Tomy Aqua Draw Mini Mats - Dora the Explorer

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Educational Aids
from: Tomy

September 22, 2006
As soon as my 2 year old opened the box, she was rapt with these! She loves colouring but of course is too young to understand not to just scrawl over it all... with these mats that is no problem. They kept her entertained for at least an hour and she goes back to them again and again. I would recommend. Yes the pen is a bit small as a previous reviewer said but I do not consider this a problem. A much loved toy already!

Tomy Aqua Draw Mini Mats - Winnie the Pooh

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Educational Aids
from: Tomy


My daughter is 26 months, and not so coordinated with coloring yet so I thought this would be a good beginning toy to help her get a bit handier with holding crayons and such. It's, well, so-so for this..... From the picture it seems you start with a 'white' or blank picture card. But there is coloring already on it, so when you do go there with your water pen, it's not like there is such a dramatic change. So she wasn't as excited as I hoped with the color changes, as it is not as nearly as dramatic as what you see in the pictures. Good thing is that it is compact and lightweight and the waterpens of course are wonderful cuz, well, they've only got water in them. Oh, the papers are not super durable either...

Tomy Cella Refill Cartridge

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Educational Aids
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.

BT Digital Baby Monitor 100

For all those considering this ahead of the 150 (more expensive version) it is worth noting that the key 'extra' of the 150 is the room temperature alert function. (not available on the 100)

forgetting all the extra gizmos and gadgets it (150) has I think this is a really important feature that would be more expensive to buy as an individual item.......unless not needed I would go for the 150 - only a little more money and extra peice of mind.

Lamaze - Balancing Bug Stacker

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


I bought this toy as i was looking for something a bit different from the whoozit type soft toys for my 8 month old. It has not disappointed. The 6 bugs are all brightly coloured with various legs, wings etc for little ones to grab hold of. They each contain a magnet which not only enables them to stick together in a totem pole effect but also produces a not too loud rattle in each one. They are neither too heavy nor too big for the littlest hands to pick up and they will love knocking down the towers that you have carefully constructed as well as banging pairs together and ultimately building their own towers, naming the bugs, learning colours etc. My only, very small criticism is that i assume one of the bugs to be a spider but it only ...

LeapFrog Leapster Carry Bag

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Educational Aids
from: LeapFrog


This is a durable carry case which holds the leapster inside by a zip. On the back of it there is a netting bag which is for putting up to 6 games in. My son (aged 5) got one of these for Christmas and it has meant that his leapster stuff is all kept together and therefore less able to become damaged. I would highly recommend one of these if you have, or are thinking of owning a leapster - well worth the money.
