Additional Information:
J (2Y21D) tried this activity for the first time today. He managed to string the pipe cleaner through the straw, but quickly lose interest to continue.... :-( Will try again tomorrow during potty time so that he can concentrate better, before deciding whether to put this activity away for some time before re-introducing it.
