Play doctor with your littlest pets in the Get Better Center by jurgrace Pros: Good toy for the little caregiver at home
Cons: Small parts for little ones; Bandaid stickers wear out quickly I think Hasbro's Littlest Pet Shop toys were the gift to give last winter. Between Christmas and my daughter's fifth birthday party, our house became inundated with Littlest Pets, and I only had to pay for one of them! One of my daughter's ...

Interactive Masterpiece! by wendy7734 Pros: Many interactive features.
Cons: Some design flaws. I have to admit that when I first saw the Parents Electronic Activity Puzzle Cube I think I wanted it more for myself because there were so many activities for a child. I purchased the puzzle cube for about $30 and I found it at ...

Tired of the same old advent calendar? Playmobil might have the answer for you by jurgrace Pros: A different, more "fun" kind of advent calendar
Cons: Cumbersome set up I remember back when advent calendars didn't bribe you with anything. You just opened up each day and found a cute little picture inside. Now, kids are trained that advent calendars have to at least contain a piece of chocolate inside. Many toy ...

I came, I saw, I ate, I tossed- Hallmark Hannah Montana Lunch Plates by bradshawcl Pros: works for Hannah Montana birthday, strong plates
Cons: expensive if buying for a large crowd, ugly bottom. Someone here had a birthday- a Hannah Montana cake, so of course we had to have Hallmark Hannah Montana Lunch plates. I got a package of 8 for around $3 at Wal-Mart. It could get pretty expensive if you had more than 8 guests coming to get a bunch ...

High School Musical Singing Sharpay Doll by hvarmit Pros: she sings and says phrases frpm HSM
Cons: doesn't really look like her My daughter asked for this particular doll for Christmas this year, so I bought it on sale at Toys R Us a few months back. She was a late fan of High School Musical and really only wanted this doll because it is molded after the girl who plays ...

High School Musical 2 Ryan Doll by hvarmit Pros: extra outfit, favors the actor
Cons: somewhat more expensive than the others of this series My daughter entered the High School Musical obsession rather late, instead opting to obsess over Hannah Montana, Camp Rock, and just the Jonas Brothers in general. But, with the release of the third HSM movie, she has asked for a few of the ...

Model Power Ho scale Black BMW 3 Series Convertible by some_guy5 Pros: good price, nice exterior details

Four trains in the shed by bloodline23 Pros: More durable than it appears, comes with a good amount of track.
Cons: Only compatible with other take-a-long track unless you purchase adapter track pieces. My son is a HUGE Thomas the tank engine fan. As a result, we received a train table as a present, and I had to decide whether to go with the wood track (which we had very little of), or the take-a-long track that he had been using regularly with his take ...

WAHHHHH, You sank my battleship! by mql1208 Pros: Plenty of fun, easy to pack and tote.
Cons: Accomodates only 2 players at a time. "You sank my battleship" was a tag line from a Battleship commercial I remember well from my childhood. Paraphrased from Wikipedia: Although Battleship became popular in the US as commercial board gameboard, it was first published by the Starex ...

Melissa & Doug Cutting Food Box...for Hours of Educational Play by kamel622 Pros: *Educational
*Fun *Encourages creativity *Sturdy Cons: *No lid for the box *Velcro may need to be re-glued occasionally I was so surprised when I realized that I hadn't yet reviewed a wooden food set that I've had in my family daycare for a couple of years now.

THE TARDIS PLAYSET - it's bigger on the inside! by desslok Pros: The set is huge, with a ton of detail!
Cons: Expensive and hard to get in the states When I was a kid back in the 70's, I was huge into Star Wars toys - like any kid of that era. The centerpiece of my collection was the Death Star play set. It was unbelievably huge and was the best toy I had growing up. If I had the TARDIS play ...

Solve the Rubik's Cube in Less than a Minute (or Spend a Lifetime Trying) by quasar Pros: versatile, can be a math tool, appeals to many different types of people
Cons: can be difficult to solve without taking apart, stickers start to peel I've never paid too much attention to fads. I never got why platform heels were cool, the point of pet rocks eluded me, and a swatch was just a watch as far as I was concerned. Sometimes I stumbled into a fad anyway. When E.T. made my Speak & Spell ...

No matter how carefully you plan and how innocuous the materials provided are, if a toddler really wants to make a mess, he or she will. There ...

However, last year before Christmas I was able to get this on Amazon.com for $4.50 and free shipping. Since it was usually in the $15-20 range, I figured why not. See, my daughter had about a gazillion ...
