Baby Reviews

This was great for the first three months. We had a winter baby and this was great for the cold weather, unlike a blanket, it will not fall off. After about three months, the baby will start to outgrow as their feet will begin to hit the edge. Since it zippers and the bottom and top separate, this would also be good for additional cozy lining for any young baby. Good buy!

I bought this 2 years ago when I had my first daughter. I used it in her stroller on cool days and could quickly install it on the jogger when going for a run at the beach (where it's usually windy and cooler during the fall). It's very easy to switch from/to any stroller (less than 1 minute). When we visited relatives in Canada at Xmas, I installed the bundleMe on the infant car seat and it kept her warm during our trek from the airport to the parking spot. In San Diego one fall day, when she went down a slide at the park that was still wet, she ended up wearing only a diaper but the BundleMe kept her warm as we walked back home. Never had to worry about losing a blanket on the road, or having enough blankets to keep baby warm, or whether her feet were sticking out of the blankets, lost a shoe/sock, etc. I am now using the same bundle me with my second child. I'd recommend it to anyone who spends lots of time outdoor taking walks, etc.

My son was born in February and I actually considered taking this product back because I didn't think it would be usueful. After using this product a few times I decided I was wrong. I {{LOVE}} this product. It fit perfectly in my infant carrier. Dressing my newborn son was not a process he enjoyed let alone being put into the carrier. With the Bundle Me I didn't have to struggle putting my baby in any coats or buntings then struggle with the bulkiness to get him into the carrier in order to take him out into the cold. An additional bonus I found was that if I needed to take him indoors but keep him in the carrier I didn't need to worry about him overheating. I just had to unzip the top blanket and pull it back. It's like a little sleeping bag. Unfortunately, I think my son will be too big for his current carrier when winter befalls us again. I think we will be moving on to a carseat instead of a carrier at that point so the Bundle Me will be less useful. Even if I just use the seat portion and keep the blanket top for extra cold days it will workout great. I already consider it well worth the money.

Baby loves this toy bar. It can be attached to a infant car seat handle or onto crib railing. manually, the lady bug moves from side to side, caterpillar twists, and butterfly's wing flaps. Each 'bug' has something different to say- 'Peakaboo! I see you!' songs play when you push the lady bug button- 'I was goin' to the park one dayyyy!'

I ordered this wagon for my granddughter's birthday, it showed up disguised as a skateboard ramp! She's only 1 year old, nice going aahhhggg.

This is a nice wagon but we have had the same trouble as others - the wood sides just don't hold up. They fall out all the time and it just gets aggravating. Wish I would have thought about an all-terrain wagon - that certainly would have lasted longer and I wouldn't be so aggravated. The assembly was okay, but I just think for the money, you could get something that was a little nicer and would hold up better. I'm thinking about replacing ours with something more sturdier. Our little one is quite rambunctious with things and this wagon really has trouble keeping up with our little one.

I bought this wagon for my son when he turned 2 yrs old. My son is 3 1/2 now and the wagon is still in great shape! We keep it in his room and he uses it to store all of his toys during the cold months. When it's nice outside, I take him out in the wagon and he has a ball. I don't see any signs of chipping and the wooden sides are still sturdy. I highly recommend the Radio Flyer Trav-ler Wagon!

My son enjoys watching these roll around and seeing the animals swish from side to side. They are a great addition to the Roll-a-Rounds Jungle Friends Treehouse.

Our daughter likes to shake the Hippo ball because of the beads in it. It goes great with the Drop N Roar Dinosaur. We will probably buy the other ball sets and accessories too.

We loved this sheep until the volume control knob came off in our 10 month old daughter's mouth, posing a serious choking hazard as it is an irregularly shaped object about the size of a gumball. Buyer beware.

6/9/06 Amendment: Upon hearing about our scare, the Cloud B company immediately stopped all production of the Sleep Sheep, and has assured us that they have redesigned the sound box in all new sleep sheep so that the volume control knob will not be able to come off.

The Sleep Sheep has been a lifesaver. My son is 6 months old and has just started teething. We can always get him to goto sleep whenever we turn on his little Sleep Sheep, no fusses, no hassles. It fastens securely to his crib and is durable enough to travel with us. I love it.

Sleep Sheep is a savior! My 8 month old daughter finally fell asleep on her own listening to the sound of the ocean. That's her favorite one. She sleeps so much longer than she used to before. I highly recommed it!

The only sound this dog makes is an anemic arf while the wheels are turning. It does not bark like a dog or bark the B-I-N-G-O song like 'Sing Along Lil' Snoopy'. I was hoping to get another Sing Along dog so my twins wouldn't fight over our one, but I was disappointed.

My son's puppy has spots on it so its much cuter than this plain one but overall its a really cute pull toy. It barks out B-I-N-G-O and also does regular barking without being too annoying. A decent price and well constructed without too much tipping over when pulled.

Our son received this toy for his first birthday. It has a lot of good features--teaches colors, numbers, farm animals and their sounds, several songs. But the music is AWFUL--the singer is off-key on every single song (either that, or they did a bad job of matching up the music to his voice). As someone who appreciates music, I cannot tolerate listening to this, especially since there are far better toys out there. Since our son already has 2 LeapFrog toys which teach the same concepts as this toy (the Learning Table, which has much better quality music, and the Fridge Farm), we will be exchanging the Vtech Discovery Nursery Farm for a different toy.

My husband and I bought this for our son for Christmas who was 8 months old at the time. We had never bought a Vtech toy before, but for Christmas we bought 3. Of the 3, 2 were broken within 2 months after Christmas. The first one broke 2 WEEKS after Christmas. I was PO'd because this is not a cheap toy. My son did nothing to break the toy. He has never broken a toy and he has dozens of Fisher Price toys and some Leapfrog. The page in the center that changes the modes stopped worked all of a sudden out of the blue. We tried exchanging it at Toys R' Us 4 times, and they never got any back in stock. I tried e-mailing Vtech customer service and my e-mail was returned saying the e-mail doesn't exist?!

Aside from all that, the issue with babies' hands and fingers getting wedged under the pig is ridiculous. It shouldn't have passed the safety checks. I wish I had realized this when I bought it, though I will admit my son never tried to stick his fingers in there. He only tapped the pig from the front to make it swing.

The voice isn't THAT bad. It didn't bother me at all, but that is because I expect the house to be full of noise with a toddler around. On a final note, my son did enjoy this toy very much for a month or two. Now, 4 months later, he doesn't even bother to look at it or kicks it away if I give it to him.

Save your money!!!

Before I start my review, I noticed that the latest version of this toy apparently differs slightly visually than the one pictured here on Amazon. My guess is that there may be two versions of this toy out, or that the one I purchased is the most recent incarnation. My review is for this current version as of March 2006. In short, this is an EXCELLENT toy for a developing infant, because it provides a good panoply of learning sound effects and songs to go along with blinking lights, and a functional keyboard to learn new music skills on. As the advertising for this toy states, the 'Discovery Nursery Farm' has many developmental benefit functions, such as developing motor skills, visual awareness, language development, and imaginative play thru realistic animal sounds and nursery rhymes that infants love to hear. And even though our infant is only 7 months old (the box it came in says it is for infants "9+ months"), she LOVES this toy, as is evidenced by her many smiles, giggles, 'razzing', and overall attention she pays to it. And we have thankfully had no issues with fingers getting stuck, or other safety issues. Perhaps the newer version has effectively addressed this previous safety issue that some reviewers brought up here. In addition, ergonomically, this is a GREAT toy for an infant who loves to spend a lot of time on his/her tummy. The toy is on their level physically, and they can play with it easily while lying down as well as sitting up, with all the buttons and keys well within their reach. And on the lighter subject of the singer being a wee bit 'off key', and having a strange voice (as some reviewers have mentioned), this is really a 'non-issue'. In fact, his interesting voice sounds kind of appropriately goofy and perfectly fit for a fun child's toy. Then again, compared to hearing the English language butchered and 'raped' so many times ever since moving to the state of Ohio 10 years ago, his voice is excellent! GREAT JOB 'VTech'!!!

I bought this rocking horse after seeing it at a friends house. It was purchased for my nephew's first birthday--when it first started to sing he was a little nervous but once on it he would not get off. All laughs and giggles. Well worth it!! Not hard to put together but no instructions.

My 13-month old son loves this rocking horse. It sings and its mouth moves when it sings. It's very cute. Well worth the price.

My thoughts on the horse are that is provides no real educational value. However, it does improve balance and coordination. My (2 yr old) daughter's balance and understanding of holding on to an object to help that balance has increased since we got the horse. It also provides great entertainment as she will sit on it for quite a while and "gallop". I will add that she was scared of it until we turned off the sound - it sings a couple of songs and whinnies every so often out of the blue. She wouldn't touch it until the horse was silent for a week. I personally don't mind that it is silent since we have enough noisy toys already!
Overall, it was a good purchase.
