These friction toy cars are a must for all toddlers and young children. The move a lot further than the amount they are pushed due to their internal mechanism. This means that the slightest push will see the cute cars travelling across your floor.
Made out of solid, sturdy, durable heavy plastic, these cars are colourful and they each feature a cute animal driver. You get 4 cars in the box and they can be pushed forwards or backwards and, when released, they continue moving.
These attractive, fun toy cars will keep toddlers entertained at home or in a nursery setting for hours. A really good toy.
This is a great set for children of all ages who enjoy modelling with playdough. The numerous cutting and shaping tools are made from plastic and not sharp enough to harm your child, but are strong and sturdy enough to withstand energetic play with the playdough.
This set comes with 10 small cutters. Some of these are excellent, however several of these shaped cutters have very small holes where it would be difficult for very young children to push out the playdough shape. Older children will not have this problem though.
This set is attractively coloured and well made. It should last a fair amount of time being played with. A great buy for parents and grandparents. It also comes with a book of illustrated instructions showing how to make many attractive and fun models to keep your child entertained for hours, days, weeks, months and possibly years.
This pack of party favours for children are perfect for mid-to-late-aged children. It features 30 pieces split between 2 items. I received a selection of snap or slap bands that, when you slap them onto your arm, magically twist around to create a strap of sorts. They are great fun to try out, even for the bigger kids that we all are!
These party bag fillers also contained a selection of silicone bracelets of Pop-Its. These are the ideal stress relief fidget toys as they work like reusable bubble wrap. The bracelets are quite long so not suitable for very small children. I use a Pop It fidget toy my self and have added a bracelet (pictured) for my own use. I use to it stop me from peeling the nails of my fingers and they work a treat. Perfect for neurodiverse children of all ages.
This pumpkin carving kit is extremely impressive. Although not the cheapest kit, it comes with many blades and utensils to scoop out and carve your own jack-o-lantern pumpkin for Halloween.
All tools are stainless steel and of a durable, sturdy construction with comfortable plastic handles. The will withstand some tough use and will last many years, making this set a good investment.
All the tools come in a handy, zipped storage wallet to keep them clean, dry and safe. This is always handy as you will never lose a blade or scoop. The set also includes 3 paper stencils to make good Halloween designs ready for the spooky season. The wallet is in an attractive orange and black design, mimicking the pumpkin it will be used for. Overall, a great purchase.
This set of children’s hoops does exactly what it says on the tin – low-cost, plastic rings that children (and adults if they want to!) can use to play ring toss and other games.
The set comes with 24 rings all in varying sizes so there is a great choice of sizes to make games easier or more challenging. The colours are bright, vivid and appealing.
The plastic is substantially thick on these hoops so I believe they will wear well and be very durable. The perfect toys to make up your own games with and have fun.
I received this Talking flash card set, that boasts 224 words, so that my wife could use it with any English as an Additional Language children in the nursery where she works as a learning aid.
The reader, featuring a cute cat design, is very appealing and a good size and weight for little hands. It comes with lots of cards featuring 224 words as advertised. We chose this version as it specifically mentioned that it was designed for British English. It contains words for animals, including the sounds they make, objects, foods and drinks and many other categories.
On the whole, this card set works very well and does what it describes. When you insert a card, the reader says the word aloud, teaching the child using it what the picture is named. The reason I have given it such a poor rating is because, as specifically described as a British English set, some words are pronounced strangely and many cards are American English not British. For example: eggplant instead of aubergine, agitator truck instead of cement mixer, backhoe instead of digger and subway instead of underground or tube. This aside, the reader works as it should and is still a valuable tool, just be mindful if you are British that a few words don’t translate.
