Scene It? - The DVD Game - Friends

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Toy Types
from: Mattel

May 20, 2006
I have been a fan of Friends ever since it started, and like nothing better than watching the re-runs whenever I happen to catch them on TV! When someone gave me this game for a birthday present, I was really pleased.

You get to choose from Friends related items as your playing piece, amongst them a coffee cup, a Laz-E-Boy chair and the frame found on Monica's door around the peephole (my piece of choice)! As with the normal Scene It, you can play a short round or a longer game, and questions vary from guessing the next line to be said (this is usually multiple choice), working out anagrams of guest stars, answering a question from a crossword, and many other questions from the 10 series. If I had my way, I would get rid of the ... Read More:

Crayola Gigantic Colouring Book

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Toy Types
from: Crayola


This is a really good colouring book, lots of simple pictures to colour in. However this book is not gigantic in size, I think they mean gigantic in the number of pages. Its a normal A4 size book. But well worth the money.

Stylophone - The Original Pocket Electronic Organ
As has been said elsewhere, it's fun, sounds OK but the build quality and finish leave a bit to be desired. I'm sure back in the 70's it was better quality than this. Nice retro packaging. Good stocking filler for Christmas.
Does Rolf still get royalties??

Winning Moves - Pass the Pigs

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Toy Types
from: Winning Moves


This has to be the best and most addicting game ever! I love it. It reminds me when I was younger (about 8-10 y.o) when I used to go to the pub with my dad and his friend, I'd make them play it with me all the time and 'bet' money, because I was only young, I obviously had no money, so if they won they got nothing, but whenever I won, they'd give me 50p, I used to leave the pub about a tenner up, haha. I've been trying to find this game for ages, could never find it anywhere, never thought to look on Amazon! So happy I've found it again.

and it would fall over .
not put off by this i sent it back and got a new one
that only lasted for one week and my little girl was so very upset
great toy but not durable at all.

Bandai Ben 10 Deluxe Omnitrix

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Toy Types
from: Bandai


My 4 year old son borrowed a Omnitrix FX from a friend for a couple of weeks and played with it non-stop, had so much imaginative play with it that when I saw this one reduced to £12 I knew it would be well worth the money.
The deluxe one does seem to be much better quality than the F/x. It has a thick fabric strap that fastens with velcro so fairly easy to put on and take off. It is a big hunk of plastic but my son loves that about it. It has a black and white screen and various modes in which too play. this is where problems arose a little for my little boy who has not yet learnt to read. He cannot play in battle mode as this consists of a little animation of Ben running for a while and then at random times the watch makes a noise to ... 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.

Scrabble Original

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Toy Types
from: Mattel


This might call itself Scrabble Original, but it isn't. The Scrabble sets I played on as a lad all had wee holes in the board and pegs on the tiles so that the game wouldn't be ruined by the slightest knock. Sadly no more. It also comes in a stupidly huge box to make storage unnecessarily awkward. Disappointing.

Tomy Rainbow Aquadraw

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Toy Types
from: Tomy


I have got 2 of these for my 2year old, one at grandma's and one at mine.

Such a good idea. No other mess. The pens fill with water. My daughter first got hers aged 1... and no, that wasn't too early! She has loved it ever since.

They aren't perfect,but what is? the mats are susceptible to dirt, as are the pens. I read a couple of review from mums who didn't like them as their children threw juice over them or got the pens dirty, but seriously, keep other liquids away from your children whilst they are being played with, and the pens away when they aren't being used, and whats the problem?

These are with no doubt one of the best toys my daughter has ever had and I already have one in my basket as a Christmas ... Read More:
