I have had 3 rolling pins from Montessori for several years. They are great - easy to clean, sturdy, durable. We had more than 3 grandchildren in the house this summer, so I bought additional rolling pins. They are perfect for making kiddo pizzas.
We gave this to my 2 year old son for Christmas - he loved rolling pizza dough with daddy. It is sturdy and the handles are the perfect size for little hands. We plan to use this for many years to come.
This is the best kitchen tool I have purchased for my daughter yet. It is beautifully made and actually better quality than our adult rolling pin (which is a different brand). Our daughter practices rolling out homemade play dough and is able to handle the pin confidently due to it's quality construction.
It rolls well so the kids have stopped needing my help every other push. we use it with play-dough. it is not a varnished surface so it has become discolored a little from the dye. i love how the middle rolls separate from the handles so the kids can keep their grip and roll away.
