Wizard Of Oz Scarecrow Romper Costume
Buy Wizard Of Oz Scarecrow Romper Costume Now
The size runs very big, so go by the weight of your child. My son weighed 20lbs at 16 months and the INFANT size (6-12 months) was very baggy on him. The costume itself was adorable and we got lots of compliments! It must have been quite comfortable, because he left it on (even the hat) the whole evening without tugging on it. The quality was not that great. The velcro that holds the pants section closed is stronger than the felt material of the costume, so be very careful when putting it on and taking it off. You can't just rip the velcro open like we do on most things. For one or two Halloween events in the fall, it should hold up just fine. I'm really glad we chose this costume. The price was right and my son looked adorable!Read Best Reviews of Wizard Of Oz Scarecrow Romper Costume Here
This costume is the cutest! The quality is awesome and this costume was a hit! Everyone commented on how cute it is!Great costume for a wonderful price. My 1yr old son wore this costume to several events and it held up quite nicely with the exclusion of a few missing fringes which wasn't a deal breaker nor did it affect the look of the costume. I'm am very please with this purchase.Saturday, April 19, 2014
Triangles
For very young kids, you will not find a better toy in any price range.My 3-month-old was given this for Christmas and I wasn't sure what to make of it. Well, he LOVES it! And this is why: It is the only toy that he has that is easy to hold (the triangles keep his hands in the toy), and he can put it in his mouth to soothe and he shakes it around. It is the only toy that when he drops it and can't find it, he fusses.
Read Best Reviews of Triangles Here
Honestly, I ordered this triangle toy because I saw all of the positive reviews, but I thought we would like the other two toys I ordered better, because this just looks too simple to be fun.No way.
This is absolutely my daughter's favorite toy. She is 4 months old, and she loves this because of the bright colors, because it is just the right size for her to grasp, and it works well for shoving into her teething little mouth.
It also makes a nice little wooden rattle sound.
I am considering ordering several of these to keep on hand as a standard baby shower gift. That's how much my daughter loves this toy.
I can't recommend this enough. It has already calmed my daughter for many fussy episodes when I use it to distract her. I am posting a picture so that you can get an idea of the actual size of this toy.My little 4 months old girl is hard to please. She gets quickly bored or very angry at toys (when she can't push them into her mouth). I wanted to give it a try and ordered several of the Haba wooden toys(even though they are recommended 6m+). All of them are of very good quality, however at this age she likes only two of them. 1.) this Triangle she loves, 2.) and the Kringelring she likes. The Triangle is simple but still complex,maneuverable enough to "work it", not just simply hold . It is nice and small, so can fit in small baby hands and mouth.
The other toys like the Flapsi, Trix, Moby clutching toy she will enjoy more probably in few weeks/months.
Update: Being pleased with Haba I now ordered the Magica toy from them. This is absolutely great! I would say that even better than the Triangle. So for younger baby I would recommend mainly the Triangle and Magica.

Eeny Meny Miny Zoo Building Blocks
Eeny, meeny zoo did not disappoint either, retaining all the great qualities typical of HABA blocks. And they allow kids to explore many possiblilies of creating different animals of different shapes and sizes. All in all, a good buy.
The only thing that spolit my experience of getting this toy: the bad packaging this toy came in when I received it, the sorry state of the box and clear cover seem to indicate that the toy is a used item despite me ordering and paying for a new item. Though this is no fault of the manufacturer. The problem lies with the seller. Just something for consumer to take note of.my three year old grandson loves building things with these original blocks. they help him use his imagination as they are fun shapes and faces and colors rather than the regular boring blocks. they are light so i am not afraid that his one year old sister will hurt herself or throw them and hurt someone. a bit expensive but adorable.

My daughter is still playing with these blocks at 3 years old. She received these as a gift when she was a year old and we now combine these blocks with our Melissa and Doug block set along with the Haba Medieval set and she loves it. The faces on this become characters to act out scenes which is brilliant. Also, no paint has chipped off these with rigorous testing!Read Best Reviews of Eeny Meny Miny Zoo Building Blocks Here
These are great blocks for toddlers-well made, durable, good for small hands, colorful, and a good addition to the Haba Fantasy blocks. Would consider buying more of Haba products in the future.I decided that it was important for my son to have some quality blocks for Christmas. I am a reasearch-aholic and poured over reviews and suggestions before deciding on these. My son was 9 months at Christmas and these were an instant hit. Really the only thing he was digging from Santa's loot. They are extremely durable (he is 11 months not and loves to "hammer" everything) they serve as a clutch toy for learning to pick up and carry, a great teether, learning to stack, fill and spill (put them in a bucket) and a puzzle to but them back in the box. The colors are great and I have yet to find any mizzing or chipped paint.Tuesday, February 25, 2014

I was expecting these to be soft plastic..something that could easily be cleaned especially since they are for 6 months +. They are actually cardboard. The designs and pictures are nice but any time my 9month old uses them, I will have to be right there with her to stop her from trying to chew them or crush them. Plastic would have been much better as far as clean ability and durability.Read Best Reviews of Kids Preferred Stacking Nesting Blocks, Classic Pooh Here

Lullaby and Goodnight by Pockets of Learning
I really never thought about this toy much until I was browsing amazon for toys and I saw that it cost THIRTY FIVE dollars!! There is no way that it is worth that much money. Buy your kid 6 or 7 board books instead.

I rec'd this as a baby shower gift, and am very suprised to find it's retail is $35! I do have an older version (no music) but, my son is now 18 mo and still loves "reading" his book before bed. So worth it none the less.Read Best Reviews of Lullaby and Goodnight by Pockets of Learning Here
I ordered this book for the up-coming birthday of a grandson. It really is cute and an excellent quality. It comes with a small stuffed bear that you can remove from the book. Each page of the book has a different night-time activity for the bear to do such as have a glass of milk, brush his teeth etc. I'm not exactly sure what I was expecting because even though it is a quality toy I'm not sure that Liam will use it enough to make it worth the price I paid. The Pockets of Learning toys all seem to be very high quality if somewhat pricy.My twins each receive this book for christmas. They do go page by page at naptime and bedtime. The manufacturer does include a card on how to contact them for replacements on missing items, such as the pajamas, milk, soap. A book they are sure to play with for a long time.Sunday, January 26, 2014
Disney Baby Music and Lights Walker Featuring Pooh Characters, Ambrosia
Buy Disney Baby Music and Lights Walker Featuring Pooh Characters, Ambrosia Now
I just purchased this walker for my 6 month old baby and was disappointed that she is too short to touch the floor while sitting in it. Even on the lowest setting her feet are about 3 inches from the floor. If you have a petite baby, this walker is going to be useless for quite a while. It's cute enough, and she likes the spinner toys. The honey pot music box is SUPER LOUD! We had to put tape over the speakers and it's still a bit loud and tinny sounding, but at least the baby isn't afraid of it any longer. Overall, I think this is a decent walker. I was going to get the Chicco DJ walker, but couldn't find it locally. So I went ahead and got this one, which was quite a bit less expensive... I just wish she fit in it.Read Best Reviews of Disney Baby Music and Lights Walker Featuring Pooh Characters, Ambrosia Here
My 4 month old has this walker and just as the other person said the music is way too loud and tinny sounding..it sounds like a toy from the 99 cent store...i dont really like the fact the tray opens...its dangerous for tiny fingers. My daughter likes to walk backwards in it but she seems to be afraid of the noise from the toy so she is very hesitant to touch any of the toys.Want Disney Baby Music and Lights Walker Featuring Pooh Characters, Ambrosia Discount?
By the time your little one is tall enough to sit in thishe will already be walking.Even on the lowest setting it is too tall for them. Thankfully, it was a gift and I didn't waste any money on this one. But thought people should be aware of the height limitations on this seat.
My son is not considered smallat 7 months he is in 88% for his height.... His feet are 2 inches from the ground!
SO it's not that he is short.
A better option if you want to put your baby in a walker at 6 months is the chicco dj baby walker.

Aurora Plush Baby 14 inches Baby Girl's First Bear
She loves her teddy and takes him eveywhere we go. Not to mention that she sleeps with him also. It's very soft and very sweet.My daughter received this teddy bear from a friend of ours when she was born, still in the hospital. It's her favorite to this day (she's almost 15 months). I just bought a second for her daycare. It's sort of held up through a couple trips through the washing machine, but I'd recommend having a couple bears on hand.

Manhattan Toy Tulu Rattle
At 14 weeks, our daughter is busy exploring her world, developing dexterity, and strengthening her immune system by maneuvering things into her mouth and slobbering all over them. The Tulu has different textures (hard plastic and rubber) and shapes (the long pieces and the end pieces), and it's easy for her to pick up and hold onto, when we put it in her lap. As she grows, we expect that the toy will become even more interesting as she learns to make it rattle and change shapes.
Another great thing about this toy is that it's safe. So far, Manhattan Toys is one of the companies we trust. Even though most, if not all, of their toys are made in China, they apparently do rigorous testing to ensure that all US and European safety standards are met and/or exceeded. Hooray!

Our baby (5 months) loves this toy! It keeps her entertained and she loves chewing on the different parts of the toy. She has not mastered the technique of transforming this toy from square to triangle but is fascinated when my husband and I change it into different shapes. Easy for her to grasp and the rattling is not annoying at all. I plan on buying another one just in case this one doesn't last for the next baby! I would definitely invest in this toy.Our son really enjoys this toy, keeps him entertained for long periods of time. Very cool that he can adjust it to fit his hands/mouth.This "nerd rattle" has been one of our daughter's favorite toys from about 2 through 9 months. Fun, cool, and nice sounding for parents. Easy to grab and manipulate for kids. Her favorite thing, peering through it when she spreads the sides out to make it a cube. Plus people love getting it as a gift.Friday, August 23, 2013

Okay, you've heard about the contest for The World's Ugliest Dog, right? Well, this guy would win the prize, paws down. He's Uglydog, and he doesn't do the whole "sit up, roll over and beg" thing. I found him at Newbury Comics, and he was just too ugly to pass up, so I added him to my collection. So if you're still looking to find the world's ugliest dog, I think Uglydog might be the one.Read Best Reviews of Gund Uglydoll Little Uglydog, 7.5" Plush Here

Kathe Kruse Rainbow Baby Doll, Green
Overall, excellent gift for a new baby, though maybe a bit pricey.My son loves this! We got it when he was about 4 months old and it is the perfect size for him to hold onto and put in his mouth. The wooden ring seems to feel good on his gums and I feel better knowing it is wood instead of plastic.

I'm on this site because I have to buy more in case "Baby" gets lost or loved to death. We took the ring out and it has been my son's "Baby" since he was 5 months old. He's now 9 months and carries it everywhere and sleeps with it, hence me having to get more. Excellent because it is small enough to sleep with baby without the risk of suffercation. Highly recommend even though it is pricey.This little dolly is so cute, we love the fact that it is natural and quiet. My husband and I struggle to find a good balance of toys for our daughter that don't always require batteries, have outragously annoying music or light up and beep constantly. This was a great addition to her wooden teethers and she drags it around the house holding it by one antenna all the time. When leaving the house, I always toss this in the bag to take along. When we are visiting w/ friends or shopping it keeps her happy and quiet. I like that it has a teether, and a soft toy together. Its less to have to bring to keep her happy because this does both.Friday, July 5, 2013

Baby Alive First for Me Splash "N Giggle - Brunette
When I first started looking, I was actually thinking of an all vinyl doll, and I thought that is what this one was. It isn't, it is a cloth doll that can be immersed (voicebox and all). When you are done, you remove the voicebox, wring it out, and hang it up to dry. So it isn't a doll that can go quickly from bath to bed!
However, it is machine washable and dryable on low, you just have to remove the voice box.
When it is dry, it is a nice baby doll that giggles and makes bubbly sounds. The outfit (a swimsuit) is a part of the doll, and it is cuddly. With the voice box removed, it is even more cuddly.
The voice box pops in and out easily after opening the Velcro opening on the back, but holds in place well.
I would have been happier with one that wasn't all fabric, but at least my granddaughter has a baby to play with in the tub and pool, or sprinkler on hot days.My grandaughter loves this babydoll. She plays with her in the bath everynight. Its neat that even when in the water she can make it giggle. Nice bath time toy for a little girl who loves playing with baby dolls. Alot of the the otherones are either hard plastic or doesn't do anything.
