On the radio

Advantages: Bright, teaches animals sounds, ABC and 123
Disadvantages: On and off button in difficult place

...Last Christmas our daughter was only 3 months old and so we struggled finding toys that were actually suitable for her age and then we came across this one which is aimed at children from 3 months to 2 years. The toy is available in two different colour options, pink and primary colours and costs around £10 from many places such as Argos or Tesco. The toy as you would expect is made to look like a radio with a carry handle, the surround of the toy are covered in soft material with A B C and different shapes printed upon it, there is also a pretend aerial made of soft fabric and stuffed with some sort of foam. The on and off swtch is on the top of the radio underneath the handle which we found our daughter struggles to turn on even though she can easily turn on other toys and we believe this is due to the location of the button...

Review of VTech Soft Singing Radio

Well Worth Your Times! The Radio Times.

Advantages: Informative and entertaining.
Disadvantages: My husband hogs it!

...~~~Read all about it!~~~The Radio Times is really the only magazine I read from cover to cover every week. When you consider that I only watch the television for a couple of hours maximum a week, it seems a bit odd. It does say a lot for the way the magazine is put together though. It is called the Radio Times because when it was originally published there was no TV. It now covers both comprehensively. Apparently at it's inception in 1923 it cost 2p and refused to cover tv listing as the tvwas seen as a serious competitor to radio.I find it a very interesting read. There is always at least one article in there that grabs my attention. It is laid out imaginatively and attractively with a good balance of pictures and text. The listings pages are logically and clearly displayed...

Review of Radio Times

Great Little Rubber Radio

Advantages: Novelty, great design, good sound
Disadvantages: It got nicked

...My other half used to own a great little radio (Lexon Tykho Radio) but it got nicked out of our back garden when she left it there with the gate wide open ? invitation to all burglars out there. The reason it was so great was due to the fact that it was bright green (you can actually get these radios is a vast range of bright retro colours) and the casing was made of rubber silicone. It was a great looking funky radio and it really used to love the look and design of it. This radio had al the normal functions, i.e. FM/AM channels and it came with its own batteries too (a novelty nowadays) ? (4 x AA size). The radio itself was quite small at around 3cm x 8cm x 13.5cm (approximately) and the volume control was excellent and allowed for small changes in volume with just the slightest touch. Sound-wise, this radio was also great...
