Vtech - Rhyme & Discover Book

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Learning and Education
from: V Tech

June 12, 2006
We've had this book on our changing table to entertain our daughter practically since she came home from the hospital. Now, at a little over two months, she has learned how to move some of the buttons to get it to play music (she can do the star and the baby, and occasionally the barn door) on her own. It is a good distraction for her while we're changing her. When she gets a little older, I'm sure we will still be using it for sing alongs and eventually help her learn to read.

My little guy LOVES this toy. It is his current favorite (he has the musical inch worm and sensory cube too) and he is always drawn to Freddie. It was a great buy.

Playskool Busy Poppin' Pals (Colors May Vary)

This was a disappointing purchase. It really isn't all that interesting after the first couple of minutes. My child didn't seem very interested after our initial play session with it. If I had it to do over, I would pass on this.

LeapFrog® Leapster® Learning Game: Cars

My son has had this game for a year now and it is by far his favorite Leapster game. I enjoy playing it too. It has multiple levels, several different tracks and tons of learning packed in. You have so much fun playing you don't realize you are being educated at the same time!

I'm a kindergarten teacher and so I've read thousands of children's books to my students. This book and the similar book "Gallop" by the same author, are some of our favorites and are loved by both children and adults. I've also given both books as gifts that received rave reviews!

I just purchased this toy for my grandson. As I was trying it out I have found that it only goes up to 5 on the numbers, and "f" on the abc song. The music songs only play for about 5 seconds and then fades out. Is this the way this is supposed to work or did I get a dud? Please help so I know whether to send it back or not.

I bought this product and a microscope for both of my grandsons for Christmas. They still enjoy them. They are both 8 years old and it introduced them to a whole new world.

Math Whiz

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Learning and Education
from: Educational Insights

June 12, 2006
My 5-year old just started Kindergarten, but LOVES math (which they will only really cover a little of sometime this year). I bought this for him after his first day of school (he's "earned" a toy, and the one he planned on wasn't available). He choose this instead. He loves it. Its easy to use, even for one not too accustomed to computers, etc. He has had trouble with other electronic toys that try to get him to answer in X seconds, but loves that this tells him how long it took him, but doesn't pressure him to get it done in a certain time. The progression from easier to harder on the levels is great. He was "way past" some early levels, but he could do some mid-levels and still be challenged. We even discovered he could divide while he used this toy, ... Read More:

Melissa and Doug Wooden Shape Sorting Clock

The 60 seconds for each minute are missing! Needs to have the 60 seconds marked on the clock with every 5th number (over the large hour numbers)emphasized so children can learn to count by 5's to learn, for example, 10:10. There is room to do this... and would make a good educational better.

LeapFrog Learn & Groove Counting Maracas

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

October 15, 2008
I bought these for my neice for her 1 year old birthday. I read reviews that said the one maraca that lit up and made noise got more children's attention than the one that was a normal maraca, however, my neice preferred the plain one the first time I gave them to her! She liked how she could shake them to her own beat. She didn't quite get how to shake the one that counts, sings, and tells her the colors, but she liked how it lit up....This toy requires a little patience because if it is in the middle of saying a color for example and you shake it again, it won't register and immediately switch the the next color. I think with a little time and help from mom she will put 2 and 2 together that the words match the actions of the toy.
