PlanToys Build a Robot
The only thing at the time that was a little bit difficult for him was putting the legs in, especially in the sitting-robot position, since it was a different angle of assembling it compared with the relative ease of putting the head(s) on the top of the torso. It might be easier now for him, now that he actually is a little bit older. There are multiple pieces that end up kind of laying around: there are the extra heads, loose, when you have your Robot "built," so a little drawstring bag or big gallon-size Ziploc freezer bag might be a good thing to have on hand for when the child is not playing with it, so you don't loose the parts.
I think the Build-A-Robot is a great toy for a child from about age 3 to maybe 6 or so. The older ones can use it for imaginary play, kind of like a doll or figure. He would also look awfully cute sitting on the dresser or bookshelf while he's waiting to be played with! So I guess he can be both a toy AND a decoration, especially in a Robotor space-themed room.My biggest complaint with this product is that if you buy it from this seller, you're paying 10 bucks more than if you buy it from Amazon.
Regarding the product itself, it's very cute. We have a LOT of other Plan toys, but this item doesn't stand up well at all. The threading is carved out of the wood itself, and it easily falls apart. So the legs didn't screw in after a short time of use. At least for us. We have an 18-month-old and a 4-yr old.

North American Bear Flatopup Baby Cozy
Buy North American Bear Flatopup Baby Cozy Now
This is our fourth "flato" cozy and we love them. Yes, they are small, but that's the idea. It's perfect for even the littlest hands and both my 6 month old and two year old them them. The pup has plenty of places for the baby to chew on, which is the main purpose of these in the beginning. The face is very cute and the baby loves getting kisses from his pup. My favorite part, besides the extreme softness and cute factor, is the ease of it being machine washable. They come through the wash beautifully. Overall, i definitely recommend this for any child!Read Best Reviews of North American Bear Flatopup Baby Cozy Here
I was already aware that this item was going to be small from the other reviews, however this I was still a bit taken back by the size. They are accurate in saying the size of an adult hand. Anyway it is super soft and my son is teething right now and so he is constantly chewing on it. He is 5 months and since it is small and lightweight he is easily able to pick it up and hold on to it.My son has the horse and this was a Christmas present...so soft and light weight, we give him this to snuggle with at night, no worries he will smother himself. Perfect size for a lovey!Sunday, June 29, 2014

Well, the munchkin might have given this doll one star as her clothes do not come off (that would be the doll's clothes, not the munchkin's). HOWEVER, her parents give it a five because her clothes stay on. She is soft and hug-gable and a great doll for an 18 month old.Want Madame Alexander My First Baby - Powder Blue, 12 Inch Discount?

Lamaze Mittens The Kitten Cloth Book
The colors and contrast are very amazing for him.
The different textures are something he likes too.
He is a bit young right now to use it at its 100% but this is what is really good about this book, it is useful from 3 months to more.
Buy Lamaze Mittens The Kitten Cloth Book Now
This was my first Lamaze purchase. My book came from the UK and I was amazed how fast I received my book. It was shipped right away with free shipping and I received the book at least two weeks earlier than promised. The kitten's head on the cover is puffy and is the most interesting part of the book because it makes the crinkly sound when touched. The book itself has no words, but each page is very colorful and self explanatory. On each page there is one thing that has a different texture for the baby or child to touch. You have a fish, chair, milk, flower, dog, butterfly, moon, and a ball of yarn with a texture that represents that object. The binding and handle is a soft satin that a young child would enjoy touching. In fact all the pages are very soft to the touch. A very cute book of a curious kitten.Read Best Reviews of Lamaze Mittens The Kitten Cloth Book Here

like it, like it, like it, like itUnfortunately the book was not put together correctly. The inside "pages" were upside down. Not something an infant needs to try to figure out.

Highly recommend this toy for small exploring hands. Hours of fun my daughter is 10 months old and absolutely adores it.Read Best Reviews of Fisher-Price Disney's Winnie the Pooh Honey Pot Stackers Here
I guess I expected this toy to do a little bit more then it does. Don't expect this toy to make any noise or to be terribly exciting. You stack the honey pots and that's pretty much it. I guess you can say the characters "pop" up, but mostly they just get pushed up. Having said this, I only paid $6.99 for it right before Christmas and was shipped to me free in 2days, so Iam not hugely dissapointed. My 15 month old doesn't seem to want to play with it much, but perhaps later on it will get played with more.Want Fisher-Price Disney's Winnie the Pooh Honey Pot Stackers Discount?
I got it cause it was cute and the characters pop when you stack them but my problem with It is the fact that you can't stack it anywhere you cant stack it on the carpet cause it tips over but you can stack it on hard floor so yea you can't play with it in a playpen Ether so if all you have is carpet this ant the toy for youPeek-a-Boo

Yookidoo Baby's First Bumper Book
Buy Yookidoo Baby's First Bumper Book Now
I bought it when my daughter was 4 months and she loved it. We used for a long time, it was great and she followed the light with her eyes and had so much fun with it. The batteries are hard to replace and had a bug for a while and it fixed itself not sure what happened, so quality improvements are in need for this toy. Overall is a good buy.One side is black and white with red lights. The other side is filled with colorful animals and the lights are different colors. There are three options. Two are classical music and one is just lights. The classical music can get a little repetitive but it doesn't seem to bother the baby. The lights are engaging and our baby definitely tracks the lights with her eyes. I had purchased a few tummy time mats and wish I would have just gotten this instead. Our baby can be on her tummy or side when this is playing and this keeps her entertained for awhile. Sometimes I will put this on her lap when she is sitting in her car seat with us at the restaurant when we are eating dinner. We haven't had problems yet with batteries. It takes quite a lot though. Bottom line: I highly recommend the Yookidoo Baby's First Bumper Book.The lights, music, and drawings were very interesting to my 3 month old, who got it for Christmas. However, after a couple of days, it seems like it got stuck in demo mode. It stops music and lights after a couple of seconds, when they should last for 10 minutes. Unfortunately, I cannot exchange it and give it another try, since at the moment it is not available directly from amazon and the current vendor has it priced at $10 more.Sunday, March 16, 2014
Gund Christmas Magic Messenger 17.5" Elf Gund Fun
I love the recording feaure it elfifies (read makes elf-like) your voice. We are doing a twelve days of Christmas count down and the kids have to decipher the message every day to get their prize or hint. Then, they can record a message to us if they want. It puts a nice new twist on Christmas as the kids get older. For the younger kids, it ends the recording with "I'll make he knows just what you want" indicating his ability to deliver the message to the big man himself.
Overall fun toy, and despite the kids recording and playing messages for the last four days straight, the batteries have not died (something nice to see in toys nowadays).This was one of the cutest elves I have. My son collects elves and this one with his elfin voice and recording is a treat. He loved telling him his wishes and hearing them played back. Please note that it does not record your voice--it changes it into the elf voice for playback.

My kids realy liked having Elf with us. They looked forward to see what Elf say every morning. Although my second son, who was 3, didn't like that Elf knew exactly what he did wrong. I think my husband was the one that enjoyed it the most, it was hard for him to say good bye to Elf after Christmas. The only thing I didn't like was that sometimes it was hard to understand after you record the message. You have to speak very clearly and loudly, but other than that, this is a great idea to work with your kids to improve their behavior, at least till Christmas.Read Best Reviews of Gund Christmas Magic Messenger 17.5" Elf Gund Fun Here

Fez Hat
Very strong hat
Even though it was big for kid we were able to make it workThe hat is good quality and beautiful but I didnt't like the size of it. It is small for an nornal adult.My son wanted to dress up as a toy monkey with cymbals and this fez hat completed his look perfectly! He loves the hat and all the kids love having a turn. The felt is not that thick so with pressure it can get crushed or dented so it is better for older children. It also is a little on the larger size, fits an older child well. Great buy for the price!

My 18 month old son has loved this ever since he was about 4 months old. He could even spin the "belly" then. It's easy. The songs are cute and kept him entertained in his crib until he fell asleep. He likes playing with it outside of his crib as well. This is money well spent.My four-month-old daughter received the LeapFrog Roll & Rhyme Learning Lion for Christmas and she loves it. The tummy is very easy for her to spin and the songs engage her attention. I like that I can switch it into nightlight mode to get a break from the somewhat loud and mildly annoying songs. It is small enough to be very portable. I do think, however, that once the novelty wore off, this toy would bore a toddler.Thursday, February 27, 2014

Swimways Baby Spring Float with Canopy - Green Turtle
I am so pleased with this product and I believe any of the different design versions from Swimways should be just as great. Good job on designing this sturdy, EASY TO USE, float!My grand daughter enjoyed floating in this but an insert needs to be made for smaller babies so you don't have to hang onto them from below.

Tiny Love Tiny Smarts Rattle Toy
Buy Tiny Love Tiny Smarts Rattle Toy Now
Very simple. The three legs are mildly springy. What our 7 month old has seen in this since he was 4 moths old is just a joyful set of attached balls that stand up and bounce a little. This was his fav, although now he is outgrowing it. But then tonight he thought it was great fun. Totally worth it.Read Best Reviews of Tiny Love Tiny Smarts Rattle Toy Here
The rattle itself is exactly what I expected to receive. What I didn't expect is for the rubber edges around the flower, presumably where a teething baby would be chewing, to be dirty. It didn't come wrapped in any kind of bag or packaging, it was simply attached to the product cardboard with a twist tie. The fact it wasn't completely clean is not too big a deal to me because I actually bought it as a toy for my parrot and it did wipe clean almost completely; however, if I was giving this to a baby I would not be happy.Want Tiny Love Tiny Smarts Rattle Toy Discount?
It was my daughter's first Valentine's Day this year, so I wanted to get her something to celebrate. I thought of getting a single rose, but she won't have any use for it. So I searched for "toy flower" and "baby flower" on Amazon, and had to pass up listings of clothing before I found this.Perfect.
It wasn't red and it had that large bulb at the bottom for the rattle, but it was close enough. So I ordered it. My daughter loves it. She's about 6 months right now, so she constantly puts the flower rattle in her mouth. It's great, though, because the petal part is flat and small enough that it fits in her little mouth, and the texture allows her to bite down toothlessly on it hard without bother. It's actually got two layers of petal: one where it's fabric and the paper material inside makes a crinkling sound for her stimulation, and then the firmer portion that's more like a teether.
The stem is wide, but not too wide to prevent her from grabbing it with one hand.
She likes the sound of the rattle, though I found it kind of annoying. It's a little more high pitched than other rattles we have, but I'll tolerate it if she likes it, which it seems she does. She almost always grabs it when I put it near her.

Fisher-Price Little Superstar Little Jam Band
Buy Fisher-Price Little Superstar Little Jam Band Now
My daughter received this set as a gift from her grandmother when we went to visit. While I was setting us up in an upstairs room, she was in the pack-n-play with all of her new toys and a few familiar ones. She pushed the buttons on the piano over and over again and I heard the guitar a few times, too. What's up with the trumpet, though? Did they just give up or run out of time or money in the development? I see the piano and guitar pulled out of the box often, but the trumpet is always put away. She loves all things musical and I have a several toys on her wishlist for her birthday and Christmas that are musical. This set was a good, very basic starter.Read Best Reviews of Fisher-Price Little Superstar Little Jam Band Here
We received these as a gift when my son was about 6 months old. They are the kinds of toys that are interesting for a short while until the novelty wears off.The piano just has one big button and plays a rotation of piano playing, someone saying "doobee, doopity bop, yeah", and someone laughing while lights flash. It is easy for a baby to push the button but unfortunately it does not have an off switch. So when it is in a bin with other toys it will play all night long if the button is pressed by another toy. It was heavy for a small baby and now that my little one can easily carry it, he is not very interested in it.
The guitar is similar to the piano but it has a barrel that is turned instead of a button and plays a rotation of a guitar playing, someone saying "doobee, doopity bop, yeah", and someone laughing. It also has beads inside so it is a rattle. It is a bit more challenging to play than the piano.
The trumpet has a button on the front that when pressed pretty hard makes a squeaking noise and clicking noise when you press down on the buttons (where the buttons on a real trumpet would be). This one is hard for a baby to play. At 16 months my baby finally is able to make the clicking noise and sometimes can get it to squeak.
The little handles on each of them make them easy to pick up but they are a bit heavy for younger babies. They seem very sturdy and we have not had to replace the batteries in the time we have had them (almost a year), although they haven't really been played with all that much.

John Deere Sit-N-Scoot Activity Tractor
The next summer (he was nearly 2) we took the toy outside to use as a riding toy. He loves it! Since he doesn't know how to pedal a real bike yet, this was perfect for him to race around on.
He still uses the toy and he is nearly 2 and 1/2. He loves the horn and he is still small enough to be able to push himself around quickly. I would recommend this ride on toy to anyone looking for a good, durable toy for inside or outside use.It was the most popular gift on his first birthday. He loved pushing it, sitting on it and moving the small animal figures. Lots of different kinds of fun for him.

My son received this tractor as a gift for Christmas when he was 9 months old and loved it. At first he loved pushing it around. Then he loved being pushed around on it. Finally he was able to scoot around on it himself...he loves giving his stuffed animals "rides" on it too! The animals didn't hold his attention very long but he does love being able to put things in the seat compartment and take them around! The horn and ignition sounds are also a great feature, he loves them! Now purchasing one for my nephew's first birthday!Read Best Reviews of John Deere Sit-N-Scoot Activity Tractor Here
for a child learning to walk. My grandson loves playing with with theanimals and listening to the animal sounds when you raise the seat. The
horn sound and starting of the engine are attract him as well. Very cute
and durable.I ordered this for my son's first birthday. We brought it to the party so he could use it to walk around since he's not fully walking on his own yet. It worked very well and now he uses it around the house. He loves the animals that come with it and the start up tractor sound. The only assembly is the seat back, which you just have to slide into the slots so easy! I would definitely recommend this for pre-walkers. We'll see if he likes to scoot on it as he gets a bit older. UPDATE: The sound/music died within a few months. We thought it was the batteries so we replaced those with brand new batteries and nothing. It seems like it just shorted out. My husband (who is all things electronic) took it apart and couldn't figure out what happened to it. This is actually the second John Deere product we've gotten first one was a tractor flashlight that would make the sound of a tractor starting up...the same thing happened with both products. I'm beginning to wonder if this might be some type of defect with John Deere toys. My son still keeps pushing the button to make the tractor sound and say's "Dada, fix it." It's a fun concept, but overall I'm disappointed with the quality.

Bought this for my 2 yr old daughter, so the family could go Trick or Treating in style. Huge Star Wars fan. Costume is easy to get in and out of. Also body area is big enough to wear over regular clothes to keep kids warm. Head piece is cheap but oh well she took it off at the party anyway. Overall great and can use it as a Bear suit for playtime.Read Best Reviews of Rubie's Costume Co Star Wars Romper And Headpiece Ewok Here
We had read previous reviews on this before purchasing and decided to give it a go. Overall, we are pleased with the overall costume. We did not have the time to try to make our own so this was our only option. It is pretty true to size. Our daughter is 10 months old and this fits her perfectly (size 6-12 month). So if you have a huge baby, you might want to get the next size up. The head piece goes over her head and bothers her but we took a rubber band and and or safety pin (clasp) and pull the back so it forces the front circle to fit her face tighter and she forgets its on. This stops it from "sliding around" and "covering her eyes" at times while wearing.Want Rubie's Costume Co Star Wars Romper And Headpiece Ewok Discount?
My daughter is the cutest Ewok ever. This costume will make your daughter or son into a super cute Ewok. Highly recommend this costume to anyone seeking a super cute costume. My daughter is 8 months old and a little tall for her age. I ordered the toddler size 2-4, it is a little long but a good fit. The costume is light weight so if you are thinking about halloween you will want to layer. The costume has convenient velcro so you can easily change a diaper.
