#Surprisingly good fun for kids (2009-04-17) I have always been a bit wary of Edutainment. I remember early computer games when I was a child which were the worst of all worlds. The Leapster range have alleviated that to a very large extent. My little one regularly plays Spongebob and Dora for fun, without being aware of how many basic skills she is learning at the same time. I think what I am trying to say is that the learning aspect isn t rammed down a child s throat at the expense of any fun. With the Draw and Write title, I wasn t so sure, and put off buying it in favour of the m...

#Brilliant entertainment for 5 year old (2009-01-27) My 5 year old son is really enjoying this game. He can trace numbers and upper or lower case letters after being shown how first, which ties in with his first year of full time school brilliantly. The game also teaches how to draw certain pictures including animations such as making it snow. You can do colouring which will teach your child about mixing colours. There is even an option to make a flick book. To be honest, this is worth the money just for the writing practice it gives - the other stuff makes it a must have for an...

#So good I had to buy 2 (2008-08-13) I originally bought this for one of my twin sons and they fought over it so much that I had to buy another. They both love it and there are no more fights.

#This is a must for all Leapster owners! (2008-02-19) My 5 year old son received this game for Christmas and still thoroughly enjoys playing on it. He doesn t realise that he s learning! He particularly enjoys tracing the shapes and then making the lines disappear to see how well he has done. There are easy-hard mazes to follow with the pen and pictures to colour. All in all a really great and educational game for both boys and girls who like to draw, colour or write!

#great software (2005-11-08) My 5 year old daughter loves the Draw & Learn software for Leapster, especially the colour-in feature. It is really useful for long car journeys (can be seen in the dark & no lost pencils)! There are various activities that promote pencil control (e. g. a maze game) and letter formation is also covered (good for younger users). Very happy with it!

Learning is just a click away with the Baby Laptop! 9 chunky push buttons interact with the light-up screen to teach early learning concepts in a fun and engaging way. 3 interactive modes of play keep the fun going for longer, teaching objects, sound effects and shapes. The 8-way directional click-tick mouse and buttons help to develop fine motor skills as well as introducing early computer skills. Encourages language development, verbal imitation and exploration.

#Very Musical (2009-06-01) I bought this for our son when he was ten months old. He picked it out himself at a store. Since he likes to mimic me, he uses it whenever he sees me using my computer (he has a desk of his own next to mine). It has three modes: music, sounds/speaking, and shapes/words. There are nine songs in the music mode. My son is three now, and he still loves using this laptop to listen to the songs, and sing along.

#good stuff (2009-05-10) Brilliant learning toy. I bought this for my 9 months old doughteh. She is only beginning to explore the possibilies of that toy but I can already see she is going to enjoy it more and more. A lot of lights, shapes, sounds. Really good.

#VTech baby laptop (2009-02-11) My little girl loves playing with this the bright lights and music help her. She often sits and dances to the songs. I think as she gets older this toy will help her lean.

#v tech baby s laptop (2009-02-02) Amazing service. Did not have to wait long until it was received. It was very warmly received. Thank you.

#Not very exciting - child not very interested (2009-01-21) Bought this for my (just) two year old for christmas. Thought he d like it as he loves pressing buttons & switches etc. I have to admit it didn t look very exciting to me but I m not a two year old! I can honestly say he s hardly touched it since christmas and nor have any of the other children that I childmind.

A fun food game for all the family! Try to put together an edible meal on the place setting, but beware of the creepy crawlies that will cause a tummy ache! Award winning game for 2-4 players. Links with Early Learning Goals in Personal, Social and Emotional Development, and Communication, Language and Literacy

#Orchard Toys are the Best (2009-06-13) My oldest son received his first Orchard Toy game two years ago for his 4th birthday. We loved it so much that we have purchased many more since and regularly give them for gifts. Tummy Ache is no exception. The game pieces are sturdy and colorful. And, the game itself teaches the importance of eating healthy foods versus junk foods in a fun way.

#A bit disappointing (2009-04-16) Having bought Orchard Toys products before and been really impressed, I was very disappointed with this game. My 3 year old twin girls like it but don t seem to get the point of the game and I have to agree. I thought it would teach the value of healthy food versus junk, the object being to create a tasty meal but it simply had food cards with insects on that create a tummy ache and others with a variety of foods that are ok. Its colourful, well presented and a bit of silliness I suppose but not a classic.

#Tummy Ache (2009-04-10) Great fun. Quick & easy to play. My 4 & 10 year old girls love it. Requires mainly good luck but a little skill can be used when choosing to select a new card or to take one discarded by previous player. Does not take long so no time for boredom to set in. Lightweight & easy to pack for trips away.

#Orchard Toys do it again (2009-01-02) You can pretty much buy anything in the Orchard Toys range with your eyes closed and know that it ll be a hit. All together now: Tummy Ache, Tummy Ache !

#Fast and Fun (2008-10-27) I ve just created a Listmania list of the 10 best games my 3 children have and this is definitely a must have purchase for age 3-7. It is excellent value for money and great fun. This game is ideal for very young children as it is a very simple introduction to board games. It s much easier than similar board games (like the excellent washing line game, pop to the shops etc) but still has a huge fun factor. It is also a quick game so children don t lose attention. There are also no small pieces like dice or counters to struggle with. You take a board each...

#kidizoom (2009-03-15) Fun from the start, unfortunately after 24 hours it stopped working. However I returned the item to VTECH and within 48 hours had a new replacement - one very satisfied customer

#Good value fun (2009-02-26) Bought 2 cameras for the local pre-school, and they have been a big hit. The kids find it easy to learn how to use them, and have great fun adding extras to their pictures. The camouflage camera seems better value than the blue or pink as it comes with a bag to put it in.

#February 2009 (2009-02-24) Fantastic fun toy for children aged 4 to 8. Very easy to use. Very durable. Many other reviews I read talked of poor quality photos. Whilst I have not tried printing any yet, the photos are perfectly adequate for children.

#fantastic (2009-02-16) i bought this for my son 5 th birthday and he loves it. It is very easy to use and straight forward. My daughter who is two is able to use it as well. I am very happy with it and would recomened it .

#fabulous christmas present (2009-02-10) I bought 2 of these for a Christmas present for my 4 year old twins. They both had so much fun over Christmas taking pictures of all their presents and the rest of the house and family! Still having a lot of fun now even the batteries last a long time. Played with the games as well as do a short video. Good learning toy and so much fun! Would recommend it - keeps them both amused for a long time
