we can all play from the 6 yr old up, just in teams.
It is fun and educational.

BRIO 33754 Wooden Railway System: Magnetic Bell Signal

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Characters and Brands
from: Brio


We were very disapointed with this item - the bell ring is VERY quiet and the magnetic ringer only works with brio trucks that have large metal hubs on the wheels. If, like us, you have a hybrid set of Tesco/Thomas/Brio etc. you may find some problems with getting the bell to ring at all.

It's a good idea but just doesn't work well in practice.
we recommend a level crossing or collapsing bridge instead.

Cars Character Car - Mater the Tow Truck

Despite the Cars movie being a couple of years old now the appeal of Lightning McQueen and friends is as strong as ever. Our 3 year old son watches the film (or some of it) nearly every day and he loves these little 'matchbox' models.
Just be warned once you buy a couple of them you tend to keep buying more and more as they are only £3 each....

In The Night Garden - Ninky Nonk Vehicle

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Characters and Brands
from: Hasbro

July 28, 2007
i tend to fully agree with all the reviews so far about how easily it falls apart, but my son who was only one and a half at the time, soon learnt how to reconnect the carriages himself, and enjoyed doing so.

this toy has been covered in squished banana at breakfast time, immersed in countless bubble baths, rolled up and down the slide in the garden - and even found itself thrown in the fish pond once - but still it is intact and very much loved by my little boy. yes hasbro could have tried harder to be a little more imaginable with the design - or at least reduced the rrp to a more value-for-money amount, but in our house, this toy is definately a hit and i for one am glad i bought it.

Crayola Minikids Mess Free Magic Painting Set

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Characters and Brands
from: Crayola


My 3 year old girl got that as a present and she was initially thrilled with the novelty of it. The colour doesn't run so it's "mess free" colourwise but as the paste in the pots is grease, everything gets greasy. The sponges also need regular wash as my daughter used the same sponge for all the colours and later pictures ended all orangy..It's a nice novel idea, but a greasy one too, so I'm not very impressed. Also my daughter stopped using it as soon as the novelty weaned...4 stars for the novelty of it...Crayola keep trying...

Mr Potato Head

I am another person who remembered having lots of fun with this as a kid.
Bought one for my 4 year old who had a great time moving the pieces, putting arms for noses etc for about 3 days. Since then he has hardly touched it and I can't remember why I have such fond memories either.
Maybe, compared with current toys, its scope is a bit limited. I understand there are add-ons which would increase the permutations but, still, it seems a bit repetitive.

I originally bought this for one of my twin sons and they fought over it so much that I had to buy another. They both love it and there are no more fights.

Lamaze - Puppytunes

This is a great toy one of the few things that stops my 3mth old from crying. She loves the sounds, colours, textures and taste!!! The song book is great fun I only wish there were more tunes to learn.
