Sculpting is ok but not scientifically accurate. Painting needs customizing for a less "factory" look. Not all parts fit easily.

Parts come loose in the package during transit and some of the paint gets dammaged.

Probably good for careful patient children, otherwise, maybe not.

This product is great. My twin 5 year old boys loved it. They sat all evening doing the experiments from the cards that come in the box. The cards show step by step what they are to do. Even when their Grandpa wasn't there they could still do the different techniques that were on the card. This is a great teaching tool.

This makes a great starter set for introducing kids to magnets! It has a lot of fun pieces to do lots of different experiments. It also comes with 14 experiment cards that give you a lot of fun ideas and really help bring the fun of magnets to life. One experiment my 3.5 year old loves to play is rubber-banding the magnet bar to the top of his Tonka car and "pushing" it along the table using another magnet. He gets to see it move without touching it while making a game out of it with his cars. The set also comes with some foam pieces to make boats you can push through the water, in a bath or in a bowl. There are a bunch of washers and nuts you can stack or hang off of the wand and form some neat structures. My kids love to use the magnet balls too. We play a game of roll and catch with them using the wand. A compass comes with the set, but it's a little small and made fairly cheap to get much use out of. We have a larger compass and we use that instead. The variety of the pieces and experiment cards make this set a great value and fun experience for kids!

I bought this for my 5-year old daughter for Christmas and she really enjoys playing with all the magnets. There are some activity/experiment cards which we have been using. The cards help give unmderstanding about how and why magnets work. She is facinated by all the included magnets and can spend quite a bit of time playing while learning about cause & effect. I think this a great product!

Honest reviews on Lauri - Fun with Magnets

This is a great product. MY daughter is almost 3, at her preschool they have a several sets similar to this one. I had been looking for something comprable to the ones she had at school. The price on this is amazing. I was originally looking on Lakeshore and I would have had to pay double. This toy will be for her to begin experimenting with magnets and I think its a great starter set. I plan to hide magnetic objects in a bin covered with rice or whatever and let her seek the items out, should provide many fun moments.

I purchased this as a Homeschool science tool. It is fun and educational. The experiment cards are detailed and lessons in themselves. Great even for free play.

Review of MEGAshield KIT for Arduino MEGA 2560 R3

Customer Ratings:

#1 The board allows you to stack another board on top of it. The row next to the standard pin location is connected to the pin row. This allows you to use whatever pins you want and leave the rest alone which may pass on to the card you stack on top. This is true for even the double row of digital pins on the end. Their duplicate is the white strip.

#2 The double row connected in the middle is positive and negative. You select 3.3v or 5v by soldering in a jumper.

#3 TWI/I2C has 4 connections in addition to the standard connections on pins 20 & 21.

#1 is the most important and I couldn't find any other board like it.

I have bought several of these after breadboarding a number of circuits with the first. They will form the sensor I/O star around a LAMP configured Raspberry Pi whose purpose will only be buffering of data if necessary, and the Xmission of data to the main server.

Honest reviews on MEGAshield KIT for Arduino MEGA 2560 R3

I agree with all the other reviews. This is an excellent board and much better than the board available from Sparkfun, which I own. The only reason I am removing a star is because it was missing the jumper.

I would have liked a component list printed with the package.

This is by far the most convenient shield for the Arduino Mega that I've seen.

Instead of just a raw board (which would also be ok), there are several great features, such as an I2C bus area, a general purpose switch, and the DIP area. I had trouble finding a spot for some of my larger components (they would cross the VCC/GND bus or some other reserved pin), but ultimately everything fit. More importantly, fitting these components in around the features is a very small price to pay for the enormous convenience gained by all those well thought out hard wirings.

So with all those features, how many components can it realistically fit? On this single shield, I now have a GPS receiver, 3 axis accelerometer, 3 axis rotation rate sensor, magnetometer, altimeter, data logger (all on breakout boards), a piezo speaker, and 2x5 pin connector drawn to 10 of the Arudino's pins, and I still could fit a level shifter and a small SMD component. I can't really expect more on a prototyping board.

Even if I had a stack of other types of Mega shields just sitting on my desk, I'd still buy this shield to save myself all the little headaches. Great board.

Buy eeBoo Tell Me a Story - Mystery in the Forest

Customer Ratings:

We bought these for our 5-year-old received these for Christmas -a big hit! The cards are really high quality and durable. The illustrations are sweet and funny, just right for inspiring some good, wacky, nonsensical, mysterious -you name it -stories. As our 5-year-old is just learning to read, these have given her some new ways to think about storytelling and to build those cognitive skills as she develops her reading skills. Our 7-year-old is an avid storyteller and is enjoying them, too. Even our 2 1/2-year-old loves the pictures (she thinks the owl dressed in a police officer's hat talking to squirrels in a tree is hilarious). We know she will grow into these further, and the quality means they'll have some staying power. Highly recommended for good family fun and alone-time play that builds storytelling skills.

I bought these for my four year old daughter, as she has a very active imagination and loves to pretend play. The cards are lovely water color drawings on nice, heavy cardstock. They come in a neat little box with tray that slides in and out. The fist time we opened them, it took a little bit of time for her to get the hang of making up a story, but she got better with it as we went on and my helping her by taking turns. I agree that they do take up quite a bit of room to lay them all out at once, but she found this a little overwhelming anyway. So, I grouped them up as best I could (the pictures have lots of overlap to allow building the stories). Now when she opens them, there are small sets that *could* make a somewhat logical story. I think as she gets the hang of it, we'll be able to use more and more cards. These would make an excellent Christmas gift, and just hearing my little one tell ME the story is absolutely priceless!

Honest reviews on eeBoo Tell Me a Story - Mystery in the Forest

Of the different games we have, Candyland, Memory, Go Fish, Guess Who, and even most of the apps on our iPhone, this is our favorite one. My three year old and I both love this game, her for the entertainment, and me both for it's educational value and the amount of fun we have playing it. I felt that I wasn't very good at making up stories, but my daughter was always asking for a new story. This game has helped us both become far better story tellers. I am amazed at the stories that both of us are able to make up. If you want to encourage your child to love reading, this is a great place to give them a love for stories. If they love something, they will be very motivated to learn. It improves their memory as you have the kids repeat stories. And their creativity just blossoms. I can't recommend this highly enough.

Rather than take a lot of heavy books on the road, I take this small box of cards. It does take up a lot of space, so it is better to spread them out on a hotel bed rather than in the airplane.

I bought the Fairy Tale Mix-up for a friend, and she said the card didn't have as many different items in each picture. She found it was harder to make up new stories without the various items that the Forest Story Cards contained.

I bought this for my 4yo daughter, and she loves to play with these cards. We've played several different ways, and so far the best variation for her now is to deal 5-6 random cards in the deck and allow her to re-arrange them into any order and tell her story. (Dealing out all 36 cards was a bit overwhelming for her to start with.) We take turns dealing 5-6 cards to my daughter, myself, my husband, and even my 2yo daughter (she get 3 cards) and we will all take turns telling stories. My 4yo's stories have gotten a lot more creative. My 2yo loves to hear everyone's stories, and her stories are usually just very literal accounts of what she sees on the cards. My 4yo enjoys trying to pull a story out of her by asking questions like, "But why is the owl wearing a hat??" So far, this has been a lot of fun for all four of us.

Playgro Elephant Shape Sorter Review

I bought a similar toy when I had my first baby 10 years ago and always wanted something soft attached to it for different uses. I'm happy that Playgro thought about that. I love this brand too much. This is a very good toy! The pieces are just the right size and primary bright colors. I really recommend it. I'm a happy aunt thrilled to buy all these toys again.

I love the vivid colors! The pieces that fit into the elephant are perfect size without causing a concern that

they are too small for young toddlers or too big for little hands to grasp. Great toy and well worth the price, which is reasonable.

Review of Halloween Budget Life-Size Human Skull - Fourth Quality (Item #

Customer Ratings:
List Price: $17.95
Sale Price: $15.69
Today's Bonus: 13% Off

If you are looking for a good quality but economically feasible skull for an art project or Halloween, look no further. This resin skull is definitely both Budget and Fourth Quality, but is far above the quality of anything you will find in stores. Detail of seams, graduation of bones, teeth, even areas of tendon attachment are represented fairly well, and the material used to make it is incredibly durable.

The only complaint I have is the hinges and the closing clasp being inferior quality, but then again you get what you pay for. Replacing the hinges and clasp with something better shouldn't be a problem.

Overall, this is a steal.

I received this item in pieces. It was packed in a box and then inside an Amazon box. The interior box was open. half the eyes socket and nose were broken off, teeth were missing from the skull, and the springs that hold the jaw on were broken. I know it is a fourth quality skull and a little glue will fix it right up, but you would expect that an item at this price would be in better condition. I fell like I bought a used item.

It is what it is...4th quality. Skull doesn't match up (substantial recessed gap from forehead to top half of skull (1/4"). The hooks to hold skull on are useless because they too don't match up. The skull it self is .....ok. I wanted to use it to cast molds from, but it look is like I will have to do some extra work to smooth out some mismatched areas. I think I would have spent a few extra buck to get a higher quality skull. I imagine for instructional use it would be fine!

Review of Learning Resources - Alphabet Toss n Play Activity Set

Customer Ratings:
List Price: $26.99
Sale Price: $26.59
Today's Bonus: 1% Off

This product comes with a booklet full of fun activities to do with your toddler to help them learn the alphabet. I've used many of their suggested games, and the children have enjoyed them all. It isn't the most requested alphabet game that I have in my preschool, but never fails to entertain the group when I pull it out. I'm pretty picky about what I use to teach, and I'd prefer that the letters weren't crooked and that a more basic font was used, but that doesn't bother the children at all. They seem attracted to the bright colors and they don't seem to have too much difficulty identifying the letters.

We bought the two-pack version of this toy because we had several kids coming to stay. It's a blast. The rockets easily flew 100 feet or more (I'm not good at estimating). The rockets can be aimed to shoot straight up or lower to hit targets. We spent so much time stomping that our legs got tired. The kids who were waiting their turn to shoot the rockets had a great time trying to catch them falling from the sky. They're easy to put together and seem to be very durable. Some of the boys were jumping on the launch pad with both feet, and I don't see any damage.

Live Giant Ant Farm Shipped with 25 Live Ants Now (1 Tube of Ants) Reviews

My son wanted to order this and I thought it would be a little creepy to willingly let ants come in my house, but now that it is up and running it is mesmerizing. It was really easy to put together and the instructions were very clear. It was really nice that the ants came with it and we didn't have to order them separately. Now that the ants are getting used to their environment, everyone is absolutely mesmerized watching them do their thing. It all seems to be good quality and very easy to use.

EB Excalibur EI5851BL10 Einstein Science Build Your Own Radio Lab Review

Customer Ratings:

This is the Einstein DIY Science Kit Radio that my 17 year old granddaughter just put together. She LOVES it. I'm so proud of her for doing it! She did something she had no idea she could do. She is having a blast playing it too. It works great.

Another granddaughter who is only 11 tried to put hers together. I think she 1) lost a piece of it and 2) never paid any attention to the directions. Hers did not work. I've been thinking of having the older granddaughter take this one apart and try to reconstruct from her own instructions. When we figure out if something is missing or just not wired correctly, I'm confident we can get it to work.

It's a wonderful product.

First, thanks for taking the confusing picture off that showed 6 brushes and replacing it with a single brush. I really thought that I was getting a half dozen of various sizes when I ordered. That said, I'm happy with the brush as it is great quality and so far has not lost a bristle. Some of the lesser expensive brushes are just worthless and the metal ferrule is not even crimped on while it and the bristles are hot glued in. When you go to clean a brush you often experience bristle loss and loose ferrules when cleaning a cheap brush. Been there and done that. So far, so good with this one having used and cleaned it at least a dozen times.

I'll update the review if it starts to fail.

My son got this from Grandma on his second birthday and it saved us on our 18 hour drive home! He loves being able to use Phillipe and Pat to help Manny with the repair jobs, and we are working on the counting and other games. As he grows, I think the other games will become more fun for him. I like that by default he can just press keys and it will tell and show him letters, numbers, shapes and colors without a parent having to get it set up to go for him. The only thing that could be added would be a backlit screen so he could see it in the dark, but I know that's asking a lot! Overall a great toy.
