This is such a gorgeous product! We called it Flash, named after a local goat who looks exactly the same! Thanks for the lovely goat.My grandson liked Billy. He wanted a real baby goat, so this little served the purpose. He sleeps with it.My granddaughter loves animals. She needed a goat to add to her farm animal collection. This little goat was perfect. It is big enough to enjoy but small enough to not overwhelm.Monday, June 23, 2014
Little Tikes First Slide
Buy Little Tikes First Slide Now
He loves it and plays everyday. We've had it for almost 2 months. I almost went with the shorter one, but am glad I didn't, since this is the perfect height. The thing snaps together in 60 seconds or less. It isn't prone to tipping, since the legs are wider than appear on the picture. No sharp edges to catch or cut. The plastic is extra thick, so I can't imagine "ever" wearing it out or cracking it. I should've gotten it for him a year ago.This product arrived on time and in good condition. It took all of 5 minutes to attach the ladder and the handles. I ordered this for my 18 month old granddaughter...and her 6 year old sister. Both of them love it and it is sturdy enough for the 6 year old and easy enough to climb for the 18 month old. Both of the girls have enjoyed this for four days straight. I would use this indoors more than out because they land pretty hard at the bottom until they are older. But I would definitely buy this again.It's not horrible, but it is a bit flimsier than little tikes outdoor toys usually are. Made with a different plastic (more like a toy truck than a normal outdoor toy) that is also not textured so the slide is a little grippy on skin or rubber (like the soles on shoes), and the plastic scratches easily which is more nocticable bc of the lack of texture. Our other little tikes items are all made with a thicker plastic that has a very light ( not really noticeable until you don't have it) matte texture so scratches go unnoticed and bottoms slide smoothly down.Tuesday, June 17, 2014

LeapFrog LeapStart Learning Gym
Buy LeapFrog LeapStart Learning Gym Now
All in all I really like this toy... However, I feel that it is for older babies (i.e. 7-8 months).The whole look of the toy is great... the spinning globe is wonderful. I haven't used it in infant mode but mostly because my son hates being on his back. I have it in sit-up mode but he's too young to sit on his own so the only way he really gets to play with the toy is by my bracing him while he stands (which isn't as bad as it sounds).
I have to say I really love the fact that approaches different languages in a fun, interesting way both through `abc's' and music.
It plays great music and generally I love Leapfrog toys and I appreciate this one I just can't wait to see how he responds to the toy when he's a little older.Great idea on educational front but it looks like Leapstart failed to do some testing of the product on real babies. My daughter is almost 6moths old and she can't reach any of the controls except for the moving mobile! And this is branded as a "Birth +" toy?! We might have to put this away until she's either bigger or until she can sit upright on her own and use it in sitting position. Hopefully the sit-up position is better designed so she can reach the controls on her own. We'll see. PS: I just read reviews of my First Touch Leap Pad for 6months+ and it looks like the product is not age appropriate either. Very disappointing, Leapstart!This learning gym is awesome! I love that it's versatile enough so my baby can use it now, at 3 months, and continue to use it as he grows and learns to sit up. My son is a cranky baby because he has acid reflux and this is one of the few "toys" he has that he thoroughly enjoys!! He spends lots of time on the floor kicking his legs and arms about, chatting and smiling away at the blinking lights. He loves the music and really enjoys watching the spinning globe. I've read reviews of this toy with parents complaining that it's no good for an infant because they can't reach the buttons and such, but if you just invest the time in your child and help them play with it (spin the globe for them, push the buttons, etc) you will see their little faces light up with pure joy. I highly recommend this product!!!

B. Hellophone - Sea/Pattern
Buy B. Hellophone - Sea/Pattern Now
It's a fun little toy, but it lasts for as long as baby's attention span is going.My 10 month old was interested in it initially, as a novelty the goal was to get him away from our cellphones, but that didn't pen out. The toy phone gets cast aside once the real one is spotted...
Nice feature ability to record one personal message; my baby does smile everytime I press that button
Con the two pre-recorded messages get on one's nerve very quickly (there's something about the female voice that just gives everyone around a toothache), and there's no way to record over it. Unfortunately, these recordings are triggered by one of the 2 big buttons, so we get to hear it A LOT.
BPA-free is a huge plus;
Not much of educational aspect, maybe not yet.Bought this for my 1 year old great-grandson. He is thrilled with it, as are his parents. They leave a message for him before they go to work, and he can then hear mom or dad talking to him on his own phone. The best part is, when they are on the phone, he can grab his own phone and have someone actually talking to him. Love it!We keep this phone in our toddlers diaper bag.. He loves playing w/it while we are out at restaurants. Loud enough for him to hear, but not too loud for being out in public.

I chose this doll because it is machine washable. Many are not. It is my granddaughter's favorite "lovey". I wish, however, that it was not made in China......Read Best Reviews of Baby Dolls: My First Doll, Hailey by Kids Preferred Here
My mom bought this doll for my daughter when she was first born and 2 1/2 years later she still cannot go anywhere without it! I love that the doll is soft and well made, so I never worried about putting it in the crib with my daughter, and she just simply loves it. We have to bring it everywhere we go and of course it has to go to bed with her each night too. After over two years of being carried everywhere (and washed multiple times) the original baby was starting to get pretty limp and worn so I purchased a backup. Good thing because her father took her to the circus last weekend and lost the original! Not sure how I would have made it through if I hadn't had backup baby!She got several plush dolls when she was born, but this one is the only one that stuck as a "lovey" and is definitely her go to comfort toy. I love how my daughter trys to mother "baby." She talks to her and explains things to her. She tells her not to worry if she hears a noise and if she drops her she picks her up, hugs her and asks her if she's ok. Definitely a winner in my little girls eyes, and in mine as well due to the quality!
Want Baby Dolls: My First Doll, Hailey by Kids Preferred Discount?
My daughter is 2 1/2, and she carries this doll with her everywhere. She sleeps with it every night, and treats her as if she's another sister. After a year and a half of non stop playing, and washing, the doll started to show wear, and started to get some holes (which would be normal for the amount of play time the doll gets). My mother found the same doll at the store, so we switched out the old one for the new one. Dolly went into the washer dirty, and came out brand new :) The only difference in the dolls are the bottom of the feet. The first doll had white on the bottom with dots on it, the second one did not. The one with a smooth bottom has started to show wear much quicker than the one with the dots.Tuesday, May 13, 2014

Where's My Bone Soft Activity Book by Manhattan Toy
Parents should use this item with caution because I cannot imagine what chemical is making the materials in this book smell so awful. I seriously feel like throwing it away just to be safe.
Considering how babies put everything in their mouth I would be careful.My nine-month-old son loves this book. He enjoyes not only "looking" for the bone but also playing with it. He loves squeaking the dog's nose, lifting the ballon and the dog's mouth. With puffy clouds and other fun things to touch, it's great for tactile development. It's a book he can play with without me reading it to him. The story isn't much but it's lots of fun to play with. It's such a great book I'm buying more to give to friends.

My son is too young to truly enjoy this (3 months old) but he is just now learning to touch stuff, and has given it a little exploratory touch. But I am impressed by its sturdy "handmade" feel that I think I enjoy more than he does, at this point. I can imagine lots of fun games we can play where I hide the bone somewhere and he goes through the pages looking for it. He'll get there soon enough--he already knows how to turn pages with his feet!Read Best Reviews of Where's My Bone Soft Activity Book by Manhattan Toy Here
We received Where's My Bone when my son was 10 months old and it was almost an instant hit. He may have been a little young at first, but we still had fun. I think learning and recognizing the pages so they became familiar increased his enjoyment, and by one year this was a favorite game that he wanted to play over and over. The pages have different pockets for hiding the bone (in the fish tank, under the ball, etc.), and there are some textures as well (fluffy fabric cloud, plastic "glass" for the tank). I also use it for color recognition (Which fish is red? Yellow?). Although he's long since figured out that he can follow the string to find the bone, he still brings this book to me for us to play with (he's now 22 months), and will now hide the bone himself for us to find. This has been one of his very favorite toys for a long time!Want Where's My Bone Soft Activity Book by Manhattan Toy Discount?
We got this book together with the bee and the flower book from Manhattan toys. When our son was younger, he didn't care much for these books, but now that he's over 2 and knows his colours, this is much more fun for him. He loves to poke the bone in the various slots on the pages, like the car, water and so on. He also likes to "read" this book to his baby sister. The quality of the book is very good.Monday, March 17, 2014
Boon Creatures Interchangeable Bath Toy Cup Set
Buy Boon Creatures Interchangeable Bath Toy Cup Set Now
I ordered these in my quest for safer bath toys. They don't snap together so creating different animals doesn't really happen. My son already had larger pouring cups so these don't get used much at all. I would have sent them back if my partner hadn't already thrown away the box.Read Best Reviews of Boon Creatures Interchangeable Bath Toy Cup Set Here
These toys are very cute, but other than that, they've been a big disappointment. The tops and bottoms don't stick together, which pretty much makes these useless. Lucky for Boon, my kids figured out that they make pretty decent pouring toys (since some of the tops have different hole configurations). Otherwise, I would have given these one star instead of two.Want Boon Creatures Interchangeable Bath Toy Cup Set Discount?
I really love the design of Boon's products but this one definitely missed the mark. I wanted the cups to snap together and they don't. So you can kind of set them up on the edge of the bathtub and if NO ONE touches them then they stay together but that's not much fun. So like the others said they are basically just cups with holes. I wouldn't recommend them.Saturday, March 15, 2014

my son really loved this stuffed animal, got quite attached very quickly, so the fact that it no longer works is just so very disappointing.
Buy Gund Spunky Motion 8" Pink Musical Now
We got a Spunky as a gift for my daughter when she was a baby. Spunky is very soft and plays a lovely, comforting song. Since Spunky 1, we have purchased 4 more. Spunky 1, by then with a broken music box and a rather gray coloring, was lost in a park on vacation in Minnesota. My husband and I were as upset as our daughter. Spunky 2 arrived via overnight mail when my daughter was 22 months, and she has never looked so happy. Spunky 2, also not making music and a gray color, was lost at the Denver Zoo when my daughter was 4. Spunky 3 was picked up from the "doctor" at a local store the same day. Spunky 3, non-musical and gray, was left in Leadville last month, when my daughter was 6-1/2, and probably snow-plowed. Spunky 4 is every bit as soft and pretty and playing music now. Spunky 5 is hidden in our house should he ever be needed. Hopefully this will not happen and Spunky 5 will be for my daughter's own child. Spunky 4 is not let out of the house in an effort to keep him forever. My daughter thinks that Spunky 4 is Spunky cleaned up by the Gund company. Or at least she is willing to accept this. We LOVE Spunky!Read Best Reviews of Gund Spunky Motion 8" Pink Musical Here

Buy Miyim Simply Organic Lovie Blankie, 0-3 Months Now
My baby is 9 months old. She has adopted this lovey and requires it to fall asleep. The ears of the bunny and the knotted corners of the blanket are perfect to keep her exploring hands busy while she eats and drifts off to sleep. It's soft but durable. She loves to rub it on her eyes when she is sleepy. I think it is the perfect size. It's small enough that I don't worry about it being in the crib with her overnight. At the same time, it's large enough for her to hold it up over her head in both hands and stretch. I don't know what we would do without this product!Read Best Reviews of Miyim Simply Organic Lovie Blankie, 0-3 Months Here
I bought this for my baby because I wanted her to have a stuffed animal/blanket lovie combobut this was not a good choice. Though it is very soft and very cute, it's body (the "blanket" part) is just very very small (about the size of an adult's hand).Want Miyim Simply Organic Lovie Blankie, 0-3 Months Discount?
I bought this for my older child to give to our new baby. I liked that it was organic cotton and thought that the giraffe was cute. When I undid the packaging, I didn't like the way the giraffe head looked on the blanket--I can't describe it, but it just isn't that cute. My older child (2 years) loves The American Bear Company Baby Cozies which are small (maybe 8") loveys that have a stuffed animal head and a flat, easy to hold/chew on body. They're not organic, but I think they're cuter, and they wash beautifully in the washing machine and can go in the dryer too.North American Bear Monkey CozyFriday, January 31, 2014
Kido Go Car
The end of the box states "1+", and really it would be ideal for any toddler or preschooler, but if you have a crawler who is beginning to manipulate things well with his hands, I think this car will be a good one to grow into. My grandson will be seven months at Christmas, and he is really getting around. The car may be a bit big for his little hands, but it isn't too heavy, and it rolls so well, that I am sure he will be able to get the thing going. I am looking forward to seeing his face when he realizes what a thing with wheels can do!
As far as other suggestions--I also bought the truck by the same company, and have written a review. Others I am considering are Sassy Pop and Push Car, and the Green Toys vehicles made in the USA from recycled milk cartons. I hope this helps.I don't like toys that beep, sign, yell, talk, make noise in general. I also don't like cars/trucks/vehicles with faces. Call me old fashioned but I wanted a durable, basic car for my son that was not sponsored by an animation company or that yelled obnoxious comments. Both my son and I love this toy. It is simple. I love the color. He loves the handle. Works well on carpet as well as linoleum. I will be giving this as a gift!I don't know if I got a lemon, but the wheels were so stiff that the toy doesn't really roll (even with some serious pushing) so it just doesn't work as a car. Paper weight, maybe. But, since I live indoors and don't have a problem with wind blowing papers around, I returned it.
(It's so cute, though, I might try ordering it again in the hopes that the next one will actually work as a car.)I bought this as a gift for another little boy since my son has had one for a year now and he seems to like it. My son is a little over the age of one. There's nothing special about it exactly. It's a car. It has a handle. It does seem to be made well and it has put up with some abuse. I am not sure it's worth the money since it's so simple, but I guess the cost is related to the quality. I like it since it's simple enough that it doesn't require adult assistance, and yet engaging enough that a child will continue to play with it.A lot of toy cars are for kids over 3 so this is a great option for younger toddlers. It is very cute, the colors are very bright, and the car rolls very well on carpet and hardwood floors. My son seems to like it and I like that it is not flashy and does not have unnecessary cartoon characters drawn on it.
