Kettler Kettrike Splash Tricycle

You must be aware of what you are getting though. Amazon's ad says that the trike has the free-wheeling option, it does not.
I bought it because of the safety features and the free-wheeling option, which I found out when I got it, it didn't have. So it hurts my daughters foot and leg as the pedals spin. She is now a little intimidated by it. We will work through this eventually. The company I bought it from compensated me for Amazons false ad though.

My preschool bought 10 of these trikes. They are not used on a daily basis and they are stored in a building away from the elements. The children who use them meet the recommended age/size. Seven of the 10 broke in the same location (the wheel fork)where it is welded together. The manufactuer was very unwilling to help us replace the parts. Obviously the location of the break has been caused by faulty manufacturing. I do not recommend this trike and question the company's commitment to quality, safety assurance and customer satisfaction.Read Best Reviews of Kettler Kettrike Splash Tricycle Here
This was originally a gift from Santa for my 2nd son when he was 2.5. 4 years later and having endured the constant wear and tear from the same son and 2 of my other children this is still a favored ride-on amongst all of the children and with an easy seat adjuster accommodates our 2 year old just as easily as our 6 and 7 year olds. Plus, the frame is solid enough to endure constant free-wheeling rides from our 30-58 lb children down a 70 ft. long 30 degree slope in our backyard. How's that for rugid? Our tricycle was manufactured in Germany rather than other Kettler models that our manufactured in China.We're looking forward to at least 4 more years of continued use from this happy trike! This was truly a great buy.

This is a great little workshop for the little "man" in your life. My grandson loves his and it keeps him entertained!Read Best Reviews of Little Tikes DiscoverSounds Workshop Here
You need a child with strong arm to knock those musical knobs hard enough to make a sound. The middle, yellow knob, hardly plays misic when I pound it..one thing I don't like is that the whole thing easilygets knocked down, for a child on the younger side, 13 months, he barelyleans on it and down it goes.Wednesday, April 30, 2014
Green Toys My First Stacker, Colors May Vary

Buy Green Toys My First Stacker, Colors May Vary Now
We are making our best effort to purchase toys for our baby that are made in the USA (or more specifically not made in china). We were so happy to find the Green Toys line this toy is made in the USA of recycled milk jugs!This stacker is cute, durable and fun! My son (8 months) loves playing with this knocking it over, banging the pieces together, picking up individual pieces. He has been playing with this for a few months and I know he will continue to enjoy it for many months to come as his motor skills, sorting skills & stacking skills improve. Another thing that I like ... this toy is also easy to wash and dry. Love this toy highly recommend!

I had to take my at the time 10 mo old son to a dr's appt a long distance from home. We ended getting lost (thankfully we were 1 1/2 early!) and stumbled on an educational store. We waited for them to open and wandered around. I had been looking for a stacking toy and saw this toy. I liked the looks of it, so I got it. I ended up taking it into the appt with us, and my son played with it. (Yes, straight out of the box. I did not wash it, nor have I, in fact. GASP!) It did not have any discernable odor. It did not have any imbedded objects. My son loves it. I do wish it had one more color pair, to make the orange cap not as loose & to make it a bit taller, but that's just me. The sections remind me exactly of air hockey mallets.The cap gets "lost" often, as one of my cats likes to play with it too. You probably won't have to worry about that, I'm just sharing that my "kids" of many species like it. LOLWhen we received this product, we were surprised by the strong chemical smell that this product had. We washed it, and hoped the smell would go away in time, but the odor lingered.

Philips AVENT Range BPA-Free Back Teeth

Buy Philips AVENT Range BPA-Free Back Teeth Now
This is well made like all Phillips Avent products. The "tail fins" reach to the back of your little ones mouth. BPA free like all things should be that go into a babes mouth! The little window with small fishes give the baby something of interest to look as they shake and rattle.Read Best Reviews of Philips AVENT Range BPA-Free Back Teeth Here
Teething is not an easy thing but back theeting is the worst. My son was trying to find some relief by putting all kind of things deep in his mouth. It was unsafe because he was desperatly tring with some smaller items. This ring was perfect for that.He is absolutely not interested in it anymore now that the teeth came out but I guess it will be a big hit again for the next back teeth to come.
I definitely recommend itThis teether is great because it is also a rattle. My son's favorite teethers are the Philips Avent line, and he has a LOT to choose from. He won't really use his other teethers, just the ones from this line. His favorite to chew on is the front teeth animal round one. This is his favorite to play with. He touches the bumpy fins, shakes the rattle, and chews on the front green part. I highly recommend this.

Skip Hop Treetop Friends Activity Gym

there are nice surprises in the mat-crinkly sounding leaves, a soft kind of velour-ish leaf, a flower that squeaks if you press on it, a mirror in the trunk of the tree (very nice for tummy time!)
the hanging toys seem pretty high quality, and are very cute! the owl makes a chiming noise and the apple is velvety to touch and has a mirror in it. my son also seems to like the pillow that comes with it, especially for tummy time.
the only thing i wish was different was the thickness-i would like a little more cushion in it.I picked this activity gym over the hundreds available on the market mainly because Amazon states under its material type as cotton. I really try to avoid purchasing baby products that are polyester. When I received it, it's 100% polyester, which is why I took two stars off. But I kept it because out of all the activity gyms out there, I think this is the one that is the least of an eyesore in my living room. My daughter absolutely loves laying on this and staring at the animals. She actually did her "tummy time" the longest she's ever done with this. It gives me 20 to 30 minutes a day to get things done and she even fell asleep on it once. Overall, I think when it comes to picking activity gyms, it's more the parent's preference than the baby's. Babies aren't too picky about how things are designed and can be amused by the simplest things. Parents like to "overstimulate" their babies with the toys that light up and play music and it's really not necessary to keep a baby happy.

I love this activity mat. It is so cute and modern. The baby loves it and it looks good in my house; it's not to crazy colored for my taste. The only reason I gave it 4 stars was because you can't fold it up. I had the Fisher Price Jungle one and you could fold up the bars so it wasn't open, and easy to store. This one, if I have to put it away for any reason, I would have to take it apart. It is easy to do so, but kind of a pain in the butt.Read Best Reviews of Skip Hop Treetop Friends Activity Gym Here
I was dead set against a baby gym because I think most of them are ugly and I did not want one in my living room. People kept telling me this was a mistake, because babies love these things, and they are great for developing hand/eye coordination. I finally found this one and decided that it is the only one on the market that I think is cute! I put it on my baby registry and received it.When my son was about 3-4 weeks old he started having longer periods of time where he would be alert. I started out putting him on his play mat for about 10-20 minutes at a time, and now at 3.5 months he can seriously play for over an hour! He loves to grab at the dangling animals and I love that you can hook other toys onto the loops for variety. The little pillow is good for tummy time, but at 3.5 months it's not needed anymore. We have this set up in our living room 24/7 and I don't hate looking at it. In fact, I love that we have it because it keeps him so entertained.
It's a pricey mat, but well worth the money. I was lucky to receive it as a gift. Love the owl motif. Sometimes other people are right!Like everyone else, I bought this activity gym because it's the cutest one on the market. However, the mat is too thin to use directly on hardwood floors. My baby liked grabbing at the toys for short periods of time, but it didn't keep her entertained for more than 5-10 minutes. Once my baby outgrew the activity gym, I detached the toys to use in her playpen or as stroller toys. Today, she was sitting in her bumbo on the hardwood floor playing with the bird toy with the wooden ring. She was tapping it on the ground, not even with much force, and the wooden ring broke. Luckily, I saw this happen and could remove the broken pieces before she tried to put them in her mouth. I imagine this could potentially be dangerous and wanted to warn other parents. If you purchase this activity gym, I would strongly recommend removing and discarding the wooden ring or at the very least not detaching that toy from the overhead bar. I have read reviews about this happening with their stroller toys that have similar-looking wooden rings, so I would be careful with any of their products with these rings. I have posted a photo of the broken toy for your reference.

Infantino Stick and Play Highchair Toy

I bought it to stick on high chair tray to keep my grandaughter interested while I made her food. It stuck for a couple of seconds, but was quickly pulled off. It is useless as a high chair toy. High chair tray is smooth and not textured so that was not the problem
However, my grandaughter really likes this toy and so I hold it while she plays with it. She will sometimes play with it on her own.
I would rate it zero stars for a high chair toy, and three stars as a toy, so I settled on two stars as a compromise
Buy Infantino Stick and Play Highchair Toy Now
~BACKGROUND~I purchased this toy for my 2 month old son to aid in the development of his motor skills.
I have suctioned the toy to various surfaces plastic, corian counter, finished wood.
~PROS~
Spinning flower "clicks" as it turns and makes the beads move and make noise as well. Also provides an added feature and easier access to the 4 petals mirror, spinning butterfly, spinning bee and bead filled petal.
Great entertainer for the high chair. We are currently using ours in the Bumbo Floor Seat with Tray AQUA with the Bumbo Seat Play Tray, Ivory.
Can be used as a non-stick plain old toy as well.
~CONS~
The "stay put base" does not stay put very well. It appears to work best on a very smooth surface, but still loses it's suction. I have tried numerous methods in an attempt to keep it suctioned various levels of pressure on the base, various amounts of moisture on the suction cup. Sometimes it stays put longer than others, but eventually it falls over.
~TIPS~
As with any toy that gets put in your child's mouth (which is practically everything) I strongly encourage the use of non-toxic products that are safe for your child such as:
The First Years 90 Count Pacifier Wipes
Munchkin 36 Pack Arm and Hammer Pacifier Wipes, White
~CONCLUSION~
My son loves to sit in his before mentioned Bumbo with the flower stuck to the Bumbo tray. I like to move it from one side to the other to encourage him to use both of his hands to spin the flower and explore the petals.

Adorable toy but pretty much worthless because it constantly falls over. Flower is top heavy. Ordered a few more sassy toys and they stick much better. Waste of money....ughI bought this toy at another retailer and at first it was great. The only problem? (and the reason it only got 3 stars) It doesn't stick! It continuously falls off my son's highchair and his floor seat. He can easily pull it right off. He loves the toy itself, but it just doesn't stay put. I wish infantino would make a different base to it, with less places a baby can grab on to to unattach the toy.Tuesday, January 7, 2014
CHILD Scarecrow Costume - Officially Licensed Costume from Wizard of Oz (Straw not included)

Buy CHILD Scarecrow Costume - Officially Licensed Costume from Wizard of Oz (Straw not included) Now
THE HEADPIECE WAS SIZED FOR A 2 YR OLD. AND THE HAT IS ALSO WAAAY TOO SMALL. I HAD TO SEW A HEADPIECE SO IT COULD BE USED IN TIME FOR THE SHOW.The costume is terrible quality and it doesn't come with a mask as pictured. It was also missing all the straw and one of the black straps. Not sure what happened with this transaction, but it was a big fail on Amazon's part. I returned the costume.The product was sent very quickly and arrived in new condition, so I have no issue with the service. However, the costume was VERY cheaply made. The elastic in the waistband failed immediately buy coming detached from the pants and also it was completely stretched out and had no elasticity. The pants were so long they fit my 16 year old son, so they were not "child-size." The headpieces which were a hat and bag-like part were both WAY too small for my 7-year-old daughter, so it was toddler-sized. The image displayed here did not accurately match they item sent at all. We tried to make it work with buying straw and other parts, but we ended up using NO part of this purchase to use as her scarecrow costume. She ended up with her own jeans, her own cowboy hat, her own flannel shirt and brown boots. She had a great time in the costume with our own make-shift supplies, so if I had to do it over I WOULD NOT have purchased this item.Saturday, January 4, 2014

Petite Panda Infant / Toddler Costume

Other problem is when I washed it, it got all these fuzzy things all over it and the material almost seemed to change after being washed... I washed ir once and it looks like it has been worn and washed a million times, I hate stuff that does that. good thing we only needed it for one night.
The costume is cute, but I wouldn't buy another from the same company. I think next year I'll go to the Disney store I've heard good things about there and Target having cute costumes.I ordered this costume for my granddaughter who was 11 months old at Halloween. She looked great in it and it was perfect for her.

Happy Horse Rattle

I am so happy with this purchase, I sent the elephant one to a friend as a shower gift.
My only complaint is they sewed the tags into the neck. I cut them down as much as possible, but the stubs are still there. It isn't enough of an annoyance to lose any stars over though.we received this elephant rattle when our little one was born and bought it as a present for friends. It was one of the first toys our LO played with, as she could put her arm through the hole, and the she really seemed to enjoy the rattle. Very colorful, and also just great looking toy!
