Gund Halloween - 13" Woodsy Plush Gray Wolf
Buy Gund Halloween - 13" Woodsy Plush Gray Wolf Now
I got him as an accessory to my then 7 month old daughter's red riding hood costume and he is just great. He looks just like the big bad wolf stuffed animal should. He is a great size, soft, well made. My baby loves him and has slept with him just about every night since he arrived here :) This is a high quality little stuffed animal!Read Best Reviews of Gund Halloween - 13" Woodsy Plush Gray Wolf Here
Adorable! Woodsy is the perfect childrens gift. Very cuddly, good size, and very cute! I would recommend this toy to anyone.Bought the stuffed wolf to go with a Halloween costume. My 5-year old students loved the soft feel of the fur and the ability for the stuffed toy to sit up. So far, the wolf is durable enough to withstand 12 5-year old students man-handling it on a daily basis.Friday, July 4, 2014
Little Tikes High Back Toddler Swing
Buy Little Tikes High Back Toddler Swing Now
We bought this swing for a 20-month old toddler. We connected it to a Little Tikes swing set. It is the perfect height from the ground so that in the months ahead, her feet won't drag. The leg holes are wide enough for shoes to get in and out easily.She loves it! I bought an extra one to send to her daycare provider. A must have for toddlers!

I bought this swing to hang from our porch. It comes with pre-attached ropes that are not height-adjustable, so we had to get two pieces of chain to hang it at a safe level. Unfortunately, the nylon ropes that come with the swing have a tendency to twist against eachother so that the swing does not hang straight. It is pointed diagonally (this is not a problem of unevenness, so we can't slide the ropes through to fix the problem). I had hoped that the ropes would relax over time, but they haven't, and we just don't use the swing as much as we had planned. Otherwise I like the high back, large leg holes, and safety belt. I think I'll be replacing the ropes altogether.Want Little Tikes High Back Toddler Swing Discount?
I got this on-line since my local store said it was "out of season" and they didn't have any swings in stock. I liked itso much that I got back on line and got another one! It hooks right up to our swing set, and it is very sturdy. It's easy to get my kids in and out, and nothing to pinch their fingers in. My 2 year-old and 9 month-old both love it.

The interactive map is a cute idea, but it's hard to use. You have to push really hard on the surface for it to recognize it which was hard for my son and for me.Read Best Reviews of Kidz Delight My Discovery World, Blue Here

Yomiko Yomiko Bulldog by Russ
There is a pretty awful looking tag that comes out of the dogs neck which was easy to cut off, though it was designed to stay there.I got this for my daughter and her sisters steal it from her all the time. I should have bought 3. They just love cuddling with it and playing. it is very soft and even cuter in person than the picture

Buy Eeboo Spin Me a Rainbow Game Now
I bought this game for my 2 year old since she's been into rainbows lately and it seemed like a nice easy game that would be be interesting for her. She LOVES it! Her 4.5 year old sister will play it with her too so that's an added bonus. :-) It's very well made, sturdy, and stands up to some rough toddlers that have come over. :-) The shapes are all ones that my 2 year old knew pretty well already but it's helped to solidify them in her mind and within only a day or two she was able to tell me "indigo diamond" and "violet circle" without me having to remind her that they aren't just blue and purple. :-) It's also a great way to teach the kids about the rainbow and the order of the colors in the rainbow. It was well worth it and I would definitely buy it again!Gave this to my 3-yr-old niece for Christmas & she loves it! It's a perfect little game for color & shape recognition, & her 5-yr-old sister enjoys it as well. She hasn't quite mastered using the spinner, but that doesn't seem to detract at all from the fun! Definitely a great purchase!This game is a fun FIRST game for toddlers. My 3-year-old enjoys spinning and choosing the right shapes to fit his board. He also likes to just do all the game boards as puzzles instead of a game. My only real critique of the game is that the spinner is clear plastic so it is hard to see which shape has been spun. I think that even a child who just turned 2 could play...maybe with some help naming the shapes and colors.Monday, May 5, 2014
Little Tikes Discover Sounds Hammer
Buy Little Tikes Discover Sounds Hammer Now
My son loves to bang things to hear the noises it makes, but it wasn't always pleasant to us. I saw this hammer in the store and I put it in the cart immediately. He has loved this toy for a good long time now. If he gets into his banging moods I get his hammer and tell him to bang with it. It makes cute noises and is safe.Read Best Reviews of Little Tikes Discover Sounds Hammer Here
I got this for my son and he isn't able to pick it up still since the grip of it is too big. This isn't a small hammer but a pretty large one. I'm sure once he's much older, he will like it more but don't buy this product for a child under 18moThis is a great toy to keep in the car. It lights up and makes noises, but isn't too loud or obnoxious. And he can play with it just sitting in his car seat.Monday, April 28, 2014
Animal Planet 2-in-1 Backpack with Harness
We used this with my daughter when she was 18 mo. She had been walking for almost a year already but we wanted to make sure we didn't lose sight of her when we're at a mall or zoo. She loved it and even her older brother, who just turned 3 yo at the time, loved holding the other end so they would walk together. It was actually very cute.
However, when we tried to use this with my third child when he was 18 months, this was outright dangerous. He would constantly pull and if you don't give in and move with him, he would fall forward and land on his face! We simply had to keep him in a 5-point belted stroller even when he would have a meltdown. With kids like that, there really is no great solution (he's not easy at home either).
In short, if you have a calm child, this might be perfect for you. However, if your child is a runner, this type of leash will not work since it pulls him from the back. Maybe something that straps to the wrist would be better.

bought these for my twins and thank god i decided to try them out in the house first before outside! the tail (leash part) broke after probably 5 minutes and there's no way for me to fix it. the 2nd one also broke on the 2nd day in the house. not safe and i'm surprised they haven't been recalled. bottom line, i would never buy these again or recommend them to a friend!Read Best Reviews of Animal Planet 2-in-1 Backpack with Harness Here
I ordered this so that my 18 month old son would be safe when I take him out for walks. The first time I use it, my kid tried to run away, the harness ripped from the backpack and my kid actually fell on his face on the ground. For a safety harness I expected it to be of a high quality, especially where the harness connects to the backpack but I was so disappointed.Want Animal Planet 2-in-1 Backpack with Harness Discount?
We bought this for our recent vacation to help allow our 20-month old to walk or run around the airport but we could still keep her within arms reach.We used it, literally, for less than an hour before it fell apart at the seams. First the loop on the tail broke after just a few minutes. I figured I'd just stitch it up when we got to our destination, no biggie. Our flights were delayed several hours and by the time we boarded the first flight the whole pack had simply come apart. The stitching at the bottom came undone so that the legs, tail (leash), and body all separated.
Perhaps it was from a bad batch. We ordered it months before the trip and just opened the package in the car on the way to the airport so she hadn't played with it or used it prior.
We purchased another brand at a local store while on the trip and it has held together and been handy.

TY Beanie Baby - SMOOCH the Kisses Bear
Why did I need to buy another one? It wasn't any specific strong attachment that she had to the toy but there's something about the way it can sit up and move around that makes it her go-to stuffed animal for playing/pretending. I don't really see much of a need in reviewing a beanie baby because everyone by now knows what they are but for playtime I think it's a great toy.got this for valentines day for my daughter and she just love it, she dont go no where without it!!!

Tolo Toys Stacking Activity Shapes
As a stacker, they pretty much just love to knock it down right now. I has also helped our with son's crawling development...we will set it up across the room and he crawls to get to it.
The size and feel of the toy is great and this is a good learning toy as well with colors and shapes. Ther are many different versions of this type of toy out there and I am sure all are fine, but I would recomend this Tolo toy.Very good quality, has many ways how and what teach your child. Very sturdy and durable plastic, excellent colors. You have to be prepared to spend some time with the kid just playing and teaching colors and shapes.

Bobles Tumbling Elephant - Turquise
Buy Bobles Tumbling Elephant - Turquise Now
I hoped that my grandsons...aged 4 and 1...would love these. They love animals. They are active little boys so I was hoping they would love the ability to climb, crawl, and jump. The 4 yr. old created obstacle courses with this elephant and the other animals I ordered for them. My 1 yr. old took the 3 layered fish and promptly sat on it, then started rolling it around the room. Before the evening was over, he was standing on it. Both boys crawled over the animals, rearranged them, then crawled all over again. All the adults in the room wished we could do the same. They are strong enough for adults to sit on the sides. One relative wasn't surprised when she heard they were made in Denmark. She said the Danes are noted for having a unique sense of function and beauty.I guess I am going to be a grandma who spoils her grandsons, but I can see years of joyful, creative play with these products. I can't wait until more of the animals types shown on the Danish web site arrive in America.
Note: I purchased the Tumbling Elephant, the Tumbling Worm, the Tumbling Crocodile, the Tumbling Chick, the 3-layered & the 6 layered Fish.
All are colorful, lightweight, sturdy, and fun to see.

Wonderworld Mini Trailer
UPDATE: I have glued that piece over a dozen times now. Also, the back end piece that holds the dozer is no longer upright. That gave out a while ago. The boys love the toy and do not seem to notice.My son has been playing with this toy for about 6 months now and it's held up great. He bangs them around and they can take the beating. The magnet is really strong and needs a little force to pull it apart. Love toys from Wonderworld!

I made sure I ordered the older version of this toy. The new one has painted on windows, which makes it harder for little hands to grab. I LOVE Wonderworld toys and have a few of their toys, but I am disappointed to see that they are reducing their toy prices but on the sacrifice of quality by painting on windows in their wood vehicles now.Side note: I have the older version of the dump truck and it's still my son's fave. My son is not yet 18 months yet (he is 17 months) so perhaps this trailer is more complex for him at the moment since it has 3 different parts. Nonetheless, he plays with this on occasion and I haven't regretted it.

Green Toys Dump Truck, Pink
Some of the wheels get stuck a lot and don't spin, causing the plastic to scrape off the tire treads when pushed across the floor/ concrete. The truck is also smaller than I expected for the price. I do appreciate that this toy is made of recycled material, but I think for this price, the wheels should rotate more smoothly.
Aside from above, the plastic does seem very durable and I don't expect it to crack or break with rough use. It survived a toss down the carpeted basement stairs just fine.

My daughter and son both love it. It's definitely unique. I wish there were more girly boy toys like this!Overall toy is great. Well built and great for my daughter. We were suprised at the size of the toy. Only about 12-14" in overall length. We had expected it to be larger.It is to much money for the size that it is. Not happy with it at all only reason I keep it is because it is pink and can't find another one that is pink.Thursday, February 27, 2014

My little guy loves this and I don't have to worry about how it was made. It is soft, washable and fits perfectly on his carseat handle so he can play with it without it getting dropped or lost. It fits in his little hands easily too.This toy has proven to be a good find. It is organic, so I don't have to worry about it going into my baby's mouth. It is also versitile, in that it can go on the car seat or on baby's play mat as well as the stroller. It is baby finger friendly, in that there are many different places to grab. My baby also likes the fact that he can bring the toy to his face.It's soft and easy to place in different places as needed. Well made and cute and not toxic! Thank you.Monday, December 23, 2013
