Jakks Pacific Girl Gourmet Cupcake Maker by hvarmit Pros: children can make their own cupcakes
Cons: only 4 cupcake mixes included; resulting cupcakes are kinda gross; frosting is tricky I ended up buying this toy when it first came out because I thought it would be so much fun for my daughter, and also a toy that we could spend time together with.

Away in a Little People's Manger by jekka Pros: A great nativity for your little ones to share the Christmas experience with.
Cons: Jesus could do without the blond hair and halo. Leary of new additions to Little People's collection? I know I was.

Keep Your Dome Warm and Looking Good by rancid1993 Pros: Warm, Thick Knit, Looks Good
