Original Rubik's Cube

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > School Equipment
from: Drumond Park


This puzzle is durable and makes the owner use their mind and improve their dexterity. Whether it is educational is doubtful, although as I already said it encourages the user to think. Plus side: You can use it just about anywhere. It does not use batteries or mains electricity (a big plus for me, the bill payer), there are no small parts to lose and a sense of achievement is attained if you master the puzzle. Down side: Can become boring after a while and as I am finding out can lead to frustration.

After spending a great deal of time and energy a number of years ago, I finally mastered the mystery of the Rubik Cube and could solve the puzzle in a time that I, at least thought was impressive.

How frustrating. I bought ... Read More:

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.

Doctor Who - Electronic Sonic Screwdriver

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > School Equipment
from: Character Options

I got this as a stocking filler for my 7 year old daughter. It ended up being the most played with toy she got on Christmas day! If only I'd known beforehand I needn't have spent a fortune on all the other presents!
The wipe clean pad with invisible ink and UV light work well. Only problem is the detachable nibs tend to get detached and left lying around. Batteries were included - that alone probably covered the cost as it was reduced before Chtristmas!

Super Swingball

from: Mookie


This is a great toy for all aspiring tennis players or just those of you who do not have a large enough garden to play tennis in. It's great to play with in the summer in the sun and will please all ages including parents. Best played with two people but you can practice on your own.

Scrabble Original

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > School Equipment
from: Mattel


This might call itself Scrabble Original, but it isn't. The Scrabble sets I played on as a lad all had wee holes in the board and pegs on the tiles so that the game wouldn't be ruined by the slightest knock. Sadly no more. It also comes in a stupidly huge box to make storage unnecessarily awkward. Disappointing.

My two childeren are six and seven. We had a lot of fun with this trying to find things that the toy couldn't guess. I managed with 'Xmas tree'. The kids got quite into it and were playing together with it on their own and asking me questions about words they didn't recognise.

I found these cards great for my 7 and 5 year olds as they love High School Musical. These cards helped them with the numbers higher and lower values whilst they had fun.

All Surface Swingball

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > School Equipment
from: Mookie


A great toy bought for my kids. Aged 9 and 6 they both love it. They like to play against each other against their parents, grandparents friends anyone really.

We played for a while and then the pole started falling at an angle but it is just the pole coming out of hole in bottom of the base. Simply push back in. Easy! We have the base filled with water in milk containers as we have it indoors at the moment until weather better.

Girl Tech Password Journal 5

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > School Equipment
from: Radica Games


password journal 5 is so cool. It's so fun and it is really girly you will love it. There is so much stuff you can do in it and it does what it tells you to do and it recognises my voice. The only thing that bothers me is the price: no i would not give it 10/10 for the price but it still is so cool. You will love it and it will keep you busy all day.
