Advantages: Supposed to maintain dexterity and finger control, good price Disadvantages: far too hard for small children
The Early Learning Centre have a range of their own brand toys that they sell for a reasonable price. Generally they are either £5 or £10. They are based on well known game brands that sell for much more.

Four adults tried to complete the game but we all found it impossible to do. The children stood no chance, it is a good idea, but the pieces are far too small and fiddley. I took it back and exchanged it for marble run.
Advantages: good price, great product Disadvantages: small pieces could get lost
This toy was bought for my (then) 4 1/2 year old daughter for Christmas. What fun! For those who remember Operation, this is a similar toy. Remove the objects from the pets without making them make a noise. To add to the fun, each animal makes a different noise - the dog barks, the duck Quacks, the cat mieows and the rabbit goes boing!! Each animal has 4 objects to remove that relate to that particular animal (a bone for the dog, fish for the cat).
... ...relate to the animals more than they would to a body on an operating table. As with all ELC products, reasonably priced at £10 (although subsequently seen in the sale at £5!!) Also nice bright colours to attract the children and the tweezers used to remove the objects are fairly easy to handle for small hands. It is good because it can easily be played by one child on their own or by up to four if they each have their own animal. Depending on the ...

Advantages: Amusing and Entertaining Disadvantages: Can be irritating if they are not your thing
on this occasion.
I would recommend a Furby as an interesting alternative gift for older relatives or friends who live alone. They can amuse and entertain without causing the worries that a living pet bring (Vet's bills etc.). ...

Barbie needs no introduction, she's been around for years...she's even older than me! Talking with my daughter the other day we realised just why this doll has been a favourite for so long. She has everything! For example, she has a sports car, a caravanette, a moter bike, a pedal bike, a house, lots of friends, lots of pets, tons of outfits, an aeroplane, a jacuzzi etc... She can change her job as easily as changing her outfit, she can be a vet, a super model, a film star, singer etc...We set to thinking about what is missing in Barbies idealistic life and came up with loads of ideas for new Barbie dolls. Here are just a few.....Pensioner Barbie, Alcholic Barbie, Prisoner Barbie, Stripper Barbie...I'd better stop there before this becomes too offensive. ...

Yes, it is fascinating to watch the little Triop grow. Yes, they really do look like miniature horseshoe crabs. Yes, as a vet student in dorms where we aren't "allowed" to keep "pets," Triop world has been a life saver. But, no, I don't think the complete kit is value for money.
First of all, the good points. The Triop do hatch, as do dozens of Daphnia and a few Artemia (other cute little creatures which the Triop eat) as long as you follow the instructions carefully (ex. really do use mineral water, not tap water). In my first batch I got four Triop, six in my second. Re-hatching is quite easy if you let the water evaporate and allow the sand to rest for a few weeks, but you won't get any daphnia so you've got to have food ready for the baby Triop that hatch. While not quite as big or as anthropomorphic as the picture on the box ...
