My wife and I bought this train table for our son last Christmas.  He had recently begun an obsession with Thomas the Tank Engine trains, and when we recovered from the sticker shock on the Thomas products, we decided to look for something more affordable.  They are only wooden tracks, after all!Actually, I was planning on getting him some train track sets to put together, but my wife...

This is a great video for any little train lovers in your family! It shows LOTS of great videos of all kinds of trains. The only thing I kinda hoped for in the video was commentary. It would be nice to have some "learning" or info about what you are watching.That said, it's also nice to not have cheesy background music and commentary. My 3yr old son ADORES this video and has no co...

I started using the Pampers Feel 'n Learn training pants when I started potty training my daughter.  These training pants are just like regular pull-ups, with the main difference being that they have a liner that gets cool when it gets wet.  This is supposed to be uncomfortable for the child so that they dislike going potty in their pants.  This did not work for my daughter.&...

Unfortunatly there are a lot of stray cats in my neighborhood.  They don't bother me except when they pee on our doors.  Summertime is here so we leave our doors open to get some air.  I have two cats of my own and they love sitting at the door to look outside.  Well, the outdoor strays see them then decide to spray on our door to mark their territory.  Now if you&#...

We got this for our son as a gift for his first birthday. We were orginally looking for a set of blocks and came across the Imaginarium Lights and Sound Train. This toy has 22 pieces-in a variety of shapes and colors, some of the blocks even have patterns All of the pieces are wooden. There are 3 base train cars, each has wooden "pegs" and the blocks have holes in them to fit the...

I purchased these training pants when I was working with a budget. I found that not only was I satisfied that I was paying about half the cost of leading brands I was also getting the same quality. My daughter is 3 years old, and although she wears underwear during the daytime when she is at home and at her sitters, we still have her wear training pants when we go out in public, when she takes ...

The peek-a-blocks:Press and go train, is a great toy for little ones all the way up to older toddler ages!  I bought this for my son when he was just a year old.  He didn't play much with the entire train, but just the blocks or he would push the button to make the music and lights come on!  Now almost three he loves to push the train around the house and turn the lights and ...

This Press & Go Train is part of the Peek-a-Blocks series from Fisher Price. My daughter loves trains and has had tons of fun playing with this cool train! When she was a baby, she enjoyed crawling after the train. There are three train cars that attach together and when you press the top of the train, it moves along while playing tunes. Five circus themed Peek-a-Blocks are included: monkey...

My toddler loves Duplo blocks and Thomas the Train, so when we found this toy we thought it'd be perfect for her.  Plus, it not only comes with Thomas the Train, it has the tracks and the train station set up.  At 19 months old, my daughter is too young to build this herself so I did it.  It was very easy to put together.  The instructions included definitely helps becau...

The Goodnights Training Pants are geared toward children who are on the brink of potty training but still need a little help at night. The product is offered in many sizes and is rather inexpensive for such a catered product. The style is clearly for older children, with the largest size offering soccer players. The Goodnights Training Pants do a great job at covering any accidents during the ...

My three year old son is a major Thomas the Train fan.  Everytime he see's a new Thomas the Train set at the store he has to have it.  When we brought the Thomas the Train - Water Tower Steam Set our son opened it immediately and wanted us to help him put the track together.  The directions that come with the set are really simple to follow.  The train tracks are blue in...

My youngest son is a huge Thomas the Train fan.  Any new accessory that comes out he has to have it.  For his third birthday he receive the Sodor Engine Wash Motorized Road and Rail Accessory.  He can attach the Engine Wash to any Tomy rail or road set.  Our son attached it to his blue Thomas the Train rail tracks. The Engine Wash does not require batteries. When one of the ...

The best thing about this video is that it tells you what to do every day.  The DVD contains a lot of different little segments -- two 13-minute aerobics sessions, one 10-minute full-body strength training session, several 5-minute toning sessions focusing on specific body parts, and a warm up and cool down.What you do is select your goal -- losing weight, or being healthy or toning, etc -...

I wrote about these pads in a previous review on dog food. This is a product that has ingredients in it that attracts your dogs to it, making them want to use the bathroom on it. Training puppies has never been easier, I found that if you wipe up their urine with a pad then keep the pad in the same spot, keep placing the puppy on the pad they will eventually get it and go to the pad to urinate ...

When we were at Legoland (great place for small children, by the way), my parents told my son he could pick out a set of Lego's.  He decided upon a train set as he really likes his "choo-choo's".  It was a toss-up between a Thomas train set and the non-Thomas set, and we decided on the non-Thomas one.What a great decision we made!  His cousin ended up with the T...

This product was so easy to do.  IT came in a kit with the a paint by numbers wall mural.  You simply tape up the paper with carbon paper attached and trace the design.  You then remove the paper and paint in each area with the recommended color.  This looks like a professional artist painted a mural in your childs room for a fraction of the cost.  HIGHLY RECOMENDED ! Y...

One of the most annoying sounds in the world to me is a barking dog. I don't mean a dog barking at a stranger or a dog barking at another dog passing the yard. I mean a dog that barks almost constantly for no apparent reason. My former neighbor had such a dog. Bark, bark, bark, all day and all night. So when I saw this pet training device in a catalog I ordered one. This device is about the...

If you have ever had a new puppy in your home, this is probably one of the most valuable items you could ever purchase.It is a liquid proof pad, that has an attractant in it that draws the puppies to it, hopefully making them want to go on it. These pads are 21.5" X 23.5" and they absorb quite a bit of fluids and are almost leak proof. They also help to control odors, which is a huge ...

If you're into trains and railroading, then you will love this game. I got it for Christmas about two years ago and have been addicted to it since. Learning to control the train is a very easy process, and once you get good at operating all three types of locomotives (Diesel, Electric, and Steam), you'll enjoy running trains on routes like the Orient Express Line in Austria, the Settle ...
