The Farmer Says Review

The Farmer Says
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The recommended age for See 'n Say is 18 months, but we bought it anyway. Our seven-month old recently started enjoying animal noises we'd make for him. I tried this toy for him in the store and was greeted with the same smile and giggle we got from quacking like a duck for him at home. He is probably far from learning how to pull the handle himself, but we do it for him and he watches with delight. Each night, we read him a few stories before bed and we use See 'n Say the Farmer Says as if it were a book. We hold it in front of my son and pull the handle a few times to hear animal sounds and he thinks he just heard a fabulous tale.
This toy has a half ring that can be flipped back and forth to display different animals. There are 16 animals, which are named and make their individual sounds when the handle is pulled. There is also a song sticker that plays Old MacDonald had a Farm or The Farmer in the Dell. And there is a quiz sticker that asks you to find the animal based on the name of the animal or its sound. The farmer is on an arrow in the middle and you point it toward whichever sticker you want and then pull the handle.
I only have two minor complaints with this toy. The handle sometimes sticks on the way back up and makes a soft grinding sound. Also, the volume is a bit loud and there is no volume control button. Overall, it's a great toy.

The classic learning toy is better than ever. Shaped like a barn, See 'n Say teaches your child about 16 different animals and features two unique flipping pages. Kids can point the arrow and pull the lever, then flip the page for more animals to choose from. There is also a new quiz mode. It plays "Old MacDonald" and "Farmer in the Dell" melodies. It requires 3 AA alkaline batteries, which are included.

This toy is totally worthless. The motion detector rarely works. I set three of them up in my house and so far the only noise out of them was when I set them up. The sound quality is very poor. This toy is absolutely totally worthless.

Okideoke Toy Microphone (Assorted Colors) Review

Okideoke Toy Microphone (Assorted Colors)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Initially, I wanted this microphone because the colors work so well for a boy (I was a little nervous about not getting to choose, but have ordered two and received a blue one, both times). I wasn't too worried about the functions, only that it looks like a microphone. I knew that my two year old would run around the house with it, using his imagination, and would also be able to sing along with his favorite music shows. The button does need to be held down while recording, and the amplification is not the loudest (which is just fine with me). I pushed the buttons for him at first, then he figured it out and has so much fun! He encourages us to sing into it, too. The first one was misplaced - it went everywhere - so I had to rush order another. The strap is a handy feature. He can put it around his wrist, it can be hung up when not in use, or clipped to a purse or diaper bag. Even the packaging is adorable. We could not be happier with this microphone!

Learning Resources Pretend and Play Teaching Telephone Review

Learning Resources Pretend and Play Teaching Telephone
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This toy can be used by babies and toddlers and up. Younger kids can use it simply as a pretend phone. When certain buttons are pressed there is a dial tone sound, a ringing sound, and a "busy signal" sound. My youngest was one year old when he began playing with this, randomly pressing buttons, listening, and really pretending to talk.
Older kids (5 or maybe 4) can use this as a teaching tool, with the parent. As described by the manufacturer (above) this has the capability to program in numbers, record your voice, and practice calling 911 or practice calling other important phone numbers.
So far we've only used the toy to play with during imaginative play. My kids have played with it so much that it is worth the cost. Kids who visit for playdates also gravitate to this toy and love to play with it. I highly recommend this as a great toy for pretend play.
Also great from this manufacturer is the pretend cash register.

Average Reviews:

My friend's daughter loves this item...
I sent it to her as she started her first daycare program. Let's just say it was a great ice breaker with her new friends..."What's that?" and "How does it work?" and "Is that what you Mom and Dad really sound like?"...she was a hit and it made her feel confident and outgoing while meeting new friends.
Would recommend to all parents to help get over that stress of being out there for the first time!

My Little Pony Princess Celestia Review

My Little Pony Princess Celestia
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
My 4 year old has started watching "My Little Pony - Friendship is Magic" and was so excited to get a Princess Celestia, even after immediately noting that she is the wrong color. The Princess is supposed to be white not lavender and purple like this doll. I am concerned that the wings will not last. However, my larger issue is Celestia's vocabulary - "My mane is so beautiful," "My wings are so beautiful" - Celestia is one conceited pony! We are keeping it and my child does "love" the pony, even she says she is "not quite right."

Spy Gear Lie Detector Kit Review

Spy Gear Lie Detector Kit
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
We purchased this lie detector kit for our daughter's 11th birthday, along with a few other "Spy" toys as she had requested. This was a HUGE hit! Although at first glimpse, it does appear as though it would be a cheap and flimsy toy, we have had no trouble as of yet. What we HAVE had is a TON OF FUN!!! Sure, it's not a 100% accurate lie detector kit...but come on, did you REALLY think it would be? We found that it gives accurate responses more often than not though, and that's all it takes to make it fun. The kids (AND adults) at her party were lining up to give it a try and the results were just crazy fun! Kids from ages 4 to adult were answering my daughter's questions and we were "learning" a whole lot about who has a boyfriend at school, who cuts their own hair, and which parents steal halloween candy from their kid's trick-or-treat bags! We have already had enough fun to say this toy was worth every penny! I say it's a great toy at a great price! P.S. We teamed this up with the invisible ink pen, the fingerprinting kit, & the voice changer, then added binoculars, a flashlight, notebook, and warhead super sour spray (for interrogating and "getting them to talk"!) We put it all in a black satchel for a very secret-agent, super spy gift.

Tuff Stuff Tape Recorder w/ Voice Warp Review

Tuff Stuff Tape Recorder w/ Voice Warp
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I purchased the Tuff Stuff Tape Recorder for my 6 yr. old daughter. She LOVES it. This product is absolutely perfect. Not only is it tough and durable, but it makes operating it very easy and self-explanatory for the kids.
Its large buttons are color coded with illustrations on them to indicate their use. The STOP button is red, the PLAY button is green. There is even an illustration inside the cassette area to indicate which way to insert the tape.
The microphone is a big hit with the kids. They can slide a lever to change their voices to sound like an alien, chipmunk, monster, or robot. They can even record themselves. The voice-change feature is best used while the child is wearing headphones. Only the child can hear the voice-change, which can be a great benefit for tired parents.
This tape recorder features a port for a 6-volt AC adaptor (not included) and a port for headphones (also not included). This player operates on 4 C batteries, which ARE included.
The only different thing about this player is the fact that one must hold down the forward or rewind button. I believe that this was intentional and is a way of saving on the batteries and the life of the cassettes. Either way, it's a very minor thing.
If you're looking for a good first tape player, then this is the right one. It's inexpensive, backed by the Fisher Price reputation for quality, and has all the features you could possibly want. I am totally satisfied with this product and would recommend it to anyone.

Toy Story 3 Rex the Dinosaur Review

Toy Story 3 Rex the Dinosaur
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I got this toy for my 2 year old son's B-day and both he and my 3 year old daughter love it (they are both Toy Story obsessed right now).
The toy looks EXACTLY like Rex from the movie, is super sturdy (my daughter tried to ride him the day we got him, so no, I'm not kidding) and is made out of a semi-flexible rubber-like plastic that makes him stand up to a lot of punishment without losing his form. And the best part is that he doesn't roar, so therefore, no batteries need to be replaced every two months.
His tail does have to be attached and yes, it will come off if a child twists it around the right way, but there's no sharp edges to worry about and the tail attaches right back on without issues. I guess if you are too worried about the tail coming off you could just glue it on, but I wasn't too worried about it.
I'm very very glad I got this toy and would recommend it to anyone looking for a sturdy toy that their children can actually play with.

Average Reviews:

I know I'm a kid. When you see kid reviews, you think of lies and commercial advertising. I'm telling you, I really DO recommend this friend! I couldn't believe that it didn't have any reviews yet, so I wanted to make a point that it did. This is a great toy for all people alike, something that everyone can enjoy. It's soft and cuddly, with realistic tufts of hair on the ears etc.
This is durable, with nice eyes and details. The best part is, when you squeeze it, it makes a comforting and realistic Great Horned Owl hoot!
I love owls and birds, but you don't have to to love this guy. I hope you all think about purchasing him...he rocks!
AND THIS IS FROM A CRITICAL KID!!

These are just 30 second recordable/re-recordable toys for kids to play with, nothing more. I got my son the monster face clip on version and got the pendant version for my daughter, and they have fun playing with them. My kids are 5 and 8. When they are playing on Wii they will say something into it to cheer each other on and then play it over and over. Annoying for adults around them, but cute for kids!
I only gave it 4 stars because really, they could be cheaper. It's kind of pricey for what it is.

I originally bought this for myself to help me remember things I think of when I can not write them down. However, when I opened the package my daughter loved the face and smiled every time I played my recorded voice, so now I leave it for her at the sitters. Every time she starts to get fussy, they play the recording for her and she gets distracted and calms down.
The battery died quickly, but it was fairly easy to change once I got through all the glue they used to assemble it.
