Day 1: kids receive the doll, are delighted and play with it morning through evening (cute for sure). Day 2: doll only speaks but can't move. Replace 4 batteries (2 in each leg) and it works all rights Day 3: doll goes mum, replace 2 batteries at the back
Day 6: cycle 6 batteries again Day 8: order a set of rechargeable batteries on ebay!
Personally, I dont see any educational value from the toy, its cute though but I definitely dislike the fact that it is such a power hog.

Interactive Doll Makes Nurturing Fun for Your Little "Mommy" This cheerful toddler comes dressed in a pair of brightly patterned pajamas. She has positionable arms, friendly eyes, and a hairdo that curls into ringlets at the ends. The doll comes with her own accessories, including a bottle, blanket, pacifier, and a puppy with rolling wheels and a leash for easy walking.
The doll is easily removed from the box by turning and removing two simple key locks from the back, then unfastening the clear rubber bands from the doll's wrists. The bottle, pacifier, and blanket are also fastened by rubber bands. Parents may need to use scissors to cut the flexible wire attaching the puppet to box. To get playtime started, power up the doll with 6 "AA"/LR6 alkaline batteries (not included) -- two in the back (underneath the pajamas) along with two in each foot. A small Phillips head screwdriver is required to open the battery doors.
Once the batteries are installed, simply flip the power switch on her back, which is located just above the battery door, and playtime can begin. The doll's special "magic-touch" hands respond to touch, so your child only needs to touch a finger to get the doll talking and giggling. A button on her tummy can also be pressed to get her started. She has a set of more than 60 randomized songs, sounds, and phrases that include "Bottle, mama?" "Tickle me!" and "Let's play peek-a-boo!"
She Walks, Talks, Giggles, and Plays The Walk&Giggle doll can stand up and walk all by herself. When placed in a sitting position on a flat surface, this doll can get herself to a standing position, then begin walking. If she falls down, she can get up on her own. If she is lying flat and facing down, the doll will automatically get up without assistance -- if she is lying flat and facing up, she cannot get up and will ask for help by saying, "Help me up, mama!"
The Walk&Giggle doll keeps her "mommy" busy. Tickle her and she wiggles and giggles. When she requests her bottle, it's time to give her a sip from her favorite bottle with its dancing teddy bear design. She also keeps on-the-go by walking her colorful pooch, who is equipped with wheels and a leash for an easy stroll. When she asks to play Peek-a-Boo, place her hands in the corner pockets of the included blanket, then touch both hands simultaneously -- she will know it's Peek-a-Boo time and bring the blanket up to her eyes.
Pretend-and-Play Design Helps Teach Language and Social Skills The interactive design of the Walk&Giggle doll not only entertains children, it also helps develop their language and social skills. The doll's repertoire of phrases help children to practice speech while at play, so the experience is both entertaining and educational. And the practice of helping the doll -- from feeding her to lending a hand when she falls down -- encourages nurturing behavior in a child, helping lead to generosity and friendliness in social environments such as classrooms and play groups.
The doll's realistic sounds and random, interactive phrases make an excellent stimulation for role-playing. However, children may have some difficulty at first understanding some of the doll's phrases. But once you and your child become accustomed to her speech patterns, recognition should not be a problem.

(you gotta be kidding) 『I bought this game for my 7 year old niece and we had a blast with it. Not only was it a hoot just asking each other the questions, but it was good for her to rationalize her answers, therefore I thought it was a very educational game and very entertaining. She and I both loved it.』
(Limited fun, but a nice add to your family game collection) 『I bought this for my nine year old son, because he's always asking us "Woulda Rather" this or that. So I thought he would enjoy exploring the different scenarios. It was fun the first couple times we played, but the game board is made in such a way that the games are very short, (like 10 minutes or so). So we found ourselves starting over several times. The premise of the game is pretty well thought out, it makes young people think and offers a lot of variety. Its not boring,that's for sure, and would be great for a child with ADD, because you are not roped into doing anything for long period of time. The questions do get repetitive after a couple games though. The chili pepper ads great fun to the game, playing music and amusing noises. Would recomend for younger children, 9 and under with short attention span.』
(Fun for the young) 『This is a cute game and my seven year old loved it. I would say the cut off is probably 12 years old, anything above that the game becomes boring quickly. The younger kids had a great time with it though.』
(I wouldn't rather) 『I bought this for grandkids, but after a few questions, realized they were having more fun with the off-color questions. I was so embarrassed I couldn't read several of the cards. Not a good, wholesome family game!!!!』 『You Gotta Be Kidding! gets kids and grown-ups thinking, laughing, reasoning, and having a blast making goofy decisions and completing the wild Would You Rather Challenges. Best of all, kids have fun speaking up for a change, instead of always saying "I don't know". Watch imagination rule and confidence build as kids get comfortable standing up for their choice while laughing the whole time. Would You Rather eat a bucket of apple stems or eat 20 banana peels' Gross, huh' But you cannot say "neither" when playing this game. Even though nobody would be dumb enough to eat that stuff, each player still has to choose. So make your best choice and then speak up and tell everyone why. To win, you must correctly guess what the others will say and successfully complete your even more outrageous challenges as you try to move forward to the Finish Line.』

Usually ships in 24 hours Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (Great for crafty kids) 『My daughter loves crafts, and she's finally old enough to start learning how to sew. This kit is adorable, and my daughter is excited making her own stuffed animals. The embroidery floss holds easily in the needle's eye, but it is TOUGH to thread the needle. I suppose I could just give her a bigger needle, but then the thread wouldn't hold as snugly. Everything is precut, even the decorative trim pieces. It's a fun way to create some satisfying projects she can proudly display.』
(THE BEST BEGINNERS SEWING KIT I'VE FOUND!) 『I searched a long time to find a quality beginners sewing kit for my 6 year old granddaughter and finally found this one. I am happy to have purchased Alex Toys "My First Sewing Kit", as it contains EVERYTHING needed to create projects, start to finish, giving a child confidence to go the next step in a knowledge and gift she will take with her the rest of her life--sewing! Included are: Patterns for small animals, stuffing, colorful embroidery thread, needles, pins, pin cushion, buttons, measuring tape and scissors (though I read reviews about them being the only poor-quality item, so I bought the Metro 5-pc scissor pkg through Amazon--Excellent!). All of these sewing tools are housed in a sturdy, colorful and roomy case with a handle, keeping all items and projects organized in one spot.
Upon opening this sewing kit at her birthday party, my granddaughter forgot everything else and wanted to start a sewing project! I'd say this is my proof of recommendation of this terrific product!』
(Fun projects, Nice fabric, Terrible scissors) 『This is a nice introduction to sewing for about ages 5 to 9. The project ideas are pretty cute and the fabric and trims are colorful, so most kids will be excited about making the stuffed animals and the bag, at least. (We didn't have a book of the correct size for the book cover project, but used the fabric for something else.) The projects aren't too complicated for beginning sewers but are neat enough to interest a (slightly) more experienced young seamstresses. My one criticism is that the scissors are just toys, and do not cut at all, and the "thimble" is also pretty useless if your child really needs to push a stitch through.』
(Great beginner sewing kit!) 『My 6 yr old daughter got this from Santa this year. She loves it! It comes in a cute little suitcase. There are lots of accessories. We have almost finished the elephant. We just need to sew on the ears. Great for kids that are not ready for the sewing maching yet. I think she sews better by hand than I do!』
(Give a toy that teaches a survival skill! (Beautifully!)) 『Sewing is so much more than a delightful skill to have, and it's way much more than a hobby to pass the time. Teach your child to sew, and down the road you have also educated and clothed a family, and saved them untold amounts of money as time goes by.
This wonderful kit supplies your child with all that she/he needs to begin a sewing project immediately. There are lots of very easy projects, pre-cut patterns and a carrying case. You can start sewing right away!! It includes eight colors of embroidery floss, materials to make a notebook cover , materials to create little animals (and stuffing), trims, pins, pin cushion, and lots more.
Once you open the box, you are prepared to get going without another trip to the store, and with time, your child can become an excellent crafts person with a needle. Use your imagination and just picture the custom-made wardrobe to come!』 『A case full of everything you need to learn how to sew and create fantastic art and fashions. This sewing set inculdes precut patterns for quick and easy projects, eight colors of embroidery floss, stuffing fabric, ric-rac, needles, scissors, a measuring tape, straight pins, thimble, pin cushion, buttons, and a pom-pom strip.』

Melissa and Doug
Usually ships in 24 hours Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (Let's Give It Four.) 『Our boy just had his first birthday party and one of the gifts he received was a Melissa and Doug Shape Sorting Cube. The manufacturer says it's for children of 2 and up, so I guess the gift is a bit ahead of the game. That's OK. Right now, our boy uses the little blocks for bashing on things and for chewing on. The top also gets a certain amount of chewing around the corners.
In any case, it's a nice wooden toy, in contrast to many of his other plastic toys and almost all seem to be Made in China. I cringe at the brightly painted pieces and hope that the paint is safe. So many things from China turn out to be tainted, these days. I guess this Shape Sorting Cube is educational in that it can be used to learn shapes and colors and help in counting and reasoning skills. Well, so be it. Will the kid enjoy it as a toy? Who Knows? We'll just have to wait beyond the bashing and chewing stages. Would I have enjoyed it and found it a good learning experience? Probably marginal, at best. So how shall I rate it? I'll give it four stars. My feeling is three, but it hasn't been tested by the boy as yet and my hopes are he would rate it a five.

(Flaking Paint!) 『I ordered this shape sorter for two reasons. There are many more shapes than in most of the others that I've looked at, and I like wooden toys. My grandson enjoyed playing with the shapes; however, after having this toy for a few months, the paint began to flake off. His parents noticed the flakes of paint on his face and threw the toy away. I am concerned about the safety of such a toy!』
(Good for older children) 『I thought my twins would love this shape sorter because they love their plastic one. Since it has so many shapes I thought it would be a lot more useful than the plastic one that only has four. Here's a tip, make sure your chid is older than 3 before using this toy. Younger ones want to put the pieces and the lid in their mouth. My daughter got a splinter in her gums from chewing on the lid. Also, it's really hard for toddlers. The shapes are poorly cut so it's not obvious that a parallelogram hole should fit the awkward looking chunk that is supposed to be a 3D parallelogram.』
(Educational but design is questionable.) 『I disagree with some of the reports. It isn't hard to get the other shapes in the hole when it starts to fill up....gravity...the blocks fall to the bottom. However, the lid stayed on ours it was a good fit but the lid eventually broke. Maybe it was too tight and that is why it broke instead of being too loose. I have tried other shape sorters by other manufacturers since and my son enjoys this one the best. The others are built pretty poorly or they are too easy for him. No win situation. For $10-15, I guess it is worth it.』
(Great Wooden toy for a 18-36 months old!) 『We bought this product, even though he had another plastic sorter. He prefered this one instantly! It feels great on the hands and it's lots of fun, because it comes with so many shapes.. I think they enjoy it more when they are closer to 24 months..because some shapes are difficult. The top part broke, but my son was using it as a stool! lol It's very durable.. Great toy!』 『Ages 2&up. This classic, wooden sorting cube is sure to delight any toddler. Features 16 large, colored shapes for little hands and a removable lid. Measures approximately 5½ square.』

(One of our kids' favorites!) 『This product rates high with me. It has been one of the kids' favorite toys. We've had it since my daughter was 3, and she's now 5. Her 2 year sister is now getting into it too. It has fun sounds, credit card slot, receipt pad and large drawer to hold money. We've never had a problem with is durability - its been great quality.』
(Great Purchase) 『The price for this cash register was more than I wanted to pay but my daughter really wanted a cash register for her birthday and I didn't have time to shop around. This has been a great purchase. The quality is really good. It's nice and sturdy and the money that comes with the register is realistic, making it easier to teach children the difference between the denominations. So often toy money is so unrealistic you can't use it for teaching purposes. My daughter plays with this almost everyday and has great fun imagining that she is a cashier. I would definitely re-purchase this particular cash register if I needed to buy one as a gift. A nice thing for parents is that everything it comes with stores right in the money drawer so there is not a mess laying around and it's easy to keep everything together.』
(Simple, Silly, Used Frequently) 『We bought this for our daughter for Christmas. She is 11 and she uses it a lot. I thought it would go the way of most gifts, out of the box and into the closet, or the floor, or under the bed, never to be touched again except to move it to some other hiding place. I would have to say that the reception of this toy will be greeted with enthusiasm equal the the imagination of the recipient, in the case of our daughter, this was an A-list gift.』

The chiming cash register features a built-in solar calculator as its keypad, thus allowing kids to act as bankers, shopkeepers, and accountants all at once. A large cash drawer holds life-sized bills in four denominations (1, 5, 10, and 20), and four coin holders make room for embossed plastic pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters. There is even a credit card slot that dings when you correctly slide the faux VISA card through it. A suggested-activities booklet is included.

It is a fun way to have your child practice reading, measuring, mixing and understanding a few science concepts. In my opinion anything that gets them thinking (especially something fun that smells good!) is a good thing. Your little girl will enjoy this kit!』
(SORT OF FUNNY, SORT OF DISGUSTING) 『First of all, I found that it was a pretty expensive product. I had never seen it anywhere (probably it is not sold abroad). Products seemed pretty disgusting: some stinky mud, cheap fragrances, very cheap plastic bottles that I don't think will preserve properly the cosmetics you make with the kit... I was very disappointed as I was emptied the box. I knew I wanted to throw it all right away but I made some mixtures with the ingredients before it just for fun. Obviously, I did not dare to put that on my face as it was so cheap. The product comes with a brochure with some beauty tricks and recipes to make that require you to use more ingredients that the ones coming in the box. Very cheap and even messy for girls (mind they will be playing with oils and stuff that can be hard to clean). Not to mention it is not educational at all... Forget about anything on Science in this product.』
(Nice but expensive for what it is) 『I bought this kit for my 7yo, and she and her 4yo sister enjoyed making soap&bath salts (we still haven't made the bath fizzes). It's a fun activity for a mom to do with her girls. That said, the kit of mostly valuable for the recipes. Most of the items in the kit (oatmeal, baking soda, citric acid, sea salt, rose petals) I already had at home, and the others (fragrances, 1 glycerin soap) I could buy at Michael's for far less money. But I'm not sorry I bought it as a first kit.』
(Great Science for the hesitant Scientist) 『My niece has very little interest in science, but as scientists, it is something my husband and I try to encourage. This did exactly what we were hoping. It showed her that science is interesting. At first she had no interest in the kit, but after making her first spa fizz ball, she became very interested in how the spa things were made and loved using her creations.』
(Fun, but needs more stuff) 『This is a good concept, but it seems like more should be included in the kit. You can make a facial and some bath fizzy things...but not a whole lot else. However, the experiments it did come with worked.』 『
Whip your bath into a frothy fizzing sea of color and fragrance. Make colorful, fragrant bath gels, bath fizzers, spa lotion, bath balm, a face mask, and shampoo. Mix colors and fragrances to creat your own product line with secret and exclusive mixtures. Explore the science of gels, fragrance and fizzers.
Mixing fragrances in the bathtub is a delight for both girls and boys. It’s one of the best ways to introduce them to the fun of science. Kids will spend hours in the tub with this kit mixing ingredients to make foaming frothing baths and smelling potions and conducting science experiments to see how scents affect our alertness, moods and memories. Comparing the responses of siblings, parents and friends makes this a shared adventure the entire family will enjoy
The best way to get girls interested in science (We all know research indicates girls become less interested in math and science at puberty) is to engage them in activities they are interested in. So what could be better than SPA SCIENCE? Girls relax and experiment with many fragrances in their bath and it is real chemistry. They perform experiments with unbreakable, safe test tubes and learn the secret behind the chemical reaction of foaming and frothing baths.
Shhhh…! Don’t tell boys this is for girls since they will really want this kit too! It’s perfect for science fairs, birthday parties and family fun. It will help both girls and boys to think like a scientist in the tub!

An Adorable Classic, Reinvented The renowned dollmaker Madame Alexander based this 18-inch cloth doll on the original Strawberry Shortcake character, who first appeared in the 1980s. Since then, Strawberry Shortcake has reappeared in updated iterations, but this Madame Alexander doll retains the original pink, strawberry-topped hat, the red dress with its white apron, and most notably, the signature green-and-white striped tights.
Strawberry Shortcake's classic looks will score some nostalgia points with today's generation of moms, but it's the ragdoll design that makes this Madame Alexander version a timeless doll. This simple Strawberry Shortcake doll offers a well-crafted, heirloom-quality alternative to today's plastic, battery-powered toys, with her embroidered features, yarn hair, soft body, and authentic clothing. Her modern update is that she is made with all-new synthetic cloth materials, and can be surface cleaned.
A Soft, Cuddly Companion Nostalgia and craftsmanship aside, this doll has all the makings of a favorite for little children. Our preschool-age toy tester loves the doll's soft, oversized huggability, and she makes a great pillow during quiet time. The doll also scored points for her removable dress and removable white knickers, although the hat, tights, and shoes are not removable.

The squirt hole is at the top and the plastic is rather firm, so that feature is not really very useful, especially for small children. Maybe they're better on dry land.
