D-REX Interactive Dinosaur

This toy isn't much better than most of the remote controlled toys you see out there. However, Mattell is putting a HUGE amount of advertising and hype into it for Christmas. I hate that toy companies sucker parents into buying a 2 hour thrill for their media-driven and gullible children. Save your money--ignore the commercials and go check it out first.

Spinmaster Air Hogs Zero Gravity Micro Car - Red Sports Car

This has got to be the coolest Toy Invention in a very long time! This is an awesome amazing toy that will leave you & your kids WOWed!! While the battery life could be longer, it dies out just when you'd had enough of the noise that comes along with it. I mean seriously parents - do you really want your kid racing this car around the walls and ceilings while your watching tv, doing the laundry, cooking dinner? For 20 minutes it's great and then after that you're happy for the battery to recharge until next time. This is a GENIUS invention & is sure to be a HOT TOY for years to come!

Barbie® & The Diamond Castle Princess Liana Doll

My 4 year-old daughter could not think of anything she wanted more than this Liana doll and the Alexa doll when it came time to spend her birthday money. I wasn't thrilled because Barbie's in our house get kicked around and forgotten. I was surprised to find that these dolls are actually a lot of fun. She loves changing the dress around and listening to the dolls sing together. I like that you can stop the music by turning the knob that changes the dress. It makes a chime sound and the music stops. It's nice for when the two dolls are not singing the same song or if you don't synchronize them right. Some have complained that the dress doesn't come off, but I'm really happy about that. My daughter takes the dresses off her barbies and then asks ... Read More:

Martian Matter Alien Maker Playset - Spaceship

Definitely one of his favorite presents from his birthday party. No batteries necessary, how great is that? The "mud" is kind of like play doh that you press an impression into and fill it with alien "lava" It takes about 5 minutes (or a little more) to dry and he's been having a blast with it. There are quite a few 2 piece combination aliens to make. The combinations are really cute and seem endless! Lots of fun to make and then to play with the aliens and the spaceship.

WowWee Alive Lion Cub Plush Robotic Toy in Tan

from: WowWee


The WowWee Lion Club is wonderful and my 13 month old friend loved it. The eyes and mouth worked great after I changed the original batteries but the purring part did not. What a hassle to have to send it back to Amazon for a refund, especially since it came in a box large enough to hold an Ambrams Army tank. Even so, I am trying again and reordered based on the child's reaction and her parents. They wanted to order all three!

Ben 10 Alien Creation Chamber

from: Bandai


The first one lasted literally 10 seconds out of the box. The tiny plastic clip in the 'chamber' that holds the alien's torso broke off the first time he tried it. We returned it and got another one. Right out of the box, the torso wont stay attached to the same plastic clip that broke the first time. It wont work without this. He likes to play with the figures that came with it, so we will probably just throw the chamber in the garbage. Dont buy this piece of junk.

Grandson is looking forward to the Lego Indiana Jones Motorcycle Chase.
It will be a gift. I love legos for children. They use their mind as well as dexterity in building sets. We started when he was two years old. Legos are great as a family activity. We have six grandsons of all ages and we all love Legos.

This has got to be the coolest Toy Invention in a very long time! Did you ever think you'd see an Remote Control car that could climb walls and ride upside down on the ceiling!! This is an awesome amazing toy that will leave you & your kids WOWed!! While the battery life could be longer, it dies out just when you'd had enough of the noise that comes along with it. I mean seriously parents - do you really want your kid racing this car around the walls and ceilings while your watching tv, doing the laundry, cooking dinner?

We purchased this dinosaur for my 1yr old son, Ruben. Not only does my child enjoy it but us as parents do too. It is not one of those annoying toys you want to hide after a while. Very durable and fun this is one of the best toys that fisher price could have came up with. Price does the product justice. Definitely would recommend to purchase.

Fisher-Price Laugh and Learn Learning Puppy

from: Fisher Price


My sister-in-law bought this for our daughter when she was only a few months old... she instantly took to it... eyes sparkling and and limbs wiggling with glee every time we pushed one of its buttons.

As I write this, I am hearing my daughter, who is now 2 1/4 years old, singing with her puppy from her bedroom... it is a great comfort to her as she falls asleep.

It is still on its first set of batteries, two years later, and is still going strong!

Since this toy was such a hit with her, for the past two years at Christmas, I have made it a point to buy one of these and donate it to the Salvation Army's toy drive. It makes my happy to think of the joy some other child will have for years to come with their new puppy!
