Great toy for baby!!!
I just got this toy for my 9 month old daughter a few days ago and she loves it.There is so much to do so many activities.My daughter gets bored easily so this toy is wonderful.It keeps her busy time and time again.I do have one complaint though Fisher price makes you do all of the work to put together this toy.You don't get out of anything you have to screw on every part you could possibly think of.Some of the things could have been done eaisly during manufacturing.But it was well worth it.This is a great toy! And I think it will entertain her for a long time.

GREAT TOY!
I bought this for my son when he was nine months old.He loved it then and still loves it now that he is a year old.He plays with it everyday and is finding new things to play with on it as he gets older.I highly recommend this toy.It is a little bit of a pain to put together though.

Toy at Gamma & Poppy's house
My gamma and Poppy brought me this toy and It's GREAT!!I play with it all the time, I visit (once a month).I play with the door bell and turn the weather so that it's raining or sunny.I go in and out of the door and I play with the mail.I play with this toy all the time and it's one of my favorites and their house. Your little boy or girl will love playing with this toy. ... Read more

Editorial Review

If you grew up with a Radio Flyer wagon but lost it along the way, here's your chance to own abrand new one. The body and sides are made of finished wood. Painted bright red, the stake sides simplylift out, leaving you with a natural-finish flatbed. Steel wheels with big, inflatable pneumatic tires rolleasily on pavement or rough terrain. At 33.5 inches, the extra-long handle makes turning easy. The wagonbed is 36 inches long, 15 inches wide, 9 inches high, and 21 inches from the ground to the top of thewagon. The durable-tread rubber tires are 10.5 inches in diameter and 3 inches wide. If you're lucky, yourchild might let you borrow this wonderful wagon. --Louise Carter ... Read more

Paint Chipped
I only had the wagon a month and all the stain and paint started to chip off. It is a durable wagon, but was not happy with chipping.

Best buy for 2 kids close in age!!
My mom bought this as a present for my then four year old daughter, but I began using it for her younger brothers aged NB and 18 months and bought her a smaller version to haul her dolls. It fit an infant car seat and toddler perfect, is versitable enough to last and on long outings allowed the older room to move unlike a tandum stroller. That was ten years ago. Now I've started a "second family" with a large 21month old son and another son due in 5 weeks. This item was a natural choice, due to my childs size (32pounds). Most tandum strollers allow only 40pounds per seat, so he would quickly out-grow it. With the wagon he can be in it longer and when both boys outgrow it they can use it to haul all their treasures. It also lasts almost forever (we lost our last one in a fire a year and a half ago after having it for 8 years). It was a little weathered but still sturdy (we did have to replace two brackets on one side due to stunt riding!). I can enthusiasticly say this was the best child purchase I've ever made!!!

Great Design, Very Poor Materials and Paint
Hard to believe we are all reviewing the same wagon. While the design is very good, the materials and finish are awful. The wood used in its contruction is too thin - a piece on the bottom was cracked out of the box. The side panels feel as if they are made from balsa wood - I am concerned they will not hold up over time. Two of the panels are also very loose in their mounting brackets. The paint shows drip marks, missing spots, and globs on both the red panels and black metal. The red paint rubs off on our child's hands and clothes. I could have done a better job with a can of spray paint. I am seriously thinking of using the metal hardware as a base for a wagon that I build out of more substantial materials. We also have the Radio Flyer Walker Wagon and the materials and finish on that one are much better. ... Read more

AGES 18mo at least
This toy was a gift from my father for my son's first birthday and he could have cared less.At about 18 months, he started to pay good attention to the toy, and by 20 months, we have had to re-tighten the screws from all of the use!He glides down the hall and across the family room.The rubber wheels haven't left a mark on our hardwoods! The wood has cracked in under the handlebars, but doesn't seem to affect the over all performance.I say this thing would be better for 2 year olds and maybe just a few months before, but not a good 1st birthday gift.

Fabulous Toy!
I bought this trike as a replacement after a plastic trike broke.My daughter LOVES it. It's really sturdy, well built, and fun.She is 2 now and has just as much fun riding it as she did when she was 1.Even my 5 year old rides it around the house and it holds her as well.It is so much better than the other "classic trike" they have with the high handle bars...that one tips over and falls apart.Get this one for sure.It's worth EVERY penny!

Assembly required, but 12 month old LOVES it.....
It did not state assembly was required, but was easy for someone who is not good at such things. Gave it to my nephew for his first birthday. Loves it, especially ringing the bell. A great gift for a 1st birthday. ... Read more

Great present for 1st Birthday
The retro rocket is a fun toy for our son who just turned one.Before we even had it out of the box he was pressing the sound buttons.We were even more amazed that he was able to ride it from the start.I was initially concerned when I read that the wheels did not turn but like another reviewer stated that keeps him from running into the wall, etc.We are very pleased with this purchase and would highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a memorable 1st Birthday present!

Stellar Toy!!
From the moment my son first set eyes on this toy at 11 months, it was love at first sight. Six months later, it's still his favorite toy. When neighborhood kids come over to play, it's the one they all want to play with.

Initial assembly was a bit of a challenge, and I had to get my husband to help coax a few pieces together. It doesn't scoot well on thick carpeting, either.

Other than a couple of very minor faults, it's hard to get my son to leave the Retro Rocket alone. He loves pushing it around the room, and hiding his blankie in the seat compartment. His face lights up whenever he rides it. He especially loves the countdown to blastoff and the lights and vibration.

I was talking with the owner of our local children's consignment shop, and she mentioned that she seldom has the Retro Rocket come in, and when it does come in, it doesn't sit for more than a day before someone buys it. I believe it!

wonderful toy
I read all the reviews on this toy before purchasing. The rocket was a gift for my one year old son. He loves it and so does our three year old daughter. The size is perfect for him at this age and will still be good for him to grow into over the next couple of years.We like that the wheels don't turn, it keeps him from getting upset when he can't push it because the wheels won't stay straight like some of the other ride on toys. The rocket may seem expensive, but it does seem very durable and I know we will have it for years. This is truly a great toy and I'm glad I got it for my child. ... Read more

Fun toy for my bouncing little girls!
We bought this Rock 'N Bounce Pony for my youngest daughter's first birthday a month and a half ago.We got it because she LOVED to jump in her doorway Jumpster.Since she is such a bouncer, I thought this toy would be great for her current age.

She does enjoy the toy, but only in small doses.She might jump for a minute, then she's ready to get off.That's why I only gave it 4 overall stars instead of 5.I think I'm more excited about the toy than she is, although she does like it.

At first we attached the "support seat" and that worked fine.However, we also have another daughter, age two years and eight months.She REALLY wanted to jump, too, so we let her.(It states that the toy is for ages 9 months through age 3).She kept getting stuck in the support seat, so we removed it altogether.Now my oldest can bounce to her heart's content with no problems.The youngest needs help getting on and off anyway, so it works out fine that we took it off.I sit there beside her during her jumping and rocking, so there is no fear that she will fall off.I wish I could take the support on and off easily to better accomodate each child, but it requires a screwdriver.Obviously, there's no way I'm screwing the seat in then taking it off every time the other child wants to bounce.

I would recommend this toy for children ages 9 months to age 2.If the child is over 2 I'd be cautious about buying because they might be too big.My older daughter has almost outgrown it.(The seat is on the small side.)

The toy is well made and looks like it will last for years.My husband assembled it easily.Radio Flyer brand has been around for a long time, so I trust their good name for a quality product.

Overall, I'm glad we got this toy.Buy it if 1) your child really enjoys bouncing and 2) you plan to have more than one child.That way you'll get your money out of it.

Perfect for a baby
Our little one is ten months old and she LOVES this horse. We still have to stand by her but at least we don't have to hold her the whole time.This is her favorite one right now out of the three that she has. :)

Best rocking horse for 1 year olds and up.
My son loves his rocking horse.We got the toy for him as a Christmas gift and he rides it at least once a day.
My son is now almost 15 months old so I removed the waste
harness, as he showed interest in getting on and off himself.
It also works as a great replacement for a swing, since babies outgrow those so quickly.Several times he has rocked himself to sleep on his horse.

Very durable and safe, easy to assemble. ... Read more

Great Toy
We bought this for our son right around his 3 month birthday to keep at his day care provider's house and he has loved it every minute since then.He loves to bat the rattle and watch it spin around.Having the 2 volume levels is a nice feature. We also have the kick and crawl aquarium at our house but he prefers this one a so if deciding between the two I would pick this one.

Pretty Good Playmate
The one negative aspect of this toy is the fact that there's absolutely no padding for the baby to lay on. But to solve that problem I put one of my daughters quilt under the cover to make it soft and comfortable for her little body. I find the toys to be in her hands reach and the bright colors and sounds have helped her be more entertained with this toy

You are kidding, right?
I havnt purchased this toy yet but I gotta point out that the manufacturers age and suggested age of up to 24 months contradicts the safety warning a few paragraphs below saying its not suitable for children under 3 years old ! ... Read more

Editorial Review

Young children have a seemingly infinite capacity for exploration, investigating everything thoroughly and relentlessly as they try to learn about their world. While this Fisher-Price set is not likely to fully satisfy that curiosity, nothing ever will, it is likely to keep young kids quite busy and occupied. Eight blocks are included in the set, the clear cubes found in many modern Fisher-Price sets, and they are the key ingredients in the five interactive sides of the cube. There are options to stack the cubes up on a rack and then release them to tumble down with a turn of a lever, put them though holes to initiate perky sounds and flashing lights, and plenty of other fun games that should delight toddlers. Inside the block is room for up to 30 Fisher-Price blocks. There is some cause and effect teaching going on here but, as with all good educational toys, toddlers are not likely to think much about the learning; theyre too busy having fun. --Charlie Williams ...

A great all-in-one!
I absolutely love this toy- and so do my two little ones (twin 11 month-olds).We received this as a gift when they were 5 months old & I thought I would die, as it is pretty big & we have a small space. The babies loved it- all the sounds, lights, and the toys are so cute- the babies loved to hold them in their hands and inspect every them.They seemed to learn to sort & stack pretty quickly after recieving this, and seem to learn a new skill every couple of weeks- all with the help of this one big toy.Yes, it's big, but it also means you don't have to buy 4 toys that do what this ONE will.So sturdy- I will have one baby leaning on this on either side & it won't budge (I'm sure it's capable of slipping, but hasn't happenned yet).OH- WE DID PUT SOME GRIP TAPE ON THE BOTTOM OF IT SO THAT IT WOULDN'T SLIDE AROUND ON THE CARPET OR HARD WOOD- MADE FOR AN ALMOST ACCIDENT-FREE TOY BY DOING THIS.WOULD RECCOMEND TO EVERYONE!

suprisingly pleased
I bought this toy for my son when he was 8 months old. I was looking for some type of stand up play toy since he was trying to pull up on everything. I was torn between this and a play table. My son has been very happy with it. When I first got it open and we were checking it out I was very disappointed at the lack of activities. It seemed that it really did not do much. I was tempted to take it back. but as I watched my son with it I changed my mind. After all it was for him right? He seemed very entertained and he loves to put his weebles and balls on the spinning thing. I also bought the insurance that came with it. I normally would not do that but I had heard about the problems with the music and lights stopping after only a few months. My son bangs on this thing constantly. WE have not even had to change the batteries yet. He loves this toy. and my 5 year old daughter loves it too. They seem to get alot of enjoyment out of it. I was told you could buy more talking blocks for it but I have not seen them anywhere.

peek-a-blocks incrediblock
My 11month old never got interested in it!We would sit in the floor & play w/ it!I would show her the different things it did!
She would loose interest quicly!I think one of the mogor things wrong w/ it is the music is not loud enough to keep there attention!We have it turned all the way up & it still is pretty soft.Her other toys are pretty loud & they keep her playing!The box only has one speaker & it is on the side.So maybe if they put more than one speaker it would be better. ...

Great Investment!Activities for many levels and interests!
I'm a mom that has to buy one toy that will serve multiple purposes.So you can imagine my joy when I came across the Music n' Play table!On the top side, it's split between a piano and activity center, then flip it over and underneath is a miniature "lego" building table.Plus, it has storage for the lego pieces!I was looking for an activity table for my 8-month old son because he likes to stand and pull himself up on things.We've had absolutely no problems with its stability. Actually, he uses it like a walker, pushing it all around the kitchen.And it easily entertains more than one child at a time.I was hoping it was available at stores in my area, but even with shipping and handling, it was well worth the price.I highly reccomend this toy, I know Colin will enjoy his Music n' Play Table for a long time.

Fun, but what's with the music?
Our 13-month old enjoys this table a lot.However it sounds like all the preprogrammed music was done in Shanghai.Vaguely American pieces are played with distinctly Chinese instruments and arrangements, basically comprising a sad-sounding fiddle, xylophones, and drums.It's some of the strangest music I've ever heard from any kids' toy (and unfortunately it's somewhat scratchy due to poor sampling or tone generation).Also be aware this item takes two sets of batteries: one for the activity area and the other for the music area.Pros: easy assembly, lots of items for the toddler to play with, and unlike many of their other toys it's one they can play with standing up.

Awsome
I'm 11 years old. I went to my cousins house and played with this toy. I couldn't stop playing. It was so much fun. When my cousins got a real keyboard they told me to play with that. I told them I didn't want to. Then they threw it away when their son stoped playing with it. I threw a tantrum ... Read more

Not what I expected.
I have a 19 month girl and purchased this toy for her 1st birthday. She loves to push things around. However, this toy does not steer, so she won't push it. And it is too wide for her to really scoot around on. She has way more fun with the $8.00 stroller I bought for her baby doll. I would not purchase this toy again.

Multi-friendly
These parents of twins are happy with the hippo as a first birthday gift.Even though they were 11 weeks early (which makes them about 9 1/2 months size), they are trying to walk.The hippo does not get ahead of them while pushing in the walker set up.Other walkers we tried at friends' homes would roll too fast and they would fall forward.The gobble action works on carpet or hard floors.The wheels work well enough on carpet for my daughter to continue pushing when my son crawls on top.Any toy that can stand up to these two day after day is a good buy.

"IPPAUW" works WONDERS
** This gobble n' go hippo or my sons way of saying it, "IPPAUW" (This is Pronounced IP and then Ow (like what you say when you get hurt ;) )...is their favorite new toy. Our sons are just starting to stand up (8 months old) and they LOVE peek-a-blocks (we have the wagon, giraffe, hippo, dumptruck, circus set, incrediblock, and shape sorter! they LOVE them ALL). But this hippo is one of their (and my) favorites!
** They squeal when ever they play with it. But I dont really recomend it for wobbly babies, mine are but I have a little technique. My twins seemed very fustrated that they couldnt run and walk like every one else. So they hold onto the couch and then sort of push it alon (with me holding their waist) I think with this help that they are really improving.
** They even love to watch "IPPAUW" gobble the blocks, which I have to say he does surprizingly well, maybe I just got lucky with a good one! I also like that the inside of his mouth is very soft so I dont have to worry about curious hands getting "gobbled" and then hurt.
** What I really love about this is that its stable, (although it doesnt turn too well), yet as another reviewer said, having swivel wheels may just make it harder for a new walker to start taking those first steps. It will be a great and fun way for my babies to learn to walk. I can see no way that this toy could be harmful, it moves well on our carpet, and it doesnt move too fast on tile for a shakey toddler. Its a very stable ride-on too, but I would NOT suggest you ride it outside
** Even my 3 year olds LOVE "Mr. Hippo". They love to ride him all over the house because "Mr. Hippo" is one of the few riding toys allowed in the house. My 3 year olds also think its a lawnmower ever since they saw one at a friends house, and since we only have one shopping cart they use it for that too, and, its so great to see their little imaginations at work, they pretend that they are taking their pet hippo on a walk!All the neighborhood kids LOVE him, even my twins daycare cot one!
** This hippo also gobbles more than peek-a-blocks wich all my kids think is even MORE hilarious, he gobbles other blocks, balls, and whatevers in its path, my 3 year olds say that his tummy is always very full!
** Since we have DOZENS, and I mean dozens, of peek-a-blocks, its a great place to store them other than the toychest (where they always end up on the bottom).
** But what really surprized me was that this hippo excited my sons so much that after hearing us reapeat the word "hippo" over and over again, they said "IPPAUW"!. I was SO excited, (even though they still didnt say "mommy" lol). This is an amazing acomplishment being that they could only say daddy, yummy, and "nehmo" (elmo).
** Its great to see all 4 of my kids enjoying a toy, and I know this will be a key factor in walking because my friends 13 month old gave it a 'spin' and whenever she ended up in a corner, wall, or piece of furniture, she would just stand there and look at us and say " uh-oh"... so cute. (she couldnt walk alone yet)
** Bravo for the Gobble n' Go Hippo for teaching cause and effect, walking (eventually), riding and SPEACH!

Very Disappointed (Esp. for the $$$)
After a few months with this walker, I am heading out the door to buy the $20 Little Tikes walker at Toys R Us. The Leap Frog walker is USELESS. The wheels move & spin WAY too easily... the walker can easily get away from your child; plus, any tiny bump or nudge and the music either starts or resets. The "piano keys" are not interactive at all, and neither is the spinning wheel... so basically, there is NOTHING for your child to play with here.

Another Great Leap Frog Product !!!!!
This is a great walker. Our daughter is 9 months old and almost 22 lbs all the others walkers we tried out were flimsy and light weight , this one is super sturdy !! Just what she needed, the music and lights keep her occupied for quite awhile !! I read some of the other reviews of this product being too "fragile" I don't know were that is coming from because this is one of the sturdiest one I have ever seen !! Great product , a must have !!!

Good, solid toy
My 11 month old weighs 22lbs, so I really needed something that would be solid and strong as he tries to learn to walk. Some of the walkers we'd use at play group or at friends' houses were too light, and when he'd push on them, he'd go flying forward. So I really, really appreciate this toy. It remains stable as he stands up, and moves at just the right speed when he pushes it. The music on it is pleasant, it has an on/off switch with volume control, and it has different settings. It isn't really a toy forhim to just sit there and play with it for a long period of time, because like some of the reviewers wrote, it has to be moving to really get it going and do a lot. I still give it 5 stars anyway, because I really appreciate it as a walker. ... Read more

Great Gift
My daughter received this as a gift when she was 6 months old.She absolutely loves it.The colors and patterns are bright and cheery & I like the different textures of the birds.The handle is perfect for her little hands and she enjoys holding the birdhouse like a purse when she's not playing with it.(I love it because it doesn't make noise)

I love it
My baby is only 10 weeks old (it is recommended to 6+ months), but we decided to buy the house anyway because it was irresistible to me when we were at the store (too cute), and my babyloved the birds!. At this time he is not interested in playing put and peek, but he held the birds and play with them for a looong time
The house comes with one plastic wall , opposite to this wall there is a green door, which remains closed if not held to be open, and two little round windows in the other 2 walls. One side of the roof opens completely, and has a little velcro strap to be closed (this I know will be difficult to the little ones to be used, because the strap is tiny and not so accesible) but the roof remains closed if the house is hold by the handle.
4 little cute birds,colorful and easy to grab for little hands, and very chewables! I have to say that two birds come with fabric little feet and the other 2 with kind of shoe laces strings, and these two seemto be loosing strands that could be swallowed by babies. I think there will be a moment in were I have to cut the feet of those two fellas.
The 4 birds come with a rattle inside them, nothing fancy.
I would say I really like this toy and my baby is having fun with it.
Only complaint is that the house seems more wrinkledin the plastic wall than in the pictures, and we tried to pick out the less wrinkled one.

Lots of learning and playing options!
This is the best put in and take out toy! I (and my daughter) love that there is more than one way to take things in and out. At first my daughter loved pulling the birds through the hole in the roof, then she learned how to open the door, and keep it open ;) (this is a good one, the door flips closed if not held open this helps develop fine motor skills, I think.) And just recently she's learned to open the roof, which is a bit trickier. She likes to put the birds and ANYTHING else that will fit in it and then peek at it through the clear end. She carries it around all day filling and emptying it with anything and everything. I like that you can see through some sides and not others so some of the contents remain a surprise to little seekers. The 4 birds are very cute and full of many textures. They have a soft rattle which wouldn't disturb any one sitting near you in public (but I think different noises in each would be fun too, i.e. jingle, different rattles, etc.) Still, this has been well played with for the past 9 months and I expect it will still be out for many more.I think it is welll worth the bit higher price tag.Manhattan Toys are creative, cute, and fun! Kudos! ... Read more

A Big Hit With Our Baby!A Favorite of Mom's Too.
We got this toy about 6 wks ago when my youngest son first started to pull himself up on things and it as been a favorite ever since.I love seeing his face when he climbs up on it!There are two settings, music and ABC's, so there are a lot of different songs to enjoy.The objects on top are really cute - it's a sort of picnic theme with snacks around a big soup bowl that spins like a steering wheel - very fun.The two sound level settings are also perfect: the low is not too low and the high is not too high - it's just enough to adjust for different noise levels in the room.The legs snap on and off quickly and easily, so in a few seconds I can convert it from a sitting toy to a standing toy (great when he was standing with less stability - I could set it down on the floor when I couldn't sit there to 'spot' him in the standing position).Both me and my preschooler love to play with him on it!

great toy...worth the money
I bought this toy for my son when he was 8 months old. He plays with it every day! I love the numerous melodies it plays, because you don't get tired of hearing the same song over and over. He knows how to pull the levers, flip the page, and dances along when the music plays. I highly recommend this toy.

Good, but could definitely use some improvements
My daughter got this at 7 months, and loved it right from the beginning.She's 12 months now, and isn't QUITE as interested, but she definitely still plays with it.So overall I think it's a pretty good toy for a baby or toddler, but I do have a few problems with it.

First, it's very bulky.It takes up quite a bit of floor space, and can't really be easily stored anywhere other than the floor unless you remove the legs.

Then, if the legs ARE removed, you've got to find a place for them.It would be much better if the legs could be folded under.Or even if they could be stacked and stored together, but they can't.

Now, I know that other activity tables are just as bulky, but many of them are more versatile.Like, the top can be flipped over and there's a Lego building table or a writing surface underneath.This thing pretty much just has buttons and lights and noises, so once your baby bores of that, you've just got a noisy, bulky thing that's tough to store.

So, while this isn't bad, I DO think there are better activity tables out there. ... Read more

Not that impressed
I like the concept of storing the pieces in this toy and being able to build on top of a small table.I am not certain why the table plays music and has the spinning wheels.My daughter rarely plays with this toy and I would recommend the plain megablocks over this toy.

He loves it TOO much!
I bought this for my son's first birthday.He couldn't grasp the building concept, but loved the music and spinning wheels.So, for three months, he put on anything new he came into contact with (slippers, plastic containers, trucks, clothes, baby lotion, bottle, ANYTHING) on the spinning wheels and watched the item go around.It really kept him and us entertained, as we never knew what he would put on there next.We decided that this toy was well worth it, even if he never used the building toys with it.

At about 14 months he started to get interested in the building pieces.It was almost a little disappointing!This toy is the main toy he plays with every day.We all love it!

This toy has stood up to much abuse from my child.The legs were fine once my husband managed to get them in place (I couldn't do it).I also like that the pieces can go into the toy itself.

DS also likes to take the round pieces, roll them on the kitchen floor and chase after them.This has been a multi-purpose toy for him!LOL!

You don't have to put the batteries in it.
I bought this for my son for Xmas.He likes it a lot.But I didn't even put batteries in it till a few weeks ago and now I regret it.The little tunes get annoying and since he likes it so much, he pushes the button all the time.I like how you can store the pieces in the bottom but the legs don't stay on very well. ...

Cool but Ionly wanted the construction cars
What I meant by my title is that I already had Rusty and I just wanted the Construction Cars. The cars sway from side to side and they can survive a lot of damage. I was suprised at how durable these were. The sets are a lot of fun because you don't need any additional things to go with it for immediate fun. These toys are really good for a car trip to keep a child busy when they are bored. I would higly recommend getting this set but don't buy Rusty first.

Rusty is good
Rusty is great. i got him as a present for christmas one year he has 3 cars - rusty a dumper and a cement mixer you can use him with cranky or anything with a magnet. he is also in some episodes on a video.

Rusty & Construction Cars!!
The Thomas & Friends wooden railroad gives you Rusty and 2 Construction Cars. This set provides hours of fun for your children because they can use this set to recreate stories about Rusty and his construction fun. Its educational value shows children how man-made things are built and they will probably use this set with thier Lincoln Logs and other construction kits. This is also a very sturdy set, but sometimes the mixer's top will come off and will need a frequent fix-up! Other than that, it's a wonderful set and a great gift idea! ... Read more

Editorial Review

A realistically noisy pretend lawn mower with fun visual effects, this one is likely to get a good deal of use by toddlers who want to play grownup. The coolest part of this toy is the see-through plastic mulch compartment. It's full of tiny colored beads that dance around when the mower is in motion, giving the illusion of grass being mulched. An on/off key, gear switch, gas cap, and a loud popping noise add to the entertaining components. Made in typically durable Little Tikes fashion, this toy will stand up to many miles of lawn mowing. --Jane Snyder ... Read more

Favourite baby toy of both my kids
The Whoozit was given to my daughter as a gift and frankly before I had it, I'd have looked at the price and bought a cheaper toy.However it was on her favourite toys as a baby.In fact she played with it until she was 1 1/2 years old, which is a very long time for a baby toy. Now it's my son's favourite. He only has the use of one hand, but it's light enough that he can play with it.It has 7 striped legs with different shapes and textures, a plush red nose that squeaks with a mirror underneath and a terry cloth semi-circle mouth that you can hold onto.The back has a black and white bull's eye pattern which was fascinating to both children when they were under 2 months old.

A great baby toy.
I have bought each one of my kids this whoozit and I recently bought my daughter one she is 81/2 months old only I bought her the girl version called whoozit tizoo it is shaped like a heart and WOW she loves it. You can play peekaboo with it and she learns the different shapes and textures. I LOVE this toy and have for years. We also bought the small version for travel. This is a great toy for when they start to focus on things and they will fall in love with it and sleep/play with it for a long time. WHOOZIT is worth every penny...

my little girl loves it
My daughter got this as a gift when she was born from a friend that said this was her girls favorite toy.The backside of this toy is a black and white bullseye, my daughter at 2 months could not stop looking at it.Now, at three months, I have this hanging on the side of her play pen (with the help of some link-a-loos) and I prop her up next to it with her boppy and she reaches for the nose, smiles and babbles to it.It so funny to watch her with it.Next to her mobile, and my silly faces, it is the thing that she seems most interested in. ...

Editorial Review

An innovative toy for those who are way too young to look after real fish, this soft baby toy is a seven by seven-inch "fish bowl" with two transparent side panels containing real water. Small aquatic critters float around in these narrow walls of water. Even more interesting are the four three-inch stuffy toys (a fish, starfish, clam, and crab) that fit into the "bowl" between the watery side panels; the magnifying effect of the sides really makes these toys (and anything else in the bowl) look as if they are under water. The soft base is weighted and makes the bowl quite stable. --Richard Farr ... Read more

I Have No Words!
This toy left me in awe.It is probably the greatest invention ever including condoms!

My baby daughter loved this!
This was truly my daughter's favorite toy.We got it for her when she was about 7 months old, and she played with it daily until she was about 2 1/2.She loved the bright colors and sounds the different sea creatures made, enjoyed teething on the crab, and when she got a little older, loved the "put in, take out" things she could do with the fishbowl.Although it's a little pricey at $20, for us, this toy was definitely worth the money!

Great for infants!
My son (7 months) got this as a gift for Christmas...loves it!He loves the clam and the crab.I usually shake up the aquarium before I give it to him and his whole face lights up to see the bubbles and the little plastic sea creatures "swimming" furiously around! I would definitely recommend it for an infant. ... Read more

Editorial Review

This combination tricycle/stroller offers an excellent solution for ambivalent preschoolers who want to pedal one moment and be pushed along the next. As with all Radio Flyer rides, the Voyager is built to last, with a durable steel frame and heavy-duty treaded tires. The trike’s unique feature is its steering and pedal lock that allows kids to either pedal or just sit back and let parents do all the work. For parents’ ease of use, the Voyager has a comfortable stroller-style push bar that adjusts to four different positions, and a snap-on snack tray that holds two drinks and a set of keys. A removable nylon backpack with a waterproof interior is attached to the stroller with velcro, and provides just enough space to carry diaper bag necessities. Kids will love the ringing bell and bucket on the back of trike. Parents will love the adjustable seat and safe turning radius that helps to prevents the trike from tipping. --Cristina Vaamonde ...

Disappointed with Radio Flyer
My son received this as a gift from grandma.We thought, being that it was Radio Flyer, that meant quality.Boy, were we wrong.The steering was completely stripped after one use by my 2 year old.I took it back and am awaiting a new Kettler to be built.Hopefully, this one will be better.I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS BIKE!!!Very poor quality.
I also called Radio Flyer before returning the bike and they offered little assistance.However, at the store it seems to be a regular problem as all of the Radio Flyer trikes that they carried had stripped handle bars.

2 Year Old LOVES it!!
We got this trike for our son for his first birthday. He basically just sat on it for the first year and now that he is close to two, he loves it! We use it for walks through the neighborhood and he can now pedal. Although it is hard to steer, we've found it to be great. I highly recommend this for toddlers that are outgrowing their stroller days!

Broke in First Week and repeatedly after
This product is probably the single largest disappointment in our child's 3 years! In the very first week, the cable to the parent bar broke. So we got a replacement after much debate and protests by their customer support. Then, something went wrong with the handle bar and that does not turn the wheel anymore.

Try explaining these to a 2-3 year old!

I cannot believe that this company and this product are still in business with such a shoddy product

Love all the peek a blocks
I got this for my son for christmas when he was 14 months old . He has a lot of the peek a blocks toys. He really likes this truck. He likes putting the blocks in and dumping them. He will play with it for a while and he is picky about his toys. The dump part however does come off easy and I do wish that part was made better because it does get annoying haveing a 1 year old keep bringing it to you to put back together. And he gets mad at it cause he trys to put it back together and he cant. But I dont regret buying it. It was a good deal for the price.

My kids LOVE this
My 10 month old twins love this. We received it as a gift with an extra set of blocks. Yes, the blue and green part of the truck come off easily but that is part of the fun for my babies. They love taking it apart and I put it back together - no big deal. Even without those pieces on the truck they like to push it around. The music is not annoying at all and does have two settings. The wheels even hold blocks so when you put them in and they push the truck, the blocks make noise. Each block has something different inside but most of them have something that rattles. My babies love to play with the blocks as well, even without the truck. They love it when we stack them and the can push them all down. I definitely recommend this toy.

Cheap dump truck
It seemed like a good idea when I bought it but my 10 mo old easily ripped off the back of the truck in the first couple minutes out of the book.

I put it back together and it just comes off again within seconds.

It makes a good noisy truck not a dump truck.Its one saving grace is a volume switch for quiet, loud, and no sounds.

I don't like how the block holder for the driver's head doesn't hold it as well, but the wheels can easily pop in blocks for some extra rattling effect.

Editorial Review

This pink and purple girl's trike is equipped with everything a beginning rider would want or anticipate from Radio Flyer. Besides being for first-time riders--excitement enough--it comes with a list of confidence-inspiring features, besides having three large, sturdy wheels on a lightweight metal frame to prevent toppling. There's also a large bucket seat for maximum comfort; easy to reach pedals with foot brakes; easy-grip handle bars with wind-lovin' tassels; a rear-end basket for all kinds of toddler "stuff; and a kitschy finger bell kids will love to ring as they turn blind corners in the house. New riders will take pride in every pedal with a trike so well-equipped. --Diane Beall ... Read more

Dangerous Trike
We just got this trike at toysrus for our 24 month old daughter.It looked so adorable online and in the store, and looked fairly similar to the Kettler that my older daughter had.The price was a plus, as well.However, once we got it home and tried it out, it did not take long to figure out how dangerous this trike is.The first try at a turn and WHAM!the trike tipped and fell over.I thought this might have been a fluke and that perhaps my daughter was not sitting on the trike correctly, so I got her back on and away she went again.About the 3rd or 4th try at a turn and WHAM! Again, the trike tipped and fell over, and this time she got a slightly bloody nose from hitting the pavement hard, face first.Needless to say, I put the bike away immediately and I am returning it ASAP.This trike is definitely a hazard.

We have NEVER had a problem with our older daughter's Kettler Blossom trike.It has NEVER tipped.So, this incident took me by surprise and afterward, I compared the trikes. Although I am not an engineer, it seems fairly clear to me why the Kettler is infinitely more stable.First, the distance between the two back wheels on the Radio Flyer is only 11 inches.On the Kettler, the distance is 14 inches, a full 3 inches wider.Also, the distance front to back on the Kettler is longer.Finally, the wheels on the Kettler are bigger.

Another plus for the Kettler is that the frame is adjustable and as your child grows, you can lengthen the frame to accomodate longer legs.The Radio Flyer is not adjustable.This wasn't a concern for me, because I figured that when my younger daughter outgrew her trike, she would start riding my older daughter's adjustable Kettler, while my older daughter would get a regular bike.

In any event, you don't need to take just my word for it.Please, please, please take a look at the reviews for the Radio Flyer Fold-2-Go trike, which is the EXACT SAME TRIKE as this one, but it is red and blue instead of pink and purple.There are several reviewers of that trike that have had the same experience with tipping.This is an important safety issue and should be of great concern to all parents of young toddlers who are shopping for trikes.

Now, the Kettler is much more expensive, but they make the SAME tricycle as the Blossom, but with a different name and much less expensive.It's called the Kiddi-o Simba. I've just contaced Kettler and verified that it is basically the same trike with the same dimensions and safety features.(you can go to www.kiddi-o.com and call the toll free number yourself.)Plus, it's only 29.99 right now at Toysrus (the same price as this Radio Flyer.)Personally, I'm going to go out and exchange this one for the Simba immediately.Sure, the Radio Flyer is very cute, and the little basket, the bell and the fringe on the handles are adorable.But don't be taken in by how cute it is.It is unsafe.

love it!!
Very durable,folds up easily to go in the car or for storage (when they grow out of it)my daughter is 22 months old and she just loves her bike!!

Super cute and my 16 month old daughter loves it!
This is a super cute trike for beginners and on... Made by Radio Flyer which has been around forever and is great quality! My husband and I found it at ToysRUs and our 16 month old little girl sat right on it as if she had riden it a hundred times! Pink and Purple and really girly yet durable and well- made! We got it for her for Christmas and she just adores it!!! Great price too. Check it out in the store and see if your little one loves it as much as ours! Enjoy! :) ... Read more
