Safari Floor Puzzle 100 pc Floor

Go on a safari with this 4′ long puzzle. 100 pieces and made of heavy duty cardboard. Great for afterschool or when you are discussing animals that live in the jungle.

Great puzzle
My 5 yr old son received it as a Christmas gift. My son always likes puzzles. He needs some help in the first few times. After that, he memorizes all the locations and did it himself. I think for a 5 yr old, the kid needs to have some patience to put together a 100 piece. The puzzle itself is very well made with beautiful colors. It’s fun to play with and pleasant to look at. Recommended.

Wooden Sushi

Sushi anyone’ This slicing sushi set is a meal fit for an emperor! It comes with three types of pretend-play sushi rolls — shrimp, tuna and salmon roe — plus egg toppings and a few more condiment “extras.” Includes chopsticks and cleaver, too. 24 pieces in all. Measures 9″ x 10″ x 1.5″.

What a unique set.
My daughter saw this in a toy store and instantly wanted it. She loves going to real sushi restaurants, and loves to pretend cook. I didn’t buy it then, but when I came across it on Amazon I decided to get it for her. She has made me endless dinners of sushi. Very well made, velcro makes a wonderful choping sound as the sushi is cut with the knife. Very original pieces and the menu on the bottom of the box allows her to take my order, then cook my meal. Highly recommend to anyone who’s daughter loves pretend cooking.

Incredible Hulk -Determination 550pc Puzzle

550 piece jigsaw puzzle

Hulk puzzle review
This puzzle is very challenging. It measures 18 by 24 inches. It gave us many hours of frustrating family fun putting it together. The “Determination” statement is very meaningful. It says “In the heart of the strong shines a relentless ray of resolve… It cannot be stopped, it cannot be controlled, and it will not fail.” I am going to frame mine and hang it on my wall.

Wooden Pound and Roll

Ages 2 & up. Children will love pounding the four brightly, colored balls with the wooden hammer. They will watch in amazement as the balls pass through the holes and down the ramps! The durable, wooden structure measures approximately 7 ½” x 5 ½” x 5″.

Great toy for price
I bought this toy for my 16 month old boy for Christmas not realizing the age requirement. We showed him how to use it and not long after he was hitting the balls through like a pro! Granted he does use the hammer incorrectly (he uses the long part) but he still got it. I think this is a fantastic educational toy as we talk about the ball colors as well as count the balls as he hits them through. He is getting cause and effect out of it (hit the ball—it rolls down and out) as well as learning hand dexterity. This toy is under $10 so for the price and educational element I give it 5 stars.

Melissa & Doug Deluxe Plush Monster Bowling Game

Teach kids the classic game of bowling – with a ghoulish twist. This wacky bowling set features six furry, funky-textured pins and one beastly ball! Measurements 8.5″ x 7″ x 9″.

My 2 1/2 year old son’s favorite Christmas present
My son absolutely loves this game; he went beserk the first time he saw it and has played it every single day since he got it for Christmas. The ‘monsters’ are adorable, and we play all sorts of other games with them besides bowling. They have been loaded up in dump trucks and dumped out. He even loves just lining them up in a row. The ball is just the right size and weight, yet soft so an errant throw won’t break something. A great toy.
