Snug as a BUG!

Thu, 24 May 2001 18:16:50 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author dolpal - I started researching infant seats (again) when I was pregnant with my third child. I still own a Century Infant seat which I also like very much but I was looking for something a little lighter and smaller and the Graco fit the bill. Since I have a 22...

Fits great in my vehicle!!

Fri, 30 Jun 2000 23:09:13 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author dolpal - Let me start by saying that the best carseat is the one that fits correctly in your vehicle. That fact is what led me to the Britax Roundabout.

About a month ago, I started searching for a convertible carseat for my 11 month...

Baby Trend Snap-N-Go: Solved MY problem.........

Wed, 14 Jun 2000 13:16:26 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author dolpal - Right after my first son was born they came out with the "travel systems" where the carseat attaches to the stroller then the stroller can be used as a stroller after the baby outgrows the infant seat. I had already purchased a stroller and...

Worst investment I've made so far!

Mon, 5 Jun 2000 15:11:27 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author dolpal - When my son was 3 months old I went on the BIG search for the perfect stroller. I did research on every product bulletin board that I could find and finally decided that I wanted the Peg Perego Venezia. I have a Peg Perego high chair...

Stack 'em up Mommy!!

Thu, 6 Apr 2000 19:49:19 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author dolpal - "Stack 'em up Mommy!!" This is what I hear, oh, 50 times a day from my 3 year old son. He received the grow to pro baseball from my uncle about a month ago and ever since, it's been his favorite sunny day game!

This grow to pro...

Stay AWAY!!!!!!

When I was 19, I received my very first credit card, a First USA Visa. Looking back, I'm glad to say I was very responsible with my card, always paying the balance on time and never abusing the "credit" privileges. I had a great...

This one gets a THUMBS UP from me!

Tue, 4 Apr 2000 15:21:53 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author dolpal - With my first pregnancy, I was one of those naive women who thinks "naw, I'm not pregnant". I didn't believe that it was possible since we'd only just begun trying. Well, eventually we all come to see the light so I finally decided to...

Reliability at it's best

Tue, 4 Apr 2000 14:02:15 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author dolpal - Looking back, I can see why my mom thought I was so "responsible" when I made my first car purchase. I was 19 years old and ready to let go of my old clunker and invest in a new car. My parents were sure I'd go for the little red sports car...

My LOVE/HATE relationship with AOL

Thu, 30 Mar 2000 18:30:28 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author dolpal - Yes, I know a lot has already been said about AOL but I've just got to add my 2 cents. My relationship with AOL could most definitely be categorized as LOVE/HATE. I first became an AOL member 5 years ago when I purchased my first computer. I...

GO Elmo...... GO Elmo!!!

Thu, 23 Mar 2000 17:36:36 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author dolpal - My son is very "musical". He loves music, any kind, from any source. We first encountered Rock n Roll Elmo when we were at Toys R Us looking at car seats. There he was, big as life, rocking and rolling in the front of the store. "Elmo,...

My best friend the first few months!

Mon, 13 Mar 2000 20:15:40 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author dolpal - I never had one of these bouncer seats with my first child. Now looking back I wish I had. My reasons for loving this seat may be different than some. My son was born with a defect with his esophagus. He had surgery to correct it soon after he was...

Hey, I had one of those!!!!

Fri, 10 Mar 2000 23:02:31 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author dolpal - I had one of these corn poppers when I was a child and my Dad remembers it well. Apparently, I loved this toy so much that not a day when by when I wasn't "popping" all over the house!

So, when I had my first child, good 'ol Dad...

Babys Favorite....or Mommys???

Thu, 9 Mar 2000 19:54:46 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author dolpal -

I'm not sure who loves this toy more, my son or myself. I first purchased the Baby Whoozit for my son when he was 5 months old. He instantly fell in love with it and to this day it remains his most favored toy. I happened upon the full size...

Unsafe!

Tue, 7 Mar 2000 18:40:59 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author dolpal - I was browsing through Target one day and naturally found myself in the toy section. WOW, I thought, an inflatable thinking chair. My son (2 years old at the time) would just love this! The price was reasonable so into my basket it went.

High quailty scans

Tue, 7 Mar 2000 18:15:34 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author dolpal - The CanoScan FB 620U is sleek and incredibly easy to use! It's small design is a great change from some of the more bulky scanners. At 4.4 pounds and only slightly bigger than a piece of paper, it doesn't take up much desk space.

I use my...

Not so good.....

Tue, 7 Mar 2000 18:03:54 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author dolpal - When I first saw one of these teethers, I thought "What a GREAT idea". Well, it was a great IDEA! However, in practice, it just doesn't measure up.

I bought a massaging teether for my son when he was about 7 months old. He'd...

#1 in safety

Tue, 7 Mar 2000 17:50:56 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author dolpal - We purchased the Eddie Bauer version of this seat because it can be adjusted from the front. The reason I purchased the Cosco booster is because it was rated #1 by Consumer Reports for safety.

It has many good points:

~ 5 point...

Spills Be GONE

Tue, 7 Mar 2000 17:09:05 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author dolpal - My son is a major "spiller". He spills everything from drinks to bubbles! Like most 3 year olds, he's too busy having fun to pay attention to whether the cup in his handing is pointing upwards or down! I discovered the bubble tumbler by...

Hours of imaginative play

Mon, 6 Mar 2000 21:42:55 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author dolpal - This garage has provided hours of fun and imaginative play for my son. He received it as a gift when he was about 18 months old and from the first time he saw it, he was enchanted! We put the garage on the floor in our living room and he sat down for...

Fun that lasts!

Mon, 6 Mar 2000 21:04:54 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author dolpal - My son received this farm for Christmas when he was a year old. It was definitely his favorite gift. It has been said that my son has his own Toys R Us right here in our house (well, he probably does....almost). His Little People Farm is by far the...

Saves Paper!

Mon, 6 Mar 2000 20:54:38 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author dolpal - My 3 year old loves to draw, doodle or anything that involves writing! He can go through a book of scribble paper in no time at all. I discovered that we were going through so much paper and decided to get him a magna doodle, hoping he would like it as...

Not just for babies!

Mon, 6 Mar 2000 20:48:16 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author dolpal - When my son was born, the Fisher Price Peaceful Planet Aquarium was all the rage and difficult to even find on a store shelf. Of course, I HAD to have it. I found it online and ordered it because I was sure my son would love it. In fact, he does enjoy...

BAD??? Not!

Tue, 22 Feb 2000 04:08:00 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author dolpal - Let me start by saying that I have 2 children, ages 3 and 8 months. They BOTH love this show. I personally don't have a great fondness for them mostly because I'm an adult and I guess I can't relate. My 3 year old is absolutely crazy about each of the...

Maclaren Concorde LX X268: In a word.....WONDERFUL

Mon, 21 Feb 2000 21:28:33 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author dolpal - First off, let me admit that I am a stroller FANATIC! When I first decided to purchase another stroller, I was looking for advice on which ones were best and that led me to epinions! Based on many member opinions here and other places I decided to bite...

Tue, 15 Feb 2000 19:19:41 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author dolpal - I can honestly say this product is one of the greatest things that I have in my house. My son was born with problems with his esophagus which make eating certain foods difficult for him (they tend to get stuck). With that and my great fear of choking,...
