Crayola Colour Wonder Colouring Book & Markers

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Characters and Brands
from: Crayola


Ah... Crayola... what will you think of next? This one's a winner for many reasons. The concept is brilliant in that the children can use markers (like they see their older siblings doing), but are not able to ruin the walls, sofa, etc. in the process. You use clear ink markers to color the book and the colors appear as you draw. The color is in the pen, not on the paper, so it does leave some creativity to your children in choosing what colors they want to use where. I took this with me on a recent plane trip as a "keep busy" toy... no marking up the plane seats and it kept the kids busy for a while. I do hope that Crayola expands on this product to include more books, as mentioned in a previous review. Great CLEAN fun!!!!

Tomy Cella Sticker Machine - Pink

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Characters and Brands
from: Tomy


My two children had one each of these last Christmas. The paper in both cartridges has torn and now I can't reroute it so either have to hide the sticker makers and then throw them or fork out for 2 new cartridges. Unless you are prepared to closely supervise the use of these I would be wary of buying. The Crayola creations stickermaker is better.

Rush Hour Traffic Jam Puzzle

from: Ravensburger


Bought this for my son for christmas. Thought it might be too difficult for him as he wasn't 5 until end Jan. However after only a little while he could easily do the beginners section! He really enjoys the game and concentrates quite hard whilst doing it! Great game would highly recommend!

There's not a lot in this for £9. Probably the most expensive plastic in the world.

Fisher Price Lazy Town Super Sportacus Set

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Characters and Brands
from: Fisher-Price

June 30, 2006
I bought this outfit for my son as he had been invited to a Sportacus party. He wasn't such a fan beforehand, but now we have become Sportacus - even giving up chocolate for 'sports candy'... won't last long, I'm sure!

On the downside, the armbands keep falling off, which is frustrating for a little one, as do the moustaches, but I found eyeliner works much better for this anyway!!

We have insisted on wearing the whole outfit to the shops, the park, everywhere... Great entertainment and as long as you are prepared to put up with the song 50 times an hour, I'd go for it!

Fisher Price Kid-Tough Digital Camera - Pink

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Characters and Brands
from: Fisher-Price

July 10, 2006
We gave my daughter this toy last Christmas and she was delighted with it...for five minuets. It looks great and I have to say we've dropped ours several times and it seems quite tough. However the visual quality of the pics is very poor and the easy to use buttons are good but the pics are easy to delete sometimes by mistake! To be honest our camera is in a cupboard loaded with unrecognisable images we will never down load. The software is easy to use but the pictures dont inspire you to bother to print them! My daughter was six last month and she thinks the camera is babyish and wants one that looks more grown up. My verdict is a good enough toy but its overpiced it should be marketed around £30.00.

Tomy Pop Up Pirate

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Characters and Brands
from: Tomy

January 01, 2004
This is so much fun, me and my 3 year old son love it. One of the best things about it is the fact that you dont need batteries. The suspense of the game it great and the pop up pirate makes us jump every time no matter how often we have played it. It is so easy to set up my son does it all and feels quite confident and important about that. Putting the swords in the barrel is good for a childs co ordination, counting them into equal groups of differnt colours for each player is also educational.
We love it and are glad we bought it anyway.

Tomy : Octopals

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Characters and Brands
from: Tomy


OK like many of these bath toys they are good fun and can keep you playing in the bath with the kid(s) for ages.
But a note of caution!
When finished playing with them in the water make sure you empty out the water from these things.
As over time mould will build up inside of them and you see little dark spots inside. If the child puts them to their mouths and squirts of sucks from them like most will do then these mould spots will be swallowed.
They also will appear in the bath water as I have discovered.
