Perfume Lab

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > School Equipment
from: Interplay UK


I bought this for my 8 year old daughter and she liked it - mind you it only lasted for a day or so and the scents were not much to write home about. I cant help thinking that a good ol go with some rose petals and water has about the same educational level. i think that it could have had more scents in it - and more interesting ones too. These packs never have enough stuff in them and once they are gone they are gone. Mind you my daughter did enjoy doing it but beware - you may have to wear rose and mint perfume!

Fisher-Price Elmo Live

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > School Equipment
from: Fisher-Price

October 14, 2008
My 2yo daughter was bought one of these as an early Xmas present.

I just don't get the incredible overwhelmingly-positive reviews that this thing has received. I mean, I know elmo is somewhat more ingrained in to US culture than that in the UK but overall, the toy is a) expensive and b) of limited appeal. Specifically it's hard to understand what he's saying sometimes, there are a limited number of actions/speec programs and apart from pressing his stomach/foot/nose/back etc, I can't see how this is going to last beyond a few days.
I'm not into being the arbiter of my child's toys - but at £50+ I am seriously considering selling this and getting something more worthwhile (daughter hasn't yet got to play with in in earnest ... Read More:

A game that I bought after reading the reviews and have not been disappointed. It is great fun for the child and the adult and teaches at the same time. Fully recommended.

Barbie Diamond Castle Princess Liana

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > School Equipment
from: Mattel


We bought this for our daughter's 5th birthday along with Princess Liana's partner doll, Alexa. Why 2? simply that the price had almost halved and they sing in tandem so thought we would get both.
The build quality is the usual Barbie doll quality and will withstand medium play. The shoes are awful and do not stay on, the tiara is flimsy, but otherwise pretty good. We have resorted to using blue tack in the shoes to keep them on and much better now!
The famous transforming dress: at the back of the doll is a plastic pink "clockwork" type key. You turn the key and the left and right front panels of her dress lift up and swoosh round to reveal the glittey lining panels, creating a new outfit. It is fairly successful, certainly my 5 ...

Elefun - Motorised Butterfly Catching Game

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > School Equipment
from: Hasbro


Like all those games you wanted when you were a kid and saw the cartoon on tele, then then box was great and it was so exciting,until you played it.When you realised that it was just a load of cheap plastic and paper.
Its disappointing, the butterflies are bits of twisted wax paper which got wet or lost, it makes an unpleasant noise and its all over in less than a minute. In fact I've just thrown it out.

VTech Kidizoom: Multimedia Digital Camera Pink

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > School Equipment
from: VTech


The V-Tech Kiddizoom camera was bought as a present for my four year old daughter. The camera is very easy to use - within about two minutes of the Kiddizoom being out of the box she was snapping away happily, taking photos of parents, siblings and lots of the cat. The camera is certainly robust; it has been dropped on a number of occasions and has suffered no ill effects whatsoever.

The camera is well designed for little hands, and the menu screens and additional functionality (such as games, memory manager) are easy to access and intuitive. The picture quality is fair, but it should be noted there is no zoom function and there can be some significant shutter lag. As such the Kiddizoom should be seen more as a fun introduction to ...
