This Clown Girl Toddler Halloween Costume is nice and my daughter loved it but it is very poorly made. The material is very thin and comfortable but it tore after the first time in the washing machine.the costume is cuter in the picture. the material leaves one wanting more, especially for the price. overall, for a one time use, it's okay.

Sassy Grasp & Glow - Green & Purple
It's a nice toy and baby plays with (eating it :)) or we can roll the ball that becomes lighted up so baby is getting attracted to it, but it's not the greatest toy one that our baby is in love with.LOVE this! and more importantly my baby loves it. she gets to learn how to spin it and the light up feature keeps her happy and mesmerized. i now always give it as one of my shower gifts!

Lil Jack Rattle & Teether
Good, quality product. It has seems for little nasties to hide. I didn't like that, but that didn't become a problem as my son didn't care for the toy whatsoever. the "rattle" feature is so minimul (as i. Too quiet) you have sain to hear it.Seems a quality item, baby has yet to use it so I don't know how little one likes it yet. Cute though.

Bunnies by the Bay Petal Pumps Bunny
Love these shoes! Well made, very soft and they will match several of my grandaughtersBunnies by the Bay outfits.These are absolutely adorable, and my daughter loves them! They stay on a lot better than socks and keep her feet warmer too. I did have to sew back on one of the flowers at some point, but that was because she was particularly interested in those and kept pulling on them.

SmartyKat BlockParty 3-Pack Kitten Rattle Ball
I'd been looking for these in so many local stores, and finally found here! So glad! My cat carries these all over the house in her mouth!When we adopted our now 2 yr old Siamese, these were his favorite toys. You might think he would move on to other toys as an adult cat, but these rattle balls bring out the kitten in him. He still loves to bat these around and carry them in his mouth. So adorable. And now our new kitten loves them too! Can't wait to order these with my next purchase :)

Especially for Baby Under the Sea Bath Squirtees
My 3 year old has lots of bath toys and these cute little guys were amongst the first. They are adorable and helped him learn to identify his animals. As a baby he loved to chew on the different shapes, and as he became a toddler he started enjoying squeezing water out. However, all those nooks and crannies inside (esp. Mr. Octopus) also tend to retain moisture and grow mold. Before long sticky dark mold would come out when it was squeezed (nasty, esp if your baby tries to squeeze into his mouth). You can do your best to rinse this out regularly, squish out all the water after every bath, or wash with some diluted dishwashing solution, but the gross factor remains...after this experience I'm sticking to bath toys that are completely sealed or easy to take apart and wash.My son loves these so much I ordered a second set since he likes them for his bath and also to teethe. The crab is the clear favorite :)

Large ABC Blocks by Schylling
There seem to be several toys of this nature with varying size blocks. Some of them are really small too and the pictures are somewhat deceptive in depicting the size. This toy, though it says large blocks, is composed of 48 one and three-fourth inch wooden cubes. The cubes are robustly built and light. Box is solidly built. My child likes the cubes and also uses the box as a stepping stool sometimes. I think it will last a long time. I'm satisfied with this purchase.My daughter loves playing with these. She stacks them and tries to identify the colors and letters. These blocks are much bigger than the typical 1" blocks you'll find in typical stores, which makes them better for stacking and grasping. The only minor downside is the wood is a little soft, meaning they can get dinged rather easily, but overall, they're great.Buy Large ABC Blocks by Schylling Now
These blocks arrived looking like they had been slightly used. I thought, okay, no big deal, but then the paint begain chipping off more.Cheap blocks. It's what I get for the price payed.I bought these as a prop for my photo shoots, maternity or infant pictures. They are very detailed and larger than normal, perfect for grandparents and/or photos.I like the clear, modern graphics on these blocks. On the downside, the blocks are soft and have a few internal (not edge) cracks. They won't be heirlooms, but they are perfectly adequate for banging around and stacking by my one-year-old.

Kids Preferred Mama-Baby Lamb Action Musical
I gave this as a gift and the newborn baby and her mommy both love it. It's super soft and really cute!I had to order this sheep in US, because there are hardly any toys with "normal" mechanical music boxes playing "Mary had a little lamb" here in Europe.The funny thing is also the "bad" thing about it.
I wanted to have a music box with a pull-rope mechanism.
This music box has to be wind up by rotatin the little lamb on the back.
The rotating little lamb really looks cute and funny.

Deluxe Darth Maul for Child
Well, this is a good way to teach a young boy about profit margins. Complete junk at this price seems to be the way of the world these days. The mask (the most important part of the costume) is one of those old-school thin plastic masks (but less durable than you remember) with a small elastic band that goes behind the head. It does not stay on and is very uncomfortable. Plus, it is so flimsy that it was already cracked when it arrived. This is guaranteed to break half way through "trick or treating." You're better off spending less money on a rubber mask. The costume itself comes with a top and pants. Our boy is 52" tall, and the medium size was borderline too small. NOT fire-friendly, so be very careful. The childrens Darth Maul Costume was kind of chinsy for the price. the mask split on the bottom right away. It only came with a mask and a flimsy outfit which, I feel, wasn't a good buy for the price.Teri
Buy Deluxe Darth Maul for Child Now
Our son is a big STARS WARS (SW) fan, so of course he has all the SW costumes. We received our Darth Maul (DM) costume in a timely manner. The costume is made of a nylon sort of fabric, like many other costumes these days. As the picture shows it is a very simple black costume with simple white markings and a very thin plastic mask (no double light saber as indicated.) The outfit fits very well surprisingly, considering there is still much room for growth. My son is 4 and on the growth chart is on the 50%; pretty average. My son really loves his costume and he really gets into character with this costume. My only disappointment is how thin the mask is; it can tear fairly easily if you have a rough lil guy (or girl.) My guess is it will last a few weeks and I may have to find a better quality DM mask in the future. Overall, it is a big hit with our son. The costume itself was decently made, I was pleasingly surprised. However I've never seen a cheaper and flimsier mask. The eyes were only slits, and I had to cut them out and file down the sharp edges so my grandson could see out of the mask. The mask was really junk and if I had the time to search for another, I would have. The costume held together and can be worn for play or loaned out another year.

Lansinoh mOmma Teether, Jack the Seal
I bought this teether along with the penguin one and my baby loves both of them. It's easy for her to grip, and she likes to teeth on "the arms". She also likes shaking it and hearing the water move around. They are so cute too!Mostly he likes to throw it around. It chills well in the fridge and has held up to some abuse, but my 9 months old son still doesn't "get" how to use this teether ... we'll keep trying.

VTech Catch-Me-Kitty
We bought this adorable kitty toy for our granddaughter's first birthday. She likes it, but not as much as we thought she might, but of course she's not old enough to tell us what she thinks about it......as for people hearing the word, "rape," well, I was surprised at that....we never heard the toy as saying anything other than "chase" and "race" and kitty speaks more clearly than a lot of people we have to deal with on a daily basis.....there is absolutely no "p" sound to be heard at all. Sometimes it seems like some people are always looking for what they can find wrong with everything and half the time, that in itself is what is wrong with this world in general.My daughter got this for her first birthday, SHE LOVED IT! It has a sensor on the back and front so it dosnt bump into things and it spins around when it gets near an object (like a roomba), plays music (gets annoying, but she likes it so you can just tune out the music like on every other kids toy you have). Not very educational, but she she had fun chasing it around the house.... that is, she had fun for the two days it worked. As with anything, toddlers pick up there toys, and then usually drop or throw them. my daughter dropped this on the carpet twice, and it started to not work properly, started "stuttering" and freezeing. She dropped it on the hardwood once, and it stopped working all together. You would THINK they would make these more durable since they are intended for toddlers. I am so bummed, but I am not going to be buying another just for it to break.The voice even says "chase me" and when you pick it up it says "weeeeeee" so the designers knew that little kids would be roughousing with it, so it ought to be more durable.
Too bad, cuz untill it broke, she really had fun with it. Dont waste your money.I almost missed out on a great toy from reading all the negative comments about this toy. My 1 year old twin nieces loved this toy from the moment I took it out of the box. They were laughing and chasing after this cute little cat. I love the fact that this toy turns around on its own if it get trapped into a corner. It was fun watching my nieces play nonstop with this toy. It also tired them out lol! I did not hear anything alarming in the song. I am so glad I bought this toy. This toy was well worth it.I bought this for my daughter when she was about 8 months and was just really starting to crawl like crazy. I thought it would be fun for her to chase after it. This little kitten is so cute! It doesn't offer much for educational purposes a few nursery rhymes and that's about it but runs really well. Unlike other reviewers, mine has not had many mechanical problems yet. I've had it for about three months and my daughter drops it and has not been gentle with it. The toy runs really smoothly on tile floors and the sensor does a great job of sensing objects around it including baby. That keeps the kitty running away from baby and baby chasing after the kitty. It runs slightly less smoothly on my area rugs, but that's to be expected. All in all, I really liked this toy. Unfortunately, my daughter lost interest quickly. She loved it the first day, but now just picks it up every so often and moves on rather quickly.We got this toy for Christmas for our son, only to have everyone in the room gasp when the kitty started singing "Chase me, Race me". The S's and C's are not well heard on ours, so it sounds like she is singing "Cha me, rape me". I'm going to contact V-Tech and let them know. I don't think this is intentional by any means, but our kitty is not a very good kitty for him.

Skip Hop Treetop Friends Soft Activity Book
It's easy on my eyes and there are lots of different things in this toy for my baby to play with. The details are very thoughtful (hard plastic leaf that acts as a teether, tiny mirror, lots of crinkly plastic) and make this a really great improvement on the usual soft books that are out there.My son, age 6 months loves this toy. If he's not turning pages, he is chewing on the leaf. The loop that attaches it to things is not very strong so he can easily pull it off his stroller or car seat if I have attached it but it's still worth it. This is one of the most entertaining items we have had. Plus, it's cute. You can't beat the design.Buy Skip Hop Treetop Friends Soft Activity Book Now
This is a nice easy activity book that hooks onto stroller or whatever you need it. I even like the material and colors. Glad I bought it. Skip Hop always a good brand.Read Best Reviews of Skip Hop Treetop Friends Soft Activity Book Here
Our baby girl is still too young to really use this but she loves staring at all the Treetop Friends collection.this has become my baby's favorite chewable, crinkly toy. at 5 months, she loves to put just about anything in her mouth, and this book has lots of different parts that interest my baby, and her favorite part so far is the owl on the front page. for washing, i generally throw it in a clothes net, and wash it under gentle cycle and air dry it.Monday, March 3, 2014
Brainy Baby 9910 Shapes and Colors Learning - Flash Cards
My sister gave these cards to us when my daughter was first born. I started to show the cards to her around 11 months (yes they are flimsy) and ended up going to Kinko's and laminating them since she liked to bend them. I have worked with her almost every day on them and she now can recognize and say most of the colors and shapes at 18 months! She loves to pull out her bag and do flashcards together while at home or away. We also have the ABCs cards and she has learned those as well. I say use your judgement if you want to purchase them or not, but as for our family we love them and can't wait to give them to friends!

Hape Little Plane
Perfect size for toddlers and very well made. Has survived many falls off our coffee table! Still not sure what the point of the moving wings is supposed to be, but my son loves playing with it.this toy is even cuter in person and the wings can flap up and down. Well made my son has enjoyed it.Super cute! Super simple! The baby blue is a beautiful color and matches the helicopter wonderfully. Every kid should own one!Very happy with the toy. With the large wooden wheels, the plane rolls smoothly accross the floor, even on carpet. Received as expected.This little plane car has been a lot of fun for my one year old daughter. I thought it was a bit small at first, but I've gotten over that completely.

Manhattan Toy Peek-Squeak Large Activity Toy
I love this softy Toy, it has two medium horns that the could be use as a teether, also teething rings around his neck, hand with magnet so the small bird can attach well, a huge 5 star mirror that will keep your baby smiling, and finally a squeakers legs. My baby love the horns and the mirror and she is still 8 month old, and i think it will be very good toy for toddlers too.This toy is adorable, but when it arrived my mom pointed out to me that it has a number of small pieces attached by some string. If any of them detach from the toy, then they are definitely choking hazards. I was a little shocked that Amazon sold it as a baby toy without any mention of these small pieces.Otherwise, it's very cute, but I plan on using it more as decoration than as a toy my baby actually uses.

The colors aren't very bright so this toy only captured her attention by the sounds of the rattle, bird, rings, and squeakers. She preferred this toy when she was around 4 months, now at 9 she prefers to just chew on it. I haven't seen her interested in the manipulative aspects of this toy, one of the whole points, but she does still like it. And I can't imagine any of the small pieces coming free of the toy without scissors, so not a risk.Read Best Reviews of Manhattan Toy Peek-Squeak Large Activity Toy Here

Freddy the Baby Spider Infant / Toddler Costume
THIS WAS A WONDERFUL HALLOWEEN COSTUME. VERY UNIQUE. MY SON HAD FUN WEARING THIS COSTUME. I RECOMMEND IT TO ANYONE WITH A TODDLERThis costume was a hit. My little boy was adorable, comfortable, and warm in this costume all day long. He actually enjoyed wearing the top hat and was so happy to be able to sit up with the support of the spider legs. I wish he wouldn't grow so fast so he can wear it again.Buy Freddy the Baby Spider Infant / Toddler Costume Now

I ordered the 6-12 month for my 81/2 month old son, he's about 22 lbs/30ish inches and it fit him with plenty of room to sparethe hat (that he only wore long enough for a couple of pictures) was a little too big , but we made it work. It's so different (and much higher quality) than what you can find in the local stores and we got so many compliments on it. I did have to buy opaque tights (which gave him 10 legs), but other than that, it was perfect!Want Freddy the Baby Spider Infant / Toddler Costume Discount?
