Toy Review: VTech Go! Go! Smart Animals Playset

Will races Ryan the Rhino on the VTech Go! Go! Smart Animals Playset.
Will had the chance to check out the VTech Go! Go! Smart Animals Playset for mom.me to see how it would hold up to a 2-year-old's hands and imagination.
If you haven't seen the playset, it has kids building a colorful, winding track on which they can place different battery-powered plastic animals (in our case, Ryan the Rhino). The animals slide down hills or ride up a kid-powered elevator while lighting up and talking when they slide over SmartPoint locations on the track.
In addition to keeping my toddler entertained for longer than you can say "swipe and click" -- yes, he loves his screen time! -- the Go! Go! Smart Animals Playset also had him spending quality time with CC, who's 8 but wanted to join in the fun, too — which was basically like parenting gold.

Features I Love
Designed for kids ages 1-5, the Go! Go! Smart Animals Playset was just the right balance of fun and challenge for my 2-year-old. While the set comes with many parts in several plastic bags (which can often be a nightmare for parents and kids), the pieces themselves were large enough to safely fit in toddler hands, and the puzzle-like construction was easy for him to master.
