The toys are bright and colourful. The music is not as good as it might be but i feel the mobile is busy and there are plenty of things to keep baby occupied

Tomy Starlight Dreamshow

from: Tomy


We bought this for our little girl when she was about 2 months old. She is now six months and this product is great. In the four months of using it, it has failed to put her to sleep within the 10 minute cycle only 3 times (when she was teething). Would strongly recommend it to other new parents!

Grobag Egg

from: Grobag® Egg


We purchased this item a week ago and have found it to be extremely accurate (It correlates with readings from two other thermometers).

The colour coded output is also very handy as you only need to glance into babys room to check that the room temperature is OK.

I understand that the latest Grobag Eggs have a relocated temperature sensor (moved from top of connector to rear of connector) which reduces incidence of false temperature readings - maybe its just the older units that have the problems ??

We are very happy with our purchase.

Top 100 Baby Purees: 100 Quick and Easy Meals for a Healthy and Happy Baby

by: Annabel Karmel

September 01, 2005
There is a great new book for parents who like to consider the options and chose the best way for their baby and their family: Baby-led Weaning: Helping Your Baby to Love Good Food (Rapley & Murkett).
Purees are unnecessary for babies of 6 months and over, who are developmentally capable of starting on suitable finger food. Free your baby from the boredom of purees and enable your baby to start with a healthy and happy relationship with real food!

Faces (Baby's Very First Book)

from: Macmillan Children's Books

October 25, 2002
My little girl has been interested in these types of books from the age of 2 months (she also has a pets one) when she became fascinated by the pictures. She is now 4.5 months and still loves to look at the pictures (with a few sound effects from mum or dad!) or just grab the book and scrunch it up (it makes a crinkly noise) and put it in her mouth! It's very light so she can move it around easily. These kind of books aren't expensive and I reckon they're well worth the money.

VTech First Steps Baby Walker

from: VTech

October 25, 2002
I bought this for my (then) 12-month old niece, thinking that she would be too young to use it. Not at all! She was absolutely hooked, could not get enough and was walking before many of the kids older than her. My sister-in-law told me that lots of her little friends at Nursery were suddenly bought the same V-Tech Walker when they saw my niece walking!

My niece is now nearly 3 and yet she still loves her walker - she uses it to pretend that it's a pram and she dances around to the music. It's really quite a clever little thing, because it teaches numbers, letters and it has all these tunes. She learnt very quikcly how to get the sounds that she wanted to hear. She now has two little brothers and they're already enjoying the music, ... Read More:

Lamaze Gardenbug Wrist Rattle & Footfinder Set

from: Learning Curve

October 25, 2002
This a fantastic learning toy my baby loves it, there is so much for them to take in they will never grow tired as there always something new to explore. the only problem we had was putting all 4 bright noisy bugs on at the same time was a bit overwelming at first so i would suggest trying one at a time at 20 min intervals

Soft Play Playnest & Gym

from: Galt

October 25, 2002
I recently purchased the Galt playnest with gym and am extremely disappointed. I love the nest as it provides a soft comfortable support for my daughter, however the plastic pipes which form the framework for the gym are too rigid to create an arc and keep popping out which makes the gym collapse. My daughter (12 weeks) isn't even old enough to reach the toys so it's not as if it is recieving ANY pressure - it still collapses. I wish I'd read all the reviews before I bought and am shocked that Galt haven't rectified the problem given that clearly so many people have found the same issue. It's almost as if they designed it but never actually tried to put it together themselves.

The Contented Little Baby Book Of Weaning

by: Gina Ford

April 06, 2006
This book is awful, actually i think the whole contented little baby range of books are rigid and dont treat baby as individual.

I went the baby led weaning route with my 10 month old and it has been fantastic. Had absolutely NO issues with any solids as following the baby's lead. Also no need for all the purees etc.

Mirror Me! (Baby Einstein)

by: Julie Aigner-Clark

August 15, 2003
It hasn't got mirrors it has bits of tin foil which give you a headache, it's like looking in the funny mirrors at the fun fair. Don't bother buying.
