Zoë b Organic Biodegradable Beach Toys, 18 Months
Buy Zoë b Organic Biodegradable Beach Toys, 18 Months Now
These biodegradable beach toys are awesome! When I received them, I was so impressed by how durable they feel and by the unique and functional design. All the parts fit inside the cool box with built-in handles and a sifter/lid. AND they've held up fine in the trunk of my car (which tends to be very hot and very messy). My kids loved the shovel and cup, sized just for them. And my oldest had a great time sifting the sand and finding little shells.I love that these are made from corn (not petroleum) in the USA. And I have piece of mind that if these happen to get left at the beach, they'll biodegrade and not pollute the ocean. But, based on experience, I don't think my kids would ever leave them behind. Great product!

This was a very cute little box but I would have liked it better if it was just a little deeper and if the lid snapped on instead of just being placed over top. The scoop was amazing for my little guy and he loved the cups as well. Unfortunately, my husband lost the scoop our first day on the beach so I can rest knowing it will biodegrade in the ocean. This meant that I had to buy a second one as my little one loved the scoop better than any shovel. I only wish I could buy extra cups and scoops separately so I could buy more without having to buy the whole set because the box was not used too much. He did like the lid as a sifter though!Want Zoë b Organic Biodegradable Beach Toys, 18 Months Discount?
I received this set from Zoe B and I have loved it! We are going to the beach in the next few weeks and I cannot wait to try them out. My 3 year old has been playing with it in her sand/water table and loves it. It is perfectly sized for little hands and the scoop is nice & deep and easy to handle. Wonderful product and of course, I love that it is good for our environment and made in the USA.Sunday, April 20, 2014

Little Mommy Bedtime Baby - African American
Buy Little Mommy Bedtime Baby - African American Now
I bought this for my assistant's little girl (age 2 or 3). I had a hard time finding an African American doll that I liked, but when I saw the picture of this one, I was thrilled. When I received the doll, I was beyond thrilled! The picture did not do it justice. Most dolls in this price range are OK, but this doll was a lot more than just OK. She has the sweetest face. I wanted to pull her out of the box and play with her myself she was just so sweet, soft and lovable. Her toy lamb is cute too. Her blanket was sooo soft and her body was soft as well. As an added benefit her PJ's glow in the dark she has a little light and it plays lullabys. Even the box it came in was adorable-like a little crib. Mattel did this one right!Read Best Reviews of Little Mommy Bedtime Baby - African American Here

Melissa & Doug Jumbo Knob Wooden Farm Puzzle
Buy Melissa & Doug Jumbo Knob Wooden Farm Puzzle Now
I love this puzzle! It's beautiful, the pieces fit perfectly, and it is easy for my daughter to figure out. The large knobs make the pieces easy to grasp, and the fact that the picture is painted on the piece and on the board makes it easy to match the puzzle pieces. My daughter plays with it all the time, and it's one of her favorite puzzles. The pieces are big too, so they're easy to keep track of, unlike smaller puzzle pieces that get lost or sucked up in the vacuum.The only thing I found is that it is important to watch your child play with the puzzle until they're out of the "gnawing" stage. My daughter gnawed off the top picture of the chicken and sheep so that makes me sad since the painting is done by hand, and the pictures are so nice. So now I can only let her play with it supervised, until she stops gnawing everything in sight.

My daughter (13 months) received this toy as a present and really loved playing with it. It's very educational and I loved the wood structure of it. But in just a couple of days the back of the main wood frame started peeling leaving raw edges on the surface and sides. Just what you would need to get a splinter. So now we don't use the board any more. But my daughter still continues to play with the removable pieces.Want Melissa & Doug Jumbo Knob Wooden Farm Puzzle Discount?
The idea of this puzzle is wonderful. However it is made incredibly poorly. The edges of the animals and farmer are rough and shed endless wood debris. I have tried wiping the pieces down with a damp cloth, but the edges keep shedding.I would love to find a puzzle made out of solid wood and not the thousand layers of plywood that composes this product. It's simply annoying and messy, do not spend any money on this toy!

Redmon Fun and Fitness Exercise Equipment for Kids
The treadmill is very sturdy and it took very little time for our daughter to get the hang of it. Heck, even the 1 year old figured out how to get a few steps in and he has been walking for less than 2 weeks.I work with preschool children with special needs and bought this to meet the needs of a student who likes to run. From the first day, all of my students wanted to get on it and check it out. It has been wonderful for not only the students I originally bought it for, but I have a number of students who request it on a regular basis to help calm their bodies. This was so much better than I could ever have imagined and the quality is outstanding.

I bought this for my nephew(he is almost 4) for Christmas. He likes to try and workout with me, so I thought he would like this. It was the first thing he ran to Christmas morning. I agree with the review on using this for children 5 years or younger(maybe 6).Read Best Reviews of Redmon Fun and Fitness Exercise Equipment for Kids Here
This is a great little manual treadmill for kids (of appropriate age)! It is solidly made of metal, and I've been very impressed. I had one little "glitch" and that was that one of the only plastic pieces broke (the belt adjuster) but I was able to fix that by running to the hardware store and getting a washer to hold the tension screw... so far, so good... and I placed the plastic cap back on, so it looks like nothing ever happened.As far as other reviewers with the smell... I believe that is just ridiculous. *Of course* there is a smell at first, it would be silly of anyone to expect it not to! It has metal gears and and belt that moves, it HAS to have a lubricant put on the internal gears, or it would rust and fall apart (since it is made of SOLID metal gears and welded metal tubes!). It would be useful to adults considering purchasing this to use some common sense, if your family can't tolerate smells for a few days, put it in the garage or a room with open windows. We put it in the garage for about 3 days and completely got rid of any odors for us before we brought it inside... but it was definitely the smell of gear lubricant (if you've ever smelled it, you know EXACTLY what it is --no mystery here).
As for some reviewers stating that it's not safe, I'd have to say their child must have been too young (be it physically or mentally). All children progress at their own pace, but I can say this, I own an adult treadmill, and my child was constantly trying to walk/run on it... to the point that he would get on and manually "make" it run, (yes, he is that strong, lol!) even though it was unplugged. Now that is unsafe, and this little treadmill fixed that problem completely.
Now he knows he has his own treadmill, I explained to him that I weight too much to walk on his, and he doesn't weigh enough to walk on mine --and he completely understood. ;) It's working out great, and WE are working out together!!! It's awesome to look over and see your little boy walking with you!

Kringelring Clutching toy
*UPDATE* 4/2011
I contacted the company and informed them of the situation. They not only sent the replacement I requested(Candy Clutching Toy), but also an extra toy (Dwarf Clutching Toy), and a prepaid envelope to return the Kringelring. I was extremely satisfied with the customer service, and the way they handled this situation.This was the first toy I bought my son. We gave it to him as soon as he started showing the ability to grasp. This toy was used as a grasping toy and a rattle. When the infant is so young, he likes to just look at his hand holding something and he looks at the colors and notices that the blue rings move around. It makes a nice sound when it is shaken. It's not too heavy and it is easy to hold.
I know it sounds boring, but my son loved this ring!
I would recommend getting one for a newborn and just waiting until they start showing signs of reaching out for things and trying to touch or grab things.
The product description recommends for 6 months to 2 years. I would say 1 month to 1 year.
The toy is very well made. Those colored bits are all strung together with an elastic cord so the colored part of the ring is pliable and bends.
My son did eventually mouth and gnaw on the ring when he was older. It's a great toy and would also make a nice gift.

I was very excited to buy this toy for my teething 8-month-old daughter as opposed to a plastic teether. But she doesn't seem to be as excited about it as I was. She doesn't really try to teethe on it very much. She basically picks it up and shakes it around, then throws it. I do very much like the quality of this toy it seems like it will last for years and years. I will definitely buy Haba toys again for her.Fun, safe, non-toxic, made in Germany. Great for grasping, mouthing, even shaking like a rattle. We were worried he might get pinched between the colored segments, but somehow it just doesn't create a a hazard at all.For some reason, this toy captivates our daughter she does mouth it a lot (hence I am glad it is non toxic as I think every infant toy should be!) but she also just likes to turn it over in her hands, look at the colors, play with the rings. Who would have thought something so simple would be so intriguing but it works!Monday, November 11, 2013

Fisher-Price Infant to Toddler Swing with Sunshield
But the sunshield is a joke. The sun always hit her no matter what time of the day. I recomend to put it where there is shade.Hi, I received this swing on time and as usual Amazon's service was great, however, some information on the site is misleading, it says Manufacturer's Recommeded Age is 9 months to 5 years... on the actual product it saysAges: 6-36 months! I am very disappointed since I bought it for a 3 year old who I thought would be able to use it for the next 2 years... VERY DISAPPOINTED!!!

My baby loves this cute swing. we have it hanging in our front yard under our big shade tree and he gets in it almost every day, sometimes even falling asleep in it!!Want Fisher-Price Infant to Toddler Swing with Sunshield Discount?
Decent overall but I wouldn't purchase it again. I was better off going to Wal Mart or Toys R Us for this purchase. The swing sets crooked because the ropes are barely adjustable and the tray is VERY difficult to lift to remove/input your child. The sun shade is barely that. It shades absolutely nothing, I have to lay a blanket over it to shield my baby from the sun (we live in AZ).Tuesday, October 22, 2013

My son wore this costume when he was 4 months old. He is small for his age, but this fit him well enough (and of course had plenty of room for those bigger babies). Everyone was nothing but smiles when they saw him. It is a very cute costume!It was definitely too large for my toddler but we still made it work. He looked super cute and received complements.Friday, October 18, 2013

I bought this for my Grandson's 3rd birthday. He has down syndrome and I hoped this would help with his motor skills. He hasn't quite gotten the concept of ROLLING the ball, but he likes to help set up the pins and throw the ball at them. The pins are beautiful, bright colors.The bowling set was lovely.It is very colorful,sturdy and will give hours of fun play.My granddaughter loved it!Just right for little hands too!they stand well and most importantly my toddler loves it. I have fun playing with her. I set it up and she knocks it down and she gets such kick out of it. When she's in bath time she can use it as a bath toy as well!
