Lauri Toys Number Puzzle Boards and Pegs Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is another great simple learning toy. All of my kids like to play with it, age two to teen. Each number comes out of its frame for easier recognition of the shapes of the numbers. Each piece fits only to the piece with the corresponding number of holes. This helps with understanding what the numbers actually mean. When all holes are filled with pegs, a number tower can be built up and knocked down. This toy provides hours of quiet, creative, learning play.

Can Do Roo Anything Roo Can Do, You Can Do Too Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a fun game with upper case letter, shapes, colors, and number to 9, You draw a card fromt he kangaroo's stomach, if you card has a square on it you hop to something that is a square, if it has a number, you hop that number of times, if it has a letter you can either just say what the letter is, or say a word that starts with the letter. You keep the cards that you get right and when someone draws a stop card, the game stops and you count your cards.
I left the kids keep all of their cards and we just played it as an educational activity.
This game would be frustrating for a child that doesn't know any of the letters or numbers, possibly you could take out peices and only put in peices that they are familiar with and just add a couple new letters or numbers that they are working on learning.
The concept of hoping to items is nice, My 3 and 4 year olds really are enjoying the game.

Fisher-Price Sesame Street Silly Sounds Remote Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a winner! Its mostly taken the place of the real remotes in the house - which is great! I find it comical that some of the other parent review have said this toy is "not educational" or not much for "brain development". People - toddlers learn by playing. That is how their little brain develop. A toy remote is not a set of flashcards, but thankfully toddlers don't require flashcards to learn and develop their brains.

Smart Snacks Counting Cookies Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)These were given to my 2 1/2 year old as a gift and I will admit that, at first, I thought it was a rather dull gift. My daughter LOVES it, though. She uses the cookies for counting (and sometimes counts the M&Ms on top). She also has fun playing with them in her kitchen. She cooks the cookies and feeds them to her stuffed animals. She counts how many cookies each doll gets. She spends a lot of time arranging the cookies (and other foods) in the cookie jar.
It's really a great toy. We like a lot of the Learning Resources products.

Lauri Transporation Crepe Puzzle 4 pack set - Airplane, Helicopter, Choo Choo Train, & Fire Truck Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)You can never go wrong with Lauri puzzles. The bright foam pieces make them easy to pick up and place for little fingers. The larger puzzle pieces are smaller and approrpiate for 4 to 6 years old. I have bought these puzzles for all of my grandchildren. Age appropriate would be 18 months to 6 years. The transportation pack is pretty useless except to place them on a shelf. Forget the transportation pack and buy the puzzles!
And remember, Lauri replaces any lost pieces free!

LeapPad: LeapStart Pre-Reading - "The Birthday Surprise" Interactive Book and Cartridge Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have tried leap pad books in the past and this is by far the absolute best in educational, fun, and replay value.
If your looking for a good leap pad book that will keep the kids occupied and learning constantly, this is it. We have bought leap start books in the past and have been dissapointed until now, this one is flawless !! Great layout, colorful pictures, and many pages more than one game on them. This also has an added "music" button at the bottom to stop and start background music and the larger 'GO' buttons help alot. This book also contains a 2 page layout of the letters of the alphabet which is colerful and complete with pictures and sounds for each letter "T is for turtle. t-t-turtle" or "T, Turtle" (also makes little cartoony sounds of a turlte walkling)The phonics book had a dull typed out version cramed into 1 page, nothing for a kid to get excited about.
If you have a child that will is learning letters sounds or how to read, this book is an absolute MUST HAVE (avoid the Phonics one)I hope all the leap pad books get as good as this in the future and this WILL NOT confuse the kids like the others do..
About me : My 3 year recieved it for her birthday and loves it and plays with it again and again because there are so many places you can tap to find something new. My 1 and a half year old son is learining the letter from it all by himself, he even tries to sing along with the alphabet song.
Other Leap Pad books purchased : Richard Scarry Vocabulary and Phonics Leaps Friends A to Z. (also the sample book that comes with the leap pad - which I thought want good but not great)

Fisher Price Little People Time-to-Learn Preschool Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This toy is so fun and educational! My 18-month old daughter got it for Christmas. Although she obviously isn't really using it for its educational purposes yet, she loves pushing the buttons, moving the rings on the abacus and playing with all of the little people. The abacus rings do stick slightly at the top when moved around. But my daugther had no trouble moving them. As others stated, I was very pleasantly surprised to see the little storage compartment in the back, it does fit all of the people easily. This is SUCH an adorable toy. I really like that it comes with 10 little people, all holding a number 1-10. It also comes with a little easel and piano - cute additions. Fisher Price definitely thought about all the small details on this one!

Click Here to see more reviews about: Fisher Price Little People Time-to-Learn Preschool

A colorful introduction to counting fun, the Little People Time to Learn Preschool bustles with entertaining and educational play for the preschool set. A touch-activated mat at the base of the little red schoolhouse provides interactive games and quizzes, as ten Little People friends help kids discover numbers, colors, shapes, and fun sounds. Slide the abacus to hear numbers being counted, or wander the sidewalk as it travels from one to ten, following fun sound effects, songs, and spoken words.
Each Little People figurine proudly carries a number from one to ten to help with matching, and comes in a satisfyingly grabbable size for little hands. If students need a break, its off to the teeter totter, slide, sandbox, easel, or even a "quiet time" rug that plays a cheerful tune. With so many areas to explore, it's easy to find age-appropriate play; if all of the school time fun proves too much for younger children, they can play with just the figures and a piano, swing, or slide. Three AA batteries (included) power the pretend play at the Time to Learn Preschool. --Heather Lyndon
