LEGO DUPLO 6759 Busy Farm

My daughter got this for her 3rd birthday, and she loves it! Each page has 4 lines of text for the parent to read, and then says, for example, "Let's build Bright-eyed Rooster. What does he say?" The pages each have a detailed illustration of the storyline plus a picture of the blocks used to make each animal. My favorite thing about the book is that the pictures of the blocks are printed to scale. This helps my daughter because she is able to find each block, put it on top of the corresponding picture, and then push the pieces together. The illustrations and the text are good, but certainly not remarkable. If not for the interactive piece

(putting together the lego animals), I don't think it would hold my daughter's attention, much less mine. With the lego-building activities, however, it is brilliant. The way that the reading and hands-on tasks are interspersed is perfect for keeping a young child's attention.

One other thing worth commenting on is the packaging: it comes in a clear plastic resealable bin. I am so happy they decided to package it that way. Otherwise it would be impossible to keep all the pieces together. If your child has other Legos, you will probably want to make sure these pieces don't get mixed in with the others. It would take away all the fun if you had to search for pieces each time you read the book.

I bought this for my newly 3 year old grandson. He can read quite well, but I read it to him, as he was too interested in building the toys to be bothered. The building "instructions" were very easy to follow, but he loved having them to follow. After a few tries, he was able to build the animals without the instructions, but he just liked looking at them. I think this is a great, durable toy because not only is there reading available but also small motor control manipulation, following instructions, and other good stuff. I wish it were priced at about $10 but anything Lego is expensive.

I love these little sets as gift ideas for young children! I adore the combination of a board book with DUPLO bricks! The book is very cute, and my kids thoroughly enjoyed building the different animals, as did their friends (we received sets to try out through House Party). My one critique is that the set shows a person, but does not include any people. I think the addition of a farmer would really complete the set, and make it even more interesting to young children.

I bought this when I daughter was about 4 months old. My husband and I are big Lego fans and wanted to make sure we give our daughter the same experience.

With my daughter learning to grasp, she gains sensory and motor skills. Reading the book to her, encourages language skills. Building the animals will aid with problem solving skills in her future. We can also practice color recognition and animal recognition. I also always throw in a few rounds of "Old MacDonald" to extend the fun and learning opportunities. It's a great learning tool all around.

This is a nice little set to have for young children to introduce them Legos. And the younger they are when you give it to them, the more use they will get out of it.

Fisher-Price Little People Spin n' Fly Helicopter

I am a big fan of all the little people toys. They last the abuse my 2 year old put on them. The toys themself are simple with out a lot of bells and noise. Most don't even require batteries. I Love that! Due to the fact these toys are so simple they require your child to use their imagination. I have heard all sorts of stories come out of my little one when he plays with his little people. I would recommend this line of toys to any parent of grandparent.

This was bought for 2yr. Old. She likes it & we just discovered the sound button on tail wing, so cute. We love to play together & she likes it a lot.

My 4 yr. old grandson was elated to receive this toy. It was one, if not the, favorite toy he received. I loved that it didn't have a jillion parts to be lost amongst the other jillion toy parts throughout the house. It also has sounds and music but it isn't soooooo loud as to be annoying. Also, the propeller is child-operated. A+ for this one.

Hape Dancing Butterflies Push and Pull

Please be aware that I only really got to see this product after it was opened by the little girl I bought it for and can't speak to it's long term durability. I love Hape toys and really love the bright colors and simple design of this push and pull. I was just a little worried that the stick, which comes in two pieces and screws together might not be sturdy enough to last a long time. However, I used to work in a toy store where similar Hape toys were sold and they seem to stand up pretty well to the frequent use they got from our little customers.

Got this for my 15-month old toddler. She'll push and pull it along, but it doesn't roll very well on hardwood floors. Not sure if it's the angle she's using, or if it's the wheels themselves -sometimes they seem to just slide instead of roll. Works better outdoors on asphalt or sidewalk. She likes the "clack clack" sound of the wood butterflies, and giggles when the toy is moving. She's dropped it a couple of times, and nary a scratch on our floors OR the toy. Very durable. I just wished the wheels rolled better.

Your Baby (6-12M) Will Be Ready For Nine Holes on the Golf Course and Be the Snazziest Golfer Too

I ordered the golfer outfit for my 22 month old son. I ordered the 2T-4T size, hoping it wouldn't be too big. Well, it barely fits him, it is too small. There is absolutely no "give" to the costume and no way he could wear anything underneath, main reason why I got the bigger size. My son has just started wearing 2T in regular clothing. The tights on the bottom are so narrow his foot won't fit in it. There is no way a toddler could fit in this costume.

I had read another review that the leggings were too tight and they were right! I couldn't fit my average size 2 year old son's feet all the way into the stockings and had to fold the material over in the shoe. After 3 wearings the stockings started to tear. The shoe covers shreded on the bottom after one wearing.

I purchased this for my toddler who wears a 3-4T. The costume was

very small. His feet would in no way EVER fit into the stockings.

I had to cut the feet out and sew them to make them look right.

The shirt is entirely too small. When he raised his arms it comes

all the way up his chest. You can't have clothing that runs 2-4T

because there is such a big difference in the sizes. I was very

disapointed.

Nuby Bath Tub Toy

I liked this toy a lot before I realized water gets into the rubber parts and can't really dry out. This is a great way for mold to start growing in it. I DO NOT want my child chewing on a moldy toy. YUK!

This turtle is very cute. It seems well made, considering it is a plastic toy, and both of my kids (ages 11 months and almost 5 years) love it for bath time. Unfortunately, the head is a squirt toy, like a rubber ducky, and those are notorious for mold growth. I did not realize this was the case when I purchased the turtle and I'm not sure I still would have had I known. It seems unnecessary for this toy as the head is hard to squeeze because it's attached to a plastic ring anyway and a head with no holes in it would have been just as fun. For the $2 I paid thanks to a Facebook deal it was worth the cost. Maybe $3. I don't think it's worth full price since it will need to be tossed in a couple of months.

Melissa & Doug Deluxe Fish Bowl Jumbo Knob Puzzle

This is an extremely durable puzzle with pieces that fit well, but not too tightly, into their places providing an excellent challenge for my one-year-old.

My 15 month old daughter loves the large knobs on this colorful puzzle. Being fascinated with animals and aquatic life makes this puzzle a real draw for her. Although she struggles to get the pieces back in the puzzle due to her limited dexterity at this time, it doesn't deter her from playing with it at all! She has discovered that the pieces make great noise makers, too, when they are clapped together. The wood is a bit soft; so it will show indentations over time. However, it is holding up well so far... even through teething!

This is great for a first puzzle. Between 11 and 12 months my daughter started becoming interested in putting items in boxes so I bought her some Melissa and Doug puzzles after doing my research (although some of these are made in china they undergo strict testing).

These pieces are fine unless your baby bites his/her toys--umm, every baby I know!--which may be why they are recommended for 2 year olds, but I am having trouble imagining what 2 year old would play with this boring puzzle. My daughter (10 months) likes it a lot, but she bit the head off the turtle in 10 minutes and now wants to gnaw the rest of the coloring off the other pieces. Sure, it's entertaining, but I don't want the printed paper in her tummy!

Just pulled this out of the box. Size and color are great for my 18 month old. But the puzzle is wrapped in a tight clear plastic, and I can see three places where the fish sticker is already peeling. (This is not painted!) And right next to the tag stating this is wood is a tear in the plastic where the pressed paper/pseudo-wood/possibly MDF material is pealing apart in about 15 layers. Not even opened or touched by my child and it's already coming apart. What a disappointment! I will be returning this immediately, unopened.

Hape Pound & Tap Bench / Educo Early Melodies Pound and Tap Bench

My granddaughter loves this toy. When she first got it, she loved just playing with the balls, now she is older she enjoys all the elements; from pounding the balls with the hammer, to playing music. This toy has grown with her and will always be a staple for me when I buy gifts for children.

Educational? Maybe for an infant to learn cause & effect, but don't expect to be able play any eight-note tunes on the glockenspiel part of the toy. They advertise two toys in one, but if your ears are offended at all by off tune scales, there goes the second toy, because it's unbearable! I got this toy about six months in advance of our 2nd boy's 1st birthday & couldn't wait for him to open it. I can't describe the disappointment I felt. The orange rung & the two purple rungs at the end are totally out of sinc with the others as far as a scale. It wouldn't have been so bad had the xylophone in the Melissa & Doug's instruments in a box been just as out of tune!

I just don't understand why they'd bother making an eight note glockenspiel if it's not going to be in tune! The toy seems to be made fairly well otherwise, all the more reason it makes no sense why the glockenspiel wouldn't be in tune. I wish I could send the thing back to the manufacturer & demand I get one that's in tune. They advertise that you can plunk out a tune--only if you have a song that requires only about 5 notes & can figure out which rungs are in the scale, or if you want the tune to be totally unrecognizable!

We are only keeping it because our son likes to pound the balls through, but I would not recommend this product to anyone.

We bought this toy for my daughter's 1st birthday. She loved it from the moment she unwrapped it. The construction is super sturdy and it seems like it will last a long time. I read the reviews before purchasing this toy that complained about the xylophone being out of tune and thought that they were being a little bit picky. It is a children's toy after all, not a real musical instrument. After playing with the toy for a bit I get where they're coming from. It's not so much that it's out of tune as there is no tune at all. Some of the keys just make a dull metal plunking sound when you strike them. I would have given this toy all the stars if it wasn't for this small defect.

Aurora Plush Baby 6" My First Pet Carrier with Sound

This is an adorable little set, as are the other "Carrier with Sound" sets by Aurora. But, please take note that the names of the animals are NOT embroidered on their sides. I contacted Aurora directly when the Safari set arrived (I bought the Safari, First Pets and Barnyard Carriers) since I thought maybe it was defective since the names were missing. (I subsequently received the First Pet set without the names as well. The Barnyard set was from a different seller and must have been older since "COW", "PIG", etc. were labeled). I was informed by an Aurora representative that their new production of these toys lack the animal names embroidered on their little bodies. Why they would make such a change does not make sense to me... I informed the rep of my disappointment since the animal names were actually a selling point. Hopefully Amazon will update the product pictures so more customers do not have this same experience... Really a shame since having the names on the animals is a nice learning tool. My 11 month old son is able to understand and follow the instruction of, "No, press the 'w' and the cow will moo, not the 'c'". POOR CHANGE, AURORA.

Also, as for the sounds that this set emits when you squeeze the respective animal; the bird has a cute, realistic chirp, the cat an expectant meow, the bunny a sweet snuffling sound (wasn't sure before I purchased what sound a bunny would make!), the dog pants and barks, (though in my opinion, not the best representation of a dog).

My one and a half year-old received this as a present, and she loves it. I didn't know that they used to make the animals with the names on them, so I didn't miss this feature at all. This toy is perfect for traveling, and the animals are just the right size for her little hands. My three year-old son has also had some fun "sharing" this with her.

I was dissapointed with this rattle, it doesn't make much noise and is very poor quality.

The only thing good about this one is that it has a picture of Winnie the Pooh, otherwise not worth it.

VTech - Learn and Discover Driver

This toy has limited interest for my son. I bought it for him when he was 18 mos (he is now 2). He occasionally plays with it for maybe 5 minutes at a time. If you put it on a smooth surface (table, hardwood floor) it slides around when he tried to turn the wheel or pushes/pulls the gearshift. Also it is very LOUD and I find the tone of voice kind of rude: On the horn: "out of the way", on the gas button "fill er up" but the tone of voice isn't nice it sounds like a rude little kid demanding that he be listened to....NOW. Except for the police button which says "slow down little fellow" the rest of them sound like spoiled brats! Not recommended.

At first glance it seemed to be the perfect gift for a baby with a thing for all things wheels and musical. AND normally I really trust the Vtech name so I didn't look at the item too closely prior to buying it. But it didn't take long for me to realize what a mistake I made. Yes, he likes it very much and uses it well, and it performs well etc. However, I will agree that there is NOTHING nice about how the voices speak or what they say and I would never think that I would have such a 'prudish' view on a baby toy! But it is rude, it is obnoxious and I don't like the message if you can say that there is one I mean they could have had much more endearing snippets. There is little education in it really and the songs are short the lyrics to the ABC song is half cut out?!?!? I could do without having education in a toy but that coupled with the bad attitude I have one thing to say "Outta' my house"

The older version of this toy is MUCH better with friendlier voices and helpful 'neighbors'. Vtech should go back to the old version.

Buy VTech - Learn and Discover Driver Now

I bought my son this driver when he was about 7 months old. At first he loved it. It makes all sorts of entertaining sounds for a baby. His favorites were the shifting sounds which he could easily activate (by moving the gear shift). He also loved the radio button especially when it played "Are you driving" (it is the brother john tune). While my son loved the noises this thing makes, I find that they can get very annoying, especially since the low volume is very loud.

After a few months, my son lost interest in this toy. He still plays with it occasionally, but it is no longer a favorite. At almost a year, he still never actually "drove" the toy. Perhaps once he learns to do this, he will regain interest in it. When the wheel is turned, the rollers spin. When they stop, the toy says one of three phrases about the pictures that show up. For example, "green square", "two bees" or "b is for bee" is said when the roller shows a picture with two bees and a green square. This could be educational once my son gets a little older.

One thing my son did learn to do pretty quickly was turn the toy on and off. The switch is sort of like a key in the ignition. It is very securely attatched though. I like that it is easy to turn so that my son can work it by himself. Most toys I have to start for him. Overall, I think I got my moneys worth. $15 dollars is a decent price for a few months of daily entertainment, even if my son never takes to it again.

I'm sad to see this toy getting such poor reviews. Yes, it does say "get out of the way" and "slow down little fella", but my DAUGHTER still loves it. The volume control on the bottom is loud and louder, and that's definitely a negative for me of course it doesn't bother my toddler. But all in all, this toy has been great. It's been well-loved and still works like new. My toddler loves to drive, and this toy has kept her interest for over a year. Just because it's not specifically designed for education doesn't mean there's nothing to be gained. We make it educational by naming the animals, shapes, numbers, letters and colors on the toy. We also sing the songs on the "radio" my child has gotten so good at it, that she can hit the button in rapid succession to get to the song she wants. Fun toy!

B. Dr. Doctor

B. Doctor

Very safe for younger children is the best thing about this toy! As a child development specialist, this is the first thing I look for. I was looking for toys to have at my house for grandchildren that were safe and had some learning value. This toy works. Most of the Dr. Kits are for 3 and up, but really you need that type pretend play when they are younger and more fearful of routine Dr visits. This kit was safe for my 15 month old, but enjoyed by my 3 1/2 year old. The toys are safe for younger children, but look enough like real tools for them to be able to associate it with the real Dr.'s tool. I was not sure about the 'pager', but you will be glad the buttons are hard to press, because it is noisy, hopefully they figure out how to push it when they can understand quiet time! The box is large, but it allows you to add a white shirt (Dr. Coat,)empty band aid box, etc. as they get older for more imaginative play. I wish all toys with pieces came in a reusable storage container!

When I asked my daughter about her recent Dr. visit with the 18 month old, she said it was great, she thought the Dr. play with the kit was helpful. Did not seem as fearful.

I plan to order 2 more for Christmas gifts.

Does your little one check your ears with a glue gun; does he/she 'zamine your heart with anything that can be hung around his/her neck? If so, you may have a doctor in the house, and the "B. Doctor" set is just what your child needs for creative, imaginative play.

The roomy "doctor bag" provides a handy container for the nine tools that are included in the set. To adults, it may seem a bit too large, but smaller children find it easy to use as they do not have to carefully pack things to have them all fit. The stethescope is particularly nice its simulated heartbeat brought shouts of glee when my grandson first used it on "Papa." While there is a pager included in the kit, the manufacturer might consider replacing it with a toy "smart phone" so it is more in keeping with current trends. The other instruments otoscope, blood-pressure cuff, thermometer, oral mirror, tweezers, syringe, and scissors provide a variety of "healthcare" options and help foster imaginative play.

"B. Doctor" is constructed and finished well. There are no rough edges that could cut tender skin and no itty-bitty copmponents that might accidentally get put somewhere they should not have gone.

"B. Doctor" is definitly a 5-star toy. However, you should be aware that the price fluctuates greatly; I have seen it on Amazon from as low as $21+ to somewhere in the $30 range. My daughter got her son's "B. Doctor" at the red bullseye store for $22, so be sure to shop around for the best price.

Buy B. Dr. Doctor Now

As a grandma, I purchased the B. Doctor Kit for my home so that the grandkids could play with it. They equally all love playing with it! The case is a bit bigger than it needs to be, but you can add items to it, such as play scrubs. The beeper is really cool and works just fine...but you have to teach the child to hold the buttons down for them to work. Once they understand that, it is no problem for them. I highly recommend this kit.

I much prefer the B. Doctor Kit to the Fisher-Price Dr Kit. My own children had that years ago and I really loved it. But now, unless you have a girl and can buy the pink set, it comes in a material tote with a simple velcro closure and the tools fall out, and there are no where near the items that there used to be in it.

Read Best Reviews of B. Dr. Doctor Here

I bought this for my 2 year old son after a trip to the doctor, thinking it would be fun for him to play with replicas of the same items the doctor used that day. This seemed like a nice, basic, kit. But we were terribly disappointed. For starters, the case is enormous much too large to be easily portable, and much larger than necessary for the few items that come inside of it. It's awkward and takes up too much space (plus, it doesn't even look like a doctor's medical bag!). The top is difficult to open my son can't do it himself. But worst of all was the quality and design of the items inside the case... All were made of super cheap, light, poorly molded plastic. The syringe fell apart within about 2 minutes of taking it out of the box (the plunger isn't connected to the rest of it, and promptly fell out and got lost). The stethoscope ear pieces are way too large to fit in any child's ear or any adult's ear for that matter. So uncomfortable, my son couldn't bear to use them for more than about 30 seconds. And the stethoscope isn't even a "real" working device that can pick up a heartbeat, like all the other toy kits have... the end is simply a cheap machine that makes fake "heartbeat" noises (which sound like static) when you push a button. How disappointing! The thermometer also looks/operates nothing like a real thermometer it's quite strangely designed. I returned this kit the day after buying it, and bought one by another manufacturer that was infinitely better...

Want B. Dr. Doctor Discount?

The case and items inside are designed so awkwardly that a child won't find them fun or even be able to open the box. The toys inside are difficult to manipulate, the parts that move are sticky or just didn't fit right. The case is such a strange design, I don't know why there is a graphic on top that looks like a homeless person's scarf, and the box has flimsy plastic windows on the sides that will surely break in 1 or 2 uses. We sent it back as soon as we got it. Really junk.

UPDATE:

We bought the Fisher Price Medical kit for substantially less than this one, and it is exactly what we expected for our little one.

Amazing Animals Push & Pull Lion

This goes along great with the rest of the Amazing Animals set and the Sing & Go ChooChoo set. The lion is really cute and my son (12 months) loves the main that can be twisted for fun clicking sounds. My son also loves to make the little monkey that attached to the cart spin around and around! Highly recommend getting this toy if you have any of the other Amazing Animals, they go so great together!

My daughter has this addition to the Amazing Animals train and loves it! Ours came as part of a Push & Pull gift set that also includes the zebra, crocodile, and panda. It is a much better value to buy it as the gift set with all the animals than to buy it separately. I suggest looking up the Fisher-Price Push & Pull Gift Set with BONUS Purple Crocodile. The Fisher Price Amazing Animals Tote Gift Set with BONUS Hippo is an awesome value too!!

My son has the Amazing Animals Train set and loves it. I purchased the lion as an addition to his set. He really enjoys playing with it and works great with or without the train.

I thought this toy was adorable when my sister sent it for my baby boy. He got it at about 6 months old and he liked the colors and played with it often. The older he got the less he played with it. He's 23 months now and hasn't played with it in about a year.

IMO it was a waste of money, it didn't have any longevity. Oh well, it was a gift.

My daughter really likes these cars and I plan to give them as a gift in the future because of our experience with them. She loves opening all the different flaps and pockets. I originally introduced them at 6 mo, which was too young for her to really enjoy them. But now that she is close to one year, she "drives" them on the floor and makes "vroom vroom" noises. They are something she looks for in the toy bin and I would put them in the "favorite toy" category. You can't really tell from the picture, but the colors are bright and the wheels are plastic and move easily. The only thing I wish I could change is that they aren't machine washable.

My son started playing with these at about 6 months. He still plays with them everyday at almost a year. I think they are really cool, I love the colors and the flaps on them. I'm also a big fan of cloth toys. I would highly recommend them to anyone with a kid (baby to toddler) that likes cars.

My eight month old grandson loves his IQ Baby Zoom Zoom Vehicles. The six vehicles are colorful, having enough flaps and windows behind which colorful people and animals are hidden to keep him entertained for extended periods of time. The textures of the fabrics used in constructing these vehicles vary from shiney, smooth satin to corduroy-type finishes. The vehicles are sufficiently large so that he can grasp them even though his fine motor-skills are not fully developed.

We can actually get all six vehicles stacked, if we are quick, so that he can knock down the tower. This is one of his favorite things to do and results in smiles and laughter.

The finish work on these vehicles is well done. There are no rough seams or raw edges showing. The plastic wheels on all six vehicles have smooth edges; that is a real plus since those wheels are a favorite teething chew.

If you have a little one, he or she might enjoy these colorful, multi-functional vehicles.

This held my child's interest for a whopping 2 minutes, and he refused to play with it any longer. Really, it's a bunch of soft cars that don't roll, are difficult to push and don't stay stacked. Don't waste your money.

These little cars are so darn adorable. They seemed a bit expensive to me, but once they arrived, the detail was so lovely, I think they are worth the price. I just wish my son loved them as much as I did, but he's only 7-months old, so hopefully he'll grow into them. For now, I enjoy playing with them, lifting the flaps, and vroooming all around.
