Lee Middleton Little Bailey Doll - Dark

I'm so sorry I can't give thus sweet doll 5 stars. This is the cutest dark complexion doll I could fine! I spent $35. on this doll which is more than many well made dolls. Unfortunately, there is a very distinct petroleum smell about this doll. It seems to be in the material that makes up the head, hands and feet. I've washed her head, hand and feet several times and hasn't made any difference. I'm at a loss why the 2 other reviewers didn't mention this problem. The smell permeated her clothes which Is better since being laundered. It's a very unpleasant and strong smell. I've washed her and set her in the fresh air for a week now and I have serious doubts that will make any difference. My hubby walked past her a couple of feet away and asked what was that chemical smell. I inadvertently destroyed her packaging so I guess I'm out $35.00 because I don't even want my grand babies to breath in these fumes.

I bought 3 dolls. One of them was a birthday gift for my 2 year old adopted grandaughter and she can't put her down! She loves her. Little Bailey is just the right size for young children and as my grandaughters grow, I'll purchase the larger, life-like baby dolls. I was "sad" that Lee Middleton has discontinued the small baby line.

This doll was just perfect. It was not to big for someone that just started walking to carry around and soft bodied so, when said person crashes, it doesn't add to injuries! Cute clothing and she sucks her thumb and great skin tone. I love that Middleton offers Bailey in a darker skin tone. It took me forever to find a doll that I liked that wasn't blond and blue eyed! I just bought another for another niece that just turned one...am now looking for an asian and hispanic styled dollie so any ideas are appreciated!

Manhattan Toy Brilliant Bear Magnetic Stack-up

My son is turning 1 next month and he really likes this toy. I stack it for him and he knocks it down. He chews on the pieces and they are very durable, the paint doesn't chip and it doesn't show teeth marks. Now we have a game were I try to get it stacked before he can knock it down. We go back and forth like that and honestly it's fun for me too. We have electronic toys that light up and play music but I honestly think he prefers this, we can play with it for a long time without him getting bored. Also it's very attractive and bright. I think it would make a nice display piece on a shelf too.

Nuby Wacky Teething Ring

Bought this for my 5 month old granddaughter. My daughter said she chewed on it for 4 hrs straight and loved the 2 little krinkly ears on it. Easy for baby to hold on to.

My son loves this teether because it is not cold for him to hold like sonme of the all ice teethers. There is 1 ice part but the entire piece gets cold. The 2 cloth parts make crinkle noises which he loves as well.

Disappointed with this book being so poorly sewn. The stitching is terrible looking on the front of the book. If child didn't love Simba so much, I would have returned the item.

This is a great book lots of soft pages for baby to play with & also with the added bonus of the teether

Large ABC Blocks by Schylling

There seem to be several toys of this nature with varying size blocks. Some of them are really small too and the pictures are somewhat deceptive in depicting the size. This toy, though it says large blocks, is composed of 48 one and three-fourth inch wooden cubes. The cubes are robustly built and light. Box is solidly built. My child likes the cubes and also uses the box as a stepping stool sometimes. I think it will last a long time. I'm satisfied with this purchase.

My daughter loves playing with these. She stacks them and tries to identify the colors and letters. These blocks are much bigger than the typical 1" blocks you'll find in typical stores, which makes them better for stacking and grasping. The only minor downside is the wood is a little soft, meaning they can get dinged rather easily, but overall, they're great.

These blocks arrived looking like they had been slightly used. I thought, okay, no big deal, but then the paint begain chipping off more.

I like the clear, modern graphics on these blocks. On the downside, the blocks are soft and have a few internal (not edge) cracks. They won't be heirlooms, but they are perfectly adequate for banging around and stacking by my one-year-old.

Dumbbell Rattle

My husband and I bought this for our little dreamboat for his 6 month birthday. We were only interested in purchasing a real sterling silver rattle. This rattle shipped quick, came wrapped in a cute little green box and has a lovely sound to it. This is a perfect gift for a new baby if you purchase and get it engraved. This is a favorite toy of our little ones. As soon as he hears the sound he smiles. It is also very practical for tweeting!

Gund Chomper Shark 22" Plush

We bought this toy for our 2.5 yr old son because he is obsessed with sharks every since watching the Disney movies "Oceans" and "Finding Nemo". He even named it Brucie. The toy is quite durable and well made, but still soft and cuddly enough to snuggle up with in bed. I docked it one star because the yarn eyelids stitched above the eyes have the potential to come loose if picked at and pulled. Otherwise, it's a great way to introduce children to these majestic sea creatures in a friendly and non-threatenin way.

Playskool Cushy Cruisin Fire Truck

My one-year old granddaughter was using balls like cars saying zoom, so I went to buy a car or truck for her. Not easy! Most say not for under 3 years due to small parts, and of course, were made of hard metal. I was thrilled to find this big, soft truck with large wheels, but not as thrilled as she was to receive it! She clapped her hands with glee, and played with it right away! She loved that it makes zoom zoom sounds when you press the licence plate at the front of the truck! It also makes beep beep sounds and siren sounds, too. Mommy liked that it doesn't play silly songs! I am now going to buy a second one for my grandson 10 months old as it was a "cousin tested and approved" toy!

We bought this for our son when he was about 7 months old. He was teething really badly, and he really gnawed on the rubbery top of the truck. Yet it didn't puncture. He wasn't an experienced crawler, but he liked to sit with it and spin the wheels. Now that he crawls all over the place, he pushes the truck with one hand, taking it along with him.

(As a footnote, I appreciate the fact that the sounds the truck makes aren't very annoying, as some toys can be.)

My almost 14 month old LOVES this truck!!! Its so soft so he can't get hurt from it and he loves to flip it upside down and play with the wheels. He also gets very excited from the revving of the engine and the sirens it has. (they're also at a great sound level so they don't scare him which is a huge plus!) It's his favorite toy right now.

A soft car for little ones and kids under 3--what a smart thing--its about time! My son is outgrowing the rattle/baby stuff at 9 mos old and we bought this because he loves vehicles--a little big and bulky so not something to take around town with you, but a fun toy to keep at home and its just perfect for bigger infants and little toddlers. (even my 3 yr old daughter likes it)

Autolino Wooden Pull Toy

I got this toy for my little one's first birthday. It's taken some abuse and held up really well. Selecta toys are excellent, high quality wood work with non toxic finishes that a type-A mom doesn't mind letting her baby chew on. A lot of the other European toy brands are actually made in China, but this one's made in Germany.

When you pull this toy along, the little driver of the car wobbles from side to side because of the uneven wheels and there's also a bell that rings. It's smaller than you might expect, but for a toddler it's the right size.

My son loves this toy! Great for development. Its bright colors and bell hat keep him interested.

Gund Spunky Motion Musical Blue 8" Toy

my son loves his dog and sleeps with him every night. we've owned two in the last 9 months b/c his grandma's dog got ahold of his stuffed dog and ripped it in two places so i just replaced it. so i am not sure how long the musical wind-up key will last. however it has lasted so far and that's after nightly use. ALSO i know from experience with his sister's wind-up teddy bear that if you put them in the washing machine (which is not recommended anyway) then it will stop playing music. at least ours did.

*update 07/04/2009

i've owned this for about a year and a half and the music box has stopped working. very disappointing considering that this was originally bought as a replacement to a pink dog i owned as a baby that my son got attached to when he was a baby, that the music box only stopped working in after about 20 years. things aren't made like they used to be.

Unfortunately, this toy broke only 1 week after we got it. The wind up part wouldn't wind.

And when it did the song was too short.

PROS: This plush pal is a perfect companion for your little one and features a large wind-up key for small hands. It also moves its head with the music.

CONS: The wind-up action is very short and my require several times of winding back up to lull a little one to sleep. Highly recommend manufacturer to change this feature.

So cute I bought with the oval roller and the pop up roller! My 4 month old loves them!

My 7-month-old likes this toy and plays with it a for a few minutes at a time on a fairly regular basis. It's very small and I was a bit surprised, but it's easy for her to hold on to, makes a little noise and it's perfectly fine. Not her favorite, but it's in the mix. The quality is great ans the wood is smooth and it feels very solidly put together.

Disney Baby Music and Lights Walker Featuring Pooh Characters, Ambrosia

I bought this walker (or a similar Safety First Disney baby walker) and it is a waste of money! I'm so mad so I hope writing this review will be therapeutic and help me relieve some steam! If I can help someone else not waste their money it'd be worth it I guess. First of all the design is stupid. Did the people at Safety First not test babies in this thing first!?!?! No baby could ever reach the ground even on the lowest setting unless they were already walking first, and then they would be above the 30 lb. weight limit suggested on the walker. My baby can barely touch the floor and when he can, the way the fabric seat is designed it makes them sit backwards. It's as if they are in a chair, and they can't lean forward to walk because the dumb tray is in the way. This makes him only able push himself backwards. Yeah, just what I want, teach my child to walk backwards. He does like the toys and will play with them for some time, but as for walking (which isn't that way you buy a walker!?!?!) it's very poorly designed! Luckily my mother-in-law had an old Graco walker that is much better that we are now using. $55 gone for a piece of junk! I really dislike poorly made products. I will never again buy a Safety 1st product.

Just got this walker for my 4-month old from a local K-Mart. He's not close to walking yet but he holds his head up and fits nicely in the seat, which is padded all around and has support . The walker was very easy to assemble, took me less than 5 minutes and everything snapped perfectly in place. It collapses easily for easy transport. He can't reach the floor yet at the lowest setting so I put a large firm pillow underneath so he can stand if he wants to. Mainly I got this walker to be able to let him sit/stand and entertain himself with the toys while I do some quick work in the kitchen or even take a shower (with him in sight of course). So the mobility issue is not a problem for me yet as I prefer him stationary right now. The toys are a bit much for him right now but you can slide it to the sides and away from his face if he's overwhelmed. Or remove altogether to use the tray. But even at 4 months he likes touching and smiles when he moves the pieces, or when we push down Pooh for music. He's in it about 15 minutes at a time. I think this was worth every cent since I can get some things done and he's happy in it.

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.

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.

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.

Woodours Mini Baby Activity Rattle and Teether Bear Take Along Toy

Since it's dark color baby liked to look at it from very first days. Jiggles, squeaks, different textures, nice size, can be attached to car seat, washable. We have HABA and other european rattles but this one is the best.

We are big fans of Geared for Imagination. Great quality, fun toys. Honestly, my child can't tell the difference between a $5 activity toy and a $20 one. I just like the brand, they bring a higher level of creativity and art to toys, that I appreciate. Who knows if my son does.

The rattle itself includes different textures along with the rattle, squeaker, and teething attachments. They also included a little velcro loop so you can attach it to activity gyms, strollers, etc. You can be sure, when purchasing this product, they aren't skimping on materials, they aren't going to fall apart after some tough chewing, pulling, and banging, and will survive thru several hand me downs

Awesome, quick & exactly what I was hoping for!

Colorful, friendly faces and makes my daughter happy! Will make bath time much more fun for her, she loves Pooh & Friends!

These are so cute but the reservoir is so shallow that it can't hold enough water to make the internal parts work. I very slowly drizzle a cup of water over it to make the pooh wheel spin. The Eyore does nothing and the elephant character has water come out it's trunk but this is to subtle to hold my toddlers attention. If the reservoir on top were deeper my son could do it on his own.

VTech - Winnie The Pooh - Call 'n Learn Phone

Like everyone else I changed the batteries thinking they had worn out but nope after changing them it was still hard to hear. Just might have to return it.

I bought this toy for my 6 month old grandson, he likes the toy somewhat. It seems if he could hold it better he would enjoy it. I'll give him about 2 months and it would probably be his favorite. I think the volume could be a little louder, but it is a great education toy.

My daughter usually likes such phone toys, pushing the buttons, etc., but there is something seriously wrong with the volume on this thing. I think maybe I got a bad phone, because I even changed the batteries and the volume is still very very low. You have to actually turn the phone over and put the speaker right to your ear to hear it. So, my daughter never plays with it. I'm thinking of just throwing it away. I suggest testing this at the store first to make sure the volume is acceptable.

Fisher-Price Team Umizoomi Vehicle - Milli

Be patient and buy this toy from Toys R US or Babies R Us, for $6.99 instead of buying from the second hand dealers. I finally got all three of them this weekend. I am not sure why they aren't sending more then 5 at a time of these toys to Toys R Us, but that's what I would do. They get the toys in on Fridays and that is when they told me to call them to see if they got more in. Then ask them to save it for you behind the counter, but they only save it for a few hours. The toy is super cute, and lots of fun! My little one is so excited, that it is hard for me to wait until her birthday to give them to her! Good size for smaller hands.

An update for this product on March 18.

My daughter had her tonsils out and as an insentive to get her to drink I pulled out Millie from my hiding place and gave it to her. It is sturdy, and incredibly cute! It also bends the legs in a way that won't break and is easy. She sits in the plane just right, and can even be snapped in so when she is flying she doesn't fall out. My daughter sleeps with her and has been playing with her and she is a good size for taking in the car. She is also water proof so she can play with her in the bath tub! Something she really enjoys! I am finding more and more of these in the stores now! Can't wait to give her the other two characters, and I am thinking they will also work as a cake topper for her birthday cake!

Team Umizoomi toys are in high demand & very hard to find which unfortunately has led to some high prices. I was able to get Milli directly by continuing to call Toys R Us until they had her in stock for $6.99. That is the price each of the 3 characters should be so I was ecstatic to get Milli for that. IMPORTANT NOTE: you must buy all 3 characters as your children will automatically want all 3 characters b/c they are Team Umizoomi. You are unable to just give one b/c they don't understand where the others are. I learned this quickly.....as soon as I gave Milli, the first question is where are Geo & Bot? Thank goodness I had made sure I bought them all before giving any of them or I would have had some sad little one's. Toys R Us never had the other 2 in stock so I watched Amazon daily. I eventually got Bot for around $11.00, but Geo never came down lower than the upper $20's. Although I'm upset that they don't have enough of these toys available which leads to price gouging, the toys themselves are very nice & look exactly like Geo, Milli & Bot. With each one you get a vehicle: Milli jet, Geo helicoptor & Bot the UMI Car which is a favorite! I really wish I could have paid $6.99 for each of them as this is how it should be, but it was worth having all 3 & paying a little more. It got kind of tiring calling Toys R Us daily & having them check the floor & back room to see if they had any (note: be sure to check their website too b/c once in great while they did have one in stock, but unless you spend a certain amount you will pay shipping & then Amazon might be a better option as it was for me). Also, I figured the time to keep calling the store, drive to the store & gas made the $11.00 for Bot okay. Geo was the highest, but that was all that was available.

If you are able to find these @ Toys R Us you will pay $6.99 each (Good Luck!!!!!); however, this has been difficult for some time as other reviews show as well.

Please make sure to buy all 3 before giving them to your children. Unless they truly have a favorite they will want the whole team & I honestly don't know why they didn't think to sell them as a team. Team Umizoomi is 3 characters & it would have been nice to purchase them as a set.

Again, good luck & I hope you find them @ the best price possible!!!!!

waited for a week after stopping in on a Monday and a Friday at Toysrus. I would wait til they have them in for $6.99. It might take awhile but you get the whole set for less than $21.00 plus tax.

My grandson who's 2 1/2 loves the show and Milli the most because of her measuring tape ponytails. This figures doesn't have a working measuring tape ponytail but he loves it just the same. She fits in a pocket easily and he loves the plane she comes with. I'll keep stopping in when I'm near a toyrus and see if I can get the other two. Toyrus says it only gets 5 in at one time and this week it was only Milli. It's almost like Cabbage Patch kids all over again finding these figures.

These are super cute toys. I have to buy them from ebay because Amazon doesn't ship them to my country. My 34 months old son has been watching Team Umizoomi and loving it. I bought these toys for him so that he can relate to the cartoon better. His eyes really brighten up when he saw "Bot" and shouted "Umicar". He got more and more excited as I took out Milli and then Geo. These are good size little dolls with their respective vehicles. They are simple but fully captured the features of the cartoon. The dolls can sit in the vehicles or taken out to play separately. However the arms are not movable.
