Bath time is never boring with Octopals. This interactive, floating bath island toy is great for toddlers who want to have fun in the tub and learn something too. Features a mummy octopus that acts as a sieve and pouring cup, and her 8 little babies that

#Great Fun (2009-06-26) I bought this item even before my baby was born based on the reviews and the pictures. from the moment my daughter started to recognise objects she simply loved these baby octopus,and she always has to have at least one with her, either to play in the bath or when going to sleep. They dry very well, and after 16months of use, they are still impeccable. The only slight picky criticism is that they don t stick very well to the walls. But overall, very sweet and fun toy!

#Good Fun (2009-05-26) My 15 month old loves these. He s not really bothered about the tray but loves to throw the octopals across the bathroom. . . . I stick them all down the side of the bath and he loves to bash them off. I d definitely recommend these.

#fantastic fun! (2009-04-28) My daughter loves these and at 10 months is kept busy just chasing them round the bath and pulling them off the tiles when they are stuck on! The central orange chappy can be used as a kind of shower which she absolutely loves but she isnt overly impressed with being squirted but loves doing the squirting!As per previous posts make sure that they are empty at the end of play time to prevent mould build up (same as all bath toys really).

#Fabulous toy... (2008-10-13) . . . but not if you live in a hard water area. My daughter loved these after they were given as a present. However, despite trying really hard to get all of the water out after every use, and storing them so they could drain, they gradually turned black with limescale and mildew, and even squirted out little black bits. We ve sadly had to throw them out as we simply could not get them clean.

#Fun but don t let the water stay in them when not using! (2008-05-30) OK like many of these bath toys they are good fun and can keep you playing in the bath with the kid(s) for ages. But a note of caution!When finished playing with them in the water make sure you empty out the water from these things. As over time mould will build up inside of them and you see little dark spots inside. If the child puts them to their mouths and squirts of sucks from them like most will do then these mould spots will be swallowed. They also will appear in the bath water as I have discovered.

Say the time out loud and try to make a match on your action packed playing board. Children learn and develop skills with analogue and digital times. Play value may also be extended by using the penguin clock face. For 2 - 4 Players 5 - 9 years

#Very Good (2009-05-16) I bought this for my friends twins and they seem to like it and is played with rather than left in a corner.

#Fun educational game (2009-02-19) A great Christmas present, fun and educational, really helping my 5 year old learn to tell the time.

#Orchard tell the time (2009-02-04) Great Christmas present for Pre-school children. I got lots of great feedback for buying this gift. Fun but educational

#orchard games are great (2009-02-02) This game is fun for learning to tell the time. Each player has a lotto type board with funny time related activities to collect. Quite simple to play and because there are pictures you don t have to be able to tell the time to play it.

Ant World allows a fascinating insight in to the world of ants. This kit provides hours of fun, is safe, clean and escape proof! Ideal entertainment for the young naturalist! 5 Years +

#Very pleased (2009-07-01) I looked around the internet and read a lot of reviews before buying this for my 7-year-old daughter and was very alarmed to find that so many people had disappointing experiences with ant farms. We have had a very good experience with Ant World, however. I think that the key is the very detailed instruction booklet that comes with the kit: it really makes all the difference. Parents need to get involved with the set-up, but the process is very simple, and the end result is what you want: an opportunity to watch the amazing creatures at work. I also bo...

#Confused by the good reviews! (2009-05-17) After reading the other reviews, i bought this ant farm. Putting it together was fine, but after collecting the ants, found it impossible to get them in and most of them ran away and we were only left with 4!The design is so narrow getting the ants, water and food in is difficult. Someone said there was an easy feeding hatch. . . ? Don t know where that is then!Extremely dissapointing

#Pretty good (2009-04-19) We found the instruction book was adequate to get started and collect our ants. The ants have been in there two weeks now and are doing fine, more so, none have escaped. There is a easy feeding hatch making putting food in easy, and the ants seem to like the tube attachment they can wander up and down. Overall, pretty good.

#Wow - I never knew ants were so cool (2009-04-01) Well this arrived about a month ago but we waited until the weather got a little warmer to collect our ants, Jam works wonders!!! Two days and the ants have been really busy digging!! My children are two and four and they love watching the ants although they do think they need feeding everyday!! My husband and I are the most fasinated with this. The product was a little fiddly to put together but we ve had no escapees so I am happy. All in all a good buy.

#Not as good as I hoped! (2009-03-21) I looked into buying an ant farm here on amazon, after reading the reviews I thought this was the best. I was wrong. . . I sent off for the ants, which came very quickly. Set up the farm, and attached the ants. An hour later we had escaping ants, much to the delight of my three children (not me) after readjusting and taping corners we tried again but the same thing happend. I have set the ants free and boxed it up to send back.

Colourful blocks, which children will love to unpack and re-pack. They will learn sorting and matching colours and sounds as well as associating sounds with size and quantity. Looking through the blocks, single or in a combination, they see the world in a number of different colours. This toy stimulates curiosity, motor skills and colour differentiation. SIZE 12.8 x 22.8 x 6.8 cm 2 Years +

#rainbow sound blocks (2009-07-03) My 1yr old grandson loved these blocks, he played with them all day ,the pieces are just the right size for little hands nad he loved the noises. an excellent toy and very well made

#They grow on you.. (2009-06-06) Purchased these for my 12 month old. Nice blocks. They are smaller than i expected. At first i thought hmmm. . . but grew to like them. My son however only took interest in them for a short time. . . .

#Poor Quality (2009-06-03) I bought this toy in January this year and yes it looks pretty and the kids are interested in it however 2 of the bits have already fallen apart and as each part is filled with tiny little beads I seem to spend weeks picking them up.

#Brilliant Blocks (2009-02-16) I bought these blocks for my 11 month old granddaughter for Christmas and she loves them. It was reading the other reviews that convinced me to purchase them and I am really glad I did. She is fascinated by the colours and sounds. They are also very good because the wood is so smooth and will not harm tender gums. All in all, a very good purchase.

#Better for slightly older babies (2009-02-01) I loved the look of these wooden blocks and got them for my twins. At 6 months, the children seemed a little bemused about what they were supposed to do with them, however at 8 months they are enjoying knocking them down while I stack them up and peer into the coloured glass to see the beautiful beads inside. These blocks are best for babies 8 months plus. I have yet to see the full educational value of this toy.
