’t so offensively strong that we couldn’t enjoy the game. In fact my husband didn’t even notice at all. I was probably aware bc I specifically sniffed for it after reading reviewers’ warnings.
Anyway...hope this helps the manufacturer for potential improvements someday. It really is very cute and I want to give it 5 stars but it’s not quite there...
This is called "Alphabet Acorns." They have little toys that go in to the acorns, that associate with each letter. The toys also are associated with the colors of the top of the acorns, so they learn a few colors as well. There is a capital letter on the outside of the acorn, and a lower case letter on the bottom of the lid. This way- it's a fun learning game for the younger kids, and a fun review games for older kids. They stack to make pyramids, which my kids are loving.
My kids have been loving this game. They do have small parts- the toys- which work for my kids, but can get lost easily. The lids aren't the best quality, as some of them are hard to put on. In all: great learning game! It's been fun for my kids, and they are loving having to find the match of the acorn to the toy it's associated with! This one will probably be out quite a bit, to help my youngest recognize letters, and my next one to review her letters!

There is a train - but train is a “ch” sound, a telescope, tap or turtle would have been good, the “x” was a xylophone which is a tricky one as we teach the sound “x” at the end of the word “b-o-x” it’s nothing a problem as you can put in your own objects into the acorns if you wanted too. I love that they have the capital letter on the front and the small letter under the hat of the acorn. Great value for money!
