Editorial Review

Belle, the beauty who won the heart of the Beast in the classic Disney animated film, looks ready for the ball in her flowing yellow satiny gown and matching shoes. She's joined by a little blue bird who, in a neat bit of design work, can fit right in her hand. Kids can have fun brushing Belle's long brown hair with the included brush or conducting a tea party with the included teapot and cups. Belle is made of hard plastic so while she is durable, she's better suited for daytime play than snuggling up with at night. --John Moe ... Read more

Great for imaginative play
My 2 year old loves this doll. Very beautiful. We also have Snow White and Ariel. They have tea parties all the time. Great doll and not too expensive.

My Daughter LOVES this toy
My daughter is 3 and got this doll last year and it has been one of her favorites ever since. She also has Sleeping Beauty and Cinderella and loves them just as much. This Christmas I have already bought her the ice skating Belle, Little Mermaid and Pocahontas because she loves them so much. They keep coming out with new ones and I am trying to keep up. Other then the hair becoming very frizzy these dolls are very durable. She has stripped them and lost a lot of the little pieces but she still loves them. She switches their clothes around and makes them pretend they are the other character. With the cute accessories they come with it is very easy for her to have tea parties with them which she loves. All in all this is one of the best toys I have ever bought her and the price is great especially when you find them on sale.

LOVE IT
I bought this for my daughters birthday and she loves it! She has a tea party all the time with Belle, and some other dolls. She absolutely loves this doll! I know when the house is quiet that I will find her in her room with her "baby"

PERFECT FOR YOUR LITTLE PRINCESS!
My daughter has had Belle for over a month and she's still thoroughly enraptured with her. She plays with Belle every day and sleeps with her every night. Included with Belle (see the provided additional pictures) is a tea pot accented with yellow and a large "B" in the middle, two tea cups, one saucer (although I got two,) and two spoons all light pink with yellow accents as well as dark pink roses. Also included are two cookies and a blue bird though why, I'm not sure. You'd think the bird would be with Cinderella.

Belle is of fine quality and very beautiful. Her auburn hair is thick and wavey and best left alone and not brushed even though a brush is included. Because the front hair is twisted and tied back with a yellow bow, the whole hairdo stays in place great. The dress is a bright and cheerful sunshine yellow (which reminds me of my daughter's personality) and is very durable. All of Belle's roses are still on and neither the dress nor the hose has any runs or snags. The only problem is that my daughter liked to take off the shoes at first and they could have gotten lost but that was solved before it happened by tying them on Belle's feet and THEN tying them in a bow. I keep the tea set in a ziploc bag when my daughter is finished playing with them so as to not misplace them.

BOTTOM LINE: I highly recommend this toy and the price is fair. I give it a high educational rating because my daughter has watched DISNEY'S BEAUTY & THE BEAST movie several times and is learning about a strong, independent character which I think is a wonderful role model plus she's learning her manners with the tea set and furthermore is learning how to tie her shoes by practicing on Belle! Any young girl should love to own a Disney Toddler Princess, so buy your favorite little princess one or more today. Belle would make a perfect spring/Easter and/or birthday gift! Also available are: Cinderella, Ariel and ... Sleeping Beauty.

Cute doll!
My 19 month old daughter received this as a Christmas gift from her godmother and she absolutely loves it. She didn't want to put her down. She played tea with her and carried her everywhere, giving her kisses. She is an all out Beauty and the Beast fan and absolutely loves anything Beauty and the Beast so this doll was the perfect gift. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Two old favorites often make a winning combination when they are brought together, as is proven here in this Pooh edition of Candy Land. Winnie the Pooh and his friends, Eeyore, Piglet, and Tigger, move along the winding path of the game board, picking up treats for a picnic in the 100 Acre Wood. No reading is required to play. Children draw cards and then use their color-recognition and symbol-matching skills to advance to the appropriate location on the board. Many adults will recognize this classic game from their own childhood and will enjoy sharing it with the kids now in their lives. A.A. Milne's familiar and enduring Pooh characters will ease children into the often-difficult concept of taking turns!--Wendy Slotboom ... Read more

Fun edition for Pooh fans
This edition of Candy Land is cute. The movers for this game are Eeyore, Pooh, Piglet & Tigger. The board is set up like Candy Land, but has the 100 Acre Wood theme. The color cards are a little dull compared to the Candy Land original ones that I remember. It might confuse younger kids just learning their colors. The dynamics of the game are just the same. Still a classic game for beginners.

Not happy with this game.
I wasn't sure about the game before I bought it, and now that I own it. I really dislike it!

This is why:

The game looks more like a Winnie the Pooh Birthday Party than a Picnic.

The gameboard feels very cluttered with all of the winnie the pooh cardboard standing parts.

The gameboard is even worse because because the colored squares seem extra small, and the playing pieces are extra big.

Eeyore, if placed on the board with his head facing forward, will take up 3 spaces.

The colors are not simple colors making the teaching value of this game very poor.

I suggest buying the original game, because this one is truly not that good.

Very Cute
My 4 year old son loves Candy Land, but having his friends from the Hundred Acre Wood in the game adds tons more fun. He definitely enjoys this very playful version a lot more than the original. A must first game for your Pooh lover!

Great game, bad set up.
I loved Candy Land as a kid so I got it for my son's 3rd birthday. It was great the first time we took it out of the box but after that, we never set up the pop-ups again. It just takes too long and when you put one in, the others sometimes fall out. Also, the playing pieces are large and it's very hard to put two pieces on the same color. It's great for kids who know their colors and who are learning how to count! If I had it to do over, I'd just buy the original one.

Kids like it....but mom does not!
The confusing colors are an annoyance. Every time we play, we get into a debate about whether one color is orange or red. There is another yellowish-orangeish color which we have named "creamy."

The playing pieces are too big for the squares. The pop-up figures add another 5 minutes of set-up to a game that is already tedious. I confess that I "stack the deck" of Candyland cards so that none of us will get sent back near the beginning just as we were (oh please!) about to end the game.

However, my kids at 3 and 4 years old did like to play Candyland. It is a nice, simple game for children who are just ready to start playing board games. I love playing games with them, but usually encouraged them to choose other games than this one..... ... Read more

My 4 year old really enjoys this game
My recently turned 4 y.o. boy loves this game. Some games are a bit difficult, even for an adult (the lob-the-kelp-ball into the shark's mouth game), but as a whole, the game is a keeper. There are cool clips of the movie, the music is not annoying, and some of the games are educational (there is a music composition game and a memory game). The sea turtle racing game is so fun, I find myself finishing my son's games when he tires of it! Knock on wood, so far we've had the game for months with no software glitches. We use Windows XP.

Fun for the kids and the grown-ups!!!
Very cool!! Even though I hardly ever play it, stragety is the name of this game. Try and be the first player to get Nemo back home to his anemone. This kinda reminds me of an old Pocahontas game I have. Overall, it's very cute, fun, and educational.

We all love this game!!!!!
My four-year-old son received this game as a gift. He is a huge Nemo fan. At first, we thought the game might be too complicated for him, but after a few run-throughs, he got the hang of it. After a couple of weeks of playing the game every day, he wins most of the time. This game teaches children to think strategy. It's terrific and I highly recommend it. (Hard to admit, but the other night, my husband and I played after the kids went to bed!!! Ha, ha, ha!) ... Read more

You wouldn't think a turtle could be cuddly. Charming, yes. Gentle, of course. But fortunately, this plush re-creation of Squirt from Pixar's wonderful film Finding Nemo is also plenty soft enough to snuggle. He measures about 10 inches long and is done up in greens and browns with a floral pattern on the back of his shell. His eyes are made of hard plastic, but the rest is all soft and squeezable. We were impressed not only with the idea of a soft turtle but also with how true to the artwork of the film this little Squirt really is. Surface wash only. --Charlie Williams ... Read more

Cool toy but.......
This toy is great fun when it works. Putting petroleum jelly on the conections solved our pipe flying appart problem. The base should be heavier but reducing the warter pressure solves this. I do not like a toy to have this many problems straight out of the box but it is fun with the bugs worked out.

It's a dud!
My four year old picked this out. (yeah, I know it says five and up but it's a sprinkler!! how complicated can it be!!!!) It won't stand up no matter where you put it, and it needs to to use it right. You need to fill this lttle tiny base with water and it's just not enough to make it stand. And then the hose attachment leaks. Not worth it!! ... Read more

Made just for preschoolers and early elementary students, Leap 1 Bookspack lots of lessons into one engaging, interactive story. Here, Tigger helpsenhance reading and pronunciation skills; identify characters, themes, andsettings; and develop memory retention. He also makes reading lessintimidating--and more fun--as he bounces himself into one new discovery afteranother. Just stick the included book cartridge into a LeapPad, put the book inplace, and, with a parent's guidance, the LeapPad takes care of the rest. Flipthe book over and Tigger invites your child to play learning activities withhim. Note: This book works with all LeapPads except the My First LeapPad Book.--Diane Beall ... Read more

Pooh Fan Loves This
My 2 1/2 year old loves the original Winnie The Pooh movie. This book is an abridged section of this movie. My little boy can sit through each page, listen to the stories, and touch everything to make sure he does not miss any sounds. He loves every page in the book. He is not a fan of any of the books with Leap, except the story in the book that came with the Leap Pad. If your child likes Pooh or the Pooh movie, then this book is a must.

Can pass on this unless your child is a winnie the pooh fan
This one has a rather sad story where tigger gets into trouble with bouncing, ending up stuck in a tree with baby roo. The story ends with rabbit gloating over him and wanting him to stop bouncing for ever after tigger is rescued. So, my 2 year old never wants to finish reading this story, its just too too sad! He likes the pooh bear story much better! Not too mqny activities and games either on each page

Not a great addition to our Leap Library
Although my four-year-old daughter loves Leap's Birthday Hunt, she rarely uses this book. The story isn't as engaging as the Leap stories and the games aren't as interactive and fun. From now on, we're sticking to the Leap series. ... Read more
