I am a collector of scale cubes and this is without a doubt already my favorite. 1cm Gold Polished Scale cube is incredible, beautifully designed. This gold reflection really brings out the best in whatever you take a picture of. On a scale of 1-10 this cube rates a 10. The finish is stunning, the letters are in the right places. It's a Home Run!

If one does technical documentation through photography-these are a must have. In fact, I recommend at least three colors to accommodate the range of materials one is photographing. The presence of a scale cube in your photo enhances the usability and elevates the work from mere "snapshot" to professional illustration. The scale cube eliminates the need for an unsightly ruler which may distract from the beauty of the object being illustrated.

The cubes themselves are a work of precision art that all techno-types would appreciate. Even if you don't know what camera matching "accessory" to get for the photo-geek in your life, you can give this one and have no fears of disappointment.

The gold cube is very aesthetic in its own right but, don't fail to look at the rest of the line including the tungsten and black brushed non-reflective versions. The only improvement I could suggest is a custom form-fitted case for three so I can comfortably keep in my camera bag knowing I can find them easily when I need them in the field for my macro shots.

Before the cube was available, many photographers used a coin for scale but internationally, many different coins are used. A scale cube takes away any ambiguity and makes the photo less "busy", allowing the eye to focus on the object of interest. For those who seek that extra "tactile thrill", there is nothing like holding one of these in your hand. The precision craftsmanship is apparent through one's finger tips as well.

I guess you can tell I am a grateful fan-but these are such an improvement over the old way of doing things and I really do enjoy having included in my camera gear.

Buy NEW Leapster 2 Recharging Station (Toys)

Customer Ratings:

This was a gift to my grandson. He is still pretty young to do all that can be done with this Leapster 2. But I have been told that he loves it.

My daughter LOVES her Leapster 2. She has had it for two years, since she was 1 1/2. She loves her game so much that keeping batteries ( and Im sure most of you know you have to use good quality batteries) in the system was fleeting. She would go through a set of 4 in 1 day. I am so thankful they made this charger and I am so happy with it. I keep the battery pack full just in case we go out on a long trip, but the charger is perfect for at home. A must buy if your child has a Leapster 2 and loves it!

Discount miniLUK Advance - Geometry

Customer Ratings:

Although I love the miniLuk controller (and the regular Luk controller as well), these 2 particular books can be very frustrating. They are not like the other miniLuk books where you put the controller over the book. For ONLY these 2 books (I own many of the miniLuk books, plus Geometry 1 and 2) you put the controller next to the book. It is very hard to remember whether you put the QUESTION TILE onto the answer number block or if you look at the question number and grab the ANSWER TILE. I'm not sure this makes sense without the controller and book in front of you, but believe me, there are two very different ways to think about this type of puzzle, and the directions that go along with the book are not that great. The rest of the miniLuk books I have prevent this problem by requiring you to put the controller over the answer pictures. If you buy these two books, be prepared to sit down and spend some time making sure your child is thinking about this the right way!! (and possibly getting frustrated if your brain is one that naturally thinks the opposite way from the way it's intended to be used)

Reviews of LEGO Education DUPLO Figures Family Set 779215 (87 Pieces)

Customer Ratings:

I teach nursery school, and all 20 of the kids I have over the course of a week LOVE this set. Since it's compatible with Duplo it can be combined with pieces you may already have. The play is very flexible and open-ended. I like that it comes with clothing for the multicultural dolls, since there's always someone in this age group obsessed with getting everyone dressed and undressed.

I realize that this set is expensive. I'm not sure I would have purchased it for my own children given the cost, but I can tell you that even the older siblings of my students don't want to walk away from it so you'll get years of use for it. It's not baby-ish, either. I highly recommend it if you have the moola for it.

Reviews of Stack & Smile Crocodile

Customer Ratings:

We are peek a freaks and love this little crocodile. My son mostly likes the noises it makes, but is just in the last few months figuring out how to stack the blocks on the crocodiles back. He was about 6 months when he got this and learned very fast how to make the crocodile make noises, and how to open his back to get to the blocks stored inside.

My 1 year old daughter loves this toy. When you open the crocodile's mouth it makes music or growls. She loves the sounds and loves to put the blocks in and out of his mouth. Highly recommend this toy!

Honest reviews on Stack & Smile Crocodile

This toy is currently going for $85 on amazon. Waaaay too much. FP's own website says $29.99. Probably still too much.

This toy basically makes some noise when the mouth opens or the back opens. It comes with these blocks which are kind of awkward b/c they don't stay stacked together well.

Its got a few good things going for it.

Positives:

Little hands can stack the blocks well b/c they latch easily (just don't stay that way)

It makes sound

It has storage for the blocks but only 4 of them actually that's probably just the right number for this age group. I wouldn't buy more. If your kid needs more then it's lego time.

Negatives:

This toy is just plain weird. Why a crocodile? Why would a crocodile want blocks stacked on it? Why doe a crocodile's back open up? Nothing about this makes any real world sense.

The little blocks have little things inside them. That's kind of neat but the age range this is intended for probably won't even notice it. It's a detail on a toy when infant/toddlers are looking at big concepts.

So its kind of a novel toy, but 30 bucks? If i'm going to spend that kind of money it had better be an AWESOME toy. Frankly this toy annoys me just for the space it takes up there are so many OTHER toys out there that are better.

The noise the little crocodile noises are kind of cute, but i kind of hate the sound of the blocks inside the crocodile when they are stored. Kind of like "clunkety clunk clunk" really loud. I dread touching this thing if my son is asleep.

The blocks fit inside, but they don't lock inside. If the toy tips over, the blocks go everywhere. If you were planning on throwing this in a toybox forget it. It needs to be stored on a shelf. That in itself is a bummer.

Yeah, it gets good marks from a kids perspective, but as the parent i kind of don't really like it a lot.

If I saw it at a garage sale I might get it, if it was $5 or less.

Discount Fisher-Price Fun-2-Learn Limited Edition Computer Cool School

Customer Ratings:

as much as I love the idea of this game, I got it right as my daughter started to show left handedness. This makes it really hard to have the keyboard on one side then lean across your whole body to write. You would think in 2009/10 handedness would be less of an issue but you cannot change sides on the writing area. This bothers me but overall the toy is very good for toddlers (I purchased for a 2 year old) on up, you don't NEED to buy the extra games, there is quite a bit that comes with it.

Very pleased with this toy. Allows my daughter to be independent with the computer. Easy single push button access to applications. Easy to manipulate between activities. Makes her feel as if she can really "do it herself". Loves the pink keyboard. Easy to install and competitively priced through Amazon. May be worth noting that the Computer Cool School requires a computer and monitor. Also good to know that the letter and number cards for the writing application come with the keyboard and do not have to be purchased separately. Great item.

Best Fisher Price Lazy Town Music Transporter Deals

Customer Ratings:

I know this toy is rated for children 3-yr+ but since my 20-mo old son really loves lazy town show, I though this item would be a great present for him, and I wasn't wrong, he absolutely loved it! It's a great way to keep him singing and dancing and of course having a fun time, especially when Stephanie sings "There's always a way", he can be at any place and as soon as he listened it he comes to sing and dance.

I bought 2 pieces because I know that when he loves a toy he plays and plays and plays with it until it got damaged, and it happened, he was pressing buttons to many times to listen the songs and sometimes pressed 2 buttons at same time that finally the toy was failing (not all times), and when he realized the toy was damaged he started crying in a way that I got my heart broken, his face expressed so many sadness that I explained him that sometimes it can happen, but "there's always a way" and immediately I searched for the 2nd piece, you can imagine the bright on his eyes when he realized he has another one working perfectly well.

Definitely, it's a great toy if you want your children singing and dancing all the time.

Buy Eeboo Counting Birds Wall Cards

Customer Ratings:

This artwork is beautiful and detailed. I love how it appears to be made of different fabric patterns. This is great to introduce babies/toddlers to counting and birds. My baby loved looking at the pictures and having us count the birds aloud (over an over again). Now my toddler is starting to count the birds and to differentiate between the different colors/birds. The cards are durable and hold up well for its' purpose (durable poster board). Did I mention the art was beautiful?

These counting cards make gorgeous nursery pictures! I found some cheap frames from a craft store, spray painted them white and framed all 10 cards, then hung in groups of 2 around my daughter's room. They are beautiful! I got the idea from a friend who had done the same, only with dark wood frames for her son's room. They are very high quality with nice coloring and fairy tale type pictures. Lovely!

These cards are just beautiful in person. What a great way to introduce a bit of nature into a child's life and at the same time learn their numbers.

They are printed on a sturdy paper that is matte on the front and glossy on back. That was great thinking because there is no issue with glare on the front, but I can use puddy on the back to attach it to the wall without it ripping the paper when I want to move these.

Definitely worth purchasing.

Cheap Frightened Grasshopper Robot - Mini Solar Kit

Customer Ratings:

I got this on sale for under four bucks. This toy is like the silicone vibrating bugs that were very popular, except it doesn't need batteries. It is a nice way to show the younger kids the concept of power coming from light and sun.

The main problem with this bug is that it need really bright sun before it can start moving around. On a mild cloudy day it will vibrate just a little bit. But indoor, it cannot move even if you shine it direct with a strong flashlight.

The head detaches very easily and you may want to put superglue on it. The legs are made of steel not the silicone legs popular with the other bugs.

We were looking and searching for the switch since we couldn't make it move when we first unpack it. I thought we received a DOA bug, but what it needs is a really bright sun.-

Bought a couple of these as stocking fillers. My boys loved them! Not sure how long they'll last as they seem quite flimsy and only seem to work when in very bright sunshine but they met our expectations and kept the boys entertained while we cooked on Christmas morning.

Best Deals for Frightened Grasshopper Robot - Mini Solar Kit

Bought this for my son and first, yes it needs *direct* and *bright* sun to work at all. Then all it does is vibrate around. It's not a kit or anything. You just take it out, put it in sunlight and then ask, 'That's it???'

I've tried adjusting the legs, seeing if having one side bent up more could make it stutter in that direction and make more interesting, but no luck.

Dull.

Honest reviews on Frightened Grasshopper Robot - Mini Solar Kit

Bought three of these to build with my daughter and have solar robot cricket races. Unfortunately a big part of the reason for getting these is moot, this is not actually a kit, it is fully built and ready to go. Maybe it's the seller I got it from I don't know but the robots are fun. The educational value is severely curtailed since I couldn't build it with my daughter and that is very disappointing.

When i first got it i was really excited and immediately poured some in a bowl and put a magnet over it. The magnet was much stronger than i thought it was so, of course, the fluid got EVERYWHERE. I didn't give it a 5 because it was VERY hard to clean up and stained my jeans but i probably should have expected that. My bottle is sealed in a plastic baggie and every once in a while I like to get some out and play with it. I wonder what will happen if i light some on fire first? Anyway... I highly recommend this as something to play/experiment with.
