BT Digital Baby Monitor 150

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Educational Aids
from: BT

October 31, 2007
Got a lot of advice from friends and family during my wife's pregnancy, thankfully one friend reccommended this.

I might have bought a lot of other junk for our little man but this is excellent. No other word for it, good price, very good monitor, hope your little one brings as much joy as ours.

Lamaze - Gardenbug Wrist Rattle Footfinder Set

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Educational Aids
from: Learning Curve


I bought these recently for my three month old daugher. I put them on her feet and they'd come off within a few minutes and they keep doing so! She instantly found them attractive but highly frusrating that after wrigging her feet a few times, she'd fetched them off. The socks are too loose and don't have enough give in them to make them a snug enough fit. Only recommended if your baby has fat feet!

Having said that, the wrist rattles are fine and she likes those!

Insect Lore Butterfly Garden

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Educational Aids
from: Insect Lore


Kit contains a netting/plastic freestanding container to put the caterpillars in. The container can be squashed down for storage when not in use. When extended it measures just over 30cm tall and approx 20cm across.

You send off for the carerpillars and food - costs an extra £2. Caterpillars are normally posted in 5 working days but can take up to 4 weeks. You should only order the caterpillars when its warm wnough outside for butterflies to survive. A detailed instruction booklet on how to care for your caterpillars and butterflies is included.

I should think you can reuse the kit with caterpillars that you find in the garden.

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.

Tomy : Starlight Dreamshow

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Educational Aids
from: Tomy


This has become part of baby's bedtime routine. She absolutely loves it and doesn't seem to get bored of it - infact 6 months on and it still makes her smile, knowing that she's going to be whisked off into dreamland. Probably one of our best investments, and its great on batteries too!

Stylophone - The Original Pocket Electronic Organ

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Educational Aids
from: Re:creation Group Plc


I was just browsing a gadget shop in town earlier and stumbled across this for £15. I thought to myself - this must just be for show, so I asked for a trial. It's awesome! I picked it up straight away

The sound is spot-on. It also features two new sounds (one is like a dirty amplified organ, which is excellent) and vibrato for a very different sound. The unit is capable of very impressive volumes - you will be able to drown out all your inferior friends with this little badboy. (Also includes headphone socket in case you don't want to lose your friends)

External input means you can plug in your MP3 player(/whatever) and jam along to your favourite tunes - the tuning knob on the back is so precise (and has a massive range) ... Read More:

Lamaze - Stretch The Giraffe

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Educational Aids
from: Learning Curve


My daughter received this as a Christmas gift when she was ten weeks old. For a few weeks, the lovely giraffe kept her occupied by hanging from her activity arch/car seat/anywhere else he could fasten and she never tired of him! Now, at getting on for four months old, she takes him everywhere with her! He's the perfect size for little hands and I can see him becoming a long-time favourite with our little one.

As always, LaMaze has come up with a winner in terms of colour and noise. i would highly recommend this (and others in the range) as very affordable and parent-pleasing gifts.

Fisher Price Kid-Tough Digital Camera - Blue

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Educational Aids
from: Fisher Price

July 10, 2006
I have just bought the camera for my two year old son.

He loved it, and it was easy for him to use. He took a lots of pictures as soon as he got it. He then ejoyed watching them back on the computer screen, he also learnt very quickly to view them on the LCD Screen using the arrows buttons.

The quality of the pictures is not so bad, if you consider it is just a toy and I do not want print the photos or at least not all of them.

I think it is a perfect toy for two/ tree year old children. You can let them take all the pictures they like without worring they are going to drop the camera and break it.

If I gave my two year old a proper camera, I would be lucky if lasted more than two days, after ... Read More:

My First Ready Bed - Thomas & Friends

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Educational Aids
from: Worlds Apart


I ordered the ready bed for my son who is 2 1/2 to use while we are staying at the grandparents as he loves Thomas.
We had great fun blowing it up and it looked lovely. The problems came once he got in it as we found he was already too big for it!
We both were very dissapointed it was not bigger as the decription said up to 4 years old. Having said that he is pretty much the same size as his 4 year old cousin but I always thought he was a bit small.
I have now got the junior size ready bed and that looks like it should last him a while.
The Thomas bed is great if you have small kids but if yours are bigger than average go for the Junior Ready Beds.
