    One of my favorite toy sets!
    My son had a carnival/circus 2nd birthday so we got these as a decoration and to give to him as a gift after the party. They are so sweet, with a retro vintage feel, solid wood pieces and colorful, whimsical decoration. I love Janod in general - I've never had a problem with anything I've purchased from them.

    I bought this for my friends 3 year old and his 7 year old brother and my 9 year old ended up playing with it. It’s well made and good for a lot of different ages!
    Reviewed in the United States on January 2, 2013
    I bought this toy for my 4 year old for Christmas despite there being no reviews (I also bought the farmhouse for my 2 year old and just reviewed that one as well). Any European made toys that I've gotten have always been well made and this is no different. My daughter and I both love it! She saw an episode of Arthur where they went to circus camp and ever since she's talked about circuses. :-) All the little pieces store inside the big top which is a box. It's a very durable and wellmade box and the picture on it is beautiful. :-) The picture fully encompasses the whole box so my daughter can set it standing up as a "tent" in the background. :-) Each piece is wooden with the front and back having the picture. The people figures have the face and front of their body on one side and then the other side is the back of them and back of the head. The animals are the right and left sides so each side has a side view with an eye and face. So it isn't with a picture on one side and nothing on the other which I was apprehensive about when I ordered. So I'm very pleased about it. :-) Each piece is nice and thick so that it stands up by itself even on our carpet but not so thick that it becomes awkward to hold. The ladders balance the beam easily and the figurines balance easily on them as well. :-) Some of the people are made so they can ride on the horse which of course is a hit with my daughter who loves horses! As soon as she opened it she was making the tiger jump through the firey hoop and causing the monkey to cross the tightrope. The little car and circus trailer is an added bonus as well and I bet they'd fit on a wooden train track (although we don't own one yet so I can't be sure :-) ). This is a really great toy that sparks the imagination and is so simple at the same time. :-) My 2 and 4 year old loves these and I hope to buy the firestation one soon to add to these since they are already making the farmer (my 2 year old's set) and his family visit the circus. :-) I highly recommend this toy!!

    We were throwing a vintage circus themed party for our son's 1st birthday. Because of the party we weren't planning on getting him a gift specifically for his birthday but when I stumbled across this set, I didn't hesitate to purchase. I planned to decorate the refreshment table with this set, then give it to him after the party. I then decided to buy an additional set because it was just too cute and my cousin's son has a birthday coming up that this would be perfect for. The 1st image on the listing is spot on and matches the colors well. The colors are a little more subdued than the last few photos, lending itself to be a bit nostalgic. Yes, the box is cardboard, but it is a very sturdy cardboard so it lends itself to being used in and during the circus play with the set. The pieces are not too small and just the right size for small hands. I didnt expect both sides of each piece to be painted, so I was pleasantly surprised when they were painted to have a front and a back. The animals are painted on both sides in a profile fashion to they can actually be positioned and faced in either direction during play. We've now been playing with them for two weeks and they've held up well so far (I know some folks were worried about premature signs of wear- but we havent experienced it).
    I truly think this set is aces, so I will be looking forward to adding to it with the circus train set and even purchasing other Janod wooden scenes and sets.

    This is the cutest toy I've bought in such a long time. Super well-made wooden pieces are colorful and detailed. I literally squealed opening the box at my desk. I'm a children's librarian and will be partnering this with "If I had a Circus" to check out ... I can't even begin to imagine the hours of play this circus will get and all of the storytelling possibilities.

    I don't think I've purchased anything by Janod in the past, but I really look forward to shopping their other products in the future. Truly a beautiful and well made item ... and at such a great price point! Compared to the MANY other toys I purchased lately, I would have expected this to cost twice as much (but I'm glad it didn't, I'm on a budget). I kind of want one of these for myself now :)

    The only drawback is that the box seems like such an important part of play for this item, yet the picture is just a glued on piece of paper and mine was already pealing up a little. It didn't matter for me since the box won't be used, but that was a little disappointing.
    Reviewed in the United States on March 18, 2015
    My daughter is almost three and has been playing with this toy for the last 6 months. It gets a lot of use. Sometimes she sets up the whole circus and performs shows, and other times she will just carry around her favorite girl riding the horse. It is a wonderful feature that several of the people can actually ride the horse. You can also make the girls balance on top of the elephant's trunk. The cardboard box serves as both the container and looks like two circus tents in the background if you stand up the box halves. The train cars should fit on any wooden train track but are too tall to fit through the Brio train tunnel, for example. The wood pieces are pretty sturdy; my daughter is rough with them (making them jump and do tricks) and managed to break the foot off one of the girls, but I was able to super glue it back on. If a younger toddler is playing with this toy, they might get frustrated by the pieces falling over like dominoes, but my daughter has enjoyed them despite knocking them over quite a bit.
