LeapPad Game - Mind Wars Jr. Interactive Game

Customer Review:

Wonderful way to play and learn!

I gave this to my 6 year old on her "gotcha day" and she plays with it daily. She prefers to play with me and not alone, but it's a great game. Next year I'm likely to go the next level for her. I highly recommend this as a great game!

They Can Play Alone

My children (4 & 6)love this game. It is great because no reading is necessary. The game asks the questions and even repeats them when necessary. While my kids don't know all the topics covered they enjoy the game. The fact that the game makes sure they move the correct number of spaces is great too. I definitely recommend this game and I will probably buy the next level of it.

What a wonderful product!!!

We bought this for my 6 yr old daughter who will be starting 1st grade in the fall and she loves it, whether she plays by herself or she challenges someone, it's GREAT, I'd recommend it to everyone.

Only 1 bad thing, when you have the leap pade storage case, there's really not a place to keep this, so we've ended up keeping box (which is very slim) to keep it in.

Customer Review:

fun for baby

My son really enjoys this toy. I wish I bought it when he was younger - right around the time when he started grasping toys. I like the concept that it smells like a green apple, but the smell is a bit odd. Still, I really like this toy.

My five month old is in love with this toy.

We just recently took our five month old on his first airplane trip. Five hours across country. The cube kept him busy for a lot of that time. I love that there are a lot of places for his little fingers to grab on to. Some of the other soft toys as cute as they are, they are just too hard for little fingers to keep a hold of. There are so many different sides that he does not get too bored with it too quickly. I love that he can hold it himself and get the little rings into his mouth. Anything that can keep a five months old's attention longer than 10 minutes definetly gets a big thumbs up from mom!

Fun squared

This is a great item. There are many handles to hold and rings and things to chew. And it smells good too!

Customer Review:

TOO CUTE!!!

I bought this item for my one year old son for Christmas. It was a great hit! I will admit, though, that we couldn't get the bubble blower to work at first, but then I had an epiphany that maybe the thing needed a NEW battery.....and EUREKA!!! IT WAS A BUBBLE-FEST IN MY HOUSE FROM THEN ON! The record/play back feature is also very amusing for little ones. My son was a late walker, and I give full credit to this toy in encouraging him to get up and push/walk with it. Heaven knows we tried EVERYTHING else to try to get him to walk!! We even had a TONKA truck version of this ride-on already in the house, but he never seemed interested in that. The Disney character voices are quite recognizable as those little fingers are pushing those buttons on the dashboard! I definitely believe that ride-on toys are helpful in giving newly-walking toddlers the confidence they need to take those first steps unassisted. After purchasing this product, my son started walking unassisted within two weeks! The reason I am only giving 4 stars for durability is that the bubble solution spills out when the kids tip the car over!! NOT FUN TO CLEAN UP, but I still think that the bubble-blowing feature makes this product stand out from the others!! ALSO-- I have found that bubble MACHINE solution refills (that you can buy at Wal-Mart) works MUCH BETTER than regular bubble solution. Hope you enjoy this product as much as my kids do! My 4 year old loves it as well (and so does the dog!)

Best Ride-on We Ever Purchased!

This toy is amazing! We got it for my son at about 8 months, and he is now 18 months, and has played with it EVERY day since receiving it! It's got tons of buttons with lights, sounds, and music, plus a bubble blowing machine! It has a compartment to hide stuff in under the seat, and best of all, it has a microphone that you can record a message on! The kids can have endless hours of fun recording their voice and playing it back! Even his 6 year old sister plays with it!
A+++ toy!

Spy Safe Cracker

Safe cracking always seems pretty exciting when depicted in thrilling spy movies. The thief must listen closely, have nimble hands, and often work against a tight time constraint to pull off the big heist. Now that action is replicated in toy form with this unique safe cracking kit. Three different challenges are presented: connecting pretend circuits with a special included stylus, spotting secret numbers in a sequence to determine the right combinations, and matching certain sounds to defeat the lock. In our informal tests, all three challenges worked well and were tricky without being impossible. Parents may wish to consider the philosophical implications of a toy that teaches kids how to commit felonies but even youngsters who are not preparing for a life of crime are likely to be entertained and challenged by this set. --Charlie Williams

re: Life of Crime... NOT!!!!!

no offense LISA, AN 8 YEAR OLD IS NOT I REPEAT NOT GOING TO LEAD A 'LIFE OF CRIME' IF THEY HAVE THIS TOY...ITS A TOY(AS IN) NOT REAL [ONCE AGAIN] NOT REAL! HOW MANY SAFES DO YOU OF THAT HAVE A TONE MATCH AND A LASER MAZE THINGY?!?!?!?! ANYWAYS REAL SAFES ARE A CRAP OF A LOT HARDER (if you don't know what i'm talking about...FYI I mean the safes at FNB and other banks and what not)TO OPEN SO CHILL OUT!!!! I'M ALSO SUPRISED THAT YOU SAID(AND I QUOTE)"Your organization should be ashamed for even carrying an item like this" I think the toy is great i have one i know. also a kids' future is up to them, if they do not want to have criminal record at age 10 good,but if they out and do as you say... not have a good future thats their fault. my(famous) last words are CHILL OUT WOULD YA'!!

safecracker

this toy is awsome!! the only little problem is that with mine you have to tilt it a little for the safe to open. otherwise its really,really cool. there is nothing wrong with it. you should get one

P.S. no need to pry it open if it won't open with the "1" button, under the front bottom holder thingy there's a button to manualy open it DUH!& Shhhhhh!!!

spysafecracker

I got this Spy Safe Cracker as a present. I had a lot of fun with it at first. But one day I turned it on. The sound wasn't working. I turned the sound to level 3. But that didn't work either. So, I just typed in my password. I got to the main menu and pressed open safe. The safe wouldn't open so I had to pry it open. This is very annoying. I can't believe it!
