The early developmental milestones are so important and, as a parent, so exciting to watch. The transitions from sitting to standing to walking all seem to happen so fast. It is also a time when little ones take some nasty falls. The Vtech Sit To Stand Learning Walker is great toy to help your child with standing and walking, and at the same time add in a little safety.

The Sit to Stand Learning Walker can be with your child all through these developmental milestones. The play panel can detach, so while your child is just learning to sit, you can detach the play panel and it’s a great toy for the floor. As your child begins to stand and walk the Sit to Stand Learning Walker will continue to entertain and help your child.

Some walkers can go way to fast and get away from your child. The Sit to Stand Learning Walker is perfect though because it won’t go to fast. It stays right with your child and even transitions easily between carpet and hard floors.

In our house we have had two of these with our kids. They are great and I highly recommend the Sit to Stand Learning Walker. Plus I love that the play panel detaches, that way you can take it with you in the car. The play panel has so many things going on that kids really seem to love. It has piano keys that play music, spinning rollers, shape sorters, light up buttons, telephone handset, spinning gears, and an open/close barn door. It has an educational mode and a music mode. So this really is several toys in one. Plus the low Amazon price, this is a great deal. Perfect for your child or as a great gift. Check it out!… Read the rest

No child’s toy chest would be complete without a Say Please Tea Set. Toy tea sets have been around forever, but this a much improved tea set specifically geared toward babies and toddlers.

The Say Please Tea Set is full of musical surprises that every baby loves. The musical fun starts when you open the tea pot lid and hear a greeting and different sounds. Pressing the tea bag will get more sounds and a sing-along song.

The Say Please Tea Set helps little ones in developing their social skills. The sing-along songs teach things about sharing and manners. It has 3 tea time treats in the shape of a circle, square, and triangle, fitting perfectly on the matching sections of the serving plate to encourage problem-solving play and shape sorting. There are 3 play modes: imagination, music, and learning. It has 3 “teethable” cookies, 2 tea cups, and has 3 songs built in.

To help your little one begin to associate words with actions you can try talking as you play. You can say things like, “Can you open the lid?” or “I am pouring tea into the cup”. Another option is to count the treats as you place them on the serving tray. You can also just step back and let your little one have at it. You might also invite some dolls to join you in the fun.

Fisher Price always does such a great job at creating toys that are fun and also help kids develop physically, verbally, and mentally. Your child will love the Say Please Tea Set and it’s also a great gift idea.… Read the rest

If you’ve got a little rock star in your house then you need this toy. Any kid who loves to sing and pretend to be a rock star will love this.

It’s basically a microphone and an effects mixer, but it is specifically designed to work with the most popular songs. It comes preloaded with 2 songs, but you can also add your own. Any song will work, but in order to be able to fully utilize all the effects then you need the songs that are on their list of songs. Don’t worry if that sounds limiting. There are new songs added all the time and if you want a specific song that they don’t have then they have a request form on their site and you can request any song.

In order to add your own songs you have to go to their website and download a free app. They have an app for Windows or Mac computers. It’s really simple to do. So when you go to look up what songs are fully functional with the system, if you already own the song, then you just use the app to put the song onto your WowWee Paper Jamz Pro Mic.

It has an Auto Mode which will automatically adjust the effects while you are singing so that you can sound just like the original song. It also has some really cool voice effects like Perfect Pitch, Chorus – which adds depth to your voice, Auto Vibrato, Melody Match – which tunes your voice so that you are always singing a perfect melody for that song, and Auto Harmony – so you can make the song sound like an amazing duet.

If your little rock star is anything like mine, then you will have get to attend many … Read the rest

Finally someone is helping us keep our iPhone’s and iPod’s safe from our sticky-fingered, drooling, adorable children. Thank you Fisher Price! This is one of the best products since sliced bread.  I’ve been looking forward to the Laugh and Learn Apptivity Case Review for a long time.  Let’s check it out.

With all the kid friendly apps on the iPhone and iPod they are a great way for kids to entertain themselves, but the problem is… our kids are entertaining themselves with our iPhone, that thing is expensive. It’s not normally a gadget you would just hand to your 2 year old and say, “Here you go, have fun”.

Well, thanks to Fisher Price, now you can. The Laugh and Learn Apptivity Case is the perfect way to allow your kids to enjoy all those fun apps, but still keep your phone safe. All you do is put your Apple gadget into the case and twist to lock it in. The Laugh and Learn Apptivity Case has large handles for easy gripping, teething rings, and even a mirror on the back. One of the features I love the most is that the “Home” button is covered up. It gets really frustrating when your kids keep accidentally hitting the home button and taken out of the app.

It’s inexpensive, so you just can’t go wrong with the Laugh and Learn Apptivity Case. Much better than having to replace your Apple device because it got dropped or drooled on to much.

I know lots of us parents have been waiting for something like this for a long time. For those parents who never knew their iPhone or iPod could be a great distraction for their child, well head on over to the app store and get those kid apps now. Fisher Price … Read the rest
