Levels Of Discovery Stack Buddies Storage Unit Multi-Color

Levels Of Discovery Stack Buddies Storage Unit Multi-ColorThis looks smaller than the toy boxes but it's definetly better to get rid of the clutter and help your little one find his toys. You can categorize the toys and find them easier later. They get lost in toy chests, especially the little toys. My daughter's room is pretty small and I use it as a guest room too, I stacked them up when I need to open the sofa bed. It's also very good quality construction and stain. Very durable to every kind of toddler abuse!

I don't really think this is worth the $80 I spent on it. It chips and dents easily and the feet fall off the front exposing sharp pins. It is difficult to put the feet back on the front of the boxes without them coming loose again so I now leave them off so my kids don't poke themselves. It looks odd without the feet on the lion but it will have to look that way for safety reasons. If it was half the price I wouldn't recommend it either. It is cute to look at but that's about it. It doesn't hold much (we have little people cars in it and not much else.) It was cute for a short time, but not practical and not worth the price tag placed on it.

My First Disney Princess - Little Princess Tiana & Aurora

My First Disney Princess - Little Princess Tiana & AuroraRecommended ages shows 3 months and up. The bottles included are no bigger than a pushpin. Even my 2 year old started to put one in her mouth before I stopped her. The crowns also needed to come off since they are small too. The dolls in the picture on the box look a lot bigger than they actually are.

These are perfect for little fists to hold on to and our granddaughter doesn't leave home without them. Perfect for the diaper bag.

Iplay Lobster Tub Caddy

Iplay Lobster Tub CaddyVery cute toy caddy. The kids love it and it holds a nice amount of bath toys. The claws are an added bonus to play with! The only complaint is that the suction is not great. I little double sided tape in the suction cup works just fine to keep the bracket up.

This is a great alternative for the frog & Ladybug options of the same concept... however, the suction pads are poor. They don't stick well... often times sliding down the wall. BUT! BUT! My son LOVES this thing! Every since he was able to be spaciously aware of things he would look for it in the bath, now we use the "claws" for play at 6 months... soon the whole thing will be in the bath & the beach!

BeginAgain Earthworms - Green

BeginAgain Earthworms - GreenI asked for the BeginAgain Earthworms grab and twist toy for my son since he likes wood toys. This is a pretty durable toy, the earthworm segments move very nice and smoothly even after being played with pretty hard by my little guy. And it's cute! It's eco friendly; made from rubberwood. My son had a lot more fun playing catch with it than just twisting the segments; but that's what imaginations are for, right? We'll get lots of use out of this toy, from this generation to the next. Thumbs up from me!

Elmo Infant Plush Costume

Elmo Infant Plush Costume, Red, 12-18 MonthsThis Elmo costume was just what we were looking for. After exhausting all of our local options for costumes and only finding top half costumes of Elmo, we finally found this one from someone's recommendation 1 1/2 weeks prior to Halloween. Finally a full length Elmo! This item was shipped quickly and was received with several days to spare. Top quality and keeps the little ones warm on Halloween evening. We will definitely come here first to look for a costume next year.

This is a great costume my 15 month old daughter is 50th percentile for height and weight (and usually wears 18 month/2T clothing) and this fits her well. The costume is good quality and has a minimal amount of shedding. It also will keep your toddler warm on a cool Halloween night!

I bought this for my son for Halloween. It was perfect fit, true to size, and is very durable. It is heavier weight, than most costumes, I've seen. Which is perfect for Halloween in New Hampshire.

My 2 1/2 year old loved his costume! It's warm and durable. Very soft and cuddly. On occasion he refused to leave the house without putting it on. I definitely recommend this costume. The only drawback was the red pieces of fuzz that appeared on my light colored carpet. This costume is fitted enough that aside from form fitting pajamas (top and bottom), you don't really need to wear anything underneath.

I originally ordered the 2T for my 2yr old grandson, but it turned out too small. Re-ordered the next size up, 3T-4T, and it fit fine. Everyone thought he was adorable and the outfit kept him warm while they were out and about that evening.

Chicco Dance Walker Activity Center

Chicco Dance Walker Activity Center, Sea DreamsThis walker is an wonderful and sturdy product and we are really happy we bought it. We had originally bought a safety 1st walker which was pretty flimsy and the music was way to loud with no way to adjust the the volume level. This one not only has two settings for volume it also plays a variety of other sounds and songs and it even has a little locking storage tray for you to plug in your mp3 player if you don't like the music the walker is playing. While the mp3 player is on, the lights on the walker will continue to shine when your baby hits the buttons which is and added plus to keep your baby from being bored (our baby get's bored easily)

I would absolutely recommend this walker to anybody who is looking for a nice walker. It is spendy, but if you compare the quality of this one to others, you know why it's so expensive. And I figured, that if I buy nice brands now, I will hopefully get a good use out of them and have a better chance of selling them later on when my child has grown out of it.

My pediatric developmentalist would have a fit (walkers always a no-no!), but my 7 month-old son likes this walker. He seems happy to have a little independent movement and he likes the toys and sounds on the front of the walker. I don't keep him in there long, I feel like 15-20 minutes is the maximum. Sometimes he doesn't even stay in it that long because this is a baby that likes to be held. A lot. :) But it is a good alternative to the Jumperoo and Exersaucer (also no-nos according to the specialist, but she has no children).

Baby loves it. Keeps her happy while we cook, eat breakfast, etc. Not sure how much of her enjoyment is based on the fancy beeps and boops, but whatever. She loves it, we think it's cute, and there's no way that thing's tipping over.

Pink Whisper Ride Buggy

Pink Whisper Ride BuggyI purchased this as a gift for a friend's 2 year old daughter's birthday. The Mom was able to easily put it together by herself in less than an hour (we had to separate her into a different from from the kids so she could put it together as they were absolutely crazy about playing on it right away!).

I use to have one of the original push buggy's from step2 for my son and cannot believe the wonderful improvements!!!

The wheels are half the size and QUIET! (the buggy we had were huge plastic ones like on the little tikes cozy coupe)

There is storage space! (I think the last ones that came out before this had storage too)

EXTRA cup holders the adult cup holder is great for drinks is a more tall cup so it doesn't easily fall out (some sippy cups are too tall for the kid's cup holders)

The seat is bigger! Before it would snuggly fit 1 toddler, now it actually fit TWO toddlers in it (a 2 & a 2 1/2 year old) in it at the same time!

Floor board is open before it would have a middle slat so the feet would be placed on either side. This one is completely open like riding in a power wheels car.

Extra food space! Instead of just setting your feet directly on the floorboard, there's room to stretch out as if there were pedals in a power wheels car so a longer legged toddler or older child can still fit.

The handle tucks under, as description states, but it's also longer and easier to push it seems. Before you had to lean forward a bit, yet not with this one!

My friend (and her daughter) were beyond thrilled to have this as a birthday gift!! And arriving in pink made it all the more perfect :-D

My son (and I) like it so much, we had to order him the same one in blue even though he outgrew his older push buggy almost a year ago! This one will last him for YEARS I'm sure!

Cute Buggy!!! My daughter just loves her new car. With the weather finally starting to break she can drive in style in the neighborhood. The wheels are very smooth and quiet. The buggy is very easy to maneuver with a single hand. It even has mini storage space under the hood to hold a cell phone or house keys. Love it!!!

We can not get the steering wheel to stay on. Its frustrating because our toddler is always pulling it out....

Want Pink Whisper Ride Buggy Discount?

This car is great, my daughter loves it and it is great for pushing around the neighborhood, My daughter is 13months and 30" tall and fits perfect and will still have room to grow. That being said, my daughter's height is long torso, short legs (like me), so if your child has long legs they might outgrow it sooner. After reading many reviews on this, I found the two biggest complaints were on the assembly itself and on the screw that holds the handle onto the car. Firstly, assembly is a little bit of a pain but most of that pain is in the wheel assembly. Once you get past that, the rest is pretty easy. Second, the screw that attaches the handle is a pain. It does in fact stick out and if your child were to lean against it, it would be uncomfortable. My solution was this, I used a 1/2' drill bit to make the whole a little bit bigger (allowing the plastic cover on the screw to fit into it). With the bigger whole I was able to screw the screw in deeper. Once the screw couldn't screw any more (because it is recessed and the car seat back gets in the way) I used a hammer to hammer it flush. This completely worked and did not mess up the integrity at all. If you want it flush, this is the best way to do it (this will make more sense when you are actually assembling it).

I highly recommend this car, it is great fun!

Power Wheels Barbie Lil' Quad

Power Wheels Barbie Lil' QuadMy 2 year old daughter loves this. She rides it all over. Very strong toy. Has been dropped down the stairs on accident and still goes. Withstands weight of older kids that shouldn't be riding it too. My son has one of these too (the boy version) that is over 2 years old and it still works, although battery doesn't hold a charge very well anymore. We have taken that one camping in the sand and dirt and it did very well.

I bought this jeep for my 16 month old granddaughter for Christmas and she loves it. She jumped right on it, and at first when she pressed the button to go forward it jerked forward to quickly and scared her. I thought oh well, come spring time she'll get use to it. All of a sudden she jumps back on and took off down the hallway. She has to learn to steer it straight, but that will come in time. Grandpa says its easy to put together. Its durable and I think it will last a long time.

I bought this for my daughter's 2nd b-day. It is super cute, durable, and just the right size for her; however, she road it for about five minutes and now won't get on it. I think because she kept pushing the "on" switch versus holding it in the "on" position and it would jerk her back and forth that it may have scared her. She may be a little young for this now but I think in a few months she will like it. Fisher-Price Power Wheels Toddler Series Girl's Lil Quad Refresh

We bought this item for our one year old and she absolutely loves it. She loves to sit and play on it all the time now. I would definitely recommend this item to anyone interested in purchasing. Easy to assemble, sturdy, and most important of all our kid really enjoys this toy. Only thing I would recommend is that you take time when applying the stickers as they have a tendency to "ripple" when applying to the contoured surfaces.

Planet Toys Planet Earth Large Plush Animals with unseen footage DVD Assortment - Giant Panda

Planet Toys Planet Earth Large Plush Animals with unseen footage DVD Assortment - Giant PandaWe get our children a stuffed animal from TRU each year for Christmas. Last year we waited until the last minute, and the selection of "nicer" stuffed animals was horrible. Wandering around the store, we found these. Son (6 yr) got a panda and daughter (8 yr) got a polar bear. They both LOVE them! They have watched the BBC documentary that came with the toys several times, and proceeded to repeat many facts to me about each bear. My son sleeps w/ his panda every night w/out fail, therefore it has been machine washed several times in the last 6 months and has held up just fine.

This toy is rated by the manufacturer for 2 and up. It contains a medium sized stuffed panda and a 22 minute DVD documentary. My 3 1/2 year old selected this item as a treat. We were both disappointed. The stuffed panda is of moderate quality and is certainly not worth even $15. The documentary on the DVD was not appropriate for this age group. It is an old BBC documentary on pandas that has that typical monotone narrator voice. That would have been fine except topics covered include mating, inbreeding, poachers, and how when twins are born one typically dies because the mother will not nurse them. It was a very boring video for my daughter but even she started asking questions that I would have preferred not to answer at 3 1/2. I would highly recommend selecting a higher quality stuffed panda with the money and skipping the DVD.

Lil Character Infant Skunk Costume

Lil Character Infant Skunk Costume, Black/White/Pink, 6-12 MonthsThis suit was very well made. It was nice and warm for my 18 mon old. he looked so cute.I was disappointed that there wasnt a stripe going down his back and the ears are a lil too big. a few people thought he was a lamb or kitty cat and i think if there was a stripe, it would have been more obvious he was a skunk. All in all, still very cute and confortable for my lil guy.

I guess this is what you expect from a children's costume. Cheap material. The feet would not stay on. He looked cute but he only wore it for about 20 minutes.

This little skunk costume is so cute! The head piece was too big so we did have to safety pin it so it was a little bit tighter so our daughter could see, but she did look super cute in it and it was a fun costume for her first Halloween!

I ordered this costume for my 1-year-old daughter. She usually wears 12 month clothes or bigger. However, the 6-12 month size works perfectly. It is easy to put on and has easy access for diaper changes. The most convenient part is that the feet are not connected to the rest of the costume and are big enough to wear over shoes. The quality does not look or feel cheap. Such a great costume for my little stinker!

I ordered this costume for my 19 month old son, size was true but when i put it on him I was disappointed to see that the white stripe doesn't even run all the way down the back of him. I know the back of the costume isn't the "main" part but from the front he kinda just looked like a black and white cat or dog! It seemed to be of good quality and warm though I returned it to pick out a different costume.

Toy Story - Alien Classic Infant Costume

Disguise Toy Story AlienIt says 12 to 18 months but it is definetely for a small 12 month old. We recevied this right before Halloween so we didn't have a choice and had to use it. Our baby was closer to 18 months old and average in size, way too small! The head thing was made for an adult and somehow got included in the baby costume. Not kidding on the size, it literally fit me, the parent. We had to pin it to the costume to keep it on. Not sure who this was designed for but it wasn't a baby between 12 to 18 months.

Great costume that bring's the lol's at the expense of your kid and future embarrassment through family photos during family/friend gatherings. Recommended.

This costume was so adorable on my 7 1/2 month old. Easy to put on and he could crawl around in it with ease. The reason for not getting a full five stars is because the head of the costume is huge. It did not stay in place, large enough for an adult to wear. Who makes an infant costume with a head as big as this? But, the overall costume was a hit.

NASA Jr. Astronaut Suit (Orange) Infant Costume

Jr. Astronaut Suit, size 6 to 12 MonthsMy son wore this costume for his first Halloween. We really enjoyed it.. we wished it came in more sizes it says 6-12 months and that is probably prefect for a smaller child. My son was wearing 12 month clothes at the time he was 11 months old so we had to cut the feet out of this suit to make it work. That was our own fault though. The material was nice and soft it was warm enough that we didn't have to worry about him getting cold. It was also very easy to put on and take off for diaper changes.

We just bought this for my son who is 6 months old-he's 90th percentile height and 75th weight--he JUST fits into it-it's actually pretty tight-so beware if you have a bigger child get the 18 months toddler version. it's a jumpsuit (my son as the size 2T) and it's awesome but this one is cuter for a baby-it's just a little on the smaller size!

This costume is super cute! The material for the costume we received was not the fleece as described or pictured, but was still very soft and light weight. The elastic belt helps the costume work for smaller and skinnier kiddos like my little man. We noticed one small flaw with one of the patches where the edging was somehow cut, but not enough of an issue to return it. Overall, very happy with the purchase.

Alex Tub Joy Ocean Pinwheel

Alex Tub Joy Ocean PinwheelIt's a cute toy -the child can pour water into either of the two cups at the top and the water will spin three very small dials on its way down to the base that has drain holes for futher fascination watching the water spill into the tub. However, the suction cups are very thin and don't stay attached to the wall very well. Still, when it is up, my 2 year old nephew enjoys pouring water into it. The toy came with two small cups the same size as the opening spouts but we don't use those. He'll fill an empty dish soap container or a measuring cup and dump the water into the spouts -longer-lasting action and more interesting that way.

Cute toy, but this seems very cheaply made. Was looking for a better quality bath toy, but didn't find much. This is ok.

Buy Alex Tub Joy Ocean Pinwheel Now

My 6 month old son loves bath time so I was looking for something different than the little plastic bath squirties he plays with all the time. I'ts hard to find real bath toys for so young so I went with this. It suction cups to the wall and the colors are cute and bright. One of my main problems with it is that the middle wheel (the one with the starfish) doesn't spin. I don't know if mine is just defected or if that's how it's supposed to be. It's really not a big deal but for some reason it bothers me! Also, when the water comes out the bottom instead of coming out like a shower head (through each hole) it all goes together and comes out as one stream. Just something else I noticed. Overall it is cute though and my son does like to look at it for a minute. Maybe when hes older and can pour the water in himself he'll like it more :)

Chicco 4-in-1 Ride-On Car, Pink

Chicco 4-in-1 Ride-On Car, PinkThis looks to be a good product. Our 6 month old daughter likes it and our 14 month old nephew loves it. It is all plastic and hopefully it will stand up to the abuse that kids can give to the toys. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because it looks like it will last for years, but only time will tell.

Corolle Mon Premier Calin Naima Baby Doll

Corolle Mon Premier Calin Naima Baby DollFinally, a doll that represents a baby of african decent by more than just color! Naima is beautiful, with her rich dark skin and her sweet tongue-y grin, she has larger lips than the other Calin dolls, and a flat, wide nose. It doesn't just stop there, take off her headband and look closely at her hair line and she has tiny little curls molded into the plastic.

Unfortunately like another reviewer mentioned, she does seem to be a little light on the stuffing. She is our fifth calin doll and she is by far the most floppy. When I get a chance I will be slipping the stitches on her back and stuffing some more fiberfill into her. I purchased this one because it was on sale, I wanted the one in the red outfit, though. This outfit did turn out to be cuter in real life.

I bought this doll for my daughters first birthday. She has another Corolle doll that she loves but I wanted to get her a dark skinned baby to love as well. Every time I would bring the picture up on the comuter she got so excited! Once we got it she was so happy to see the baby in person! It is a beautiful doll. I sort of wish it did not look like she was sticking her tongue out but that is not too big of a deal. I am sure this baby will be well loved by my daughter!

Buy Corolle Mon Premier Calin Naima Baby Doll Now

I bought this doll to replace the one my daughter lost. She loved it so much so we got the exact same doll she had before, but it seems lighter than her old one like it has less stuffing in it and her head is very loose and turns just with gravity. Her old one didn't do that. These things give me the feeling it is not as well made as the older version we had. I could be wrong though. If we hadn't had the older version, we would think this one was great.

Read Best Reviews of Corolle Mon Premier Calin Naima Baby Doll Here

we already own a Caucasian 'premier calin' corolle, and I thought it would be fun for my tot to have one of another race. I can't understand the decline in quality. Doll can't sit up unless head is in its lap. Clothes are of thinner material than other doll's.

Sending it back! I should have listened to other reviews. I am going to try buying the 'earlier model' of Naima thru ebay and see if it's better quality.

*****************

OK, so I should have updated. I did try to send the doll back, but the company, I think called Kaplan, refused to have it back and insisted on giving a refund, tho I told them it wasn't of unacceptable, merely disappointing quality. no, they said, have the money back and don't return the doll. So we kept it. Well, it's true that it's floppy with thin clothes. But i have to tell you that my daughter LOVES the doll, and I feel a bit weird about that, given that we ended up with it as a freebie! she invents stories about this doll all the time, took it to Europe (and she was only allowed to take one doll with her) etc etc. In general, she spends more time with her, and thinking about her, than with the Caucasian one. As for her flopping over, she just accepts that. And as for her clothes, my daughter prefers to strip the clothes off her dolls anyway, so she never has her clothed, and she doesn't even notice that. So there we have it! I can't say whether I'd buy another , say, as a gift, but clearly the doll has brought a lot of pleasure to my kid.

Want Corolle Mon Premier Calin Naima Baby Doll Discount?

I bought this for my 2 year old daughter. Here are some pros and cons...

PROS:

Price We have more expensive Corolle dolls, but we caught this one on sale.

Black doll It's hard to find a quality doll that is not white. There just aren't as many options out there.

Portable Unlike the 14 inch Bebe Charmeur, my daughter can carry this one around comfortably in her arms.

Pretty She is prettier in person than she looks on the web. We are pleased.

CONS:

Stuffing It IS light on stuffing, so she is floppier than the Charmeur doll. My daughter doesn't notice or care, of course.

Neck You can feel a neck bar through the stuffing. The Charmeur doll doesn't have this. I think it's weird.

Hair The hair color is airbrushed on. I would have preferred some painted hair, but maybe I am expecting too much.

For what we paid of her, I am totally satisfied. This is a good doll for a young child.

UPDATE: I did actually open her up and add some stuffing, which gives her a much better weight and feel. She was just too floppy. It only took 5 minutes to do this, but really, you don't expect to have to do this with a Corolle doll.
