Fisher-Price Laugh & Learn Say Please Tea Set Review
Silly sounds, fun songs, and surprising discoveries help make teatime memorable! |
Encourages problem-solving, counting, sharing, and good manners, like saying, “Please” and “Thank you!” |
Imaginative Play, With Developmental Benefits
The Say Please Tea Set’s classic theme introduces baby to early role play and social skills. Sing-along songs & phrases help baby learn about manners and sharing. Tea Set comes with three teatime treats shaped like a circle, triangle and square, which fit perfectly on matching sections of the serving plate. This encourages shape sorting and problem-solving play. To help make the most of your teatime together, try talking to your baby as you play, to help her associate words with actions. “I’m pouring tea into the cup. Can you open the lid?” Or count the treats as you show your child how to place them on the tray. Then let her give it a try. Best of all, invite friends (like dolls) to share in the fun of a tea party. Be sure to use extra-nice manners, and make sure to say, “Please!”

Fisher-Price Fun-2-Learn Computer Cool School Review
|
Computer Cool School requires that you connect the Computer Cool School keyboard to your computer with a USB cable and install the game's software on your computer via a CD-ROM. The installation is fast and easy; the software's set-up wizard walks you through the process. Before letting your child play, you can use the parental controls to set things like volume and number of copies that can be printed. Parents can also create a password that protects their hard drive and prevents their child from going on the Internet. These parental controls are easy to find and set. The helpful instructions thoroughly describe the setup process and all the different options for play.
Kids play using the sturdy plastic Computer Cool School keyboard. It has big, colorful buttons that your child will learn to use quickly, along with a drawing "tablet" and attached stylus they can draw with. The layout of the QWERTY keyboard is clever yet simple, with buttons along the top and side that let your young ones navigate to different parts of the game. They'll not only have fun, but they'll also feel "adult" because the keyboard looks so much like yours!
Learning Equals Fun!
Each time your child starts to play Computer Cool School, they go to the home classroom where Leo the leopard greets them. From there they can visit one of the four learning "centers," including reading/writing, math, science, music, and art. There is also a "field trip" they can go on, which takes them on a fun-filled visit to a farm.
Each of these centers is unique and filled with great information and stimulating activities. Kids can choose to click on different things and learn about them or participate in a more interactive way, with quizzes, games, or writing and art projects. In the art center, for example, they can create original drawings with a range of tools and colors, and then print or save them. In the science center, they learn about different kinds of environments and the plants and animals that live in them. But they can also choose to play games that test their knowledge and help them learn more.
The graphics in Computer Cool School are crisp, clear, and fun to watch. The colorful creatures, buildings, objects, and environments are beautifully rendered and the animation moves at a good pace -- fast enough to keep your child's interest and let them participate, but not so fast as to be dizzying. The audio is equally clear, and in fact can be very loud -- so be sure to set the volume low to start with. Though kids will be learning constantly throughout the game, they'll also be having fun, which is how learning should be!
Your Child Will Feel Like a Star
We really liked how the software uses your child's sign-in name in the classroom in various ways. For example, there's a sign in the classroom that says "Star of the Day" and your child's name is on it. We also especially liked the art and music centers, which will inspire your children to creative heights. In the art center, you have a huge variety of colors and virtual art implements to use, as well as "stamps" and backgrounds that your child is sure to love. In the music center, children will learn about different instruments and play them in combination with all (or none) of the other included instruments. The clear and colorful (but not cloying) graphics are another high point of this game.
In general, Computer Cool School is very thoughtfully designed, enabling kids to navigate a wide range of play options with a few simple touches of a button. Our only complaint was that we couldn't find a way to change the volume settings once we'd entered the game. In order to change the volume, we had to back out of the game and reset the parental controls.
There is a short learning curve for figuring out how to navigate through the centers, but once you know how, it's easy to do. Your child will be up and running in no time, having fun and learning at the same time.

Fisher-Price Laugh & Learn Dance And Play Puppy Review
Let your children dance and play games with their favorite new playmate, Dance and Play Puppy from Fisher-Price's Laugh and Learn toys. Dance and Play Puppy guides children through their first experiences with motions and games while simultaneously teaching them how to count and how to recognize the alphabet.
Dance and Play Puppy features two modes of play to help your baby learn while having fun. Songs, phrases, movements, and games occur in both modes, helping your baby learn without even realizing that practical skills are being acquired.
On Puppy's right foot is the "ABC" mode, which is activated by pressing the blue "ABC" disc. Puppy will help guide your baby through motions, letters, and numbers, fostering language development and teaching how to follow directions. On Puppy's left foot is the "Let's Play" mode, and when you press the purple disc on his foot, he'll come to life with baby-friendly motions, lively songs, and that irresistible puppy wiggle!
As Dance and Play Puppy guides your baby through easy-to-follow motions, he will also make fun, surprising movements. His ears will sometimes move up and down as he sings, adding an extra level of engagement to both modes of play.
While some movements engage by surprise, others are familiar. Our product designers included a pat-a-cake mode because it is often one of the first motions parents teach their babies. Familiar songs were also included in Puppy's 25-plus interactive songs, phrases, and games, such as "Happy and You Know It," "Do Your Ears Hang Low," the "Alphabet Song," and more! He'll also blow kisses and teach parts of the body, manners, and greetings.
Assembled toy, six AA batteries, and instructions.

Fisher-Price Xylophone
Encouraging early music-making with a colorful xylophone is a great way to develop a sense of accomplishment while having a lot of fun. And the xylophone is an easy way to do just that. The mallet is attached, so it never gets lost. And easy-rolling wheels make it perfect to pull along and practice walking.
