from: Pintoy


My son was give this for his first birthday - he has played with it every day since. He uses it in it's traditional hammer-epg way but also like to stack the pegs in a tower on the edge and also uses the whole thing for a seat! I was a bit sceptical when he opened the box but the traditional toys certainly seem to be the favourite in this house!

VTech V.Smile Blue Bundled with Thomas & Friends

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Development Toys
from: VTech


I had been trying to think of ways for our 3 and half year old to start recognising his alphabet - unfortunatley he hasn't taken to the jigsaws my older son enjoyed and I didn't want to push him into anything, but wanted to make it fun.

When I saw the V smile I thought 'Bingo!' - this will interest him as he is already familiar with playing basic games on cbeebies website and I noticed there was an alphabet game available (together with his interest in Thomas - I thought I'd cracked it!!!!)

So - I read 1 or 2 vague reviews here and there - but convinced myself that this was definitely the toy to have.

I decided to get everything working when the boys were in bed - so that I could avoid the inevitable impatience ... Read More:

Very pleased with this, set has plenty of detail to interest the kids and impress me,and appears to be very sturdy and well made. The bunk bed even has mattresses.Does not have every thing for your house e.g bathroom but is very good as a starter set.

Orchard Toys Dinosaur Discovery Puzzle

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Development Toys
from: Orchard Toys


This is great as it has a "key" of the main animals and plants around the edge with their names, sizes and when they were alive. Kids can learn a bit about the dinosaurs from that, but also use it to find the dinosaurs in the picture once they've put it together.
There's a lot going on in the picture, too, so you can spend time talking about which dinos are vegetarian and which meat-eating, etc.
The colours are bright and attractive (although you might have to explain that no-one knows what colours these animals were).
My only suggestion would be that there could be a booklet or something included to give more information on each species, or even a separate book linked to the puzzle (that Amazon could do a deal on if you bought both!).
