Review of Faber Castell Beautiful Ballerina Music Box by
danielalong
Advantages: Crafty make
Disadvantages: fiddly
Ballerina Music box
With grandma's birthday looming and a Little Miss who insists on making her own cards and gifts, this was her choice for something grandma could NOT live without!!
What can I make?
A star shaped jewel box with a ballerina on the top. Perfect for little people who enjoy making useful things.
What do I get?
Inside the box are all the "ingredients" to make a musical box :a two piece (lid and box) 3" diameter box (just right ... ...magnets, which are used to magnetically attach the ballerina to the box; gold music button; gems; foam tape; paint; brush; instruction booklet
Making the musical box…
The instructions are very good, and whilst they are in words and pictures, young children will still need an adult to help with the making of the box.
There is the obligatory warning to wear old clothes, and then we get straight to the nitty gritty of how to make the box. I would ...

Do yours hang low? Happy Ears Eeyore
Review of Fisher Price Happy Ears Eeyore by
kismet
Advantages: cute, easy to use, lovely donkey
Disadvantages: bit repetative
...Ears Eeyore is made by Fisher Price. It comes fixed to an open display box.
The toy is recommended for 18 months plus. It is operated by 4 x AA batteries.
WHAT DOES EEYORE LOOK LIKE?
Well, he looks like Eeyore silly! For those of you who don't know, he is a friend of Winnie The Pooh and he is a blue and purple donkey, with a pink bow in his tail. His tail falls off, so is usually attached with velcro or a ribbon.
Eeyore is a very morose animal, ... ...The toy is about 11" high and looks like the classic Disney Eeyore. The ears move up and down when he sings.
SO WHAT DOES EEYORE SING?
First he says Hello, I don't suppose you wanna sing a song with me. The he sings one of two songs:
Do your ears hang low, do they wobble too and fro?
OR
If your happy and you know it (clap your ears)
Then he says its time for his ears to take a nap. Press his foot again and he will sing the other song.
His ...

THIS WILL CHALLENGE THE INTELECT OF ANY AGE GROUP
Review of 20Q Radica by
llbcollins
Advantages: cheap, unfathomable, entertaining
Disadvantages: if you give it a little leeway you will be impressed by its answers
I saw the adverts for 20Q on sky television, and didn't really get what the advertising was about, apart from it appeared from the trailor to be advertising a gimmic which was supposed to be able to read the minds of random pedestrians, and after that I didn't think any more of it. After all it was probably a joke, right? I didn't think any more of it until I saw it in toys r us when I was looking for a gift to give my neice (13) and really didn't ... ...press a few buttons through the packaging to test the 20 Q, and I was really impressed, it did guess the word I was thinking within 20 questions.
I guess it works by process of elimination .. it asks whether something is animal, vegetable or mineral and kind of narrows down the thing you are most likely to be thinking of by quite a thoughtful interrogation process, where you must choose from the following responses "Unknown","No","Yes", "Sometimes".

Lazytown, not lazy kid!
Review of Fisher Price Lazy Town Super Sportacus Set by
sarahbarrow
Advantages: The kids look very cute when in costume.
Disadvantages: Bit pricey!
On our recent trip to Chapel St Leonard's we, (myself and my husband), decided to help our children on their way to spending the copious amounts of money they seem to have accumulated.
(My kids have this amazing trick of making their money last them twice as long as the money lasts for anyone else, I keep trying to get them to do the weekly shop for me but they are having none of it!)
After getting up to Wednesday with Saturday being the last day ... ...spending money had actually been spent, we frog marched them to the Skegness branch of Woolworths to spend a little!
The first thing that caught my son's eye was the one thing he'd been asking for, for quite sometime, but I had been refusing saying how it was a waste of money, unfortunately I had no choice this time, hence the review I will now write!
The product I will review is the "Sportacus fancy dress costume".
For anyone not familiar with ...
