Pretend Play Reviews

I bought this for my 3 yr old daughter and it was a big hit. Well worth the money!

My daughter loves this cd player. She is 3 and she can get the cds in and out. THey have 2 princess songs on each and than 4 other familiar songs. They do not sing the words but trust me the music is catchy and you will know the words. If your daughter loves music and princesses this toy is perfect!!!!

My 3 year old loves this toy. It is not a real cd player, but she thinks it is! It comes with three tiny cd's with Disney songs and other well known kids songs on them. Lots of fun. Good value.

My 2 1/2 year old loves this dress up trunk. I think it is very educational because it teaches a young child to dress themselves and it improves self-esteem. My daughter loves to put all the pieces on and look in the mirror. She looks adorable with everything on. This is one of her favorite toys and I would recommend this to any parent with a 2 or 3 year old daughter. I have not had a problem with the durability of the pieces or the trunk. Everything seems to be holding up just fine, even with a baby it the house! But you do need to watch out for choking hazards if you have small children around.

This toy was a Christmas present for my daughter, and it was one of the biggest hits for her. Both my 5 yo and my 2 yo are always getting the dress up clothes out and parading around the house. The biggest gripe is that the cardboard chest pretty much gets destroyed after a month or so, and we got to listen to them cry when it went in the trash. Fix the chest, and it gets an A+.

I bought this for my 2-3/4 year old as she was starting to get into dress up stuff. The kit has lots of pieces to make about a dozen different outfits, plus has the nice storage trunk included. However my girl only uses 4 or 5 of the pieces and says the other items are scratchy (i.e. sequins etc.) I think that for a girl a bit older that really is into dress-up, this would be a great gift. For those that are younger or just starting to show interest, you should buy one of those smaller starter sets that have just one outfit and cost only about $10 or so.

My 4-year old daughter got this 8 months ago and it is a winner. The two compartments, many doors, storage areas and folding fence give her all she needs to make her space for her many horses and other animals. It gets used every day and nothing has broken.

This play barn is exactly what I was looking for for my 4 year old son who is a Horse enthusiast. It is much bigger than I expected, beautiful, and has lots of opening doors and gates. It also comes with a fence that folds up and stores neatly in the barn. This barn is big enough for Breyer horses, and has an a swing out side. It was a great purchase and highly recommended.

Just got this item today and I am impressed with it's compatibility for various sizes of toy horses. I especially love the fact that it can be folded up to a smaller size to be tucked into a closet when needed.

This barn has multiple doors that open-some slide and other's are dutch doors. We do have another barn of this type that has the dutch doors and the hinge's fell apart right away. I am hoping this one will be better since the doors do seem to open and close more smoothly on this particular barn...but need to stress that the kids need to be somewhat 'gentle' with these dutch doors so they don't break the hinges. The manufacturer really should attach them with metal hinges and they would last alot longer.

Overall...I feel my kids are going to get alot of enjoyment out of this barn.

My daughter loves puppets and loves things that rattle, so this is a great combination. We named him Shakey the Giraffe. He is cuddly and has great colors.

My son was 4 months when purchased and he liked it but after a few times of seeing it he would no longer giggle etc. He is now 9 months old and goes for the blocks,stacking cups. It just sits in the toy box. Hopefully he will find interest in it again. The toy is alittle aquard to put hand in and manuever it as my had is quite little.

My niece will stop what she's doing every time I pick this toy up. She loves to give the giraffe kisses and "steal" it from me to hug! The toy is durable and colorful, not to mention adorable!

Thank You to the previous reviewer!
As duly noted, there are indeed 3 different quality versions of the this amazing costume!!!
Amazon has been lucky enough to provide us access to the highest quality version of the 3 costumes which are HARD to find!!!
There are 3 quality versions per character = 9 costumes available altogether.
If you love the sleek, sexiness of the film and can picture yourself as a NEO or TRINITY and would like to feel the erotic material against your skin - then you can't go past this!!!

This costume is the super deluxe version of the Neo costume. It is NOT the same as the ones for $29.99 that the reviewer mentioned. If you don't want to pay $199.99 that's understandable, but other customers should not be misled that the ones for $29.99 are the same as this one. This costume looks very cool and professional, the normal ones look like the costumes you find at target (ie. cheap).

The Matrix is my favorite movie of all time that is not James Bond so I just want to let you know that I am not "dissing" this item. I have not bought or tried on this costume but I think it is an awesome idea to make Matrix costumes. The worst thing about this is the price. I was considering buying one of these costumes off of amazon.com-that was until I saw the price. Who wants to spend that much money on a halloween costume? I know I don't. There are better things to spend my money on. So, I comparison shopped on the net and found the exact same costume, a Trinity, a Neo, and a Morpheus all from $25-$35. The exact same costume. I was using the wonderful Google Search Engine when I came across a website that had it for a way better price. I won't tell you the name of it because I don't advertise for companies/websites. I am just telling you to search for halloween costumes on Google if you want to keep your hard-earned money.

I bought this last year for Christmas and my girls use it virtually every day. They have put on puppet productions, used it as a lemonade stand, a club house, a shop and a thousand other uses. As you can see, it is extemely colorful and surprizingly durable. This was money well spent. I highly recommend it.

This is a great puppet theater, sound stage, restaurant, play house, etc... My daughter was 4 when she received this from Santa. He only wished he had found it sooner! My daughter continues to love it, and will now be sharing it with her younger sister. Many hours of pretend have been spent inside and outside this theater. We especially love it because it is large enough inside for two or more children. All the others we researched were too small for our needs. The colors are so vibrant and fun, we get tons of compliments from all our company. All the kids gravitate towards it!

This playhouse theater is an excellent way to spark your child's imagination. My son received this as a Christmas gift last year and it has not only been a theater, but a house, cave, secret hideout, restaurant, and schoolhouse. Very colorful and the front chalkboard is excellent for strenghtening writing skills! The only downside I have with the theater is that it is not very durable. The theater is made of some sort of flimsy plywood and it is not secured with screws, etc. It slides together and a child can easily disassemble it. The front panel that the child rest's his/her arms on broke after two weeks of having the theater. Other than the durability factor...great product!

We gave this to our six year old daughter last Christmas and she has played with it all year. Yes, it requires a one-time set-up, but the instructions are straight forward. I did pause over the price, but I'm really glad we bought it: its been played with all year. I love the Playmobil toys because there is so much room for imaginative play. Our daughter and a friend played with this toy for over an hour today!

Because this toy comes in a "kit" form, i.e., has to be assembled, my son and I had a great time not only playing with it but putting it together! He is totally enthralled with all the parts and pieces, and the price is reflected in the amazing attention to detail. It's a great gift and I will definitely be purchasing other playmobil toys. (Keep in mind, with lots of small pieces, it's not the best toy if you have young toddlers)

I had no idea this toy had to be built. I was very disappointed about this. That was the last thing I wanted to do on christmas morning and the day after, was to be building this farm. It's ingeniously made, alot of detail, and really cute. My kids have fun with it. It's alot smaller than I thought it would be too. For that price, I thought it would be alot bigger; more substantial. Don't think I'd ever buy another set.

This package is small and comes with only 6-10 tricks

I recently got this kit, and it is very good quality, and for the most part easy to learn, and impressive tricks. The only bad thing I can say about it is that it only comes with about 5 tricks, unless you count the ability to do a bunch of different card tricks. Over all, a great product though.

This a beautifully presented mini attache case with really cool tricks. Within a few minutes my boys learned to make money appear and perform some truly impressive magic tricks. My nephews particularly enjoyed the card tricks and the quality of the props is as good as Ive seen. It has got them hooked on magic and the instructions are well written and easy to follow.
