Melissa & Doug - Deluxe Stamp Set

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Wooden Toys
from: Flair


My daughter is 4. She absolutely loves these. The box is deceptively large and the stamps inside are larger than it looks from the image. Great value for money, and huge entertainment value for junior.

BRIO 33076 Wooden Railway System: Freight Yard Set

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Wooden Toys
from: Brio


Having looked at the various Brio sets available, we opted for this as it had such a variety of components: bridges, railway crossing, crane, forklift truck, a motorised engine and a push along engine that makes appropriate train noises; the number of track pieces allows for a variety of circuits (unlike the figure of 8 tracks) which gives more interest. The only criticism is the relatively poor way in which the track sits in bridge supports, which is fairly unstable and encessitates regualr rebuilds (particularly with enthusiastic toddlers around!) but this is a minor quibble in what is otherwise an excellent set.

Really great fun and even better value for money :D
Hours of entertainment is created from playing with these bright, colourful skittles and without breaking the bank. I would recommend them to anyone with young-ish children or who just wants an enjoyable game of skittles!

BRIO 33357 Wooden Railway System: Lifting Bridge

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Wooden Toys
from: Brio


A nice addition to the Brio set we'd just bought for our daughter (nearly three). She likes to wind the handle to make the bridge go up and down and likes the little gates at either side too. A nice touch is that the handle's been designed to be held and turned by small hands.

The one caveat is that you need a special piece of track from Brio to allow track to go under the bridge rather than just over it. It's difficult to find and without it, the bridge doesn't have as much appeal.

BRIO 33337 Wooden Railway System: Short Curved Tracks

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Wooden Toys
from: Brio


Well, pretty much does what it says on the box. Four shorter curves to add to your Brio system. Like the short straights, they help join things together when layouts don't quite reach or fit - invaluable when creating larger layouts as my daughter got older and required more than one station, a tunnel, two bridges, a farm...

However, four isn't many - like the larger curves one pack only makes a semi-circle - and we found we had to buy multiple boxes of basics such as these which works out extortionately expensive. Better, we found, to supplement your Brio starter set with cheaper (but almost as good quality) track from one of the many alternative manufacturers.

As I've mentioned elsewhere though, buildings (sheds etc) ... Read More:
