My near-two toddler is very interested in remotes and learning colors, and this product combines both of those interests. She totally "gets" the remote (and the power/mode button on the bottom of the cube). She likes calling out a color (or getting a request), and then hitting the correct button. She also learned to say, "blinking". My only criticism is that the remote is relatively weak; you have to really point it at the cube, from pretty close range, which is sometimes confusing for her.
