Feb. 9, 2009 - one2believe - Noah's Ark Review

Posted in Reviews


One2believe is a company that produces toys which enable children to focus on Bible stories in play time. The idea of kids acting out biblical history as they play is very appealing to me.  It is another way for them to learn and reinforce what they are being taught.  Of course, children can act out Bible stories without toys, but toys can be fun too.

For review we received the Noah’s Ark set.:

Photobucket


Recommended for children ages 3 and up, my kids (4 and 7 years old) have thoroughly enjoyed playing with it (and I like it better than the Nativity set previously reviewed.)

The Noah’s Ark set from one2believe includes an ark, Noah, and 14 animals. Animals include a male and female of the following: ostriches, elephants, lions, donkeys, camels, monkeys and sheep.  The animals are sturdy enough for children to play with and should bring many hours of fun.   The ark has only one window, which makes me happy (since the Bible says it had only one window) and it also floats.  I don’t know that it is intended to float, but it does. It also a decent size, all the animals can be stored inside.

What I like:
Kid sized, fun, Bible focused play.  This Noah’s ark would be a great quiet activity for a little one. However, with 14 animals included, more than one child can play.

What I don’t like:
Had a little struggle getting the top of the ark to come off.  I’m not sure how sturdy that actual ark is.  I thought it may crack, but it hasn’t yet, and my kids have played with it plenty.

Noah’s wife, and the sons and their wives are not included, although I’ve never seen an ark that does.   It’s important that children know the full story.  I would not say this is a reason to dismiss the product, just one to be aware of.

From the website:
One2believe's passion is to help children learn important Bible lessons and to have them come to faith in Jesus. Our goal is to provide fun ways of teaching children about the greatest people who ever lived.  This is certainly commendable!  To learn more about this company visit one2believe.com
