A great mind-challenging game. Quiddler is a very challenging game for adults and teenagers. It helps to develop vocabulary, is easy to learn, and doesn’t take hours to play. Younger children can also play, but adults will have a decided advantage.
We LOVE this bike!. Well, 1st off, we got the bike on SALE. I see that the price is now back to normal, but regardless, this bike is wonderful! Putting Spider-Man 12-Inch Bike together was a snap! And, I am a single mom who worries about whether or not I will be able to piece these intricate boys’ toys together! 
But, the bike was assembled in under a 1/2 hour and my son adores it! He is 3 years old and simply loves Spiderman. The bike not only looks cool to him, but it is sturdy, which is important to me. I think this is one of the best summer purchases we will make this year! I am sure we will get much more enjoyment out of this bike before he outgrows it in a few years.
Pleasing sight and sounds. My 2 1/2-month old loved Soothe & Glow Seahorse at the store when I was trying out toys! Pressed the tummy to activate the music/light. Press the tummy again to stop the music and turn off light.
Pros
- Can remove fabric and hand-wash. (I didn’t want to throw it in washer/dryer in case it shrinks since the fit is pretty tight around the plastic unit housing batteries and the music box).
- Light is very comforting
- Color scheme is soothing to baby and adults
- Songs can be played louder or softer
- Songs are calming and sound clear
- My baby smiles when she sees the sea horse’s face
- Easy on/off
Cons
- Wished music lasted longer. Baby needs time to fall asleep and remain asleep. Am looking to see if Cloud B Sleep Sheep will do the trick.
By the way, I bought mine at Babies ‘R’ Us for $12.99 before tax.
a little heavy. Nice bring-along-toy for baby. But is a little on the heavy side for a very young baby. Based on my experience with my own son, I would think most babies 4 months or younger would have difficulty holding / lifting Baby Einstein Takealong Tunes
christmas gift for new baby. It’s hard to buy for a 5 mth old,but this seems to fit for a little one.It’s soft and has lot’s of places to hold onto for little hands.Soft sounds and colorful.I think he will enjoy.
Kids have fun. Wasn’t sure how to rate this. The overall concept is very simple, and the activities easy enough where the cards are almost silly. The thing is, they are simple, so why did we never think to do them before? It does help spark some dinner time fun, but once we read through the cards, it’s not something we look back at. For example, one game is to do a round robin and each family member says a word in a different language. Another is to take something off the table and guess what is missing.
The kids do have fun with the games, and with some imagination you can do this one on your own.
Wonderful fun for the whole family!. I have played this game many, many times. It has given me hours of fun . It’s easy to play and has a large amount of math related fun. I recomend this game to all parents.
Grownups can play, too!. Scavenger Hunt for Kids is a super game, that we can play with our kids, without being bored! It gets us all up and moving and requires a little creativity. The kids need to be able to read – we paired our 3-year old with an adult – and we all enjoyed ourselves. Dashing around the house, bumping into each other, searching for things was fun for all. I will certainly get this game out again, when the kids want us to play a game with them. I recommend this game.
Easy to learn & Quick to play. I bought this game based on previous reviews with high ratings. This is one of the best card games I’ve ever played and Hasbro Games Monopoly Deal Card Game is very easy to learn. The rules may seem tricky at first, but it is easy to learn in one round. I’ve played this for a couple of months, and it’s become a craze in my family, among friends and my co-workers. It’s a great “game night” game to have. If you love monopoly (the classic version) but want a quicker version… then buying this game is a must. I’m definitely buying a few sets as Xmas gifts
Cheap and Great. Living in the big city if Planet Bike Blinky Safety 1-Led Bicycle Light Set isn’t nailed down people will steal it! Actually even if it IS nailed down they will steal it, the nails and the thing it was nailed down to…Real simple to install and very bright. When I lock my bike down they just clip right off to take with. As mentioned in prior reviews the front light is not a substitute for a strong night beam, however I blink both ways because in Chicago everything is well lit. I’m more interested in not getting hit then seeing where I am going. Good product, well built and cost effective. Amazon is great and I have not had one single problem with them so far. Keep it up.
