Vilac Magnetic Animal Blocks

These seem decently well made. The wood is nice. The paints are bright, and they haven't chipped yet. However, the designs aren't perfectly matching-seems like each piece was painted in bulk rather than as a particular set, and I didn't expect that kind of imperfection in a product this pricey. The magnets seem to be well embedded. My 17 month old hasn't gotten the hang of putting them back together, but she does enjoy taking the pieces apart.

Baby Bottle Buddy CollectionTM, Duck

I got the whole collection of Baby Bottle Buddies for my son and glad I did. This is not just a little stuffed toy. These things have so many uses. It fit on the end of almost all my bottles and it really kept him focused during feeding and the teething ears were a huge plus! I just throw it in the washer after our feeding time and it's like new. I like the fact that all the parts are embroidered on as well, so I don't have to worry about choking. I even got one for my dog and she loves it.

Tiny Teddy Xylophone

This is absolutely the best pull toy ever! My daughter was given several others, but she loved this one the best. She was fascinated by how he moves his arms up and down and that that plays the xlyophone. I think because she could see HOW the music was being played instead of just some electrical sounds coming out of it like they are on the other pull toys.

This little xylophone is very cute and has a vintage-inspired look. It is unique because the bright, cheery sound that it makes is what you would expect to hear from a truly vintage toy. It is not annoying, but brings back fond memories of yesteryear.

This is a 'pull' toy, but the pull string was 8 inches in length. Impossible for a toddler to pull. We added cord for length and a spool at the end. Now it works.

This is a pull toy, right? Well, you can't pull it no matter how short you are since the string is about 8 inches long. I would send it back but I lost the box. Worthless toy.

Hi , My daughter she is 2 years old and she likes to play with this toy but not all the time , it is a nice toy I like it too .

Bright Starts Pop Links

These are excellent. They are great for newborns. My kids are 2 and still enjoy pulling them apart and making long chains. Great for traveling too, especially in the car. One of my little ones has a weakness on one side and her therapist uses these to build strength as well.

My children and I volunteer at an equine therapy riding stable. We use the beads to help the children practice fine and gross motor skills.

They direct their horses to the correct color base and then remove a bead from a four chain, and toss it onto the base. HIGH FIVE!

These word great!

Remo Kids Percussion, Floor Tom, 10 Diameter with Mallet, Rain Forest Fabric

• Children love to make music and rhythm is the foundation of all music making
• Can be played with hands, mallets, or sticks
• Made using the same ACOUSTICONTM shell material and FIBERSKYN® 3 drumheads
• Has received the prestigious Oppenheim "Best Toy Award" for product quality

We bought this for our two year old music loving boy. He LOVES this drum. This is not a fake toy drum that sounds terrible and will break in a few months. Remo is a respected maker of amateur and professional drums for adults, so this is a real instrument. It sounds good and is very sturdy. And most of all, toddlers LOVE it.

I bought an extra mallet at the same time as I bought the drum because there was only one pictured. It was not clear to me. The drum actually comes with two mallets so no need to buy an extra!

This is the coolest drum I've seen. Soem that I've seen have a really cheap top that could easily be punctured...and they are over 20 bucks... this one is very thick and sturdy for only a bit more. I just can't believe how good the quality is. The sound the mallots make on it are incredible. I'm really pleased. I got it for my daughter's 2nd birthday (she LOVES drums) and she absolutely loves it, and it is something that will grow with her. Such great quality and an amazing price.

I got this drum for my son's 4th birthday. He was excited to get it. I don't mind the sound at all. It is not a loud annoying sound like some cheap toys are. We also had the large lollipop Remo drum already, which we all enjoy. I also have a 18 month old. There is a mallet for each of them and they both play on it at the same time. But, I put the mallets up when not in use because these mallets are wrapped and tied. Lollipop mallet is not wrapped. I highly recommend both drums. The large lollipop has a lower pitch than the floor tom. My husband and I also find it hard to resist playing on them. We plan to add to our collection of Remo kids drums. Also, it is great that they are made in the USA.

LeapFrog Shapes And Sharing Picnic Basket

This is long, but you will know everything that you need to know:

PURPOSE OF PURCHASE:

My daughter had just turned 11 months old. I was looking for a fill-and-spill toy that she would not outgrow as quickly as many other baby toys and I was hoping for something that she would use for creative play for the next couple of years. We were skeptical at first because we felt that, although the price is reasonable, we still did not want to throw away $20 and she might not care for it or it may be a little mature for her.

I am so glad that we bought it. It was the last of the gifts that we bought for her first Christmas, and I just know it was meant for her to have.

DESCRIPTION:

Everything is made of hard plastic, except for the checked "blanket" which is like a handkerchief. The basket is packed pretty full with everything inside, but she can easily fit it all back in without help. She loves carrying all of the pieces around in her little hands. (There are many pieces and you don't want them lost!) The full basket is a little heavy for a baby. She did not carry the entire basket around until recently (14 months) and still prefers not to, but she has always taken it off of her toyshelf and sat with it closeby in the floor. I can watch this thing growing with her. She likes to put the food pieces and forks in her mouth. And she LOVES the sounds it makes when the lid opens and closes. She loves the songs that it sings, and let me tell you, the voice is too cute and sweet. She dances while she plays and tries to sing.

POSITIVE:

I love it because it is easy to wipe clean (even though I haven't had to clean it yet), it is durable, it is fun, adorable, AND VERY educational!!

I had not realized before she started playing with it, but it teaches manners (saying please & thank you) and some prepositions, such as: put one cup IN the other cup, spread the blanket ON the ground UNDER the tree...a picnic WITH my friend. It sings the colors of the rainbow. It counts up to four often. It sings short songs about how many sides each shape has, and each of the three foods on each plate is a different shape (triangle pie slice, square cracker, circle orange slice). It asks you to find each shape. The plates are similar to wooden puzzles (only plastic), and she is learning to put the foods in place.

She also LOVES music, and this thing is constantly singing. It even reminds you to push the butterfly button to hear a song. She can play with this toy 100% by herself, and I know that she will not outgrow it any time soon because it is also my favorite of her toys. And when her cousins (4yrs & 11yrs) came to visit, this is the toy that they played with for 2 hours straight! She plays with it more than any other toy (and she has too many toys). We have never had to replace the batteries since she first got it.

NEGATIVE:

The cups are not intended to hold liquids. They each have two holes in the bottom that you could almost stick a pencil through. I like that she will have to use her imagination and also I will not have to worry about the inside of the picnic basket getting sticky with juice and I am glad that ants will not be stored in there. (But some people would rather have usable cups, and if your child tried to use them, it would be messy, so I thought I would mention this.)

The only real negative that I can find is that the talking basket may ask you to find the triangle, but it has no way to know whether you found it, so it does not correct you or praise you. It never responds or gives hints or anything. So basically, it just randomly asks your child to find things, but she may never know if her answer was correct (or wrong!). Therefore, I recommend that Mommy plays with her.

BOTTOM LINE:

I say it is well worth every cent (and more)!

this is a great toy! very durable, bold colors. everything fits into the basket so it's easy to store and not lose pieces. My 18 month old daughter loves playing pretend and this is a great toy for her. Plus, all the food is a shape that fits in it's on spot on the plates, like a puzzle. It helps her with shapes, colors and I can get her to clean up when she's done. And she loves carrying this around the house.

My 19 month old loves this set-foods, plates, cups and music. I am reluctant to let her play with it because she can fit the entire circle shapes (cookie and orange) completely into her mouth.

I have never written a review before, but had to for this toy. My 2 1/2 year old daughter and 11 month old son play with this toy constantly and fight over it so much so I am thinking about buying another one. We have more toys than anyone I know. I know the good, bad and easily broken ones on the market. This toy has everything you'd want for your kids.

1. Sounds effects

2. Container to store pieces in

3. Shape-sorter

4. Different healthy food items for your toddler to learn to distinguish

5. Promotes sharing (though my kids are still working on this aspect :)

6. Container has a handle for toddler to tote around (which all toddlers love to do)

I highly recommend this!

I bought this for my 2yr old along with the Potsy and she LOVES it! She'll place the blanket first on the floor and the two plates with food on top. She loves to pretend we're having a picnic and carries the basket everywhere. I love Leapfrog products!

Fisher-Price Giggle Gang - Pinky

Literally it's tons of giggles. It is initially triggered by a squeeze to the belly but after that, any little motion will set it off. It has to be still for a few minutes (5 or 10) for it to reset and no longer be triggered by motion. That means during a car ride (constant movement!) it will laugh and giggle the -entiretime. So I don't suggest long car rides or you'll have to open it up and turn it off manually. Yes, it does have a manual off which is great. It also allows you to remove the electronic parts entirely so it can be washed-I love that. It's a great toy, very fun to my 8 month old who laughs with it, and I would defently buy again!

My 1 yr old saw this in the store and fell in love. I purchased one for her as a Christmas gift. Over all I think it's darling and I know she will love it, however my nerves probably won't. It giggles with the slightest movement so wrapping it was a real treat. On a positive note, our children have had endless fun finding the giggling box and shaking it.

I bought this for a girl's room i was decorating and i have to say that when the little cat arrived my expectations weren't even close the reality because this plush toy is even cuter in person, i guess that the little girl will love her cat, i also bought the mary meyer plush pink dog, both of them just look adorable on the shelves. A must buy if you have a little girl or want to make an special gift.

Good quality, well made, soft fur, cute, for all age children and at a great price. I would buy this for others as well.

Käthe Kruse Waldorf Gugguli Pale Pink 11"

I really adore this doll and so does my eight month old daughter. It's a really nice size and she loves to chew on the knot on the cap and on the hands and feet, then cuddle the soft velour body as she sleeps. The fact that there's no stuffing in the body makes her especially cuddly.

The only thing that disappointed me, though I admit my daughter really doesn't care, is that the doll that was sent to me is different than the one pictured. Ours has a brightly colored polka dot hat and collar which I don't care for. The one pictured is much more subtle and the pattern seems to go better with the pale pink velour. But all in all, not a big deal and I'm sure she will be loved and cuddled for years to come.

Born Free Easy Grip Disney Teether Baby Toy - Minnie

I am in love with all things Disney... I actually found it cheaper in Babies R Us. I would not buy online.. But its a great toy that is easy to carry on and makes it fun to help out the little ones who are teething.

CoCaLo Dinos At Play Plush Dinosaur

Really cute, got it as a gift for my friends new baby boy. When I received it there was glue on the top fin, looks like where they sealed the bag it was in. Not a huge deal, but a little disappointing.

We do not have this bedding set, but this particular dinosaur plush completes our nursery decor. It is about a foot tall with very plush velour material. The blue sections are a wide corduroy style fabric, also plush velour in feel.

It is a soft sherbet orange color with light blue accents. The colors will work nicely for a girl or boy. It is a wonderful toy/decoration for any child's room, infant or older.

It is well constructed and very soft. I could not be happier!

PlanToys Mini Roller

My daughter is very particular about the toys my grandchildren can have. My grandson is at the stage wherein he loves trucks and things that have moving parts. This wooden toy is well made and should withstand tough and tumble play.

I bought these for my five week old son, who won't be able to play with them for at least a few more weeks, but I just LOVE them. I have been very pleased with all the wooden toys by this brand, and think the quality is far superior to other wooden toy brands I have tried. For now, they look great on the bookshelf in his room but I am confident that he will love playing with them in the very near future.

HABA Lucky Charm Pacifier chain

This pacifier chain is fantastic! It's wooden, well made and very colorful, I got so many compliments about it! As other reviewer said, it attaches super strongly so there is no way that you or your baby can pull it off. This pacifier chain is made in Germany for some it may be important news. Over all, I would highly recommend this item, I love all the Haba products because of their quality.

The reviews saying that the product slips off of fabric on the clip are not using the clip properly. It is VERY strong and I can't pull it off of anything it is clipped to. The fabric should be clipped inside the clip, not between the wood piece and the back of the metal clip. This pacifier chain is fantastic. My son loves to play with it and the quality is so nice. Instead of a pacifier, I've hooked a silicone toothbrush to the end and my son can chew it when he's in the carrier on my back and I don't have to worry about him dropping his toy. I'd love to have a few of these. They are super cute and of excellent quality.

OUr little guy won't take a paci but loves to chew on the edges of a Natursutten. So, I picked this clip up when he started teething. He loves playing with the shapes, exploring the texture, and chewing on the chain. It has stayed clipped without any issues, so the paci never ends up on the ground. We have a HABA stroller chain, as well, and have never had any trouble with the brand. They are darling.

Momma Goose Amber Baby Teething Necklace (Rounded Baroque, Cognac)

My 5 yr old daughter has a skin issue that causes a lot of swelling and pain. She was complaining one day about how awful it hurt and I put the necklace on her. Within 1/2 hour, she told me how it NO longer hurt and her swelling also started to subside. We both love it!

My six month old had been teething miserably for weeks before I stumbled upon these necklaces. Within a day she showed a noticeable change, her gums were not as red and swollen and she was not as irritable! I wish I'd discovered these three children ago! Since then I've purchased several more for the whole family direct from momma goose and they benefit us all!

Bright Starts Drop & Giggle

I got this toy for my 9 month old son who is now 10 months old. At first he didn't want much to do with it, but now he loves to "show off" at how well he can do. Of course, we clap and cheer each time he does it right, but it's priceless to see the little grin on his face when he puts the ball in the hole and gets the little jingle from the Giraffe! One word of advice, patience. . it does take a bit of work to teach them how to do this one.

At first my 8 month old wanted nothing to do with it, but now that she is 9 months she loves this toy! Its amazing how much this toy has developed her hand/eye coordination and fine motor skillsat first she couldnt put any of the balls in the holes and within a week she drops the balls in the giraffe and crawls around to get the balls. I found that putting this toy on a wood/tile floor makes it more enjoyable for my daughter as the balls roll farther.

Kids Animated Optimus Prime Costume

My son loved it. It arrived before Halloween. We got the 4-6 size and it JUST fit him. He's a skinny 5 yr old. I liked that it was comfortable. We put thermals on underneath and he wore it for 3 days straight. I cannot believe the mask is still intact, but it is! It's just made out of plastic, but it's better than the flimsy ones we had as kids. :)

My son wore this costume for Halloween and still plays in it mostly without the mask because it is not the most comfortable, but he can see out of it which was important to me. It is thin but sturdy. Yeah there are cooler ones out there, but I paid less than $10 for it....

Winfun Grow With Me Musical Walker

after reviewing like 100 walkers, I finally decided on this one. It was a great choice. My daughter loves it. It has a bunch of detachable things and is sturdy enough that it does not tip over when she uses it to pull herself up onto it. The wheels lock so if she wants to face it and play it wont slide away from her. It's a reasonable price also! I highly recommend it.

My little girl loves this toy! We had wood floor and it would fly out from under her, so we had to leave it against the couch. She would still crawl over to it and play with it. We recently got carpet and it rolls perfectly on it! It no longer flys away with her! This was a great purchase!

Buy Winfun Grow With Me Musical Walker Now

I bought this for my 9 month old son who is just starting to walk. I was very happy with this product. The wheels can go a little fast (even on carpet), but if you're there to help slow it down it's not a problem. I think if they made this a little heavier it would help it go a little slower. But I'm sure once he gets more confident walking he'll be able to keep up better. I checked out a lot of other walkers, and I have to say I'm so happy I went with this one. There are so many toys and knobs on this one that my lil guy never gets bored. And when I put the brakes on he can play with it forever without running out of something new to play with. Overall this one is just a great value. The cell phone and piano are detachable making it three toys in one. We detach the piano part when my son isn't using the walker and he plays with it all the time. I figure if we were to buy a separate piano toy it would cost at LEAST $15, with the walker being as cheap as it is it's a great buy. My only complaint on this would be that the cell phone is actually just a squeaky toy and isn't electronic. I would rather it make little cell phone sounds or something. But I'm just being picky. Love this toy and would definitely buy it again. :)

Great toy for those babies who havent mastered walking yet but are working at it. My daughter will sit in front of it and play and sometimes kneel or stand to play with the toys higher up and on the sides. It is, however, not at sturdy as i hoped it would be. When she stands and leans on it it rocks so i have it propped against a wall. As far a actually using it for a walker it could also stand to be more sturdy. I wouldn't feel comfortable letting her practice walking with it with being right with her holding the thing down. Oh and the wheels still move on carpet with them locked so be careful. We only use it locked because otherwise it moved to fast. Overall its good but not as good as it could be

I got this for my 7 month old son and he loves it. He is still a little unsteady when walking and standing, so we sit or kneel behind him holding the walker in front. He loves playing with the toys on it, when we put him on his play mat, he goes directly to it! I love that two of the toys are removable and the walker has brakes on the two front wheels (wish it was all four wheels). I would recommend this to everyone with a child learning to walk.

My First Puppy - Blue

THIS IS BY FAR MY SON'S FAVORITE STUFFED ANIMAL. HE HAS HAD IT SINCE HE WAS A FEW MONTHS OLD AND HE IS NOW OVER 3. HIS "DOGGY" IS HIS BEST FRIEND. IT IS HIS COMPANION DURING THE DAY AT HOME AND IN THE CAR. HE SLEEPS WITH IT EVERY NIGHT. WE OWN THREE OF THEM WHICH WE ROTATE SO THEY ALL SEEM TO BE WORN THE SAME (HE DOESN'T KNOW THE DIFFERENCE, THOUGH HE DOES IF IT IS "NEW" ONE). WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT. IT IS THE PERFECT SIZE FOR AN INFANT, VERY SOFT LIKE A LITTLE PILLOW AND HAS NO REMOVAL EYES, ETC. AS A TODDLER IT IS PERFECT SIZE FOR HIM TO CARRY AROUND AND STILL CUDDLE WITH.

This puppy is very cute but it is much smaller than the picture makes it look. It is just a bit larger than a beannie baby animal. I'm not saying thats a bad size but I didn't want any one else suprised the way I was.
