great toy

2008-07-28
I love the colors and patterns in this toy. The pins and ball are all very beautiful. The toy is very durable, easy to set up, and not to bulky to store. My daughter is 17 months and she will play with this for a little while, and she also likes when we set it up and help her roll the ball... it is a very nice toy.

Good Beginner Bowling Set

2008-05-23
I bought this bowling set for my 2 year old since he likes to knock things down but he is not interested in it yet. However, I think the set is very durable, lightweight and fun to play with. The only downfall is that the dogs think it is their toy!

Best gift for baby showers, etc

2008-05-12
I have purchased this toy for several baby showers. Everybody loves it, they end up purchasing as a gift for others. It is always popular. The animals have numbers on them - so it's educational and the ball makes a jingling sound when you roll it.

The Kids Enjoyed it BUT...

2008-03-09
My children really enjoyed this toy but I really didn't think it was all that great. The only thing they enjoyed about it was the ball. They threw it around a lot.

I couldn't get the animals to stand up right, EVER. It is not educational besides the pins are animals. Since the pins don't stand up though the kids don't really pay attention to them.

I ended up giving this toy away to someone who had a baby. I thought maybe it would be better for a baby who is learning how to hold things since the game part just doesn't work.

Bowl down the barnyard

These bowling pins are a great way to run and play inside with your young ones! The ball even makes a fun noise when you throw it!

Pretty good toy

18 months&up. Let's roll the ball and knock down the six numbered soft barnyard friends! They make all kinds of rattle sounds and have flat bases for easy standing. Great for building eye- hand coordination and gross motor skills.

Great for Toddlers

I bought this set for my 3 year old niece, and she loves it! She screamed with excitment after opening the box! She's been playing with it since, and is even practicing trying to count them! I recommend it.

Great for toddlers and preschoolers

Its so nice to have a product that isn't made of plastic that the children will love and enjoy over time.

Baby Farm Friends Bowling

When I first purchased this product my daughter had just turned a year. At first, she was not interested in knocking down the animals with the ball, she just wanted to eat and kiss them, and carry them around. The first few months were teaching her what the animals were by singing Old MacDonald, and doing a counting game whilst I set up the pins. My daughter is now 14 months. She loves to watch me set up the pins and knock them down. She thinks it is the funniest thing ever. She is learning herself to roll the ball and knock the pins down. I like the little bag that it comes in for easy storage. I am planing to buy this toy for a gift!!.

My granddaughter is 19 months old. She has fun playing with this game. It is durable. Also she is learning her numbers which is on the front of each pin. A versatile game.

	Dora the Explorer Mr. Face Plush Backpack Review: My daughter is a big Dora fan and uses this backpack to carry around her favorite toys and books, which is why I gave it 5 stars for educational value. My friend's daughter has it as well, and love hers too. We've had it 6 months now and it's holding up just fine. The map opens up for an added bonus. My daughter likes to wear it and sing the backpack song from the show.
	Star Wars Episode III: Darth Vader Voice Changer Helmet Wow, do I ever wish they had this out when I was a kid! I bought it, and my wife, kids and I have all been playing with it. It has a chest box with several buttons that plays about 5 of Darth's quotes from the movies, or you can switch it to voice changer. The voice changer is fun! It has 3 different levels of depth for changing the voice. ... A must for Star Wars Geeks!!!!
