A great little toy and not too loud - This was originally given to my first child, a girl, who really loved the movement and music. My son then inherited it and has been fascinated from the first time he saw it. The gear ratio is low and it will not pinch fingers. Gears may be moved for different patterns, they can also be stacked. My children are both in school but will not let me pass this toy on to their cousins. They still like it very much.
