Operation Spongebob Edition

Operation Spongebob EditionI played this with my 5-yr-old several times. Trains fine motor skills and math. Challenging enough but not too difficult for him while it is still fun for me. I recommend it.

Buy it from Target for the right price.



I purchased this product for a fun rainy day activity for the family.It is fun for the whole family even if everyone is over the age limit. :)

Why is it on Amazon search for this toy, it comes up as 19.99, but when you choose the link it comes up as 47.99?? Amazon has had many items this year with issues like that, and at least double or triple inflated prices for an item that retails in stores for MUCH less EVERYWHERE. What's up Amazon? THis is a classic toy we'd love to purchase here, but not with issues like that! Otherwise, my son loves Operation games and would love this one too. Great for fine motor skills and practicing patience!

It is fun to play with this toy, but not for long.

You get bored very fast.

But it is good for the kids to practice their abilities.

Could there be a more fun take on an old classic game we all remember from childhood? I remember playing Operation when I was a small boy, over 40 years ago & always recall that it was a blast! My youngest nephew turned six last month & is a monster Sponge Bob fan! Immediately, the light bulb goes off in Uncle Mark's head!

This was THE birthday gift this year. The young lad was totally absorbed & could not have more excited. It's great that is this ultra high-tech world we live in, a toy based on a cherished favorite can still be simple, easy to play & barrells of fun. Highly recommended for kids of all ages!

Original Pocket Farkel Dice Game - Miniature Set - Colors May Vary

Original Pocket Farkel Dice Game - Miniature Set - Colors May VaryThe name of the game is Farkel. You could easily confuse it with Farkle, which wouldn't be a major mistake. In fact, you could just as easily confuse it with 10000, 5000, Buzzball, Greed, Hot Dice, Oh Crap, Squelch, Wimp Out, Zilch, or Zonk. And you'd be perfectly entitled, insofar as they are each and all names for basically the same game a dice game, played with six dice, that is most definitely not Yahtzee.

However, the subject of this review is not Farkel, but Pocket Farkel, as a matter of fact. (One of my very favorite game names, that I find myself obliged to repeat in rapid succession many times each time I open the game box).

Speaking of boxes, that's perhaps the key to what makes Pocket Farkel so fun-worthy. It's a handy little box, with the dice fitting snugly into their little foam niches, and the scoring rules (which are difficult to remember for the novice Farkeler) so clearly printed on the inside of the lid. And, as you would assume, it fits tidily into your pocket. Yes, all you really need are six dice. But the package here is the product. Its elegance, its accessibility all invite play, making the game into something unique.

The rules of Pocket Farkel are slightly different than those of your regular Farkle simpler, more scoring possibilities, more engaging. On your turn, you first roll all six dice. You then set aside any of dice that score (see the ever-so handy scoring combination chart on the box lid), and then you roll the rest of the dice. But you have to have to score to go on. If you don't score, you Farkel. And to Farkel is to lose all those conceptually hard-earned points you thought you were getting for that round. As in, "O, Farkel!" Which is another way of saying, no matter how disappointed you get, you just can't take it seriously.

And so the game goes, people scoring. People Farkeling. There's laughing. There's muttering. And then there's more laughing. For a family with kids who can keep score and not care too much about it it's something you might want to take with you everywhere.

The Pocket Farkel people make an astounding variety of Farkel sets there's Pirate Farkel and Froggy Farkel and Moose Farkel, Bear Farkel and Equine Farkel and Gator Farkel. There's Glow-in-the-Dark Farkel and Full Contact Farkel, Fat Free Lo Carb Farkel, and no matter what they're called, they're all Farkel. The dice might look different, but the game's the same. Enticing. Engaging. Major FUN.



I first played this game a couple of weeks ago when visiting my cousin in a nursing home.Six of us played and even with physical limitations, my cousin was able to play and have fun.I would recommend this game; taking a chance on one more roll is fun.

I've rattled away many an hour playing Farkel in laundromats and coffeeshops with my friends.For years one of my buddies always carried a set with him and we'd be up to all hours of the night talking, discussing, arguing, plotting, designing, complaining, and generally doing all the things that friends do; all while playing Pocket Farkel.We played so much that the dice were wearing down and the edges getting chipped, the pips faded.This is a game that will last you forever, is easy to play, and no trouble to carry around.I can't recommend it more.Now I've got my own set, and I carry it with me almost everywhere.

We play this with 6 or more and have a "Speed Farkel" version.We can stop and take our points then the remaining dice and current point value transfer to the next player.They can then choose to take a chance and build onto the previous score or start over with all the dice.It's amazing how "into it" everyone gets.We have so much fun!

I'm normally the type of guy who skips skip-bo. I don't yachtzee. I don't get into most of the "trendy" party games. I was a skeptic when a buddy of mine got me to play this game with him.

I now own my own set, and ordered this mini set to carry everywhere. The game is that easy to learn, that fun to play. You can honestly learn this game in less than 3 minutes. It can be played with two people, or many. Trust me, this is the game to bring with you to cute boredom, meet people, whatever. It even works well in bars.

I cannot stress this enough. If you want something new to try, and your all Texas Hold'emed out, you need to own a copy of this. Since my buddy taught me, we now play with a group of eight. For hours.

So, in short, try this game, and you'll love it.

LEGO Duplo My First Set (5416)

LEGO Duplo My First SetI am shocked at the reviews for this product.Nearly every review mentions the fact that the product is "over-priced for the number of blocks you get" or "you may want to skip this product and buy the deluxe duplo set".I totally agree!

This was definitely the most disappointing toy under the tree this year.Our little guy was graduating from Mega-Blocks to Legos and we put this on his wish list.Based on the nearly "5-star" reviews we chose this "first set".But 30 blocks doesn't build much folks.That is nearly $1.00 per block if you exclude the bucket they come in.

We are VERY disappointed in the value of this toy.Before you believe the other "5-Star" reviews, read them carefully.Nearly every one of them states "few blocks for the money" and/or "looking to get more blocks".I am not sure why they gave it "5-stars" if they thought the toy was insufficient for the price or play value.

If you need an expensive bucket to hold Lego's, then this product may be just what you need.

Sheesh!

My son received this Lego Duplo set for his first birthday and he plays with it everyday!At first he just liked to knock down whatever I created with the blocks, but now at 15 months he can build too!The blocks are very colorful and sturdy.But this set is fairly small.We are purchasing the Deluxe set for Christmas to expand our building optionsI might suggest starting with the bigger set and skipping this one!

A small complaint is that the lid is too hard for my son to open on his own, so we don't usually close it tight.Although, this could be a good feature if you needed to be sure the lid stayed on during travel or other circumstances.

If I'd paid $26 for this small set of Legos, as some reviewers have, I would feel so ripped off. But I paid less than half that, noted the amount of pieces in the box, decided to purchase two boxes at the same time rather than one. There's totally not enough pieces in one box (and there's barely enough in two). After all, I grew up with Legos and remember how lame they can be if you don't have enough pieces. Really, a truly fine Lego Duplo Set needs in excess of 200 pieces, in my opinion. However, I didn't want to just run out and spend 80-something dollars on a huge set only to find that my kids cared nothing for Legos.

Each box in 'My First Set' contains a pretty fun mix of pieces of 33 pieces; a window, a doorway, one of each color of the 'double' length (eight dot) pieces, two of each color of the 'single' length (four dot) pieces. Two pieces with eyes, a couple novel pieces (that can be used to make a bird), a red and blue flower, and one gray cat. Since my days of Legos where the pieces only came in red, blue, green and yellow, three new standard colors have been added; orange, light blue, and spring green. It makes a huge difference aesthetically.

These pieces, while nice, are just not enough. I emphasize the need to buy two sets, which is about what you'd pay for the 71-piece set anyway. Double the pieces, and you actually have enough to make small building facades or a really cool robot, or various small animals. My 4-year old is able to make more complex objects. The 2 year old just likes to put the pieces together and pull them apart in random order and say 'I building!' They both love the cat that comes with it too. Both children seem enthusiastic enough about these two small sets, and are entertained for about 30 minutes at a time before erupting into a huge fight over the pieces. We'll definitely be getting more down the road.

I think two of these sets, bought at a reasonable price, are a fine introduction to the world of Legos for a young child. Maybe somewhat less so for two small children :) 66 pieces is a reasonable amount to start with, but I'd shop around for a fair price it is out there. I would highly recommend this to other parents introducing Legos to their young toddlers and preschoolers.

By the way, this particular set of Legos was made in Hungary, Czech Republic, Germany, & Mexico. Of note is the fact that it was not made in China which I think is a big point in its favor.

We have several sets of these Duplos and they are still loved and played with by kids even when they get older.To be honest, they're wonderful to build huge towers with them, and the older kids also add the smaller legos for bridges, roads, etc.They're just great fun, will last a lifetime and the price here is great on them too.They're still loved in this house highly recommend!

Want LEGO Duplo My First Set (5416) Discount?

We got this "My First Lego Duplo" set in December 2008 for our twins because our older son loved his starter box of Lego Duplos when he was the same age (about a year and a half old).

In 2004, it cost about fyfteen bucks on sale (normally twenty) for a starter box/chest that contained 140 blocks. I have searched high and low, and that same plastic chest with 140 blocks is nowhere to be found.

Instead we got the current version of the starter Duplo box. The blocks themselves are great -the few of them that there are. This rectangular bucket, which is just slightly smaller than the earlier chest, contains just 33 blocks, which don't build very many things and nothing big.

That's a small fraction of the quantity for the same price.

Later I found that the closest thing to our old 140 block chest is the bulk set of 144 blocks without a storage chest for around f0rty bux via online or mail order. DUPLO Bulk Set

So although our children like the Duplos (even my older son still uses them more than four years later) and they never break or wear out, boo to Lego for its stinginess to kids.

Euro II Grow With Me Chair

Euro II Grow With Me Chair CHERRYI bought one of these secondhand at a consignment shop and it has been such a lifesaver.I can finally get my sons to sit in their seat and not my lap.They are able to get up to the table and eat comfortably without the seat sliding around like some of the boosters we have tried.I am now buying two more so everyone has one. It is a must have for the step between highchair and regular chair.

I have had one chair for my 3 yr oldgranddaughter for a year. It's been so wonderful I got a second one for our 1.5 yr old too.They fight over the one we have. It has held up beautifully and works great at the table. Highly recommend this chair. It is sturdy and stable even as they climb up and down.

The chair is great, very sturdy, but the color is horrible because it nicks very easy.I'd go with the lighter color which looks nothing like the picture.My friend bought the lighter color and is actually a very light natural wood color.I got the cherry to match it to my kitchen furniture but even brushing up against the table will cause a nick.Overall happy with the chair besides the color.

The chair works well enough for what it is.My son has been using this chair for about two years.The wooden back started cracking right way, but never actually broke.The plastic cushion that it comes with fell apart after about a year.So the quality is not great, but for the price, it's hard to complain.I'll probably get another one when my daughter is old enough.

Want Euro II Grow With Me Chair Discount?



perfect chair for eating and doing homework at the dining room table. My 3 and 5 yr old use these chairs constantly and so far (5 months in) they've held up fine. I am from Germany and chairs such as these are very common there. I was very pleased to have found some at a reasonable price. It was easy to put the two chairs I bought together and they are sturdy enough. The cushion is a bit thin and covered in plastic that probably won't stand the test of time but the chair itself is great. Makes for much better posture for my little guys and less fidgeting at the table. Homework looks better now too :-)

Bachmann Santa Special HO Scale Ready To Run Electric Train Set

Bachmann Santa Special HO Scale Ready To Run Electric Train Set
  • Complete Set ? includes everything you need to build your own Railroad
  • Featuring Bachmann?s Easy to Assemble EZ Track
  • HO Scale ? 1:87 -- Conforms with NMRA (National Model Railroad Association) Standards

I purchased this item and just set this up in preparation for designing my Christmas village wanting to see how it would look. Of course, I just HAD to run it for a bit and so far, so good. Now, understand that this is NOT the highest of quality that you would receive for spending a lot more money, but for the price the quality is quite acceptable indeed.

That being said, I wish Bachmann would have included a picture of the track SOMEWHERE on their website. I purchased straight tracks to extend the layout a bit and looking at the limited pics available, I gambled it was the track with a grey surface. It is not, it has a BLACK surface. So if you need extenders, now you know.

That aside, it was a good purchase and I am satisfied with it.

This was purchased to entertain my 3 year old granddaughter under a small artificial Christmas Tree. Mission accomplished!I intended to configure it in a circle but the electrical contacts to the track are located on one of the two straight track pieces so the only way to put it together without modification is, as advertised, in the 38X47 inch oval. For the price, there is nothing "cheap" about the construction, it's just not heavy duty. I'm very happy with this purchase.

My son just got this train for Christmas. He is 5. While it may be difficult for him to set up alone it is a great way for some father/grandfather bonding. The detail is impressive on the trains. The track snaps together easily and functions well on uneven surfaces (no problem navigating my wrinkled tree skirt) the engines movement is well controlled. I was a little disappointed that I couldn't find the smoke solution in my packaging but that doesn't take away from the product. I have to play with it some more but believe it may be 5 star material. Definitely a good buy.

We got this train set as part of our new family tradition. We began setting this up each and every Christmas. The product itself is heavy duty although some parts are fragile. I would be careful with kids around as they may be able to break some of the smaller parts. Other then that, this will be in our family for many years to come.

Wheel of Fortune Board Game

Wheel of Fortune Board GameThis is great game... but it is not unlike the original Pressman Wheel of Fortune games from around 1985.It has updated colors and a new wheel, and is very fun for anyone who like Wheel of Fortune!



About every few years come a new edition of this game show standard. It's been around so long now, that the rights have gone back to Pressman who put out a decent version in the mid-80s. This basically mirrors that version in every way. Beyond the updated graphics, it's the same game.

There is nothing here that you don't already have in another version. But, if you don't already have it, it's a fun group game.

Butterfly 302 Shakehand Table Tennis Racket

Butterfly 302 Shakehand Table Tennis RacketI recently(re)started playing table tennis afterlong hiatus, and straightaway searched for butterfly rackets, since this is what we used when I was young. This particular one is well balanced for speed and spin, although it's neither the quickest nor the spinny-est, compared to some other higher quality (and price!) rackets I've used in the past. But as I said, it's well balanced, providing fairly high amount of speed, spin and control. Definitely glad it comes with the cover, since the sticky surfaces attract dust, reducing their spin.

This is not the best racket you can buy, but as a first or basic table tennis racket, it is 5* & highly recommended.

I have used this Racket for a few months now and I really like it. Its also very nice to have the cover for it also. One thing I would change is the handle if I could its a little thin and a little to sraight for my taist but its not a real big deal.

Before this I was using a stiga vantage paddle for the same price which i thought worked pretty well but when i started using this paddle, it was a big step up from the vantage because because the control with this paddle is amazing even at high speeds.The rubber is so tacky that the ball actually almost sticks to the paddle which allows for some extreme spin.The handle is also very comfortable and it even comes with a case that would originally be more than ten dollars.

Front Porch Classics Skittle Pool Pendulum Cue Skill Game

Front Porch Classics Skittle Pool Pendulum Cue Skill GameI did not purchase this through Amazon; it was through Back to Basics Toys. It was a Christmas gift for our 7 year old son. Granted the age on this toy is 5+, but our son is interested in regular pool, so we figured it would be neat to get this so he could get the idea of what it was all about. Yes, it's a fun game...if you can get through it without any pieces falling off and/or breaking! Just received our replacement Skittle Pool in the mail today and, already, it is broken. It truly is a piece of garbage as far as quality goes. It's all plastic...the "A" frames (two are included) are warped, making for total inaccuracy when "shooting" the cue ball. The plastic piece that sticks up out of the swivel arm (which a stationery cue ball sort of gets inserted on) snapped off ~ one of the reasons we needed a replacement game...and then one snapped off the replacement!! For the price, I would think they could invest a little bit more money and make this game a bit more sturdy.



Table under felt is plastic, not wood and therefore not very flat.This is mitigated by the fact that the balls don't have to travel far, but obviously a flat surface is the most important quality aspect of this game.

The swivel "aimers" are not constructed with precision.One is very tight and sticky, which is very annoying, and the other loose, which is less annoying.

Still my 4yo is having decent fun and probably improving his coordination.

Tile Lock Scrabble

Tile Lock ScrabbleI know that my love for the game of scrabble may be jading my true opinion of this product. This is my very first scrabble board game. It was a wonderful "just because I love you" gift from my husband. This is not the board that I would have chosen but I don't think he knew which one to get. He thought that it would be nice because the tiles are supposed to stay in place. Well I have no idea why the call it tile lock because the tiles don't lock. In fact they can move around quite a bit. Plus the board does it cheaply made. If you want a cheaper Scrabble board then this one will do. But I would recommend spending a little more and getting one that folds up or one with the original wooden tiles.

The name is misleading, the tiles do not actually lock in the board and the entire set is made of cheap plastic, with the bonus spaces on the board simply being stickers. We got this thinking the tiles locked so our cats wouldn't spill it, but they're still able to. We regret not purchasing the platinum scrabble board instead which looked much nicer and simply had inset spaces. If you want a travel set, just get the travel set, and if you want something non-spill that you'll be spending a lot of time playing, just get the platinum board instead.

The game is a nice size for travel and the little plastic tiles can be wiped off in the event of the inevitable spills.However, the tiles do not truly lock together so a child bumping into the table does result in everything going galley west.Otherwise it is just like ordinary Scrabble.

I purchased this item along with 2 other toys. Unfortunately this is the only item I am dissappointed with from the purchase. The picture definitely makes it look better than it truly is. The concept of the locking tiles sounds like a good idea, but the tiles are hard to place on the board as they tend to flip and not fit well. You have to struggle to get the word on the board and heaven forbid if you have to lift a letter to see what score box you are on all of the adjoining letters will flip out needless to say it takes the fun out of it. We had a set that had wooden tiles for 27 years and ended up losing letters (and some of the letters were so worn that they were partially deteriorated). That is what prompted me to seek out this one but it is very low quality and it is on its way to the dumpster.

Butterfly TR26B Playback Rollaway Table Tennis Table (Blue)

Butterfly TR26B Playback Rollaway Table Tennis TableFor some reason I thought I was getting a 3/4" wood top table, but was a little surprised to get some sort of plastic top. Apparently this is an outdoor table. With several young children I decided that it wasn't all bad especially since I was 2 hours into a 3 hour assembly process. There isn't quite the same soft tapping there is with a wood table, but it is considerably lighter and cups left on the table won't raise wood rings.

The undercarriage is as solid as I can imagine a 190 lb. table can provide, but the table sways when 5-year old children lean against it. While I wouldn't want to repeat the assembly process, the end result was worth it and our whole family played (or began learning to play). The paddle and ball holders in the center are really handy.

We just got this table from another vendor and finished assembling it today.It was actually the second table we received, because the first was damaged in shipping.This one arrived in perfect shape, and we lost no time unpacking it and diving into the assembly process.First of all, it's a very heavy table--around 190 lbs., at least in the box--and they aren't kidding when they say you need two (strong) people to assemble it.From start to finish, including about 20 minutes I spent on the Internet trying to clarify a particular step in the instructions, I estimate it took 8 hours to assemble.If you're like me, you probably don't have two 10mm and two 19mm wrenches on hand.I used our two (large) adjustable wrenches for most of the assembly process, and that was a mistake.Do yourself a favor and go buy at least the two 10mm ones (small, if possible)--which are used for almost everything--at a hardware or home improvement store.I finally ended up getting a couple of them for about $13 total--well worth the money.Had I had them at the beginning, I probably would have saved two hours of assembly time.Next, the assembly instructions, though complicated, are fairly good--if you're used to assembling complex pieces from IKEA or other stores, you should be able to deal with this.But you have to be careful--there are more than 200 pieces (yes, 200), and some of the drawings are quite subtle.The one place you have to be especially careful is the very first step ("A"), when you position the two end pieces (piece number "8") as you're building the supporting structure.These can either face one way or the other, and the drawing isn't clear.I couldn't find the answer on line either, even by looking at zoomed-in photos of the table.If you make a mistake here, you'll end up having to spend a huge amount of time taking things apart again and redoing them.Basically, the two smooth sides of the crossbar should face out, not in toward the center; the "open" crossbar sides should face inward.If you look closely at the drawing, you'll see that that's what the manufacturer tried to indicate, but a few words (rather than just hieroglyphics) would have helped.There are a few other places in the manual where you'll have to use common sense, but they're not too tricky.Again, just proceed very slowly and carefully.When it comes time to lift the table tops into the supporting structure, it really, really helps to have a third person--even a kid.The picture shows two people holding one table top with one hand each, using the other hand to insert the bolts that will support the top, but you try holding a huge 80-90 lb. table half with one hand!Not realistic.Anyway, to make a long story short, we finally finished assembling the table, and it looks great and seems to work very well.I'll update this if I have anything new to report after we've used it a while.In the meantime, just remember:get two cheap (and small) 10mm wrenches, go slowly, and make sure you have at least two strong people!

The frame on this table is sturdy, but the blue top is not synthetic. It is just pressboard with a thin veneer glued on top. It would not do well in outdoor conditions, as is stated in the product description.

Medium Diva Table and Stool

KidKraft Medium Diva Table & StoolThe vanity set was easy to assemble.Perfect for little girls who enjoy dressing up.I prefer this set over the cheaper plastic sets.I expect durability.Affordable price.

My 4-year-old granddaughter could not stop smiling when she saw this vanity set. She loves it and plays with it every single day. The two little shelves are perfect for nail polish. The center drawer holds all the lip gloss and brushes any little princess could want. It is solid and big enough to also entertain 7-8-year-olds. I highly recommend this for all the little Diva's out there!

We bought this for our 5 year old daughter and she loves it! It is sturdy and very well made! Kid Kraft is also an awesome company to deal with. Our table top and mirror came scratched because there were screws that had fallen inside the box. I called them up and they said they would send out all the new parts I needed...No questions asked! overall, great toy for little girls!

When we were looking for these types of furniture for my daughter, we were not so sure about spending a lot of money since we do move often and things usually don't survive the move.So we looked for something within our price range but figured it wouldn't be really sturdy.Surprisingly, this one is quite sturdy for the price.It is made of compressed woods but the little support pieces here and there are solid wood and the white paint finish is nice, and the legs for the stool is angled out so it doesn't topple over easily.the mirror is plexy glass so it has slightly warped effect when you look at it, but it's good enough for my daughter (1.5 yr old).She loves to sit on it and comb her hair and put all her hair stuff in the drawer.The drawer is built so that it doesn't just fall out and drop on the floor whoever designed this actually put some thought into it.

Overall, I am very satisfied with this purchase.Being white color also makes it easy to change colors if I ever wanted to paint it or something.I anticipate that my daughter will be able to use this at least till 4 year old without a problem, not sure how tall she'd be, so I'm not sure if she can use it past four years old or not yet.

Shipping was pretty fast, it arrived within a week of ordering and we don't live in 48 continental U.S., so that was pretty fast.

Perfect for my 5-year-old, and it will be good for a few years to come.The drawer is a nice size for her make-up and other dress up items.The mirror is a safety mirror, but gives an accurate reflection!I was concerned that it would distort reflections.The stool is very sturdy. This is well made and great for the price. Super happy mom and kiddo!

Stress Buster

Stress BusterI hesitated at first. I mean, would it really stay on the table when hit? However, not one coworker has been able to knock it off (after it is stuck on). If I take a whack at it on Monday morning after its been sitting all weekend, that's a different story. It really needs to be re-stuck every once and a while. It feels great, made well, and takes a beating.

The stress buster was a great hit with the girls at work, this should be a standard item on everyones desk. The only improvment the girls would like to see is a spot on the punching bag to hold a special picture of someone or thing causing the stress!

the punch ball is nice, if the valve holds up. The valve broke during first use. inserted the delivered pump and this damaged the valve. it does not hold air for 1 minute. useless

I got this as a way for my mom and I to de-stress from work. It's awesome. It comes with a pump and instructions, so it is easy to assemble. And the best part is that because of the suction cup base, you can hit it pretty hard and it won't knock over.

I got this for my boyfriend and he got such a kick out of it but the only thing was that when you inflate, it can deflate even though you don't hit it. Other then that, it was fun gift!
