Kidz Music Stars Portable CD Player w/Built in Speakers

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Audio and Video Players
from: MGA Entertainment

July 25, 2007
While the packaging claims that the player will play CD-R's, I tried several and none of them worked. It would begin to play the CD-R for 2 seconds or so, but then the sound would become choppy until it went silent.
The Player handled purchased CD's just fine. The speakers performed as I would expect for the size and price--tinny sound that doesn't get very loud.

Green - Massively Mini Media Music & Video Player

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Audio and Video Players
from: Hasbro

September 07, 2006
This is a perfect gift for the tween that doesn't have a ton of media to download. It holds 1 hour video and converts mpeg files too!! They can also store their favorite photo & 2hours of music. It has a builtin in FM stereo that allows you to save your favorite songs from the radio!! That, my niece tells me, is her favorite feature of this product. Very cool! I bought this on clearance for her from Kmart about 4 months ago.

Laugh 'N Learn Literacy Songs

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Audio and Video Players
by: Various Artists

September 10, 2004
Parents and young children/grandchildren will love this fun-filled 2004 compendium of "Silly Songs" which, as aptly described in the opening page of the insert, emphasizes the "effect of humor on learning."

Political correctness aside (one reviewer gave the entire 22 tracks 1 star due to what was perceived as "cruelty to animals" in one track - completely missing the point of the tune), this is the perfect disc to throw into the player when on long drives with children old enough to appreciate the humor and gleefully sing along.

The rest of the multi-page insert provides the lyrics to each tune, accompanied by suggestions for games, recommended books, and how to use the songs to broaden their literacy.

Star Player - Green

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Audio and Video Players
from: Fisher-Price

June 12, 2006
I got this after getting the Star Station for my son, but only being able to use the cartriges there. My son LOVES this and listens to this in the car all the time. I love it because he gets to listen to his music and I don't. :)

He even enjoys it soo much that he took it to his first Sharing Day at Kindergarten. He says he listens to it so that he can practice to be on American Idol. Whatever his reason, I love it because it allows him to listen to music and is VERY durable!!!

Playskool Dance Along MP3 Girl

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Audio and Video Players
from: Hasbro

September 06, 2006
It looks like a lot of people were fooled into thinking this was a real MP3 player. It's very likely since the toy's name doesn't say otherwise. This toy isn't without merit, but I think the flaws outweigh them.

GOOD Features: The LCD animation is cute at pretending it's an MP3 player. It has fake progress bar for "downloads". And there is a retractable, pretend cord to plug the toy to itself for "downloading". My kid found it fun pulling the short cord and pushing the button on the back to automatically retract it. The design is also cute and durable.

BAD features: Not a real MP3 player. The title can mislead many people. I had played with it before, so I knew before buying this item.
