This is one of those products that you get all hyped up about at first, but then just sits in your garage and you never use it.  I wish I would have bought something that you didn't constantly have to work to change around when you want to work on a different part of your body.  It is also heavy, and not very easily moved around if you aren't keeping it set up in one spot of y...

This is a top of the line kids kitchen!  I bought this after doing lots of research on play kitchens.  I debated between Step 2 and Little Tikes.  In the end the charm of the Step 2 kitchen won out.  It has held up great to my kids playing with it endlessly.  It looks more like a trendy adult kitchen than the cheap plastic ones you are used to seeing.  I'm not ...

This is a great DVD for parents and children to watch together.  I love the Baby Einstein series of DVDs and this is a original favorite of my kids and I.  It features works of Mozart and other classical music, paired with stimulating visual effects that is both entertaining and educational.  The best thing about this DVD is that I don't feel like I am aiding the rotting of m...

This is a fabulous DVD.  The premise of the DVD is that it goes through all the major rooms in a house like the kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, etc... and identifys major objects in those rooms i.e...bed, bathtub, table.  It speaks the word, shows a picture of the word, spells the word, and signs the word.  This a great way to teach your child simple signs.  Marlee Matlin is a s...

This is a great DVD if you would like to teach your children about colors.  It features the works of Vincent Van Gogh as an introduction to the various colors.  It is extremely visually stimulating.  As other Baby Einstein videos, it also features classical music, it also features lines from famous poems.  I really think Baby Einstein videos are the best thing that you can g...

This is an awesome upgrade to the classic Candy Land that I fondly remember playing as a child.  I was debating between this version and the classic one I remember, but I'm so glad I got the Dora edition.  The game board is exactly the same, however in place of the old characters there are characters from the Dora the Explorer TV show.  My daughter fell in love with this game...

 The manufacturer's suggested age on this product is 1.5-5 years. We purchased the Cozy Coupe for my daughter when she was 1.5 years old. I felt that she was a little too young to handle it at first.  She started enjoying it more when she was between 2 and 2.5 years.  I did think it was a little hard to put together, however not impossible.  The directions could have bee...

I purchased this stud finder because I was tired of using the old fashioned way of banging on the wall with a hammer to find a stud.  I found it very easy to use.  I simply pressed it against the wall while pressing the button and sliding it along the wall.  When a stud was detected it lights up.  This is now a must have whenever I'm doing home improvement projects that ...

I thought that I would really like this product.  The manufacturer's suggested age is 9 months to 3 years.  First of all, no 9 month old will understand the concept of this game, therefore I would suggest a minimum age of 1.5.  The controller only works if it is sitting RIGHT in front of a DVD player, and that is a big pain.  I also found that the controller needs alot o...

I love this carseat.  It is one of the most expensive convertible carseats out there, but you get what you pay for.  I will never consider another brand of seat.  It installs very easily with the latch system and tightens great.  You get a great fit every time no matter how many times you switch it in and out of cars.  I love the belly pad on the straps to prevent legs ...

This is a great stroller.  It is a more expensive stroller, but worth every penny.  The only thing I don't like about it, is that it does not have cup holders, but there are so many other benefits that I can overlook that.  It manuevers great for a double stroller - very easy to push.  It folds up like an umbrella stroller and has a handle on the side, so it's easy t...

I was not happy with this monitor at all.  I purchased it because I needed a second monitor.  I didn't spend very much on it, it's one of the cheaper monitors out there, and I got what I paid for.  The monitor ALWAYS has static.  No matter how quiet it is, I always hear static on the monitor.  It is very annoying and makes it hard for me to sleep hearing that.&n...

This is a great highchair.  It has a 5 point harness so you child stays secure at all times.  It is adjustable and at times I found it a little hard to raise up and down, especially if you are trying to do it when the child is sitting there.  I love the fact that it has snap on trays that you can put in the dishwasher.  This is a huge timesaver for me because I just throw th...

This is a great learning tool for babies, toddlers and preschoolers.  It can be played with by spinning the ball on it's base, or you can remove the ball from the base and roll it around.  It teaches alphabet, songs, and sounds.  It really has alot of functions so you won't get bored of hearing the same things over and over again.  You can press each letter and it te...

This is a really great thing to have for new babies.  It offers calming and soothing music, lights, and sounds for younger babies, as well as some fun interactive qualities for older babies. This really calmed my baby down at night, and when he got older he would even push the button himself, activating the swimming fish, lights, and music, and it would soothe him back to sleep without me ...

The Fisher Price Rainforest Jumperoo is an updated version of the old doorway jumpers from 20 years ago.  This freestanding jumper is much safer and much better quality.  It has music and sounds that can either be played continuously, or be set to start when the baby jumps.  The springs that enable movement are covered by cloth, so you don't have to worry about baby getting t...

We purchased this bouncer for my son when he was an infant.  I love the rainforest theme, the colors are bright and the animals are cute.  This will really captivate any baby.  This bouncer doesn't really "bounce" as much as other bouncers might.  The sounds and music can be played continuously, or can be activated when the baby kicks one of the animals hanging...

This is a cool product because you can use for entertaining or sleeping.  It is a standard bouncy chair, not too bouncy though, but you can lean it all the way back so the baby can lay flat.  It has a vibration switch on it, which is soothing for a baby.  It also plays nature sounds.  I liked taking it outside because it had a net that zips up around it and it completely enc...

After trying several other booster chairs I found this one and have stuck with it - it's the best!  It has staps behind and on the bottom of it so you can secure it to pretty much any chair.  It fits on very securely and you can adjust it to be very tight.  I like that it has a dishwasher safe removeable tray.  It folds up and has a shoulder strap so you can carry it wit...

This drill is very easy to use.  It is great for small household projects like hanging pictures, starter holes, and small screws.  I like the fact that it has a lock feature on it.  This is good for me because I have small children and I wouldn't want them to accidentally get ahold of it and hurt themselves.  It is battery operated (it takes 4 AA batteries) and it does s...
