Another Elmo...this one not so cuddley, but still cute

Thu, 25 Dec 2003 20:54:06 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author drewped - Our Elmo is for a 2.5 year old who's favorite word is EEEMMO. He give a gregarious laugh for Elmo doing the hokey pokey and will go through the 3 song cycle, laughing harder each time. But that is about it. This toy is great for a quick laugh and...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author drewped - If you have a lot of free time and space this may be the toy for your little man. First off. Stickers a good 10 mins. Assembly at least an hour. My husband (extremely mechanically included) and I, spent over an hour and still ended up taking some of...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author drewped - Being at Central was the highlight of my life (at that time). I was not real into the college scene, but had my moments. I worked for the college and made almost double minimum wage, lived in a low-rent apt. and knew almost all of the other students in...

Watch out for this gater!

Wed, 26 Jan 2000 15:17:52 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author drewped - Despite being chosen as the worst toy for 1999, my son loves his gater.

When he first received this toy he was only 8 months old. He just wanted that darn stick! He tried for months to get it off the annoying alligator. He was not interested...

Yahoo! Messenger: My latest addiction..

Wed, 26 Jan 2000 14:17:53 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author drewped - I have had Yahoo Messenger for a long time. However, I did not have any "friends" on it. That has changed dramatically! Once I started to use it, I feel in love. I was a devoutee to ICQ and now spend my time using YM.

All Advantage: All Annoying

Wed, 26 Jan 2000 14:05:06 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author drewped - $9.33! It has taken me a month to get it too so I am proud! However...if I was not such a cheapskate I would never recommend All Advantage. It takes up a good inch of either the top or bottom of your screen, slows down your computer and tends to keep...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author drewped - I am a book person, no doubt. I felt "degraded" when my mother insisted I needed this book. I thought I already knew enough. My ob gave it to me as a congratulations welcome at my first visit. I did not set it down till weeks after my son...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author drewped - My son received this lantern as a gift when he just 2 months old. Although he did not play with it of course, he enjoyed listening and looking at the light. As he has grown so has his interest in his "weird light that makes funny noises"...

Made breastfeeding easier...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author drewped - When my son was born I had two goals. To breastfeed him exclusively and to donate milk to a pregnant friend who was unable to breastfeed. Well, I bought many liners and filled and filled in portions of 2, 3, or 5 ounces each.

Not the best, but...

Fri, 21 Jan 2000 21:23:09 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author drewped - I bought this on clearance and feel I got my $5 worth. We never really used it as a gym since it is so hard and the toys hit him in the head.

However, he did love the toys. They come with loops that can hook onto anything, such as in the car...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author drewped - I knew I needed a bassinet, but didn't want to store a large product that would be used for such a short time. The sit and sooth was exactly what I needed.

Although we never really used the "sooth", a vibrating battery eater, I...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author drewped - My son LOVES the water. So at 7 months old we enrolled in a swim class. He was the star pupil (and the youngest) by far. One thing you need to know about my son is he is....well, bouyant.

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author drewped - At first when this product entered my home, through no method of my own, I was not thrilled. First off, I was not the Teletubbies devotee I am now and I thought my son would be soooo frustrated with this walking device. I was right. He wanted the get...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author drewped - I really think of my strollers as my Pinto and my Cadillac. I use the Pinto (a cheap umbrella stroller) when I have to, but prefer my Cadillac (my Evenflo).

This stroller is easy to maneuver, comfortable for baby and carries everything you...

Thu, 13 Jan 2000 21:21:17 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author drewped - Blue Mountain Arts is the only on-line card I use. Not only is there a large selection, but the cards are creative, different and interesting. I have looked at other programs and they tend to be like a postcard, have few choices or are just real...

My 12 month old was mesmerized!

Wed, 12 Jan 2000 01:09:29 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author drewped - Now if this movie can hold a 12 month old's attention for an hour and a half then if can entertain anyone! My son enjoyed the movie so much he stood up and grabbed the seat in front of him to get that extra half a foot closer to the screen!

Fun, fun, fun!!!

Tue, 11 Jan 2000 20:40:14 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author drewped - I first viewed this movie, to my horror, as a guest in a high school classroom. PG-13??? Not. I was abhorred at the material in a movie about a young child.

We had recently received this movie as a gift and I again watched the movie at...

More trouble than worth!

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author drewped - This is one of the worst baby items we own. It never stays on the wall, it had molded and is difficult to use.

The toys are to be inserted in a mesh pouch. The pouch is difficult to enter and the toys get stuck. It takes two adult hands to...

I started using an Exersaucer Plus for my son when he was two months old. I propped him up to prevent extra pressure on his "back-to-sleep" baby flatten head. He loved the chance to be upright and watch my do my...
