IPhone 3G used's review (Daughter loves it!) 『My daughter loves this toy! She walks around wanting to check everyone's cough, ears, etc. My only complaint is that the stethoscope is rather flimsy and has a few kinks in the main line already.』
(Hours of Fun) 『We got this for our daughter when she was 3 years old, and it was one of her favorite toys. The plastic kit is pretty durable, and the instruments are the perfect size for little hands.』
(Could be better) 『This is a cute doctor kit that both my kids enjoy. However the blood pressure gauge constantly comes apart which is frustrating for them. Also - I gave up on the case and threw it away - it was nearly impossible for me to fit all the pieces back in and close the thing - there's no way a child can do it. I ended up getting a generic plastic box which made everyone happier. I think one of our craft projects this summer is going to make our own doctors bag... I think there are better kits out there.』
(pretty good kit for the price.) 『My son loves it! the only problems I've noticed were that the blood pressure equipment broke easily. The doctor bag is slightly narrow for him to fit his hand in and he's only 3 1/2 so his hands are tiny. other than those things...it's great, and it's one of his favorite toys.』
(Perfect toy for a child who is seeing the doctor a lot) 『My granddaughter has had to see the doctor a lot in the last 9 months and she has been very good, but it is hard for a 2 year old to be patient. One of her doctors had this toy and she played with it while they did what they had to do for her and it helped. So when we got home I bought the exact toy and she has had so much fun listening to her dollies heartbeats and taking her teddy bear's temperature. It really is a good toy and it has helped her stay calm about the things that doctors have to do. If you have a child that is sick get this toy and let them carry the little case with them when they go to the doctor. If the doctor is worth his salt he won't mind when the child wants to listen to his heartbeat or take his temperature. I recommend this toy absolutely.』 『International Playthings is pleased to carry a collection of brightly colored fun toddler and preschool toys. Each toy is safe and durable with excellent play value - sure to provide children with years of play and tons of fun!

Ugly Doll
Usually ships in 2 to 4 weeks IPhone 3G used's review (Great for Boys) 『Ugly dolls have been a wonderful pass time for our boys. As they have grown older it became "uncool" to play with stuffed animals. However, these little ugly dolls are the exception to the rule. They can be enjoyed without appearing "babyish." They are made of great quality and of course, have a corresponding website to enjoy and collect them all.』 『From the creative minds of two artists emerge the Uglydoll family. What started as a drawing of a playful orange character known as Wage has turned into a whole new world of fun. The award-winning Uglydoll plush characters are available in a variety of styles each with their own distinct personalities. Uglydoll characters inspire creativity while reminding us that we are all unique in our own special way. These are the dolls that not only girls are seen carrying but boys as well. They are the dolls that many boys are willing to nap with, be seen on the streets with and take to camp. Uglies are neither superheros nor stuffed animals. Each has their face hand-sewn which gives them all a slightly different look.』

(Great and durable) 『I bought this for my nephew who is pretty rough on his toys (I think that's normal). He loved the table. I sent it directly to his home, and he was so excited when he saw the box that he wouldn't wait for his birthday. The table has held up really well for the over a year. My daughter also loves to eat at this table. Great for the kids.』
(for a toddler who loves thomas) 『bought it for my toddler who loves thomas
a bit hard for me to assemble because i am not really good at it ... definitely need a electric screw driver or it will take longer to screw everything in place
good on carpet not really on hard wood floor cause everything just slips because each pieces are not weighty. i placed some anti slip on the legs of table and chairs which works much better so my toddler will not just fall off the chair
perfect size for a toddler who is 35 inches tall and weight 32 pounder』 『Your toddler's Thomas&FriendsTM themed room would not be complete without this table and chair set from Little Tikes.

(Great stroller, but....) 『This stroller is great, but you can buy these types of doll strollers at the big box stores for less money, and they are exactly the same. I am embarassed that I stressed over which one to buy last Christmas, because they are all the same. My two year old loves this one in the house, and so we bought her a cheaper duplicate for playing outside, and they are the same.』
(Birthday Hit!) 『I purchased this stroller, along with a Corolle doll and diaper bag, for my 2-year-old granddaughter's birthday. They were, hands down, her favorite gifts and she still plays with it every day. Her 5-year-old sister loves it, too, although it is a bit too small for her height.』
(Love it) 『My 16 month loves her doll stroller . She puts Big Bird in it, covers him with a blanket and pushed him all around the house. She smashes into walls and stairs and has done no damage to the stroller. The fabric seat stays on, unlike the one at daycare, so that no metal ends are exposed. My daughter laughs as soon as we get home and she sees her stroller. Well worth the money (I have an $120 HABA toys wooden cart too that is now forgot about).』

IPhone 3G used's review (perfect for little hands) 『My daughter is 2 years old and she loves these brushes. They are perfect for her little hands. The quality is nice to. No bristles fall out.』
(Good toddler brushes) 『We gave my daughter these brushes to go along with her easel and paint for her third birthday. She can grip them well with her little hands and even paints with one in each hand sometimes. They are just right for a young child and seem to be good quality. Every once in a while when I'm cleaning the paint out, a bristle comes out, but it's not too often.
I'd recommend these to anyone looking for paint brushes for a child under the age of 5.』
(More than ordinary brushes!) 『Melissa&Doug Jumbo Paint Brushes are more than a set of quality, colorful art brushes. They provide the opportunity for differently abled people to have the freedom of painting once again, because these brushes are built so that they are easy to grip.
That is a value beyond price.
TEN stars!
』 『4 Jumbo Brushes with easy to grip handles allow for superior control. They come in a storage pouch. Each has natural bristles. Cleans with warm water and soap.』
IPhone 3G used's review (My Son LOVES it!) 『My son received Big Rig Hauler and Rob for his 3rd birthday. He has played with it hours on end and just loves it! His dad drives a semi-truck, so he loves that he has his "own" big truck! In fact, he even took it to show and tell this week and I had several phone calls from parents asking exactly what it was and where we got it because their son wants one! We have not had any trouble with it jacknifing or crasing, and my sons track set is very detailed. We LOVE Geotrax at our house!』
(Poor design) 『I bought this and returned it immediately. The power is in the second car (see the little light at the top in the pic), so it pushes the engine instead of the regular train engines that pull. And the engine it comes with is very light so it jackknifes easily. It's fine if you run on a simple straight track with very wide turns and no hills, but once you start going around sharp bends or multiple hills, hills upon hills, turns at the end of hills, it derails and angers my 3 year old to no end. This was a poor Geotrax design. We have loved every bit of the Geotrax system and were very sorry that this one didn't work out for us.』

Manley
Usually ships in 24 hours IPhone 3G used's review (Don't waste your money) 『This ugly thing was the #1 item on my daughter's christmas list. I bought it. Christmas day comes, she opens it, it works for 5 minutes and stops working completely. Ok. Everyone is completely sold out. Everywhere. Three months later I finally find one...I drive an hour to exchange this ridiculous thing. So now we have a working one. It does nothing but stand up and wiggle it's arms, and make this annoying noise. Totally does not do what's on the commercial. She's played with it twice. My 3 year old even thinks it's dumb.』
(Disappointing Waste of Money) 『This toy is so not fun. Any reviewer who said it is fun and exciting for children and adults is obviously an investor in the ridiculously overpriced and underperforming product. Like others have said, I was a sucker for forking out $50 for this sad waste of time. My 7 year old daughter and I were alternately bored and irritated trying to get the thing to react and respond in promised cute ways. My daughter wants to keep the baby - which equals $50 spent on a pom pom with googley eyes. The toy itself will be stuffed into a box bound for GoodWill for some other kid to be irritated with, and ultimately to languish in a landfill where its chemical-laden, non-bio-degradeable parts will rest for eons to come. Do yourself a favor and don't buy this toy.』
(Cute) 『I bought this for my kids for christmas and although it was cute; the 3-year old lost interest quickly and my 14-year old was annoyed after 10 minutes. I think it would be a better toy for kids ages 5 to 10. It does shut off quickly when you leave it alone which is nice.』
(Very Disappointed!) 『First of all let me say I really feel like a sucker for purchasing this toy for my daughter! It was a huge disappointment and a huge waste of money... honestly! I was able to find it for $50 with free shipping. Got it for my 6 1/2 year old for Christmas... I let the kids each open 1 gift a week before Christmas and the Fuzz Luv happens to be the gift she opened. It got played with for MAYBE 30/45 minutes immediately after she opened it and has not been touched since. #1 The baby does not stay "in" the fuzz luv mom very well... It just falls out constantly, and because of this it never "birthed" the baby, it just fell out and wouldn't stay in. #2 The obnoxious noises it makes are LOUD, with NO volume control.
You'd by far be better off purchasing a Squackers McKaw, or even an old Furby... they are much more fun and do a lot more than this toy that only make odd and loud clicking noises and squats up and down.
Like the other reviews on this toy, no one in my family was entertainded by this toy, no adults wanted to play with it (only put it away) and it didn't even take 24 hours to become a shelved forgotten toy. They sure saw me coming with my debit card and the word SUCKER written across my forehead for this purchase!
Please feel free to read my other reviews and see the I am not a regular writer of bad reviews, I only log on a review things when I think they are super great... but this toy was such a waste I wanted to warn other parents!』
(Cute but Over Priced) 『My daughter's first reaction to it was "COOL"! She has had it for a couple weeks now and the excitement didn't wear off. Until.....
The rest of us just sat and watched my daughter mother this weird little thing. It was cool for a little while.
It was great when it didn't have any new toy competition for the frist few weeks, but now a month later its a cute $50 ornament on her shelf.
I don't recommend this toy anymore. I wish I could change my ratings here.』 『Watch these furry, fuzzy lovable friends really warm up to you. Each one reacts to your moods and emotions. Watch it come to life once it feels comfortable with you -- its eyes open, its ears and hands pop out, and its legs raise up to meet the body. Be careful not to scare it though, or your Fuzz Luvz will shake nervously and revert to its original form. Decorate your pet's "fuzz" using the cute included accessories. After several days of play, this cute little animal even gives "birth" to a baby Fuzz! Requires four "AA" batteries, included. Measures approximately 4.5" tall.』

Radio Flyer
Usually ships in 24 hours IPhone 3G used's review (Cheap Crap) 『We have model #53 (supposedly improved) and WOW is it poorly made. The front wheel fell off while my son was riding it (no injuries -- but, seriously, ?????!). Even after "fixing it" the handle bars wiggle front to back more than 1cm. We consulted an experienced bike tech who admitted to having junked more than 1 of these for similar reasons. It's ridiculous how cheap this trike is. Shoddy crap. Nostalgia aside, I wish we'd bought a Kettler and saved the trouble...』
(Tips over&poor quality!) 『This tricycle is such a disappointment. It has broken or worn in several areas, for example despite repeated tightenings, the handle bars do not stay true and turn the wheel as they should. It also tips over WAY to easily- just asking for an injury. I would not recommend this to anybody.』
(Liked it and then stopped liking it) 『I read the other reviews about not being able to assemble it or parts not working correctly and I haven't had any of those problems. It has worked as advertised for our child so we have like it but now, we are disappointed. Our son has outbrown the need to have a parent steer it for him so we removed the parent steering to allow him to do on his own and guess what? It has no brakes. We live in a hilly neighborhood so there is only two ways to stop...hit something or put your feet down. He likes riding it but can only do so in our garage since our driveway is on a slope. So overall I would say that it is a good attempt but not to great of a product. I went to the store today and bought a different one that he can ride on walks with us in the neigborhood that has brakes....so this one was a waste of money.』
(Good idea, weak construction) 『After reading all the reviews we took a chance on this trike for our 17 month old as the steering feature seemed great for Mom and the free moving wheel a good feature. The price was low enough to where it was worth taking a chance despite some of the reviews.
Our impressions: -Set up was pretty easy, about 20 min -I can see how the right back wheel might fall off - it and the axel are held on by a simple pressure fitting that you bang on with a hammer. Why they didnt just use a cotter pin (perhaps because metal is expensive in china!)..... It hasn't fallen off yet though. -The Steering handle has alot of play to it and you are constantly under/oversteering to keep it straight. Going to see if I can eliminate some of the play with a space (bad sign on a new toy!) - The ringing bell is really cheaply made. they could have sprung for a real one. - With all of this you dont want to roll it off curbs too much
Overall my son really likes rtiding on it and my wife likes pushing him. But its clear this wont be a long lasting toy.』
(Works for us, good for confidence building) 『I got this tricycle after my 2 years and 10 months old son refused to ride his Radio Flyer classic tricycle with pushbar. The problems he has with the classic tricycle are: hard to keep himself on the seat (he has hypotonia in his trunk, hard to keep his feet on the pedals (no flywheel so they always move) and he had trouble steering (the parent can't steer with the pushbar either). He got frustrated with the classic tricycle because he couldn't manage all these things at once. Happily, the steer&stroll trike answers these issues. He enjoyed his first day of riding the tricycle and wants to ride it some more! It's a great way for him to build confidence on a tricycle without giving him the frustrations he was having with a standard tricycle. This tricycle may not be for all children, but for my son it's been a great confidence builder. I hope it will hold up at least for the amount of time he needs it.』 『Perfect for the young trike-rider, this innovative model from Radio Flyer offers some remarkable features that both children and adults are sure to love. The removable, 4-position push handle on the steering wheel enables you to turn the front wheel while your child rides. When she's old enough to steer on her own, you can remove it. The freewheeling pedals allow your child to coast while you push, and the sturdy, tubular steel frame has flip-down foot rests. Also features 10-inch front wheel, durable molded wheels with grip tread, soft removable cargo pack, adjustable seat and ringing bell. Measures approximately 30" x 21.5" x 23".』

Melissa and Doug
Usually ships in 24 hours IPhone 3G used's review (Learn Language with the Three Little Pigs) 『Step back in time with this classic, the Three Pigs, and bring on the fun! The chubby pigs are the perfect size for a toddler's hand to squeeze and let out a squeak. They can hide in their color-matched soft homes with plenty of doors and windows to open and close to teach early prepositions like "in," out," " back" and "front." Kids love to stuff the big bad wolf (and all the pigs for that matter) down the chimney and watch him magically appear inside the house. Carry on little conversations with your pigs as your toddler chooses one to speak for too.
As a speech pathologist with Play on Words, I look for toys that have a lot to describe. Babies and toddlers' receptive language (understanding) has been outpacing their expressive language (actually saying words) as they hear and store new vocabulary words. But at 1½ years, they are entering the stage of their "vocabulary explosion" when they can actually learn several new words a day. As you are playing with your child and describing her action with the toy, your job is a lot easier when there is a lot to describe in terms of texture, sounds, color, size, and shape. Point out the straw, stick and brick houses, shiny, smooth and soft surfaces, big, little and medium--sized houses, match the colored houses to the pigs and talk about shapes.』
(Had no idea my 3.5 year old would like this) 『My 15 month old received this for Christmas and was not interested in it at all. However, my 3.5 year old can not get enough of it. I would have thought it too young for him, but apparently not. He acts out the 3 little pigs, he stuffs all kinds of things in the houses, he plays with the pigs in the bath, he organizes it all how it came. It has become one of his favorite toys.』
(wonderful toy!) 『My one year old daughter received this as a gift. While she is younger than the recommended age, she is having a great time with it. She likes moving the pigs into the houses, and the wolf down the chimney. She loves to hear the story and watch while the pigs are moved and the houses are blown down. Her 3 1/2 year old brother is throughly enjoying it as well. We also love that the houses and characters all stack inside each other, so it isn't very big to store.』 『Experience the classic story of "The Three Little Pigs" again and again. This storytelling set includes three soft fabric nesting houses with self-stick fabric closures, a "fall-through" chimney, three squeaking pigs, a wolf and a story sheet!
