Hulk Hands: Will turn your child into the Incredible Hulk.

Sat, 10 Apr 2004 03:15:16 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author brenda5008 - My five year old loves The Hulk. I figure it could be worse. The con of his passion for The Hulk is that his toys are not so easy to find in our town. Green Hulk pudding is easily found, but Hulk toys are few and far between. When Ryan first spotted Hulk...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author brenda5008 - Why did I purchase this? My one year old loves Backpack. She loves the song he sings, and so we searched high and low for a backpack that sang the words. We finally found him on Ebay, and after shipping, paid a total of 25.75. Whoa. How would I...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author brenda5008 - I bought this toy for my little cousin, and when she out grew it, my daughter received it back from her. The reason I purchased it for my cousin is because it is different from many toys in one important way: It requires very little pressure to...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author brenda5008 - I purchased the Talking Cell Phone for my one year old daughter. It caught my eye because, of course, babies love phones! Here is what I observed in the box: With the phone flipped shut, his eyes are closed. The antennae looks like a cute orange...

Amazon.com: A competitively priced alternative to shopping in department stores.

Sat, 17 Jan 2004 17:36:24 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author brenda5008 - I am a very paranoid on line shopper. When internet shopping became popular, I was still skittish. If I don't like it, it seems like it would be such a pain to go through the return procedure compared to returning it to a real store and arguing with a...

Mr. Clean Magic Eraser: These are so cool.

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author brenda5008 - My four year old son thinks that skateboards are very cool. A family friend decided to get him one for Christmas. We mutually thought it would be a good idea to start out with a smaller style until he got his balance. When Ryan opened up the...

Break out the Oscars.

Thu, 1 Jan 2004 04:41:51 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author brenda5008 - Johnny Depp made this movie. I am not the type of lady to get real jittery about the rich and famous. Really. But there is something about Johnny Depp. I don't care if he is playing Ed Wood, or Edward Scissorhands. There is a flow of sex appeal that...

New outfit, same Tad.

Tue, 30 Dec 2003 12:40:31 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author brenda5008 - I purchased the Hug and Learn Baby Tad for my daughter on her first birthday this month. She actually lunged for it in the toy aisle a month before but I went on line and compared prices and ended up buying it on Amazon.com. Olivia loves music and...

Worst Customer Service Department in History - UPDATED.

Tue, 30 Dec 2003 12:29:44 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author brenda5008 - I am the newest victim of Bellsouth. My husband really wanted DSL because of the things he could do with it, such as accessing his work computer from our at home, and other totally technical stuff that I don't understand. Myself, being the cheaper...

I've been thinking of buying myself a bottle....

Sun, 28 Dec 2003 18:57:14 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author brenda5008 - I don't make a big deal about what kind of soap my daughter bathes in. While my son has easily irritated skin, my daughter has no skin problems so pretty much anything that smells good and gets her clean works for me. I first picked this wash off the...

Cute idea, but cheaply made.

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author brenda5008 - For the past couple of days I've been trying to review the toys my children received as Christmas gifts, as well as what my one year old received the week before Christmas on her birthday.

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author brenda5008 - The musical finger paint toy is pretty unique, I really don't think I've seen anything like this toy yet. Our one year old received this as a gift from a family friend for Christmas. We knew she would love it because she loves music so much, if...

For your little music lover.

Sat, 27 Dec 2003 00:11:22 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author brenda5008 - My daughter, who turned one 7 days before Christmas, received this toy as a gift on Christmas morning. She really loves music but is still too young to know who Elmo is. On the music book, the pages turn from page one to page three. On page one, the...

This little snail can be worth its weight in gold.

Mon, 20 Oct 2003 16:22:20 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author brenda5008 - Okay, so I'm one of those parents who grow dull to age ranges after awhile. With my son, if it recommended ages 12 months and up, then I waited. With my daughter, however, I've learned a few things. At 10 months old, she stays entertained for 2 hours at...

If this movie doesn't make you laugh, you have no sense of humor.

Thu, 16 Oct 2003 21:33:08 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author brenda5008 - I have never been good at watching a movie twice. I mean, what's the point? I already know what's going to happen, and how it's going to end, right? To watch a movie more than once, it has to be great. Really great. I love this movie because my family...

Sun, 11 May 2003 19:02:46 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author brenda5008 - In Alice Sebold's premiere novel she invites us to take a different perspective on life after tragedy.

This movie was so bad I laughed.

Tue, 29 Apr 2003 15:18:48 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author brenda5008 - I have got to say, even when I personally don't really enjoy a movie, it's still usually good enough to make me say at least I know what it's about now.

Not in this case. This movie was horrible. I'm sorry, I know some people are big fans of...

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author brenda5008 - Please. Let me tell you about Jimmy Gray. I want you to be sure not to even make the mistake of walking into this dealership. From the road,it looks quite legit and nice. But as soon as they have your signature on a contract,they become the obvious...

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author brenda5008 - I really just had to write an opinion on this phone service. I do not own a Cricket phone,and there's a very good reason.
