This plastic table is just the thing for toddler tea parties inthe yard--or regular meals in the kitchen. Screw the four fat pink legs(it's easy, thanks to wide threads) into the plain white top, and youhave a simple, sturdy, easy-to-clean surface that's 22 inches squareand 19 inches high. The two identical blue chairs (10 inches high atthe seat, 22 inches at the comfortably rounded back) have legs thatsplay slightly, so they're very stable. The table is easy to take apartfor flat storage. You'll need to pull up some extra chairs if a lot ofstuffed animals want to join the party. --Richard Farr ... Read more

I love this set!
After searching for a long time for the perfect table and chairs for my daughter, I decided this one is it!! As soon as I assembled it, she was sitting at the table eating her dinner! Now she only wants to eat at the table, like a big girl. This set has been colored on, stood on, sat on and is still in great shape. The chairs have been knocked over, stood on, dragged around the house and arent even dented! My daughter eats at this table, plays here, and colors at the table. She loves it, and I love it too. The colors are fantastic for a boy or a girl, and its so pretty! The details in the chairs and table legs make it a lovely set. My parents have a little tikes set from my "baby" (20 year old) brother that is still in the backyard for the grandchildren to play with, so I know this set will last and last. My only issue with this set is that I had a really hard time getting crayon off of the table surface, and that the chair seat is pretty small. I know Im not exactly supposed to fit, but I can on the other little tikes sets. (big primary etc) Otherwise, its easy to assemble, inexpensive, good looking, a great deal!

Great set for the price!
After looking at several table and chair sets for our 18 month old daughter, we chose this set for it's price and appearance. We wanted something that our child would have fun with while not having to worry about her ruining a good piece of furniture. We made the right choice! This set is so adorable and very durable. Our daughter loves to have tea parties and color at this table. Crayon just wipes right off. Although she is still a little short to sit on the chairs by herself, she is able to sit comfortably and we know she will get much use out of this table for years! I would definitely recommend this table to parents who are looking for a cute and sturdy table for a reasonable price!

Great table for your little one!
We bought this toy for Emma for xmas and she loves it. It's very sturdy and durable. She gets hours of enjoyment out of out. She even eats her own meals at it. Highly recommended~

Great furniture for great kids
Last Christmas Santa brought our very special grand daughter this table, chairs and matching pink toy box.

This is an excellent set of furnishings for a toddler. They love having meals, color and art time, anytime on a table their own size table. The colors are pretty and the pieces are very durable. (Plastic doesn't get termites, worm wood or chipped!!!)

Another thing to consider, as I was first big on getting our little princess "painted heirloom wooden furniture". A toddler doesn't usually appreciate expensive stuff. These pieces are durable, cheap and if your little prince or princess "marks it up a bit" you're not going to have a stroke because it's affordable. Save the big buck furniture for when their older and will appreciate the finer things in life. For a toddler it doesn't get much better then Little Tikes!!!!!!!!!

Sturdy chairs, Easy to assemble, Additional chairs available
I bought this table and chair set today at my local TRU. Before I opened the box, I called Little Tikes to make sure I could buy more chairs. I have three daughters and watch a little boy, so two chairs just won't do. However, TRU didn't have anything with more than two, and Little Tikes has rarely failed me in the past so I chose this set. ...

When I assembled the table, it was a snap...or should I say screw? Literally all I had to do was screw the pink legs into the table top. I think it took me longer to open the box than it did to set up the table. The chairs are all one piece plastic.

The table is a tad wobbly, which is why I gave it a 4 on durability. I have no doubt that one of my kids will attempt to stand on it the instant my back is turned. I don't feel that it will collapse, but it will wobble enough, in my opinion, to set them off balance. My youngest daughter is 18 months old and a little on the short side, but she has no problems sitting in the chairs.

This purchase was a long time coming for me. I considered for a time a nice wooden set, but in the end decided that the durability and fun appeal of a Little Tikes product outweighed the cutsie-sophisticated idea of a wooden set. Plus there will inevitably be crayon and marker scribbles, jelly and yogurt spills, and toy hammer misses...I would rather my kids learn and enjoy themselves on a plastic set that can take it than worry and protect a wooden set and hinder them.

NOTE: The extra chairs arrived today, one week after I called and ordered them from LT. My experience with their Customer Service department was excellent and highly efficient. Most importantly, there's no more fights over who's turn it is to sit in the chairs! ... Read more

For the toddler who's just discovering construction toys, theMega Blocks Wagon is a simple way to take building materials from siteto site. Topped with a sturdy plastic handle, the wagon is just over afoot high and runs on four 6-inch plastic wheels. Inside are 50 assortedMega Blocks. (These are mostly plain blocks but include a car and twopeople blocks.) The side of the wagon has a row of Mega Blocksknobs, so grand structures can be created right on the top of thewagon. --Richard Farr ... Read more

mega fun!!!!!!
this was a gift for my son last christmas and he loves it. he still plays with it to this day. he tries to build things it great for a childs develpment.

My 2 year old LOVES this toy!!!!!!!!!!!
My husband and I bought this for our son's second birthday and he has played with it for hours every day since then. We could have saved ourselves a fortune on other toys because this was a steal and by far his favorite toy ever. It is very durable, he drags it all over, throws the blocks in and then dumps them out! We have already purchased an additional set of mega blocks. I would HIGHLY recommend this toy!

Fun fun fun
I like this wagon because its so simple and fun for my daughter. She pulls the wagon around EVERYWHERE and even puts all her other toys in it, including dolls, and rides them around. My husband took the blocks out and put my daughter (29 months)in it and ran her up and down the hall! For [$$$] what a great buy.

Perfect for a younger builder....
These blocks are the perfect size for my littler builder who immediately made his first masterpiece moments after opening the wagon.... my only wish is that there were more blocks.

He also appreciates having a "handy storage" place for his toys... the little guy is fastidious... (yes, I am blessed!) We play "build" and then "throw the blocks into the basket".... so the wagon can double for lots of things.

The handle did fall off though it was easily reattached. I don't think its meant for "heavy duty" play.

Great Product
This was bought for my son last fall when he was 2 and he absolutely loved the wagon. While the blocks get scattered and we cannot find most of them, the wagon is a godsend out in the yard. When it comes time for him to pick up his toys, he pulls the wagon along behind him and puts them all in it. This wagon has been left out in the sun, rain, snow and whatever else mother nature throws at us and has yet to show any signs of sun fade. Nice product! ... Read more

Great Buy!
I purchased these balls about a year ago directly from Toys R Us. We had purchased the inflatable frog shaped pool for our then 1 year old and it came with only 10 very HARD balls. After finally locating the correct manufacturer despite it being a Little Tykes Product and being told the extra balls were 25 cents per ball plus S&H. I decided to search the web and came across the Fisher Price box of 100 balls as an option. I was very pleased. The balls are colorful and very flexible if stepped on they simply pop back into shape. 1 year later we're now using them in the kid's "Bounce Around Classic" and they're still in excellent condition!

I threw the balls in the play yard!!!!
My 1 year old son doesn't mind going in the safe surround play yard now that it is filled with the balls! I use the play yard to help block off access to some electrical outlets and the window, so it is a permanent fixture in our main room. He loves playing in the balls, and I love knowing he is safe. I can do laundry and the dishes while he is giggling and having fun.

2 much fun for 2
My 2 kids love it. These balls don't attract dirt and fiber like most toys tend to, so I'm not worried when my children bury themselves in it. I rated 3 stars for education because the only thing my children learned was picking the balls up after themselves.

Great Balls but Pricey, there are cheaper options!
These are great balls.........soft and colorful and will help my daughter learn her colors ...

Bright colors, sturdy & soft
I got these to go in my daughter's ball pit - she loves them! They are brightly colored and soft. Great for sorting & teaching colors. These balls are sturdier than most I have seen. They seem to be made of thicker plastic. ... Read more

Great Toy
My daughter loves this toy. There is only one problem, the top yellow curve comes off very easily, so the balls pop out faster. Other then that the toy is great. I love it!!!!

What a wonderful toy!!!
I bought this for my nephew for his first birthday. Not only did he play with this for at least an hour, his almost three year old sister also played with it. I read a comment that a mom complained about chasing down the balls. Well let me tell you, my niece & nephew loved chasing the balls, we didn't have to. I highly recommend this toy.

My son loves this toy!
My son got this toy for his 1st birthday. It took him a bit to learn how to push the plunger but once he did...oh boy! He is now 17 mos and still loves to play with this. He puts his shapes in there and has even put his pinwheel by the air to make it go. My only gripe is that the balls sometimes go everywhere and he loses interest in chasing them and bringing them back. I highly recommend this toy! My son loves it!

favorite toy
We bought this last christmas for our 6 mo old....he was fascinated with it then that the air would blow his hair. Over the last year he has changed the reasons he is interested but he still LOVES this toy. and our second son who is now 6 mo old loves watching it as the older one makes it go. he sings with it now and dances to the music, and tho we use ours all the time have not found it to be horrible on the batteries. Both boys like to stop the balls and catch them and move them to different places and will giggle nonstop for 45 minutes at a time playing with this toy. <br /><br /> WE love it I highly recommend this toy to ALL who have little ones

NO EDUCATIONAL VALUE
We recieved this toy for Christmas for my then 8 month old daughter, last year. The yellow and red pieces snap together and then they snap to the main piece where the balls can be stored. I have no idea why they did this because at 8 months my daughter pulled up on it and leaned on it and it always fell apart! The balls pop out the top and make there way down while music is played which really amused my dog more then my kid. The balls wind up going all over the floor and by the time you collect them all and wrestle the dog for them it has already stopped playing. Also, if all the balls are in it, they go all over the floor, but, if only a couple balls are in it, they dont pop out the top, they just kinda hover in the whole until another ball comes around or it stops playing. My daughter liked the balls by themselves best, especially in the tub. We wound up giving this toy away because all together I saw no educational value in it and it drove my dog insane! ...

Great toy for the money!
This Geotrax add-on is great. At first I thought we would be going through batteries like I owned a battery store but it turns out the batteries last a long time and it has an auto shut down switch if you child walks away from the train. We were considering the wooden trains but for the price this set was a better deal. This set actually made noises and had track switch options. We continue to buy add-ons. Our son loves his train set. ... Read more

cute but dangerous!!!
My 4 year old son received this bike last year as a gift, I loved the classic look, but did not like that it does not have any brakes. This is a cool bike and kids want to go fast, but can't really stop in time. My kid had to drag his shoes on the floor like if he was fom the stone-age era to stop!!! I would not recommend this bike, unless you can figure out how to equip this bike with brakes!!!!

Advertisement misinformation
I would think that the information of a child's bike that did not come equipped with brakes would be listed in the advertisement. This bike has NO brakes. Had I known this information I would never have bought this bike. We have a steep driveway and there is no way for her to stop or even slow down without dropping her feet and risking injury. I am currently writing a complaint letter to the manufacturer regarding this situation.

NO BRAKES?!?!?!?!?!?
Okay... I have to admit that this is an adorable little bike. When my son received it for Christmas I don't know who was more excited! Then I proceeded to assemble it and noticed a 'warning' on the side of the box... "No Brakes".

Correct me if I'm wrong here but I thought the whole point of getting a bike with training wheels was to actually 'teach' a child how to ride a bike. Sure the 10" Radio Flyer may be good for the first 3 months but what happens when your little one 'gets up to speed'? They'll be crashing into everything. Meaning the bike, at best, will be limited to backyard use only. Our intent was to go for strolls around our block... and we live in a very quiet neighborhood with little traffic. Still, I wouldn't trust going around the block knowing my little one couldn't stop on his own if he had to or, God forbid, mommy was a step or two behind and not able to 'grab' him quick enough!

For $...I'd recommend going with a bike that has brakes so that parents and/or caregivers can seize 'teachable moments' (like, stop or you'll crash into the house!).

Bummer... I expected more from Radio Flyer.

Great first bike!
My son and daughter both learned to ride with this bike. My Daughter is only 2 and learned really easily. I am getting her a bigger one for Christmas since she did so well this summer with this one. One thing about it is it is hard to get going with it at first.

Nice first bike
Our 2 year-old (now 2-1/2) loves it. Even though he was only 24-25 lbs. and 29" tall at the time, he would have felt like a baby if we bought him a tricycle or a plastic "toy" bike. Radio Flyer has already shipped us a couple of parts that fell off (from heavy use) free-of-charge... ... Read more

Fun for girls too!
My twin girls received this fire truck as a gift for Christmas when they were 13 mo. old. They got the biggest kick out of it! They loved the fact that they could make it talk and move and put the people in and out. Now that they are 16 mo. old, they have more imagination and can use it together with some of the other little people sets (such as the fire station). The sounds are good quality, it moves on carpet, and is a wonderful first fire truck. Great product!

COOL TOY
My 12 month old loves this truck. It was easy for him to move around. It is also tough enough to withstand the abuse a little boy gives his toys. BUY THIS TOY!!

Great first fire engine!
My 21 month old son likes this fire truck much better than the retired one that fisher price had out. It is easy for him to work. My 3 and 5 year olds even play with it sometimes. If your little one loves trucks this would be a great first fire engine. ... Read more

My little man loves it!!!
We bought this toy for my son for easter he was 6 months old. I wasn't sure he would really pay much attention to it. But he loves it. At first he would just take the top off and chew on it or just watch me as I put the shapes in saying the names and colors. Then he found out he could take the blocks out...which is his favorite thing to do now. I put them in and he takes them out and puts the bucket on his face and yells in it and jus laughs and then he puts a block in it and bangs it around. He loves it. And I love the shapes and bright colors. This toy will last a long time and can be used in many different ways.
As far as the lid coming off too easy well yeah but it's supposed to....that is part of learning...A 6 month old has to be able to get the blocks out on their own.
I would recommend this toy to a parent looking for something that will last for a long time and is fun and educational.

It Keeps Giving as the Months Go On !
We let dd use to dump things out of at a few young age. Then as time went on, she was able to "put things in" the bucket and also dump out. Then she started to recognize shapes and used as a shape sorter. Then at 18 months old, she started to use as a learning tool for reciting colors. Now at 20 months we are working on the names of the shapes.

It is a fantastic toy. I read some of the other reviews stating that the cover came off too easily. I'm actually glad it goes on and off so easily - it allows dd to do things on her own sometimes and. Yes she too has little spats sometimes that she doesn't want to keep the cover on the container - - however we work with it and just lay the cover on the floor and try to have her fill the spaces with all blue blocks or all read blocks.

The only complaint that I have (and it's minor at that) is when using as a shape sorter, sometimes the blocks get stacked up on top of each other inside the container, so that by the time dd gets to the last few shapes, they don't go in right away until you shake the container to rearrange the blocks inside (making room for the new blocks to fall in). This sometimes frustrates dd - - again though it is very minor compared to all the great things this toy has to offer.

It keeps giving and giving and giving !

Great toy, good price.
I tend to buy mostly wooden toys and toys made of high quality materials for my daughter but, I thought I would give this one a try. I must say I was pleasantly surprised! This toy has been washed several times, and still looks almost brand new! My daughter first became interested in the toy at about 4 months--first simply bitting on the blocks, then later taking all the blocks out of the container, and now at 15 months she has really began using the shape sorter! I must say that I am glad the lid comes off so easily, it allows her to work at her own pace, and allows less interuption of her play from me. If she is given the opportunity to play with this toy with only minimal distraction from me, she will get almost all the shapes in without assistance. Since the lid comes off so easily, she can just dump the shapes out very easily. She also likes to put her hands into the shape holes so she takes the lid off in order to remove the lid from her hand. For the parents who were disappointed that their children didn't use the shape sorter right away. Have patience and guide the child, but do not try to force them to play the way "they should." It may take several months, but eventually they will notice that the shapes fit into the holes. Let them work at their own pace. Have faith and show encouragement and help them build their self confidence by guiding them. I think you will be very surprised at just how smart your children really are!

Top is supposed to come off easily!
The reason the top comes off easily is so that your CHILD can remove it himself without trouble. This way, the CHILD gets to decide how to play with the toy. When he's old enough to put the lid on himself, he's ready to start shape sorting if he chooses. If not, buckets of blocks are fun, too. Playing with toys should be about the child, not about the grownup deciding how to play with it. Reading the reviews of this toy is frustrating!!

So now there are rules for how a baby should play?????
We have an older version of this toy (only three different shapes on ours) that we have had since my second child was a baby. Now baby number six is using it and they ALL have loved it! It's one of the few toys I've saved between kids and I'll most likely keep it for all my future kids and grandkids!

I take issue with the complaints that children don't play with the toy "properly". Are we dictating how children should play, now, too, as well as learn?? Even babies have to follow the rules and do things according to someone else's pre-determined idea of "proper development"? PLEASE!! Let's let babies be babies. True learning is self-directed, not teacher or parent directed.

Yes, toddlers usually prefer to dump the blocks out and put them back in without the lid at first, maybe for quite a while. They also love putting other stuff in the bucket. What's wrong with that? When they're older they usually figure out the shape-sorting aspect on their own and become enthralled with that for a while. If they never use the toy as a shape-sorter so what? They'll still learn their shapes on their own without you "teaching" them and they'll learn whatever other "skills" this toy is supposed to teach as well. Can we not try to controll our kids' learning at such a young age - there's enough of that later for most kids.

This toy is a useful learning tool, though not neccesarily in the way every parent will want. It's also fun and relatively cheap and more durable than a cardboard box or some homemade alternatives. If you can allow your child to use it as they desire I highly recommend it. If you feel your toy "investment" must pay off with a pre-determined "learning objective" on a pre-determind timetable then maybe you better skip it. ... Read more

What child doesn't associate summer with carefree afternoons spent in the yard running through the sprinkler? This cute plastic cat, dog and mouse sprinkler is easily connected to any garden hose (not included) and features functions that will grow along with your child.Young tots can push the mouse down for a stationary sprinkler with a gentle water spray; while older children can move the mouse to the "up" position and watch the dog chase the cat, shooting water in all directions for lots of spraying, splashing fun.--Deb Oroszlan ...

It's okay but there's better ones
We bought this for our daughter when she was about 14 months old. She likes the electronic buttons but it's hard for her to drive by herself, and when we push her the front moves so it goes astray. If given the chance, would not buy this again.

Great Toy!
My daughter recieved the Chicco Millennuim toy for her 1st birthday. It came put together, so that was a great help! At first, she wasn't tall enough to sit on it and have both legs reach the ground to push herself, now she can, and loves it. But even then, she would have fun pushing the buttons,and putting the blocks in the slots. She loves to pull the steering wheel off and take it in the car w/her(so the music,and animal sounds will follow us everywhere!)It does get a little annoying as she just holds down a certain button at a time, and we get a barking dog for 15 min.,or a meowing cat,or chirping bird,or car horn...etc. The seat does disconnect when you flip it over, and an adult is required to put it back(sometimes pinches me). At first that was dissapointing, but we've discovered she likes to take it places w/her and play w/the activites on the other side of the seat. The boy who lives next door,just turned 2 and he loves it as well. He is VERY rough w/it - ramming it against the wall, or standing and jumping on the seat, and it remains in tact. All in all, this is a great toy, and I would recommend it to any parent. I know that it will remain in our house,and be one of her favorites for at least another year.

A toy worth fighting over
We set the kitchen timer in 5 minute intervals to share this toy. My 10 month old received this for Christmas. My 2 1/2 year old thinks it's hers. She LOVES the music and rides it around and around the kitchen island. Although my 10 month old is to young to ride the scooter ever since he started standing he has held on to the bar and pushed it. Compared to the other push cars I think the weight of this is best. It has never run away or toppled over. Unfortunately the seat always disconnects when you open it up to play with the blocks inside (an adult has to put it back on). The box showed the shape sorting characters sitting on top of the scooter, they actually fall into the back compartment. They do not stay on top. I love the music...it drives my husband crazy. There is an "off" button if you get tired of listening to it. Definately a good buy!!

A GOOD TOY FOR MANY AGES
My son received this toy a few weeks ago for his first birthday. He LOVES it! The bar in the back is just the right height for a new walker to push, and most of the buttons on the sound board are easy enough for him to manipulate. The little people are cute and the blocks are nice and chunky. The flip-out seat is a little tough to work with (even for sisters aged 2 1/2 and 4), but that's my only complaint! All 3 kids enjoy playing with this toy - each in a different way. It's nice to have a toy that can be played with in so many different ways - I don't think we'll outgrow this one for a long time!

Has issues!
My 2 year old loved the music, building blocks and general features however there are in my opinion two main flaws with this product. Firstly the seat does not stay attached if it is flipped over to the toy section. Maybe this was an error with the unit we purchased but I was forever having to clip it back into the side attachments. Secondly the seat is not solid and my child cracked it when he jumped on it. I did tape the crack but he still managed to snag a piece of skin leaving a nasty cut. Needless to say I threw it out after this incident. So it only lasted 5 months. ... Read more

Great Interactive Toy for Toddlers!
I love the Learn Through Music! You can adjust the volume on the back (where the on/off switch is located). There are two volume levels. My son is 22 months old, and he received this gift last Christmas. He loves the Sesame Street characters, and he will "rediscover" it every couple of days and sit and play with it by himself. However, I have had a hard time finding the Elmo Counting Cartridge. If you invest the money in buying this product, you should buy additional cartridges so they don't get bored with the one that comes with it. Hope this helps!

Great toy but TOO loud
This is a favorite toy among my children ages 2-6. I thought it would be a great toy to bring in the car so they could play with it while waiting. BAD idea, it is so loud, I can barely hear anything else. Otherwise, it's very durable (we have 7 children), it's lasted through being dropped, stepped on, fought over, etc. I put a pc of tape over the speaker, which has helped a little, but now the younger one can't play with it (she eats the tape).

a little loud and good for two and up
My daughter rec'd this toy when she was just over one years old. she has issues with using the mic, you must hold the button down to make the mic work. i also wished that the volume was able to be adjusted.

Pages don't correspond w/the Songs
I'm just glad we didn't have to spend our money on this toy. The Sesame Street version was given to my 2yr old as a gift. The pages don't advance like they are suppose to. She is trying to learn the alphabet starting w/A and it's on Y. Elmo pops up to sing at all the wrong places. The music is great though and she follows along w/the singing of the alaphabet and sings right into the microphone but as far as the page being in the right place when talking about the letter its not. Main problem is the songs don't correspond w/what the page is showing. I've replaced the batteries twice thinking that was the problem but it turns out it's not.

lots of fun
My son doesnt spend more than 2 minutes on each toy, except on
this one. He loves this toy. We bought him all the cartridges,
and we rotate them. He doesnt use the microphone.. but everything works great and has endured lots of hits.
I would recommend this to everyone (from 18 months- 3 years) ... Read more

Editorial Review

This bright red and blue slide is one of those backyard investments that children will incorporate into their play for years on end. The small four-step hike up to the top (36 inches high) makes it safe for toddlers, but the 60-inch-long slide will keep kids as old as 5 well entertained. A slight dip in the slide controls speed while adding a playful tummy-tickle feeling. Even after they turn 5 years old, children will probably find ways to use the slide in obstacle-course play and chase games. Because it's made of thick plastic, it can stay outdoors season after season without fading, rusting, or splintering. --Gail Hudson ... Read more

Great slide!
My twin girls got this slide when they were one. They learned very quickly how to get up the steps, get their feet in front of them, and slide down!! It is a little narrow, so getting their feet in front of them at that age was a little hard at first because they couldn't balance well. They learned fast and wanted to do it over and over again. This slide doesn't take up a lot of space, plus it folds, so it is great if space is limited. Ours is in the bakyard, and it is easy to clean and very durable. My girls love it, it helps with balance, and it is a classic fun toy! My girls are now almost 3, and they don't slide as much, but they still really love it (especially when the sprinkler makes it wet and they go FAST!)

A must for a busy toddler
I am a mother who is planning to move within the next month and I had plans on buying this toy once I moved to put in my backyard. I then received a coupon in the mail so I figured why not get it now. BEST MOVE I COULD HAVE MADE. This slide is so convenient, it folds right up and can be played with indoor and out. I had planned to hide it from my 2 year old, but she saw it. She literally sat next to it for hours waiting for it to be put together. I finally waited for her to go to bed before my mother and I put it together, which also was very easy to do, and she was so excited when she saw it the next morning. Needless to say the slide is still up in my mothers living room, and my daughter spends hours with it EVERYDAY. Not only does she enjoy it, but it really gives me peace of mind while she plays. LITTLE TIKES, YOU'VE DONE IT AGAIN.

Great for indoor or outdoor
We use this toy as an indoor toy for my two year old. She loves to climb and slide on this. We started with the little slide and graduated to this big slide. Though it takes up alot of space inside, it is easy to fold up when we have company coming over or we just need the room. Great toy...........for either indoor or outdoor play.

Excellent Slide!
My 2 year-old daughter loves this slide along with all of her friends! It's a little large for indoors, if you have a small place, but we were able to find room and I'm glad we did! Can't wait to try it outside this summer. It's more difficult to assemble than we first thought, but well worth the effort!

WONDEFUL!
My daughter got this as a gift for her 2nd birthday. She LOVES it! It's great for coordination, packs up easily, and was easily assembled. The look of confidence and satisfaction she got as we cheered her going up and down the slide (also a great way to teach the concepts of up and down) makes the one the best toys she's had so far. ...

Big floppy ears, deep dark eyes, large paws, and a cute tail are all covered in the softest pink and beige fur imaginable. Darny's cuddle quotient goes up even higher, given that she is slightly understuffed for extra "squeezability" when humans need something to soft hug. This Darny is quite possibly the largest dog around. ... Read more

All ages
I bought this for my girlfriends 21st birthday, and she loves it. It's almost as big as she is, and it takes up most of her dorm room bed, but she's happy, so i'm happy.

Happy Dad
I bought this for my daughter on her 4th birthday and she love's it, she try's to carry it around with her but it's just too big for her to carry, she look's so cute when she does carry it around, I want to get my wife one soon, she's loves stuffed animal

A Great Gift
My older cousin bought this for her toddler-aged daughter for Christmas and she LOVED it to death!! All day she was dragging it around the house (or at least doing her best) or climbing all over it. It is very durable and great for younger kids who can occasionally "throw" their toys at walls and people, because it is too big for young children to easily pick up. It would be a great gift for girls of any age, even my teenaged cousin thought it was sooo cute!!

For kids of all ages
Got this as a last resort for my 2 1/2 year old neice for Christmas -- she adores it as did her brothers and sisters ages 6 - 12. Just for smiles alone, this is a winner. And, I have to admit snuggling with it a bit myself before the wrapping!

Sweet
I got this for Christmas, only it was brown instead of pink. My parents are always asking if the can lay on it. It's extremely soft and it's so comfy! I lay on it whenever I'm playing video games. Interesting, isn't it (sarcasm). Oh, and before I got it I thought the paws were attached, and just to let you know they're not. I reccomend this a lot!!!!!!!!! ... Read more

Boots is in the house!
Our 3 year old daughter loves Boots. She talks to Boots and carries him around the house. We give it 5 stars for educational value because when she talks to Boots she acts out scenes from her Dora videos. This helps her alot with her speech skills and imagination. This is a very well made doll. We are also happy with it's size, it's just perfect for her. It's a great buy!

Fun
Boots goes well with the rest of the Dora the Explorer character toys when the kids want to pick up where the tv left off. They have fun going on explorations or just having them over for tea party. ... Read more

Designed to encourage early role play, this small, colorful playground is centered on a giant tic-tac-toe board, with rolling x's and o's, that sits atop a yellow, open-air sandbox. Michael can climb the ladder to the upper platform while Sarah Lynn goes down the red slide and giggles. Other fun features include a musical merry-go-round, a purple tire swing, and a yellow tricycle. This would be an entertaining, developmentally rich toy for preschoolers. Required, but not included, are three AA batteries. --Andy Boynton ... Read more

Great Toy.
Our daughter loves all her Little People toys. They are durable and easy to clean. They are great fun for her & all are wonderful.

Lots of fun!
My daughter received this toy for her second birthday. She enjoys it thoroughly, especially the merry go round and the tic tac toe board. This toy has been known to travel along with us in the car and has kept the teddy bears company as well! Along with her other Little People toys, this one is definately a hit!!

attn: customer service
I was billed $23.16 for a $14.99 toy. When I questioned via the web site e-mail as to why the item was not shipped per poundage at a considerably lower cost, I received no reply. Also, the tax appears to have been applied to the $6.29 shipping also. As I expect this message to be reviewed, please forward to the appropriate department's supervisor.

NOT for posting.

Please respond

Thank you,

A must have for your Little People collection
This set is so cute ... and my children (4, 3 and 1) love this set as it's just like the playground equipment they visit at our local park ... so they make the Little People do exactly what they like to do when they go to the park.

It's easy for my children to put the Little People in and out of the tire swing and on the little Merry Go Round. The Merry Go Round has music and you can hear laughter from another button at the top of the slide. The tic-tac-toe game also spins and makes a great noise as well (my 1 year old particularly likes that part!). The 1 year old also finds it easy to put the Little People on and off the bike.

As we have found with all our Little People sets - this set is extremely durable and easy to clean ... a perfect addition to your Little People collection.

We LOVE this!!
I was so excited to see that my 20 month old got this for Christmas from his grandmother! It is the cutest toy--It has a play structure, including a merry-go-round, slide, even the little tic-tac-toe rotating blocks like they have at a real playground. There is also a little tire swing, and it comes with a tricycle. The two people that come with it are so cute also. My son's favorite feature is the fact that when you push a button at the top of the slide, you hear children's laughter. He cracks up everytime the button is pressed.

This is such a great toy, and a wonderful addition to your Little People collection! ... Read more

Excellent as a first bike, the Ready-to-Ride comes in bright, friendly primary colors and the classic Radio Flyer stylings that remind parents of the little red tricycles of their youths. As with all Radio Flyer trikes, the Ready-to-Ride is built to last with a durable steel frame and heavy-duty treaded tires. Plastic bucket seats provide a comfortable ride and rubber handles offer a secure grip. Kids can tow a doll or load toys into the yellow storage bin on back and announce that they're coming through with the loud bell on the handlebar. Parents will appreciate the trike's low center of gravity and controlled turning radius that prevents it from tipping during speedy turns. The lightweight and portable Ready-to-Ride also easily folds up for storage and has a handy grip in the back of the seat for carrying or hanging. A reliable safety latch ensures that the trike won't begin to fold up midway through a ride. The Ready-to-Ride trike comes fully assembled and is covered by a one-year warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde ... Read more

Classic Radio Flyer That Is Portable and A Big Hit!!!
I bought this trike for my 1 1/2 year old and just loves it. It is fully assemble and easy to collapse making it portable to take with us in the car. My son just loves to push the tricycle around. He hasn't quite figured out pedaling yet, but it's easy for him to push it with his feet. I haven't seen anything to lead me to worry about it tipping. This bike is much more attractive then some of the plastic models out there.

Danger!
We bought this for our 3 year old and were very disapointed. We found this trike to be very dangerous. He rode this bike and fell over many times, we also have the fisher price 3 in one bike and that never happened before. We bought this trike as a rite of passage beliving in the radio flyer name brand and tradition. Took it back to the store! Just because it looks cute is not worth the risk of injury to our son. Sorry Radio Flyer but you need to redesign this one!

Great trike!
I have a 2-year-old who is small for his age, so I was looking for a smaller trike. He loves this trike and it is not tipsy as some of the other models of Radio Flyer are. The other comparably-sized (and same-priced) trike is the Preschool Fold-up Trike by Friendly Toys, but it is not nearly the trike that the Radio Flyer is. The RF is way more heavy duty and for the same price! Another bonus is not having to assemble it. It's already assembled! My little boy started pedaling on it right away and he's never ridden a trike before, so I know it must fit him well. ... Read more

Nothing makes a little one feel all grown up more than his or her very own bed. This toddler bed features solid wood construction--no particle board here--with a soft natural finish. The headboard and footboard are nicely detailed, with lots of curved edges. This attention to detail and safety continues right on through the slats in the headboard, footboard, and two guardrails, which are all gently rounded. Designed to fit a standard full-size crib mattress, the bed measures 56-1/2 inches long, 29 inches wide, and 28-1/4 inches high. The headboard, footboard, and guardrails all come fully assembled, although these need to be put together with the seven support slats (of which there are three different types) and the two side rails that form the base of the bed. Easy to follow instructions (with lots of diagrams) as well as everything needed to complete the job--screws, barrel nuts, and even an Allen wrench--are all included. This toddler bed is not designed for children under 15 months old or over 50 pounds. --David Morel ... Read more

Perfect size for toddlers
I purchased this bed along with Flower Fields 4 Piece Toddler Set for my 15 month old daughter. And she loves it ! She hasn't even fell out once. The ajustment from crib to toddler bed has been so easy. Definetly worth the money.

Nice, inexpensive toddler bed, but...
This "starter" bed arrived very quickly (two days to Alaska) and was very simple to assemble--we hardly even had to read the instructions. Our only complaint was that the headboard and footboard were not wrapped in the box (other parts were) and therefore had some significant scratches from bouncing against each other. I will be calling the company to request either a discount or replacement. Overall, however, this bed seems to be pretty well made and sturdy, especially considering the cost. My son, 17 months, took to it right away. We recommend this bed and feel it is worth the price, even with shipping costs.

2 Year Old Twins Fall Out Several Times A Night!!
We purchased these beds for our 2 year old toddlers because they were able to climb our of their cribs and we were concerned for their safety. Well, the side rails are way too short and both my twins fall out several times a night scaring the life out of them! They are now terrified to even go to sleep in them at all.
Before purchasing these beds please consider whether your children move around alot while sleeping, like ours do, and remember it's VERY easy to fall out.

The best buy ever!
I was apprehensive about buying this bed after reading reviews that it was so difficult to put together. I couldn't believe it! I had the bed together in less than a half hour (and I'm not that good at assembly). It was very easy to do and the instructions are simple and straightforward. My son loves the bed as well as his new independence. I would definitely recommend this toddler bed. It's inexpensive and a good purchase. It's sturdy and looks good. My son loves it!

Great Toddler Bed
Had planned on using the toddler conversion of my daughter's bed, but it was still too tall for her at 12 months so we purchased this bed for her. She felt like a "big girl" immediately and it really gave her a sense of independence to get in and out of bed alone. Well worth the money because you can use the crib mattress for this bed as well!!!! ... Read more

Good toy
My daughter (now 8 months old) seems to like this toy. She still isn't able to pull the lines through the knot block by herself yet but she definitely enjoys chewing on it and throwing it around. Caution to parents with infants with "spastic arms": This toy can land a pretty good blow to the noggin so be careful. :-)

Plenty to mouth and explore, Great for the car seat!
I bought this for my baby's car seat because it has a lot of things on it but doesn't take up as much space as other car seat activity packed toys. My baby loves chewing the star, the "entrails" on the ball (that jingles), and the rings. It has many textures that are also fun to mouth and the triangle crinkles and the other star squeaks, but my baby hasn't figured that out yet. It doesn't captivate her as a floor/play time toy, but it keeps her happy and entertained enough in the car seat where there isn't much else to do.

A new mom
My daughter absolutely loves this toy. We bought it for her when she was 2 months old. She is now 5 months old and she still loves to pull on it, touch it, and put it in her mouth. She is fasinated by each part of it. We keep it in her diaper bag and always make sure that it comes with us. It is a great toy to keep her busy. I highly recommend this toy to all new moms.

He keeps him entertained.
My son has loved this toy since he was 3 months old. He's 8 months old now. It's a really good chew toy because of all the different textures. The major complaint I have about this toy is that it's hard to wash. I check it constantly to make sure no crud has accumulated.

My son's favorite toy
My son is a very quiet and observing baby (now 7 months). This has been one of his favorite toys since we gave it to him at 3 months. He is just not starting to play with the sqeaker and pull the cords, but he has been able to chew on it helping his teething as well. Overall, this is a well-rounded toy that I think will be his favorite for a long time. ... Read more

Editorial Review

It’s hard to overestimate how useful a solid plastic picnic table can be to any household that has young messy children running around. Indoors, it can be a perfect place for youngsters to sit and have a midday snack or get out the coloring books and engage in some creative play. On a hot day, haul the whole thing outside and use it as a pit stop for kids to fuel up on some fruit and water before heading out into the sun for more excitement. This collapsible picnic table from Little Tikes holds six small kids comfortably and looks like it can take quite a bit of the pounding that kids are bound to dish out. Collapsing it was easy but is not likely to happen by accident. The red, blue, and brown color scheme can fit in with any room décor and absorb the juice stains, crayon marks, and ball ricochets that it’s bound to receive. --Charlie Williams ... Read more

best gift ever!
My family loves this table. We use it in our kitchen for crafts and snacks/meals. When company comes over, it's the "kiddie table". It's sooo much better than having the kids destroy our wood table. If you have a smaller kitchen, like me, it's fabulous b/c you can fold it down and store it in your garage, or another room!

THe middle cracks ARE annoying, but I just clean them out with a sponge. For me, the worst part is the hole. My kids put food down it, which falls on the floor. I WILL be taping that up soon!

Excellent for toddlers & preschoolers
I bought this table as a birthday present for our 2 year old son. I decided to get this larger one since we also have a very tall 4 1/2 year old. They abosolutely LOVE this table. They play at it with a picinic set outside, playdoh, water, sand, eat lunch at it, etc. It's big enough to accomodate them both plus friends with plenty of leg room. If it gets really grubby, you can spray it off with a hose, or make it a game of clean-up with the kids equipped with a bucket of water & paper towels! The cup holders in the middle are pretty pointless, but very easy to clean out. I can already see that I'm going to have to set this up inside this winter, because it's used daily. We have even brought it into the dining room to use as childrens seating when we have lots of friends over. I can't reccommend this table enough! Well worth the money & super durable!!

Great Table-Indoors and Out!
My son got this table for his 2nd birthday and it's used frequently. I do agree that setting it up and folding it for storage can be difficult. The little support "brackets" are pretty flimsy but careful finessing on our part has proven beneficial in that nothing has broken (yet!). This table stays outside all summer and we bring it inside for the winter so the kids can use it downstairs for playing house and crafts/coloring projects. It cleans up easy with soap and water and they love the cupholders. I can see where 3 or more at the table at a time would fight over only 2 cupholders though. All around, we're very happy with this table.

Great Table but HARD HARD HARD to get locked into place
I agree with other posters that I was fairly certain I would snap the plastic pieces that you are supposed to pull up to lock for support. It was equally as hard to take down but I did it first day so I could return it if it broke. I have kept the receipt and plan to test that opening and closing a good bit in the next 30 days to be sure it is O.K. I can't leave it outdoors so I really need the fold away option. If I did not need to fold it away, I would go with another brand that stays up all the time. :)

Nice table but not what it is advertised as
Easy store insinuates that it is easy to fold up and store. In fact it says that right on the sticker attached to the table when new. It is anything but. It is extremely difficult to snap the flimsy plastic stays under the table into place. I can't believe I got them in there without breaking them. We have to leave the table up though, therefore we cannot fold it up and store it because it is absolutely, unequivocally IMPOSSIBLE to get the plastic stays back out once they are snapped in place without breaking them. This is a very poorly designed table. The dirt and kool aid collector in the center of the table wasn't such a smooth move either. For basic funtion and durability, the table is really great. Too bad the engineering flaws ruin what is otherwise a pretty good product. ... Read more
