Advantages: Fun and encourages gross motor skills
Disadvantages: Noisy

I love this product, and it's one of my best buys ever! My first car is a big chunky car which runs on batteries which last ages and comes with a plastic figure which sits in the driving seat of the car. The figure makes a clicking sound when you move his head arms and legs and has a small orange button on his belly that squeeks when it's pressed. What you do is you place the figure into the driving seat of the car pressing down as you do so. This ...
...the engine starts as it rolls across the floor. It stops and then you hear a childs laugh as the engine stops, and the car comes to a halt. It's brilliant and my son had great fun playing with it. It's idea for a child who is attempting to crawl or take he's or her's first steps. As the child can't help but try to move after the car as it drives away. It's great value for money suitable for either a girl or a boy. Only downside is there is no ... Read review

Advantages: Great sounds as cars go down
Disadvantages: None

This great click clack track comes with 4 cars in bright colours. It makes a fab click clack noise as the cars go down the tracks, encouraging your child to want to play again. It is really good for your chil's co-ordination, as they have to make sure all 4 wheels are on the track before it will work. The cars are also great to play with on their own- my son loved playing car parks with them. Its lovely to see a wooden toy in this age where plastic ... Read review

Advantages: Easy to make.
Disadvantages: Falsely advertised!

...one of her new "favourites" Hannah Montana. The product I will now review is "Hannah Montana - create your own lip gloss set". Anyone not familiar with Hannah Montana here's a little background information - Hannah Montana (played by Destiny Hope Cyrus) is by day a normal 14 year old school girl who has just started her local high school, but by night and in her disguise ( albeit a long blonde wig and some truly fabulous clothes), she becomes pop ...
...in the show and also Hannah Montana's manager and songwriter. I'm ashamed to admit that now his mullet has gone he is very tasty, hence the reason I don't mind watching this programme! This is in the same vein as HSM, which in fairness I quite like also, unfortunately there seems to be an incredible amount of merchandise that goes with these shows, hence this review and the next twenty! (lol). The packaging is simple yet effective on this product, ... Read review

Advantages: Can be complete entirely by the child.
Disadvantages: Are a buggar to pick out of the carpet!

After visiting Toys r us to spend my daughters copious amounts of birthday money she picked the product I will now review, much to my dismay. We have had previous experience with this product and it has taken me almost twelve months to finally rid myself of the tiny balls that are included in the set, that when coming into contact with anything with a little moisture in it, they dissolve and stick to pretty much anything they come into contact with, ...
...them out of my daughters carpet! The product I will now review is "GR8 ART- Bindeez magic beads, jewellery pack" It has been noted that I may spend a little too much time describing the packaging that these products come, I have taken this on board but am always worried someone may read my reviews, go out to purchase a product on my recommendation, then come back with the wrong product, there are so many different variations in these sets if I ...

Advantages: dashing!
Disadvantages: expensive

...Doctors', but there is one Doctor who broadens a smile across my face with just a glance. Yes, it's David Tennant, who plays the Doctor in BBC show Doctor Who, after just completing his third series. He's had three companions by his side; Rose (Billie Piper), Martha (Freema Agyeman) and Donna (Catherine Tate), but now it's my turn! When I first saw a life-size David Tennant in a shop window, I longed for one straight away. Though I couldn't find ...
...though, David dressed as the Doctor with his classic stern impression, looking down at me (not down ON me though!). It was definitely worth it, even if I do forget he's there now and again and almost have a heart attack when I catch a glimpse of him *must remember it's not a burglar...* Of course, if it was the real David in my room, it would be an amazement! This certainly does look life-like, his clothes very realistic (his tie is even twisted ... Read review
