Cheap Hohner Kids Musical Toys S363 Maraca
I bought this for our library story time, since my son had broken one of theirs while we were there. The librarian loved that they were all plastic, and durable. The kids, after we put them in the instrument box, fought over them because they made a great sound.

I got this for my daughter, who is almost 15 months; a bit under the recommended age, but we supervise her with everything. She LOVES this toy, and it makes us laugh. Three settings: acoustic, electric, and "howl", and boy, do we howl with laughter at the funny little songs it plays. It has a little bone-shaped whammy bar that plays a pre-recorded guitar bit. The strap has a velcro bit so you can open it (she was trying to put it around her neck, but I worried about her choking), and there are so many songs, not just the funny little dog parody songs, but instrumental ditties using acoustic, electric, and howl. True, it takes some effort to use the little strumming bit; it's not sensitive or intuitive. She's not interested in that part, though, and I tried it out at the store before I bought it, so I knew what we were getting into. It was a big hit. Sometimes we adults parents, grandparents, and uncles all play with it when she's sleeping. It's well-built, solid, super cute, and funny. Volume control, too, plus, if you bop him on the nose, he shuts up. :)
The song parodies it does might teach your kids different words to common songs, like "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" is "Yip yip, bark bark, bow-wow-wow, how I wish dogs just me-owed, what a racket all night long...", "Fancy Poodle" for "Yankee Doodle", etc. I don't care, but some folks might. I think it's cute.
He does whimper sadly if you ignore him, though. Just once, then he stops.
There are several different ways to play this guitar. It has three modes: acoustic, electric and "woof." All are great. Kids can strum chord progressions, and play different notes on the scale (along the dog's back). The bone plays fun riffs, too.
The lyrics to the songs are hilarious (a song book comes with the guitar so you can sing along). The melodies are familiar and cover lots of different genres. There's even a song that sounds like a kid's version of Led Zeppelin's "Stairway to Heaven."
I haven't even scratched the surface in this review -just buy this guitar. You'll LOVE it! (oh yeah, and your kid will love it, too)

Best Deals for B. Woofer Guitar
We have owned this toy for 2 years and our children have enjoyed it. HOWEVER, the neck strap is very dangerous. My daughter was playing with it yesterday and twisted the guitar too many times. By the time I saw her, her entire face was dark red and she was terrified. I can't stand to think about what would have happened if I hadn't seen her in time. She could not get it untwisted. When it twists in this manner, the Velcro release strap is impossible to get to. We have contacted the company and they were not concerned in the least. I have cut the strap off of my guitar but will not be buying any more toys of this brand unless they issue a recall.Honest reviews on B. Woofer Guitar

Buy Learning Resources Animal Classifying Cards, Grasslands
My kids love to look at flashcards. This series has both beautiful photos and educational informational. Taken care of, these will be useful and interesting for years.I'm always looking for compact toys and such that can be used during a road trip. We're not big fans of electronic toys that get kids in a mindset of "the only thing I want to do is use a computer or video game." We want our kids to explore the world around them, enjoy learning, and develop skills that are applicable beyond computers. So, we don't just give them a gameboy type toy for the car rides. The kids really liked these animal cards and after we had gone through them a few times, we created an impromptu memory game with them in the car!

Buy Green Toys Shape Sorter Baby Toy
Customer Ratings: 
List Price: $19.99
Sale Price: $14.99
Today's Bonus: 25% Off

I think this is a new product, but we are already convinced it is the best affordable shape sorter out there. We have young twins and this is the fourth Green Toys toy we've gotten for them. I love that they are made from recycled plastic and made in the USA, not China! But that's not the only reason to get these toys.
We got the Fisher-Price Brilliant Basics Baby's First Blocks a little while ago and it is a similar concept to the Green Toys shape sorter. The problem with the Fisher Price model, at least for us, is that the lid just sits on top of the box. That means that our kids can easily pull the lid off and it even just falls off if the box is tipped. With the Green Toys sorter, the two pieces screw together and stay in place. This means that our 14-month-olds spend more time sorting shapes than just taking the lid off to fling the pieces around. This toy is also small enough that they can hold it and manipulate it better than the big fisher price box.
Off all the toys we have gotten for our kids, the Green Toys are consistently both our favorites and our kids. There may be a slight premium for them rather than the mass-produced toys from China, but they are still affordable and high quality!

I am so thrilled to find this manufacturer -toys are affordable, very durable, my kids love them (actually fight over playing with them -I think that's a sign of a good toy??) -and wow, I don't have to worry about toxic China chemicals getting into my children's bloodstream. I've made 3 purchases from this manufacturer (through amazon) and am happy with all of them. Best of all worlds, highly recommend.Best Deals for Green Toys Shape Sorter Baby Toy
I love Green Toys, and couldn't wait for this shape sorter to come out. My 12-month-old daughter doesn't quite know how to put the shapes in the correct holes, but she has fun trying! There are 8 shapes, and four holes on the top of the sorter as well as 4 holes on the bottom. The top screws off in order to dump the pieces out. This toy is nothing fancy, just a simple shape sorter, but I know it is a great, fun learning toy for my daughter that will last for years!Honest reviews on Green Toys Shape Sorter Baby Toy
I bought this for my son when he was 9 months old. He's a bit too young to use the sorting part however he loves banging the pieces together! He also loves to chew/teeth on it. It feels good on his gums. I love the Eco friendly nature of what it's made from as well. I would buy this as a gift and would definitely recommend it!Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Green Toys Shape Sorter Baby Toy
I love this toy because it's made in the USA and I love Green Toys! My boys have almost every toy they make I'm kind of addicted. We also have the Fisher Price shape sorter and just like the other reviewer said the lid pops off all the time and it's annoying. We also received a Sevi shape sorter (designed in Italy but made in China) and the shapes go through two wooden sides, but the sides just sit on the shape sorter and fall off all the time. I do like that there are a variety of shapes with the Sevi. Only downfall I see with the Green Toys is that there are not enough different shapes such as a star or clover or hexagon, etc. otherwise it's perfect.Thursday, September 18, 2014
Best Manhattan Toy Go Push Toy Deals
Customer Ratings: 
List Price: $12.00
Sale Price: $11.41
Today's Bonus: 5% Off

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I first fell in love with the Manhattan Toy Company when we discovered Groovy Girl Dolls. They have an amazing ability to create toys that kids and parents love. Their toys are also of very good quality and safe.
On top of my brand loyalty to Manhattan Toys, I also love any toy that can move without batteries and this is no exception. Our kids are the same way, the favorite dump truck and cars have always been the one that you can drag backwards and then propel themselves forward on their own. On top of the great function, we absolutely love the cuteness factor of the push puppy. The safety factor is also high on our list, and the puppy is set up so that the child's hand with be far from the hinge mechanism.
As far as we are concerned, this little puppy is a slam dunk hit. We love it!
I love the happy look on this toy doggie's face, and the great color combination. The orange and blue are great.
The toy operates very well. I have short carpeting, and with a push down on body and then letting go, it rolls briskly about 4 feet. Very satisfying!
This is a fun little toy that actually moves pretty fast considering how little effort goes in to winding it up. Just push its back down and when released the toy will travel forward at a decent rate of speed for a fairly long distance.
It is made out of hard plastic so if your child is prone to throwing things be careful. There is a very small gap on its hind quarters where the wind up action occurs. The gap is small enough to prevent fingers from getting pinched but parents will just want to look at that gap every once and awhile.
But overall this is a simple toy that even this 37 year old found to be entertaining.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program Fun toy, it works best if on wood floor, but it will work on short carpet. I have a bit of a shag to my carpet and it moved a little bit, works better than any other toy that rolls on it own. I also used it on short carpet and it work just fine, but it goes the farthest on wood. Just push the dogs butt down, let go and watch it speed away. My 16 month old loves it. The puppy is very easy for my son to handle, easy to hold on to. When you push the dog down, the toy goes a pretty far distant, great for my son to chase. I can see this as a good toy for beginner crawlers too.Honest reviews on Manhattan Toy Go Push Toy

Buy Amazing Animals Push & Pull Lion
This goes along great with the rest of the Amazing Animals set and the Sing & Go ChooChoo set. The lion is really cute and my son (12 months) loves the main that can be twisted for fun clicking sounds. My son also loves to make the little monkey that attached to the cart spin around and around! Highly recommend getting this toy if you have any of the other Amazing Animals, they go so great together!
IMO it was a waste of money, it didn't have any longevity. Oh well, it was a gift.

Today's Bonus: 6% Off

Okay, here's the information I wanted before I bought this. :)
First and foremost, disregard the photo the only thing it shows you is the selection of colors you get. This is a very simple package 100 tiles each of four different colors (red, green, yellow, blue), for a total of 400 tiles. The tiles are sturdy plastic, one inch square by 2mm thick, with a smooth finish. (That's right, they're all squares no triangles or other shapes, despite the photo.) There are a few rough spots on the edges, so you might want to go over 'em with a file before letting the little ones loose on them.
Game designers, take note: this is an excellent source of Scrabble-like plain tiles. Just print your desired information on 3/4" squares and tape 'em to the tiles, and you've got decent playing pieces that can be easily changed or customized.

Learning Resources Big Time 12-Hour Demonstration Clock Review
What a neat idea in helping young ones learn time. I got this for my brother and sister-in-law for my niece, who loves to learn. Not only was she excited but so was my whole family! The size of the clock is great and the numbers are of a size that can be easily seen. You can either put it on it's stand or lay it down but I like the stand. My sister-in-law and I noticed the minutes were also on the clock, that's wonderful. Many times my niece will say "See you in 10 minutes", therefore, we are able to teach her what she means. Love the product and was glad to find it. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do!!
It is working really well.

My daughter loves clocks. This one is durable, easily carried, washable, and she has enjoyed it. The thing has a removable stand thing in the back which we've lost track of but that's because of the way we are using it. I can't say it's a drawback because we don't need it to stand up and were I to use it to teach time in the way the picture shows, I'd want to have it standing up maybe, but then I'd want to be able to have it go flat to store it.All in all I can't see a reason not to get this item.

Cheap Fisher-Price Sesame Street Elmo?s Sing n? Giggle Microphone
My daughter is 14 months and was ecstatic when she saw this. She's in a new Elmo phase and she fell in love with this microphone! It's very easy for her to use, she figured out how to push the buttons immediately after I showed her once. There is a side button on the left that makes Elmo's glasses come down and he asks who turned the lights out, but this button isn't so easy to push. Since it's a Christmas gift and we haven't taken it out of the box, maybe she will be able to push it when she's holding it. Elmo sings adorable, recognizable kid songs that had her dancing right away! The only reason it didn't get 5 stars is because of the volume. You can not adjust the noise level and this microphone is L-O-U-D!!! I know how loud other toys are, and this is probably (I'm not exaggerating) in the top 3 loudest toys we've ever owned. (The others had their batteries taken out because they were just too loud.) When I'm sitting by her trying to sing the song with her, I know she can't hear me singing!! (Which may be a good thing...) Do they have it this loud that so when kids sing into it they can still hear the song and not loose their place?? I would still highly recommend this to any Elmo lover, just beware of how LOUD ELMO CAN SING!
Frustrated to put 'microphone' on his Christmas list after just buying one for him I decided to open the bad boy up since he had zero interest in it. After removing THIRTEEN screws from the back I was able to find inside the little tag that needed to be removed to get it out of demo mode. I could barely get it open enough to slip a finger in to push it out of the little hole in the back of the head, directly below and between the eyes, then pull it all the way through. Sure enough, all the screws back in and now it works as a microphone! My son was very excited, running around the kitchen while I replaced all of the screws asking for his microphone. I'm relieved to be able to take microphone back off of his Christmas list!

I first saw this toy in a store while casually shopping ahead for my son's second birthday. While playing with it with my sister I assumed it was in some sort of demo mode and that was why I could not sing into it in the store, so I put it on his wishlist and he received it for his birthday through Amazon. I was very disappointed when we unpacked it and there was no demo mode, no tag to pull out. Both the buttons on the front did the same thing, play the songs, and there was no singing into it. Someone had already throw the recycling out and it was picked up the very next morning, so there was no returning it.Frustrated to put 'microphone' on his Christmas list after just buying one for him I decided to open the bad boy up since he had zero interest in it.

This toy is loud like other reviewers stated. But I think that's not a big problem. The problem is Elmo's voice gets static, it's not as clear after a short while. The quality is not very good, although it did provide much fun at the beginning.
