Tomy Rummikub Game

from: Tomy

January 01, 2004
There are thousands of new games every year. Most of them disappear without a trace. Some acquire a devoted but small following. Just a few become classics. Rummikub is one these.

Invented in Romania in 1940, Rummikub is essentially a tile version of the traditional card game Rummy. It didn't really make it internationally until the 1970s, but by 1980 it had won a string of awards and established itself as a great family game.

Basically, it's about creating sets of three or more in a row of tiles either in runs of the same colour (1-2-3-4 etc), or the same number but in different colours. The winner is the person who gets rid of all their tiles first. The clever bit is that you can rearrange the tiles already on the ... Read More:

I bought this for my 2 year old girl as a Christmas present, to help with a long 11 hour flight. She really enjoyed this more than I thought she would.

we have found this item very useful for our 14 month old daughter, but we only bought it at Xmas and already the colours arent as strong as they used to be, it has now become very patchy, and I am not very pleased.
Will be looking to seek a replacement.

Tomy Starlight Dreamshow

Childrens Toy Shop > > Tomy
from: Tomy



Strengths:
- Very lightweight
- Cute music
- Cute pictures from the light show

Weaknesses:
- Can easily be pulled down by baby using its fingers
- Pictures are on a rotating disc, so may become boring after a while.
- Once the baby sits up in the crib, this can be hazardous if it't attached to the side, because the light has a warning not to let eyes come in the way of the rays.
- Probably useless after the child is four months old, if not before.

A better buy, in my opinion, would be the mobiles from Tiny Love that have farm or zoo animals. These are well-designed, durable, and can be used well into the toddler years (without the mobile part). My 1.5 year old ... Read More:

Tomy Aqua Draw Deluxe

from: Tomy


Absolute nightmare to keep clean, completely agree with the other 2 reviewers who have pointed out that it will be ruined if cant guarantee your toddler will no eat ANYTHING near it and will only use the pen on the mat.

Had it less than a month and its ruined had the same problem with the juice cup as the other reviewer pointed out once they know its water they will try in use their cups to make it all turn blue

withing weeks of getting it - and only played with by 2 fairly careful kids. But even so, it's been a brilliant buy.

Tomy Cella Refill Cartridge

Childrens Toy Shop > > Tomy
from: Tomy


great for all those little pictures the kids produce; and they can get on and play all by themselves. But beware, the refills aren't cheap and the kids aren't very economical with it if left to their own devices. Have had to throw away a few refills where the roll has snapped and haven't been able to reload it.

Tomy : Winnie The Pooh Moonlight Dreamshow

Childrens Toy Shop > > Tomy
from: Tomy


It sounds great on paper - soothes your baby to sleep and should they awaken during the night, it is sound-activated and should soothe them back to sleep. But as the other reviewers have said, this was far too loud and the slightest noise reactivated it - it woke the baby up and us in the next room! Aside from this the projected image is unclear (had no idea what it was meant to be) Looking at the box gives you the false impression that all sorts of wonderful images are projected round the room...

Do yourselves a favour and buy the Tomy Starlight Dreamshow, we've been using it 6 months now and it still brings a smile to our babies face when we switch it on for bedtime.

I don't understand how Tomy got it so wrong with this ... Read More:

Tomy Cella Sticker Machine - Pink

Childrens Toy Shop > > Tomy
from: Tomy


My two children had one each of these last Christmas. The paper in both cartridges has torn and now I can't reroute it so either have to hide the sticker makers and then throw them or fork out for 2 new cartridges. Unless you are prepared to closely supervise the use of these I would be wary of buying. The Crayola creations stickermaker is better.
