When I called my sister to see how her son (5 years old) liked this gift, she laughed. Apparently he burst into tears upon first seeing it because it wasn't another super hero action figure. She sat down with him and his older brother (6 years old) and they played a round and they've been playing it daily ever since. She also mentioned that her 5-year-old tends to be a bit of a sore loser and this game has helped her to help him overcome that tendency.

LeapFrog® Tag Reading System

This product is awesome! I love it and so does my 4-year-old son. I really can't say enough good things about it.

My son enjoys using his "Magic Pen" every night to "read" his two books - Ozzie and Mack and Cars Tractor Tipping." Many nights, after I put him to bed, I will hear the pen talking to him and the characters of the book come alive. He reads these so much that he will tell me as soon as he turns the page "Oh, it's Frank!" ... or make the sound effects that the characters make before even placing the pen on the pictures. He also enjoys turning the pen on and just listening to the story without the book.

I really like having the ability to see his progress by going online and checking out his learning path. ... Read More:

We bought this for my daughter as part of HomeSchooling's projects. She and my husband work together but mainly our 8-year-old does it pretty much on her own- very fun and easily instructed! What a great product!!!!

Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Learning and Education
by: Judith Viorst

July 15, 1987
I found this book while I was looking for a gift for a six year old boy today. I loved it so much that I got one for the birthday boy and one for my almost-six year-old daughter. It is absolutely amazing.. Alexander is having a bad day, no not just a bad day, a horrible day, as we, adults, call it "a day from hell"... So he decides to move to a far away land where people do not have to live days like this - but guess what? He figures it out.. Anyone, anywhere can have a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day... It happens to everyone.. He is not alone, and it is not the end of the world..

I don't find this book depressing at all.. It is realistic and entertaining at the same time.. I recommend this book for not only kids (probably ... Read More:

LeapFrog® Leapster® Learning Game System - Green

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Learning and Education
from: LeapFrog

I have a leapster, and I like it. It's green, and it's got lotsa games inside it, and you can put more in the top of it. I got the doggie game, the one where you wash and pet your dog, and I like it alot, and I got the one where you make creatures, and make rooms for them to live in. I have a case, and you always have to make sure when you go somewhere, you have the game inside 'cause if you get someplace, and you only got the case, and no leapster in it, it's not as much fun. I like my mom's Pretendo (Nintendo), but mine has more games for a little boy. I think it's a good game for kids, My mom is getting me the Spongebob game for the car ride to Disneyland.

Fisher-Price Kid-Tough Waterproof Digital Camera Pink

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Learning and Education
from: Fisher-Price

July 15, 1987
This camera is an excellent entry level educational "toy" for younger children. One draw back is that it does not have a handle to carry it by. The child takes pictures at the zoo, but mom or dad ends up carrying the camera, wheras if it had a carrying handle like mom or dads camera then the child would feel responsible by carrying their own camera. Over all it is an excellent camera and the price is a great value!!!

What can I say? If you have liked other Melissa and Doug products, you'll love this one. It's really nice that it comes with so many letters, because your child can use them as a movable alphabet apart from the puzzles!

Fisher-Price Kid-Tough Waterproof Digital Camera Blue

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Learning and Education
from: Fisher-Price

July 15, 1987
Would you give a child a camera to play with on their own? Now you can. Fisher-Price has been making children's toys since 1930 and this is truly a wonderful toy for a youngster. This is very durable and your child can drop this camera over and over again without fear of breaking it (within reason, of course. I can't say you can drop it off the roof!). It will survive laying in the wet grass or even under 3 feet of water (for no more than 30 minutes they say). It's the simplicity that your kid will love. The viewfinder is actually `two-eye viewing' like those old 3-D viewers from the sixties. Your child can just push their face right into the camera and easily learn what makes a good picture. The controls are easy and you'll probably find ... Read More:
