Fur Real Biscuit My Lovin Pup

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > School Equipment
from: Hasbro


This toy looks absolutely beautiful,very life-like of a golden retriever puppy. However the mechanics are far from great,they are very noisy and very "rachety" we had our puppy only a day and during that time he was only "working" a few times then he laid down by command something made a very loud noise in his back and he couldn't get up again,presumably something had broken,which I was very annoyed about as he is expensive and for that sort of money you don't expect the "puppy" to break in such a short space of time and particularly as it wasn't a child that had it. We also noticed that although he did the 6 commands he didn't necessarily do them when he was "told"to, he basically did what he wanted.!a bit like our "real" golden retriever!!. ... Read More:

Top Trumps - Horses & Ponies

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > School Equipment
from: Winning Moves

May 15, 2008
My daughter loves Top Trumps and is mad about horses. Obviously, this colours my review!
The photos of all the horse breeds are good quality and nicely down with both a mini pic of the whole horse and the large picture mainly of the head. The categories are interesting and pretty accurate although a little subjective in places! The category regarding the horse's relative beauty has caused some fierce debate in our house.. The addition of a unicorn and a pegasus also proved a little contraversial and became coveted cards for our 5 yr old (who wants to be a unicorn when she grows up...)

So, while the horses and stats are a little light hearted, it is a lot of fun and will be popular with all horse loving kids out there. I would ... Read More:

Buckaroo

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > School Equipment
from: Hasbro


This is a classic gamic which I remember being brilliant from childhood. The theory of it is brilliant, load items until the donkey throws them off but this version is cheap, tacky and it doesn't even buck unless you prod it roughly once all the items are on. The items to load are all very poor quality.
The mechanism to reset the donkey is also difficult to operate.
Another game which has been completely ruined by poor production and cost cutting.
Don't waste your money on this version. If you have a very young child 'Bounce Bounce Tigger' is much better quality and works slightly better than this game.

Monopoly Here & Now Electronic Edition

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > School Equipment

The world has gone mad, I'm 26 and I would say I learnt a lot through many of these old games which required a little brain workout. Buy the classic version; it's great fun and you'll actually get to use some brain power :)

BrainBox - All Around the World Educational Card Game

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > School Equipment
from: Green Board Games


Amazing - an educational game that my children don't mind playing! My 6 and 9 year old love this. You have 10 seconds in which to memorise as much information as possible about a country - flags, towns, exports etc. Then you roll a dice and have to answer a numbered question about the country. That's all there is to it. If you answer correctly, you keep the card for that country. The person with the most number of cards at the end of the game wins. If I sat down and quizzed my children on their knowledge of flags, towns, countries, they'd find it really dull. For some reason the egg-timer and dice turn this into a fun game for them. What a find!

Tomy Thomas & Friends Bath Island

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > School Equipment
from: Tomy

January 01, 2004
My boys love this toy. They have had loads of fun over the last couple of years getting Thomas to slide down the ramp and pouring water over the water wheel. It's their favourite bath toy.
We haven't had problems with it sticking, but it can slide as it's quite heavy. If the water isn't too deep it's fine.
