Activity Toy Reviews

After reading the other reviews on this tractor I can't understand why the one that we purchased for our grandson is unsafe. The trailor will not stay hooked to the tractor. One of my grandsons friends hit his head when the trailor came unhooked and tipped over. Wonder if we got a defective products or what.

I bought this tractor for my 3 years hold son. He is just in love with his tractor. He kisses the tractor and say " I love you green tractor".
The price with shipping charges was a bit expensive but my son is so happy that I forgot about the price.
This tractor seems also very safe. Nothing bad happen since we gave him. I'm not shure that I would recommend for children under 3. Because my son his 3 and he's bit short to join the pedal.

I bought this for my son when he was 3 years old. He is now 8 and handed it down to my younger son when he turned 2. After 5 years of rough and tough riding it is just now starting to break down. This has been an awesome toy. We also purchased the trailer and the boys have loved them both. I think it would have lasted even longer if my 8 year old would have stayed off of it after he had outgrown it. Anyway the only thing you need to keep in mind is that there is no brake so be careful on hills.

My 2yr old enjoyed this toy very much! she loved how Ariel spinned around. It has a lot more water holes then it appears to have. Ariel does not screw into any type of garden hose. Make sure you have a garden hose with a smaller nozzle.

This sprinkler is just right for toddlers, not too harsh but not too soft either.

I bought this for my 4 year old daughter and she loves it! Whenever we put it on in the front yard, kids come running, which include the middle school aged kids!! It keeps them busy till I have to call her inside. Great product for summer time fun!

The 'castle' pieces do not snap together securely enough - very flimsy. If my daughter (2) bumps the castle even slightly when manuevering in and around the table - it simply falls apart.

In addition, the plug no longer 'plugs' the hole - we have to use tape to retain the water in the table.

Nice idea - badly constructed.

I was reluctant to purchase this after reading some of the reviews, but finally gave in to my kids begging. We are 100% happy with this product. Perhaps they have improved on the manufacturing since earlier reviews, because I had no problems assembling it (at a campground with only a manual screwdriver). The castle has been staying together fine and no, it has not leaked for us at all. The kids love it and I love the cover and the water drain, which keeps everything nice and clean. Great summer outdoor toy!

This item was a gift for my third child, and I initially thought it would be a fun and unique activity for her. It turned out to be disappointing. First of all, the plastic smell was overpowering for the longest time. Second, whenever I put her near this toy, she lost interest in the fish (which are inside the "body" of the turtle) and seemed more interested in trying to grab the turtle's head. Finally, the inside became very moldy even after I emptied it and attempted to rinse it out. This toy looked like a good idea but ended up being useless. Find something better to entertain your baby!

My 9 month old daughter really loves this item. We use it in her playpen and on her high chair.

This is a great product -- I received one as a gift and then bought two more for other people. But I think it's worth mentioning that all three were yellow duck shaped (not green frog shaped, like the one shown in this product listing). Just thought purchasers might like to know. :)

I bought the above for my four-year-old granddaughter. She enjoys the LeapPad Book very much. It seems to stimulate her inquisitiveness, and she finds it to be lots of fun.

I ordered this for my 3 1/2 year old daughter. She has been trying to write her name before, but some letters give her trouble. I gave her this "book" and she loves it! We own about 10 First Leap Pad books and she plays with this one more than any (she even put down the Disney Princess one to play with this). She likes practicing tracing the dotted lines on the letters. She doesn't do most of the other games, but she enjoys tracing the letters. The music makes it more exciting than the preschool handwriting books I had purchased for her. She won't spend two minutes with those. It does seem that her "free" handwriting is getting better. She just received the L-Max for Christmas (we haven't opened it yet)and the Letters on the Loose game which I read was good for writing. I'm sure that with both of these, she will have writing down pat very soon.

We own over a dozen books for My First LeapPad. This particular book is my daughter's second favorite. In fact, we own two versions of it, one in English and the other in French.

My wife and I purchased this book because our daughter needed help with her fine motor skills, especially when it came to writing letters and numbers. She wasn't lagging or anything, but she made the mistakes all three-year-olds make when trying to write.

Through fun activities, this book taught her to write in strait lines as well as proper curved lines. She learned to correctly print both capital and small letters. She also learned to correctly write her numbers. We were pleasantly surprised by how much this book improved our daughter's fine motor skills and control over a pen.

Additionally, since her French lagged her English, the French version of this book taught her the alphabet in French and well as all her numbers in this language. Had she not already known these things in English, I imagine it would have taught her these as well.

This book is definitely one of My First LeapPad's best.
