Wooden activity board thingy?

Saw a lovely freestanding thing a while ago - had wheels, knobs, mirrors etc on it to play with - but guess it may have been home made or very old. Anyone seen anything similar?

Sorry, don't know how that happened. Ignore duplicate post.

My dd was given a lovely wooden activity cube thing for her 1st b'day recently. It was by East COast but no idea where my SIL got it from.
Its great, has a huge bead maze on the top, on the sides it has
a chalk board
a maze with wooden knobs to pull around
a number rack to twirl around
a xylophone
The good thing about the maze on the top is that you can take it off and reverse it so it can sit inside the cube for easy storage if you get what I mean.
hope this helps.

Thanks Bonkerz. Found one via the Galt site - looks great but £65!!!

i know that all wooden toys are expensive but well worth the money. Try and find your local toy libraby. i paid £2 to register and pay 20p per item to borrow for 4 weeks at a time!

Hi Zinger, yes thats it, but like bundle said the same one seems to be in php. try their website maybe. I guess it depends on p&p and all that etc. but dd loves it.

Zinger - that's pretty much identical to the ones I saw at the wooden toy party on I mentioned on your original thread - same price too. They had one on show there and it really was beautiful and well made.
