For children interested in horses this is a great and educational gift.

Educational Insights GeoSafari Phonics Lab Reviews
My kindergarten kids use this toy at a learning center. It's a fun way for students to sing the alphabet song, learn their letters and sounds, and create 3 letter words, and it's also very importantly something they can do independently. The first time I bought the phonics lab it lasted several years. I bought a new one just a couple of months ago, however, and it no longer works. I have a feeling the toy arrived defective and I'm disappointed!

21" Turquoise Gemstone Globe with 3-Leg Gold Stand Reviews
here in Europe you can consider it a unique piece, couldn't find it anywhere than ordering it directly from the States... very beautiful... saw it once in a shop on a cruise-ship, but than the box was to large to handle as a passenger...
Keep in mind that the custom charges for Europe are expensive: 80 euro's extra I had to pay on delivery...
As packaging concerns: one leg of the tripod was lose and scratched the compass part... overall several little scratched areas on as well the globe as on the brassed parts

Best The Learning Journey Count and Learn ATM Machine Deals
excellent seller, highly recommend, high quality at a great price fast shipping I give it 5 star because is super interesting, children can learn by playing,I purchased this toy for my friend's little girl's birthday. As soon as she opened it, she had to have it out of the box to start playing with it. As she started playing with the toy, my son became very interested and wanted to play with her. They are both learning their colors and numbers so this is a great tool to learn while having fun. They would repeat the numbers and colors that the ATM machine would call out and count as they inserted their coins into the machine. With the three different games that this toy has, the kids played forever switching back and forth. My son had so much fun with it I went out and purchased antoher one for my son to have at home. He thinks that he is a grown up now that he can go to his ATM Machine just like his parents!

Cheap Wonderworld Sprinter Caterpillar Wooden Pull-Along Toy
We bought this for our granddaughter's first birthday. She was delighted before the paper was completely off the toy, squealed with happiness and carried it around. When she realized she could also pull or push it, (she does walk already) she spent even more time playing with it. In fact, it became a travel toy as well as an at-home play thing for awhile. The colors and the movement are fun for her and it is still a big hit.
we came home later that day to find our dog had chewed off the antennas and there was some glue still there, not sure what kind of glue this is, but it can't be good if our dog went after it and it's the only area our daugther wanted to mess with on it...sounds addictive...

Cheap Melissa & Doug Latches Board
We bought this for our 19 month old to take on a plane trip as the "new" toy to entertain her when needed. She *loved* playing with it through the entire trip. it's a bit big for a carryon, but we fit it in. It is now a car toy that gets swapped out upon occasion with others. The back of the puzzle says 4+, but I think it's a good challenge for younger children. There are 2 latches that she needs adult help with because they are too tough to move. I'm sure she'll grow into those with time, though.
updated 9/07:
My almost 3yo can now do all of the latches on this puzzle-has been able to for several months, now.
The latch puzzle that we purchased was terrible. The sliding latch door lock simply fell out of the latch when you moved the puzzle thus was to easy and way to loose. The most disapointing is the window latch and trunck latch. Both these two required adult hand strength to open! I had to hold the puzzle flat with one hand and grip the window latch with the other in order to manipulate it open. And I have very strong hands and it was hard for me (an adult) to open!! Perhaps it was JUST our puzzle. So I returned it. The other puzzles are sold in tight plastic wrap and so we weren't able to TRY another latch to see if it is not so HARD. So that is 3 defunct out of 6 latches that my daughter wasn't able to play with. That's half the toy that wasn't workable or child friendly and NOT worth the money.

I bought this for my son was he was 14 months old, he is now a very inquistive 3 year old. Within a few weeks, he had mastered it (except for the one lock that is hard to turn). It is wonderful for practicing dexterity, and great for travel. The only thing is, once they master this puzzle, they can then open all the locks and latches in your home--which can definitely be a safety hazard!Best Deals for Melissa & Doug Latches Board

Honest reviews on Melissa & Doug Latches Board
This "latches" board is great practice for problem-solving and manual dexterity/manipulation for toddlers/preschoolers. I got this one mixed up with the "locks" board--much more complicated and for older children. I caught the difference just before I purchased it, so I did end up with this one--the right one. Our 15-mo-old dtr. likes to fiddle with it for quite a while--she hasn't figured out all of the latches and needs a little help, but she also likes to look at the animals inside the doors. Our 3-yr-old likes to open/close the locks and doors, and it keeps his attention for several minutes (which is good considering his short attention span). Even our 5-yr-old will play with it a little, but I don't think it does much for him developmentally. The only setback is that two of the latches are attached very tightly and so far, only the adults have been able to open those doors. Probably just a problem when it was made. Overall, a good developmental toy to have around the house.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Melissa & Doug Latches Board
I bought this for my 18 month old daughter. Although she can't manage to open the locks up just yet, she loves opening the doors and playing "peek-a-boo" with the animals she finds. She opens the barn door can say "Cow....Moooooooooo!" I bought this more for fine-motor-development but since her little fingers can't manage the locks, we're still enjoying it as an educational toy. I ask her where the doggie is and she opens the doors (that I leave unlocked) and finds the doggie. She's having fun with it in a way that I wasn't expecting.Thursday, September 4, 2014
Miniland Magnetic Numbers Review
One of my children (aged 9 yrs) has a hard time with his writing (fine motor skills)... he gets his math calculations incorrect due to the messiness of his writing. The last two years have been a struggle... anything with writing elicited a battle of wills (despite him being smart and a full grade level above others his age). This year, I bought Miniland Magnetic Numbers as a help... he uses them to create his equation and calculate the answer and then writes the answer on his worksheet. We are four weeks in to our homeschool year and I can now say this idea has been a blessing to our days! No more wrong answers due to messy writing that even he has trouble reading! We are still working on neatness, but it is no longer an issue in our math lessons :) I am very pleased with the product and know that we will use it for our younger children as well.

Buy Colorful Magnetic Rings - Set of 6
This was purchased to be used by the museum as part of our educational materials for elementary students. These magnets were an addition to other magnetic materials and have held up very well but we caution that these should no be used with children who put things in their mouths.

Solar Powered Bobble Head Kissing Boy And Girl Home Decoration Car Review
My mother enjoyed this solar powered toy. She told me that the girl bobbles her head more than the boy. She said that she have to give the little boy a little knock on the head. Then, he keeps up with the girl. A cute toy to be given as a gift for any occasion. It will bring a smile to your face.

Reviews of Set of 2 Ladybug Maracas
My granddaughter loved these. Her face lit up when I got them out. She goes around "shaking them". Made well. I would recommend.My daughter loved playing with her cousins maracas, so I decided to get her a pair. I saw these online and had to get them. Since we got them, they are my daughters favorite. She crawls with them where ever she goes, and they are the first to be picked up and played with.

Reviews of Bilingual Elmo
My 8 month old daughter loves Elmo, and loves this toy. It is fun and educational, but, the problem that my Husband and I found was that we don't understand the Spanish version of the "Sunny Day" theme song. My husband is fluent in spanish thanks to his Mexican heritage and upbringing, but, we can't make out most of the words, we suspect it is Castillion Spanish (Which is not what they speak in Mexico), but it is hard to say for certain because of Elmos highpiched voice. We tried, unsuccessfully, to find the lyrics to the spanish version. I would say that for our family, this was the only drawback of the toy.
Her baby brother got interested in Elmo a couple of months ago and adopted Bilingual Elmo, who had by then lost his prime position in big sis's heart. We have certainly gotten our, or my sister's, money out of this toy! My daughter is now seeking to reclaim her friend so I am ordering a new Elmo for little bro, although I'm not getting him the talking version. Since this doll's primary purpose has been snuggling I'm getting a simpler, smaller, cheaper, lighter plush Elmo. I'm the one who schlepped Bilingual Elmo (and his heavy internal electronic parts) around countless airports, so I figure for round 2 I might as well lighten my own load, and it will be all the same to my son.

I gotta hand it to the creative geniuses at Sesame Workshop -Elmo is the most seductive character of all time. My husband and I had shielded our daughter from all television (except NFL football!) and yet one of her first words, at age 19 months or so, was "Elmo." Or actually "ELMO! ELMO! ELMO!" I don't know how she knew about him, but our daughter LOVED Elmo and expressed that love loudly and often. When I took her to visit her newborn cousin she fell in love with an Elmo-framed mirror and dragged it around Arizona with her. On our last day there my sister presented her with her very own Bilingual Elmo, the only cuddly Elmo toy in stock at the mall toy store. Over the next three years Elmo racked up 1000s of frequent flyer miles, and hours of snuggling. We took him everywhere, as he was her absolutely favorite toy. I've had to repair a couple of rips in his fur, but to be honest I'm shocked that he didn't just fall apart. After much abuse, I mean, loving, he still looks pretty good and his voicebox still works perfectly. In other words, the quality of the materials is very good. As for educational value, I think it would have been pretty easy for me to teach her how to say "sol," "adios," and "amigo" without Elmo, so there's not that much added there, but a little exposure to Spanish is better than none. We have had his voice turned off for several months, actually.Her baby brother got interested in Elmo a couple of months ago and adopted Bilingual Elmo, who had by then lost his prime position in big sis's heart.

Buy LeapFrog Explorer Learning Game: Disney Tangled
This was a gift for my two daughters (3 and 6 years old) and they love it. The youngest struggled at the beginning but is becoming much more fluent. The 6 yr. old has completed the game twice, but will still play it again. They both love how you can "unlock" items from the treasure box. I like that I can put my daughters spelling words for the week on the Leapster, and they are incorporated into the game. This game and Tinker Bell's Lost Treasure have been their favorites so far. Toy Story is ok, but is not played nearly as often.

I bought this game for my 5 year old son and 3 year old daughter to share, but I thought my "tough guy" wouldn't like it. I was sure wrong! They both love this game, it isn't super princessy. It has several activities to choose from, according to the leap path, this has been the most played game by both of them this week.Best Deals for LeapFrog Explorer Learning Game: Disney Tangled
This is a great game for the leapster explorer. It says step by step instructions. My 4 year old can figure out how to play every game. She caught on really quick and loves it! It is a great educational game that really focus' on reading and identifying letters. We give it 5 stars!Honest reviews on LeapFrog Explorer Learning Game: Disney Tangled
Maybe I'm missing something in this game but it is not what I expected. I bought it for my 3 and 6 yr old girls who are in love with Rapunzel and Flynn. The 6 yr old will play occasionally, and it is nice I can upload her current weeks spelling list into the system thru leapfrog connect and she can work on the words for that week, though it doesn't always work right for some reason and she doesn't play it enough in one week for it to be useful this way. The game ismore like an ebook or what they call Ultraebook as you have to go thru the story first, which my kids keep just turning the page toget thru faster. The 3 yr old has no interest at all except in the art center or whatever it is called to draw freehand. Once you play you can connect to leapfrog connect and download "micromods"...I made the mistake of getting everything they offered with their tokens, however, my youngest doesn't have a leappad, she has a leapster explorer and micromods take up WAY too much space on the leapster! She wasn't able to take photos anymore w/her camera attachement so I had to delete the micromods off her leapster explorer and now it is back to just being the reg. art studio. It is just an "ok" game, nothing I highly recommend unless you are getting a GREAT deal on the game with a sale.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for LeapFrog Explorer Learning Game: Disney Tangled
I bought this game for my son who just turned 4 because he loved the movie. He really loves this game! He got the Leapster Explorer and three games for Christmas. He loved Mr. Pencil so much that he wouldn't even try the other two games. Then, he got this game for his birthday which is shortly after Christmas, and now he's been playing this one instead.Tuesday, April 29, 2014
