The "rockets" are extremely soft and could not hurt a fly even if they were to land on someone. It is all air powered and kids love jumping on the air pump which shoots the rocket into the air. My son (3) has no problem operating the toy. 1. Put rocket on vertical tube 2. Jump (or run and jump) on air pump 3. Watch rocket fly 4. Fetch ...             Blokus Classic283 reviews Educational Insights Educational Insights, 2007 Great game. Great game for many different ages! Educational and fun! Easy to learn the rules.             Melissa & Doug Flower Power Wooden Bead Set8 reviews Melissa and Doug Melissa and Doug, 2006 Lovely Beads for a Child's Craft Kit My 5 year old daughter has strung many a cheap plastic bead in her day but these cheerfully painted wood beads are much prettier and sophisticated than the usual tacky plastic ones. With this kit she made 3 long necklaces for herself with some of the product left over. For young children this is a great craft to build fine motor skills. This also became an educational opportunity when I ...             Snap Circuits Jr. SC-100101 reviews Elenco Electronics Inc Elenco Electronics Inc, 2006 Never knew this could be so much fun! My son played with this at a children's learning museum once and has wanted one ever since. I was skeptical, but suggested it to his aunt for a birthday present. I am impressed at the huge variety of projects kids can do. He just opened it yesterday and he and his best friend have been playing with it for HOURS. Totally cool, very educational, encourages imagination and is just plain fun!!             Live Butterfly Garden198 reviews Insect Lore Insect Lore butterflies! This is really fun and I think I would like to do it again. You order the habitat and it comes in the mail with a certificate which you mail along with $5.00, to order the caterpillars. Then they come in the mail. The caterpillars are in little plastic cups with food. Five days after they came in the mail, the first one started to spin a cocoon. Once they were all in cocoons, I moved them to the ...             Ultra Stomp Rocket17 reviews D+L Company D+L Company Great family fun! I bought this toy after our extended family (kids ages 2-20) enjoyed playing with the one that was in the condo we rented on the beach. That one had clearly been played with a lot and was still in good shape. Haven't had the opportunity to use ours yet, but I expect the same results. You do want to have a good sized open area to play with it as even our youngest one was able to stomp it hard ...             Melissa & Doug Deluxe Wooden Stringing Beads with over 200 beads8 reviews Melissa and Doug Melissa and Doug, 2006 Beads without aggravation The beads are just the right size for little hands, the box is great for storing the beads and string, and there is friction between the wood beads and the round-shoelace-type string so the beads stay on the string. This is a great toy. The box is less than an inch high so it is friendly to those of us with small homes. I bought this one for my nephew. When I told my kids, they protested ...             Melissa & Doug Deluxe Wooden 27-Piece Lacing Beads in a Box15 reviews Melissa and Doug Melissa and Doug, 2006 colorful and fun My daughter (now 2.9) loves these.

Have used it several times a week, off and on over several hours a night, since I got it a couple of weeks ago - batteries still good in it.

The moon itself is truly fantastic. It is realistic looking as well as functions quite well. We purchased the moon for our son for his 6th birthday, upon opening and installing it, the remote didn't quite have the range that it stated in the advertisement. I called the company and they shipped me a new remote - which works beautifully. My son loves the moon and uses it every night. A perfect ...             Snap Circuits SC-30090 reviews Elenco Electronics Inc Elenco Electronics Inc, 2006 10 yr old and 8 yr old fighting over it! I bought this for my 8 year old son to get him interested more in education, logic and science. Little did I know my 10 year old daughter would want to play with this as well. Also, it's been a great for father/son/daughter bonding, as I can put the projects together with them. I don't write reviews often, but when I do, it's for a great product like this. My 8 year old was so happy with this toy ...             Melissa & Doug Butterfly Wooden Bead Set7 reviews Melissa and Doug Melissa and Doug, 2006 Another winner from Melissa & Doug! Not suprisingly, this is an adorable product. My daughter owns the heart version and my niece has these butterfly ones. I didn't experience any strange paint smells out of either one of these, and I would highly recommend them to anyone. The only thing that could make these kits better is if they added a handful of letter beads, as I bought some seperately. -Nevertheless, a great toy for crafty ...             LEGO Community Workers Set16 reviews Lego Education Lego Education fun very detailed people. The pieces are very snall, so not good for small children. Fun for older children.             Melissa and Doug Deluxe Magic Set38 reviews Melissa and Doug Melissa and Doug, 2006 This is a wonderful way to introduce a child to the world of illusions I have been involved in magic as a hobby since I was 11. My first kit was all plastic and some of the tricks were not well thought out and were impractical. Still, it got me hooked. I now use tricks and illusions to illistrate my sales and training seminars. This set is far superior to the one that I received over four decades ago. One of the things that I like about it is that all of the ...             Wooden Take-Along 24-piece Tool Kit28 reviews Melissa and Doug Melissa and Doug Great learning toy I bought this toy for my ten month old knowing he wouldn't be able to use it. I wanted him to have something to chew on while I quietly used my own tools fixing this and that. I checked that there wasn't any dangerous tiny bits to swallow and gave it to him. He chew a bit, spent a lot of time watching me and my husband showing him how it works...And now our one year old is almost able to use a ...             Learning Resources Pretend & Play® Doctor Set39 reviews Learning Resources Learning Resources, 2006 prentend fun My two year old loves to pretend. This is really a fun set. The stethoscope coughs and plays a heartbeat. I think it was a little pricey...there are comparable doctors sets that are a lot less expensive.             My First Lab Duo-Scope Microscope23 reviews C & A SCIENTIFIC COMPANY, INC. C & A SCIENTIFIC COMPANY, INC. AMAZING Product at a FANTASTIC Price After receiving a 28-piece microscope kit for Christmas that had a plastic scope that broke within 5 minutes, we were in a dilemma: Our son decided he really wanted a microscope, but we didn't want to get burned again. After much research, a science teacher at my school said she bought this for her child. She said the quality was great and that it does things some of the scopes in her high ...             Live Butterfly Pavilion198 reviews Insect Lore Insect Lore butterflies!

I was a little hesitant to purchase this product after reading some of the other reviews; however I was delighted with the product after it arrived. The samples are good, great variety, and no issues with them being 'dusty'. I would definately recommend these slides to others for the purposes of fun and education.              search for toys and games 24-piece, 27-piece, butterfly, celestron, circuits, classic, combination, community, doctor, duo-scope, flower, illustory, learning, melissa, microscope, milton, pavilion, personal, planetarium, prepared, pretend, resources, rocket, sc-100, sc-300, skyscout, specimens, stringing, take-along, workers toys & games:    Kindle - Amazon's New Wireless Reading Device This is the future of book reading.
