Wonderworld Safari Tumble Toy

Wonderworld Safari Tumble ToyI bought this toy for my twin girls around 10 months of age and they seem very interested in the toy and have even figured out how to put the balls on the top track to get them started going. I agree with the previous reviewer that the balls should be a little larger one of my girls can get the ball all the way in her mouth, too. My only other complaint is that while the edges are smooth, one of my girls bumped her head a few different times on the edge of the tracks (out toward the edge of the toy) and it left a pretty nasty bruise/mark. This is not the fault of the toy, as my little ones were learning to walk and quite clumsy at the time, but because of this I recommend this for children who are a little bit older and more stable with their walking.

Very well put together, smooth edges, great quality. My only gripe is that the balls are a touch small. My little one can get them all the way in her mouth. I thought she might be ready for this toy at 10 months, but we will have to put it away for a while until she stops wanting to eat everything. She loves the sun that moves back and forth.

1.2.3 Recycling Truck

1.2.3 Recycling TruckBought this for my grandson for Christmas via his mom's suggested list. I personally didn't like it! I thought it was rather cheap looking, and could have picked up the same type of toy at target or where ever.

I heard he likes playing with it though

The Germans know how to make high quality products. This is no exception. My 2 year old plays with it everyday as part of his daily play rotation. Playmobil 123 is perfect for 1 years and up. The toy is sturdy and well made. Watch out for price gougers.

North American Bear Flatopup Baby Cozy

North American Bear Flatopup Baby Cozy, Ivory/BlueThe product is cute, nice-to-the-touch soft material and just the perfect size for a newborn baby. I was very excited when I opened the package. Upon closer inspection, however, I noticed that the stitching was incredibly unprofessional and flimsy. The stitching was already coming apart where the neck was connection to the cozy and exposing the thread. Given that this is meant for babies who will be sticking anything they can find into their tiny mouths, this makes it potentially a choking threat to my baby. It is such a simple design and such basic stitching, I am surprised that they couldn't make it better.

Super cute and soft. I bought the dog and the bunny. They are just the right size for my two month old to snuggle. She smiles every time I give them to her. They hold up well in the wash and are easy to stick in the diaper bag. I'm thinking of buying some back-ups.

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!

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.

Little Tikes Drum

Little Tikes DrumThis drum has lasted through all of my 5 children and now our little niece. This drum is aimed for use with very young children, but older ones enjoy it as well. My twins liked to suck on the drumsticks!! It has been stood on, sat on and thrown down the stairs, holding up to everything.

Babies can make noise by hitting the soft skin of the drum, and also the hard plastic, generating different sounds and textures. It is a great alternative to pounding on furniture, heads or other objects. The drumsticks are attached to the drum with strong string. Mine have never come detatched.

I bought this toy as well as other music-makers to add to our instrument collection.

If you want to win the "coolest parent" award from your toddler/preschooler, than go ahead and give in to this drum. It isn't loud!!! No matter how hard the pounding is---it's never very loud. That is a wonderful thing. All the joys, none of the pain!

The sticks won't get lost (and our littlest found them to be a great teething knob).

Nothing broken or even slightly bent after a full year of active play by kids from the ages of 6 months to 4 years old.

There isn't a better drum out there (that will allow them creative play, rhythm, dexterity, hand-eye coordination and will still allow you to keep your sanity).

My son doesnt play with this drum until another child shows interest. The drum sticks are attached with very short cords and it's hard for him to get the sticks on the drum. they need to be a little bit longer.

What could be more fun for a 2-3 year old? Not much! Come on parents...don't be scared...what's a little more noise? A truly classic toy no kid should be without. A nice feature..the drumsticks are attached to the drum so can't be misplaced. Yeah!

Kelsyus Go With Me Chair

Kelsyus Go With Me Chair, Brown/PinkI plan to use this chair for our granddaughter when she camps with us. As she is only 15 months old, this chair should fit for years. The carrying case was not sown properly, but can be easily fixed. The problem is not worth returning it.

Wish we had got this a year ago! Much of the neat stuff is first year. Still is a great piece of baby gear for a couple of more years.

Infantino Multi-Sensory Shape Set

Infantino Multi-Sensory Shape SetI bought these toys as a "backup plan" on our first plane trip with our 8 month old. The little square toy with the ball inside alone is more than enough to entertain him. When you move it quickly or bang it against something, it squeaks and it's great for teething babies. Shopping for toys for babies who are teething and shove absolutely EVERYTHING in their mouths is not always easy, but these were just right.

My Hikes--Adjust kids pant legs! (Baseball)

My Hikes--Adjust kids pant legs!All my little boy's pants were too long and I tried everything to make them work and My Hikes are the best!! They look cute and they work really well. His pants stay rolled up even through walking, crawling, and rolling on the floor! I recommend these to everyone with short chunky monkeys like mine!

My son's pants fit him in the waist but are extremely long in his legs. My Hikes quickly fixed his problem. They are lightweight and comfortable for him to wear. He was also so excited to go to preschool and show his friends and teacher his cool my hikes.

Buy My Hikes--Adjust kids pant legs! (Baseball) Now

I ordered these for my son because he has several pairs of pants that don't stay rolled up on their own too well. I'm not sure what I was expecting, but these are basically like cute, really strong plastic paper clips. They're pretty self explanatory, you slide them over the cuff to keep it in place, but on pants such as jeans or courderoys, if you roll the cuff more than once it's too thick for the My Hikes to slide on and stay comfortably. This means you end up with a ridiculously large and ridiculous looking cuff that calls too much attention to the bottom of the pants. I still use these on his fleece pants that are too long to prevent him from slipping, but on jeans and courderoys, I just keep recuffing throughout the day because they need to be rolled more than once. They're cute and great if you only need to take an inch or so off the bottom, but for my shorty, I guess they don't work as well.

11" Treetops Giraffe

11' Treetops GiraffeI got this as a gift for my son and once I opened it I very much contemplated keeping it for myself!! Its so cuddly, so soft, so perfectly smushy!! I also had this gift packaged and it came perfectly boxed. I was a little hesitant buying a stuffed animal off Amazon, only bcs I like to feel the material its made with and I didnt know if it was just a good advert picture... but I had to try and Im so glad I did!! I am not worried about my 11 month old son nom'ing on any part of this stuffed animal.

I have been looking for this specific stuffed toy for ages. My son loves it. The material is very soft and just the right size for my two year old.

Fisher-Price Little Superstar Sing-Along Stage

Fisher-Price Little Superstar Sing-Along StageI bought this for my 9 month old and it is a big hit! She discovers new things everyday and will play with it for quite awhile. I think she will even like it better later! I do have one small minor complaint--the mirror scratches VERY, VERY easily--I cleaned with water and paper towel and the paper towel left faint scratches. It doesn't bother her, just me. Overall, I think this is a great toy!

My son is 16 months old and he loves this toy. The songs are upbeat and he loves dancing to them. Many activities to keep your little one entertained. This product can grow with your child. This is a very durable toy.

I saw this toy on television and bought it that day for my 12 month old. As soon as I got it home and set up, not only my one year old, but also my 3 year old began to play with it. They love it! Through pressing different buttons, my little one has learned more about cause and effect, and which button makes which sound. My oldest is learning to share more, and to help his brother when he can't figure something out. They pass the microphone between them, and dance and laugh for at least half and hour at a time. The only problem I had was setting it up. The screws would not fit into the hind legs, so it is missing 2 of the 4 it requires. Other than that, I cannot recommend this toy enough!

I bought this for my 6 month old daughter, who is now almost 9 months. She loved it immediately, and still plays with it for long periods of time. The buttons are easy to bang and push, and the mirror is a big hit. The songs are cute and I don't find them annoying.

My son got this for his 1 year old birthday and loved it. He especially likes to shake the microphone and bang on the keys on the front. This is very durable as he is rough with it and it still works perfect after 3 weeks. I also like that he can stand up holding onto it and the legs totally hold him. It has not tipped once!

Jellycat Moonbeam BunnyThis bunny is adorable and my daughter loves it. My daughter plays with it all the time and it is holding up very good; it is well made. The only issue we had were the eyes; they are hard plastic eyes and she could choke on them if she got the eye off somehow.

Taggies Developmental Baby Animal

Taggies Developmental Baby Animal, Pink GiraffeThis tiger is very cute, and seems to be well made. The fabric is a soft, low plush and overall it seems very cuddly. However, I was disappointed to find that all four feet contain plastic pellets. This fact was not mentioned in the product description as of the date of this review. As my older child has "beanie" toys that have developed holes and leak the beans, I am reluctant to give this to my baby for fear that it could become a choking hazard. Another reviewer stated that the toy is machine washable, but according to the tag on the toy, it is to be surface washed only.

We love this little lion, we were given him as a Christmas present and my son has loved him ever since. He is so soft to snuggle and my son loves to hold the tags too, and this little lion also helps my son go to sleep! I can machine wash him also, which is a big plus. We just purchased a second one just in case anything ever happens to the first one, we have a spare, that's how much we love him!

I also gave him as a baby shower gift, so I highly recommend him!

Hello Kitty Tutu Costume Dress

Hello Kitty Tutu Costume Dress - Toddlerexcluding the kello kit tiara with the ears that it comes with, I don't think this is a costume. It's just a regular dress with lower quality.

Some Macy's store has a section with hello kitty themed clothes where I found the cutest hello kitty dress ever! After I found this dress I started to keep second thoughts on what I paid for this dress.

But you won't find a dress with a huge hello kitty head on the front like this one of course. I would say I found cute clothes, dresses and even tutu hello kitty skirts at Macy's. The quality also is good and it's something you can have your girl wearing on regular days, different from this costume that would be fine to use in a party only once.

Great costume, but the glitter on the skirt gets everywhere! I bought this for our 18-month-old and it was adorable, but everywhere she went she left a trail of glitter.

Lady Bug

Lady BugThis toy looks fun, but the ladybug head always gets stuck when it is pushed down and it is hard for a toddler to really enjoy this product because it is frustrating to re-align it. The idea is great for teaching cause and effect, but I think there are probably better toys out there that are similar. My child has more fun pushing down our OXO salad spinner instead of this, even though their aren't colorful balls involved. Good idea, but the design is just not very good because the ladybug top slips out of alignment.

We ordered this toy for our public library's toddler program. Unfortunatley, we are returning it because the head of the ladybug constantly gets stuck and the balls do not pop, roll or do anything. Very colorful, nice concept, but disappointing!

Elf Boy Toddler or Infant Costume

Baby Elf Infant / Toddler Costume Size ToddlerI bought this because my son is going to be in a parade! He's only 5 months old, so I was really hoping the 6-12 month would fit him (doesn't come smaller). Sadly, no-it's HUGE. We're taking up the legs a little, and probably also taking in the seams of the jacket. I would say it definitely tends to the more 12 month range than the 6 month. It's a cute outfit, cuter than the others I've seen out there, so to me it's worth messing with a little to get it to fit. The only thing that concerned me was when I opened the package, there were a lot of loose threads stuck on the jacket. I hope this doesn't mean it will unravel later! I'll update the review if it does.

This elf costume was perfect! My son looked adorable next to his sister in her mrs. Claus dress! The shirt and pants are high quality. It didn't look like a cheap costume.

The seller sent it much sooner than stated so I was very pleased with my experience. I ordered the outfit a bit large since I wasn't sure if it would be smaller after washing but it was actually a tiny bit large for size so I would suggest buying the actual size since it experienced no shrinking. The only issue I had was with the product, NOT the seller, after washing, the red stripping on the hat and sleeves faded quite substantially to a pink. This was not something my husband was ok with our son wearing, so I just bought a red fabric marker and colored in the stripes. :) Other than that, we loved it! He'll be wearing it for Christmas :)

It is a very cute costume for the Christmas season and due to the fact that it is made of velvet it makes the costume more rich. It is very good to use for the Christmas photos and family/friends dinners. It is very comfortable to wear but I would suggest to wear your boy thick under vest and tights because the material is not very thick. My son really likes the costume and wants to pose everywhere with it to take photos :o)>

Earlyears Baby Farm Friends Bowling

Earlyears Baby Farm Friends BowlingThis is a nice little set of plush animal bowling pins and a soft ball with which to knock them down. We purchased it when our youngest child was an infant (he's now 16 months) and his brother was a toddler set on throwing everything he could get his hands on. The soft aspect of the toys drew us to them, as did the different sounds, which would appeal to the baby. As it turns out, neither of them have ever really used it for the intended purpose the older child (now 2.5 years) prefers body bowling over using the ball! He sets up some of the pins and then jumps off of the couch into the middle of them. I have only two complaints about the toys. First of all, they attract animal hair and other floor muck very easily and are difficult to clean. We have two dogs, and the pins often seem to have more dog hair on them than the dogs! Secondly, they can be hard for the kids to stand up on the carpet. After a few tries on his own, the 2 year old gets frustrated and walks away or, if he's in a bad mood, starts tossing them all over the living room. Ultimately, this is probably a set better suited to a pet-free household or a no/low pile carpet floor.

I hate to be the bad apple, but these pins were more frustrating for my 20-month-old than fun. It is very difficult to get the pins to stand up...even for an adult. And, if you have a pet, pet hair really sticks to the fabric they're made of.

I bought this for my second grandson's 1st birthday. The whole family loves it. (even the adults) The ball makes noise and the pins are soft enough that even if a pin battle breaks out it doesn't hurt.

My 19 month-old son got this as a gift from his great-grandmother. In the three weeks since it arrived at the house, he has been walking around with one or more of the pins under his arm. He takes them to bed with him and I can hear him over the monitor making kissing noises with them. Suffice it to say, he LOVES it. My 5 month-old is starting to love it as well (especially the cow). I would recommend it for any baby or toddler, especially an affectionate one.

My baby clearly isn't bowling yet, but is having a great time knocking these down with her hands and shaking them to hear the different sounds. If we set them up on the sofa across the room she will cruise/crawl to them in order to know them over and pick them up and shake them. The ball is a good size for her hands, and also makes noise. I suppose when she's older we'll eventually get to the bowling aspect.
