IlluStory Make Your Own Story Kit

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Craft Kits
from: Creations by You

June 12, 2006
this product is great in theory...

I bought this for my 7 year old son. He decided to make his story online and it took him DAYS to complete. He worked very hard on it. After he was done I filled out the "about the author" section and uploaded his picture. Well part that was eaten by their website or something. Because I rechecked it before I put the order through and it wasn't there. So I re-entered it and clicked all the way through to the checkout.

WE got the book (finally, since they send it via media mail)and it had many errors - it had strange shapes that aren't on the screen when you are editing the the book on the website. and it was missing the "about the author" section. My son was in tears. I emailed the ... Read More:

Spin Master PixOs Super Studio

from: Spinmaster

I did not wanna buy this toy but my son begged me and spent his birthday money on it. My son took it out of the box and tried to get the wrapping off of it. He had a hard time and the tube broke. Now we can never get the balls to come out of the tube. We must use our fingers to put pictures together. The pixos take too long to dry and they dont stay stuck together. They break apart easily. If anyone bumps the table the pixos fall apart and your picture is gone. I knew that I didnt wanna buy this toy. If it wasnt for my son wanting it, I would have stayed away. Maybe you should try to convince your kid to stay away so you dont make the mistake as I have as a parent. This product should have cost [...]. It is so cheapily made.

Melissa and Doug Slice and Bake Cookie Set

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Craft Kits
from: Melissa & Doug

August 01, 2008
This is such a wonderful idea! My two year old daughter was completely taken with this toy on display so I have purchased it for her for Christmas. There are so many different combinations for the cookies, so many ways to play with it. The velcro is a fun way to mix and match cookie dough and the utensils are so realistic. My 4 1/2 year old son was intrigued with these too so I know that they will be fun to play with for a long time. Excellent product-I can't rave enough!

Melissa & Doug Flower Power Wooden Bead Set

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Craft Kits
from: Melissa and Doug

June 12, 2006
This review will begin with my own experiences with these beads, and later will include opinions of it as a toy from the perspective of a childless person. I have started the new hobby of beading. This kit includes beads I can use for making jewelry. The only disadvantage of them for jewelry making is the holes are very large in the beads. (This would be an advantage to children, I would think.) I have solved the problem of the big holes by either knotting stringing material and slipping the beads over the knots, or inserting a smaller bead inside the wooden one.

I was pleased with the quality of the materials and the value for the cost. (The wooden box alone is worth half the cost of the kit.) The colors are very bright and the beads are ... Read More:

Lettering in Crazy Cool Quirky Style (Klutz)

Whether it is posters, shadow boxes or running for student council, my kids always seem to have "projects" to do for school. This book has been great for inspiring them to come up with creative ideas for the titles. When making the project is fun, they spend a lot more time working on it and can't wait to get to school to show off their masterpiece!

I bought this toy for my 2 1/2 yr old grandson and he LOVED it.
He had fun dressing Joey in different fun uniforms, the super hero is his favorite. The wooden tray the toy comes in helps him organize the parts when he is finished playing. The toy was delivered sooner than the scheduled delivery date!

Melissa and Doug Deluxe Stamp Set

from: Melissa and Doug

June 12, 2006
This is a fun stamp set and has entertained my daughters on several occasions. However, the ink is not entirely washable. I have at least 2 shirts with stains from these stamps. My expectation was that it would be washable in the same way that washable markers are. No such luck.
