LeapFrog Leapster® Educational Game: SpongeBob SquarePants Through Reviews

Customer Ratings:

I just purchased this game for my four-year old daughter. I am an elementary school teacher, and I think the game is fairly challenging. The screens are pretty monotanous and overall, my daughter finds the game boring. The other Sponge Bob game for Leapster is better.

My six year old twins (boy and girl) each got their own Leapster this year for Christmas and of course you then have to purchase the cartridges. They like Spongebob and generally he gets on my nerves after a while because there isn't much educational content to the shows. Well, the Leapster game is actually an exception. The kids LOVE it and it teaches them as well. Overall, a good thing for all involved!

You can never have enough Spongebob! That's how my kids see it. I have yet to meet a leapster game I didn't like. It's Spongebob, and leapster the perfect combination for kids. Don't get me wrong, I hate Spongebob as much as any parent, but the game's not for me now is it?

Anything SpongeBob is a hit with my 4 yr old granddaughter. She plays with this game everyday. She gets aggravated sometimes, but she's 4 and it's a 5-7 yr old game. Learning is hard.

Discount Brain Quest Play'n Learn Numbers Card Game

Customer Ratings:

I love that the game is very versatile. The instructions have two different options for the different games that can be played using this set. I also read reviews where a very creative dad had thought up a few other games. I like knowing that this game will grow with my daughter and right now she likes the match option. She likes counting the number of things on the cards and I feel like we'll enjoy this game for years to come.

Mudpuppy - Ring Flash Cards French/English Reviews

Customer Ratings:

I actually bought these flashcards because I loved the pictures and the French underneath. I took them off the ring and used 9 of them for artwork in my apartment. Having said that I did give the rest to my sister and we use them with her 3 year old. They seem to be working because she runs around calling her cat "Le Chat" which is adorable. The only complaint I could see is that they're made from cardboard and not really "baby proof". My sister also has a 1 year old who got a hold of them and chewed the corner of a couple and they didn't hold up as well as we would have liked. Overall we loved these cards.

These cards are pretty, and have a good feel to them. I am glad I bought them, however I would prefer if these cards came in sets. For instance, a set of food word cards, clothing word cards, etc. These are nice, but there are just many random words, and I feel there is much more to be desired.

I actually thought I had purchased the Spanish set and was shocked when the French arrived in my mailbox (but the return shipping wasn't worth the cost so I kept it). The set has great picture detail and the cards are thick (may not stand up to wetness though). I keep them in my purse or in the car for my daughter to play with and she seems to love naming all the items.

Honest reviews on Mudpuppy - Ring Flash Cards French/English

Both of my sons love these flash cards. They love to flip through them and point to the different items. My oldest son even learned some of the French words before the English ones! The only negative is that once they figured out how to open the ring they would do it all the time and it was hard to keep track of all the cards.

This is a great game for on the go. It's easy to pack, kids can play it by themselves, and there aren't any pieces to get lost. The object of the game is to use the flipper to get the balls into the baskets under each base and player.

Discount Yamaha EZ220 61-Key Portable Keyboard

Customer Ratings:

I bought this keyboard to really focus and learn how to play. The keys light up and there is a small display to show which fingers tap which keys but I expected something perhaps a bit more interactive. I wished it had some type of step by step instructions perhaps. All in all I'm pretty happy with my purchase though

Got exactly what I expected. Sound quality certainly could be better, but it is priced accordingly. The lighted keys help quite a bit and are easily turned off if so desired. Works excellent with synthesia! It's a bit frustrating that I had to buy the power cord seperately, but I knew I would need to do this before I purchased the keyboard anyway.

Package came sooner than I expected.

Pros:

+ Lighted keys help with learning and can be turned off with a single button

+ Sound is good for the price

+ Lighted keys work wonders with Synthesia software

+ Keys don't wobble like other similarily priced keyboards

Cons:

Had to pay for power cord and shipping on the power cord seperately, that sucked since I ordered with 2 day shipping

I guess it was a bit heavier than I expected

I think the box it came in looked stupid

Keys aren't weighted, but you shouldn't really expect that with this pricetag anyway

I suck and can't play it very well

Maxim EverEarth Pull Along Dog Reviews

Customer Ratings:

My son received this dog for his birthday and I have never seen him play with it. The coloring is just not the best for a dog and its all boxy or robotish. The string is too short for my one year old to pull around. I am going to guess the string is about 12". If you are looking for a great wooden pull toy I highly recommend the Plan Toys zebra. It is environmentally friendly, bright in color, and it's head moves when pulled-MUCH CUTER.

I think that this is a great toy. My daughter is 8 months old and loves pulling the dog, and loves even more watching someone else pull the dog all around her. She giggles with glee and chases it! There were a lot of reviews complaining that this toy was not exciting or looked like a real dog. How many pull toys actually look like animals. I am not one for bright over the top plastic toys that leave nothing to the imagination. If you like classic wooden toys that are painted with water based paints that are safe for your child, then this is the toy for you.

I bought the duck version for my cousins daughter and the dog for our daughter. They both really like them. The only problem being that the string is very short so we tied extra string to it so it can be pulled along. Obviously the string is short for safety reasons. No one wants a strangled baby, so I'm not recommending you tie more string to it, just telling you what we did.

Honest reviews on Maxim EverEarth Pull Along Dog

Although made iin china, this doggy is made very well, and states to have no toxins and totally kid safe. I bought this for my 13 month old daughter but so far i've played with it more than she has. I think she'll grow into it. The string to pull the doggy is very short.

You should know, this is a small puzzle, the dimensions are clearly stated above: 3.5 x 3.5 x 2.5 inches

However, once you expect it to be small, you will see that it is perfect! My 2.5 yo still sits rear facing in her carseat and this is the perfect thing to hold in her lap while we drive. It is several puzzles in one for more fun. Or, as your child gets older and develops a sense of humor, she can give the cow a pig foot or some other combination.

My child rarely plays with this in the house. In fact, we usually leave it in the car, where she will play with it for our entire 20 minute drive to town and then pick it back up for the drive home. We've had it for a year and all the pieces still look great.

I bought this as a gift for a 2 year old. It took the boy about 6 months to "get" it. Finally they sent me a photo of them at a restaurant playing with the blocks. The report was that he loves it! It is VERY small so it makes a great take along toy!

It was working for a little and then it wouldn't work any more.(READ BOTTOM REVIEW INSTEAD) i was sad after that but now i can get a better robot and then that will not happen over all this is okay :^|

Reviews of Carry Along Keyboard

Customer Ratings:

I ordered this for my 2-year old for Christmas since she has a friend with a keyboard and loves to play with it. It arrived and I was surprised at how little it is. It's good that it's small so she can carry it (which is why we bought the carry along keyboard!) but it's so little that it's more like a pretend toy than a real keyboard. As an adult, I can't actually play songs on it very easily without hitting more than one key at a time. Made for teeny fingers, that's for sure.

In addition, the sound is what you'd expect from a toy... fake and tinny. However, for the $40 price tag, I guess I was expecting it to be a little better. it has a variety of demo songs, but none of them sound as good or real as some other keyboards her friends have (though I couldn't find any of those in stores or online right before the holidays, so we ordered this one instead!)

It does have a record/playback option, but it only records the keyboard and not voices, like a microphone would, so that was a little bit of a disappointment as well. Despite all this, she's been carrying it around the house and has already dropped it more than once and it's held up fine. She seems to enjoy it, which is what's important, however, I think I could've spent half the price on a real "toy" and she'd feel the same way. If you're looking to inspire musical aptitude or interest, I'd recommend investing in a more real keyboard and less of a toy, which this turned out to be.

-Coming from a mom who spent years playing (and enjoying) piano as a kid and as an adult.

When I was looking for a simple piano for my toddler (2 year-old), I was not looking for something very grand but something that she'd still enjoy and get familiarized so that down the road she'd be able to enjoy the real thing later.

There is no real need for a bigger and more expensive version, so this will help keep her occupied for the time being. The sound from this unit is sufficient, though it would be far from true if one stated that it had a great sound. It does the job and for that price, what more can you expect.

Overall, this was probably the most played with toy on Christmas, and she was not one that was left wanting on this day. In all, I would say this was a good purchase. It seems pretty durable, so I am sure small drops will not affect it.

The different instrument sounds are fun, the volume adjuster is a nice addition (especially for the parents), and there are a few other things such as percussion buttons as well as a recording and demo sounds.

One drawback would be that the keyboard does not allow many key strokes simultaneously. Chop-sticks are doable, but nothing much more sophisticated is allowed...the keyboard just does not recognize it. This drawback though is not very warranted though. Considering the age and level of proficiency, this is not a requirement.

Therefore, feel free to be confident that this is a decent buy for a child that would like to play with a piano whom does not quite have the aptitude to yet perform complicated pieces...something that will not put the parent back too much either. ;o)

I love the size of this piano. It is perfect for my 12 month old to pick up and carry with her. My older son loves to play with it too.

Honest reviews on Carry Along Keyboard

I love this keyboard. It has really neat lights that start glittering whenever you play. It has a good volume control to turn down quite low, when needed. It has several different tones and rhythms. It shuts off automatically when not in use. It has a very cool juke box style and appeal to it. In fact, as a toy, this keyboard is a home run.

However, it falls short for me because the key values are off. In other words, if you play what you think to be a C note, what you actually hear is a D#. The keyboard sounds great, because all the keys are off by the exact same 3 semitones. However, as an adult singer, I wish to know what notes I'm tapping out without having to do mental calculations. The other 'problem' is that it only has 2-note polyphony, so you cannot finger and play a full chord only two out of the three notes will sound out.

This is great for a toy, but I will have to get a slightly more professional unit.

I bought this for my grandson and I to use on an "indoor" camping trip. I gave this lantern to him at Christmas with a small tent, and a sleeping bag. The 2 year old loved it. he and I played with it alot during the course of our Christmas night sleepover. Being a two year old, this poor little lantern was flung a couple of times on a hardwood floor. It still works perfectly. The light is bright but has a dimmer switch. We both loved using it during our fake sleepover. Would purchase it again in a heart beat.

I bought several of these as party favors for my 3 year olds safari birthday party. Exactlty what I was looking for. It's bright and good quality. They are really cute and made a good impression. BUT, its even smaller than I was expecting. The party guests were 3-5 years old and the lantern seemed small even for them. Wished it was a little bigger. Also, seems a little overpriced at $9.00.
