It was delightful for him - the models are big and look great, the learning curve is comfortable enough (as long as you can make your kid build the models in the presented order and not rush ahead to the rotating Space Needle...). There's also an educational value - we went online with Google Earth and ...             The Magic School Bus Inside the Earth (Magic School Bus)8 reviews Joanna Cole Scholastic Press, 1989 Rocks, Rocks, Everywhere! "The Magic School Bus: Inside the Earth" immediately picks up where its predecessor, "At the Waterworks", left off. At the end of each book, Joanna Cole and Bruce Degen provide a subtle clue as to the nature and content of their next collaboration - a sly wink to those of us who catch such details. "At the Waterworks" concludes with Ms. Frizzle looking at a map of a volcano, which tells us the ...             Thomas and Friends TrackMaster Sodor Lumber Yard1 review HIT Toys Company HIT Toys Company Starter Train Toys This is a fun train for the under 7 crowd, boys and girls. Our 3 year old granddaughter loves setting this up and tearing it down. The heavy duty snap tracks are durable and easily assembled by young hands. The Engine is powered by a single AA battery, meaning no electric wires or plugs or polishing the track! The only tool needed is a phillips head screwdriver to insert the battery. We ...             ThinkFun Block By Block7 reviews ThinkFun ThinkFun, 2008 3-D FUN! At first my 7 year old had a bit of difficulty with the concept, but once she figured it out, she loves it! The idea is to use the cube combos that come in the package to make the designed printed on the cards that come with the set. It sounds easy, but it is rather challenging. It builds spatial perception and logical thinking in a game!             Yu Gi Oh Rise of the Dragon Lords Structure Deck5 reviews Upper Deck Upper Deck The Rise of a great starter Deck When I initially looked at this deck, I was only going to buy it just for the ultra-rare. But then I actually sat it down and played it against one of my own decks. I was thoroughly impressed with the combinations that I was pulling off by discarding high level cards and bringing them back up in a short phase. This deck is a deck that shouldn't be over looked at all. With the ultra-rare card ...             Deluxe Canyon Road Train & Track Table30 reviews Step2 Step2, 2006 Great Investment!! We bought this for our son, 22 months, for xmas last year. WE had looked at many other tables first, but chose this one because of it's durability! It was easy to put together, took my husband about 30 minutes on Christmas Eve...20 of those minutes was spent putting the stickers on it. Our son loves this table! His Thomas trains fit on the tracks, but so do all of his matchbox cars. Pretty much ...             Guidecraft 72-pc. Magneatos Construction Set37 reviews Guidecraft Guidecraft My nephew loves it. I bought this for my 2 year old nephew and he loves it. He enjoys making "snakes" on the floor with them. He's very smart for his age. I assume that he will soon want something he can build something with rather than just get to stick together, but it's great at his current age.             Thomas & Friends Wooden Railway - Holiday Tunnel with Exclusive Christmas Thomas4 reviews Learning Curve Learning Curve, 2006 Thomas This is a really cute set! My grandson is a lover of All Things Thomas, and this is a gift for him. Thomas with a Santa hat is very festive. The only disadvantage of the set is that the tunnel is very tiny (which will limit some other Brio compatible engines from using it, if that's of concern.)             Fairy Princess Castle Play Tent7 reviews Time To Play Time To Play, 2007 GREAT Little Hideaway For A Toddler! Serenity is 18 months old now and has started to hide & drag her toys in every small space she can find, and I figured she would love a play tent. I like this one because it was so cute and based on the reviews, everyone seemed to like it. It's small, but Serenity still has lots of room to play around. She can stand up without her head touching the top too. The poles that hold the tent up are ...             5-in-1 Adjustable Gym53 reviews MGA Entertainment MGA Entertainment, 2007 Grows with child I love this toy. My 2 1/2 year old got it for Christmas when he was 6 months old. I looked for toys that could grow with him since I don't like spending a lot on toys that children grow out of fast. He sat up to it and played and then loved standing up to it, before he could walk. Now he loves to sit at it with dry erase markers and color. I now have an 8 month old and she enjoys it also. ...             Yugioh Machine Re-volt Structure Deck2 reviews upper deck upper deck pretty good cards in a single deck I got to admit that this deck brings a lot of good cards in it and just the idea of getting ancient gear golem and the three gadgets got me more excited than anything and is a really good idea to form a powerful deck with it and that is exactly what I did but it really doesnt work by itself the strategy is really bad, I mean the trick of special summoning monsters is really good and the deck is ...             Thomas & Friends Wooden Railway - Island Adventure Playboard6 reviews Learning Curve Learning Curve, 2006 Great fun! We just received this playboard a couple of days ago. My son loves it! He is almost 2 and really enjoys playing with all of his Thomas trains. This playboard makes playing more interesting. It arrived in fine condition...we didn't have the problem the other reviewer had. My son has a train table (not the Thomas one) and it fits perfectly. The playboard is a great addition to our Thomas the ...             Thomas & Friends Wooden Railway - Roundhouse17 reviews Learning Curve Learning Curve, 2006 Expensive...Yes...and worth every penny! I purchased this roundhouse for my 3 year old daughter. She loves anything Thomas! She began her Thomas collection with the figure 8 set and a couple of trains. As I realized how much she loved Thomas, I began to purchase more pieces to add to her collection. Rather than spend a lot of money upfront on a big set, I recommend starting small on a figure 8 set. As your child's interest in ...             Action Strategies for Deepening Comprehension: Role Plays, Text Structure Tableaux, Talking Statues, and ...6 reviews Jeffrey D. Wilhelm Teaching Resources, 2002 A terrific resource for all teachers! Wilhelm's book, Action Strategies for Deepening Comprehension is one of the most valuable teaching resources I own. I've had phenomenal success with the hotseating and tableaux activities, only two of the terrific resources in this great book. Kids of all ages love hotseating in particular because it's so much fun. In a nutshell: one kid gets in front of the room (I drape a piece of red fabric ...             YuGiOh GX 1st EDITION American Card Game Structure Deck The Dark Emperor2 reviews Upper Deck Upper Deck awsome this is by now the best structural deck made by konami as in eduational you have to play it so you can see most people see it usless but it actually helps me in with evolving my math calculation speed but as soon as i opened the box and played with it i kicked booty bro this is as i put the name on the review awsome caius the shadow monarch definitly does his job on the field i might say there ...             Thomas & Friends Wooden Railway - Deluxe Over-The-Track Signal5 reviews Learning Curve Learning Curve, 2006 Great Thomas addition! Not sure why the previous reviewer gave this only 3 stars after praising it so highly. That aside, the Deluxe Over-the-Track Signal is worth much praise! My two-year-old absolutely adored it the first time he played with it...after months of play it still gets daily use at our house! Highly recommended.             Hit Toys - Hard at Work at Brendham Docks HIT Toys Company HIT Toys Company, 2007 Cranky--fully operational--comes to the rescue at Brendham Docks.

It sucks that these cards are so hard to find. We, the customers are the ones paying for it... quite literally. Especially when companies sell them for higher than the suggested retail price.             YuGiOh! Spellcaster's Judgment American Structure Deck Yu-Gi-Oh!2 reviews Upper Deck Upper Deck Not exactly playable... As much as I love this deck, considering that it has the Chaos Magician, Dark Magician, and Dark Eradicator Warlock all packed togethar, I have to point out it has some real flaws. The main one being all the monster effects, or at least the ones that matter, require you to play around 3 spells to activate them. But the problem is that the deck dosent contain enough ways to get spells in your ...             YuGiOh 5D's Zombie World ENGLISH 1st Edition Structure Deck Konami / Upper Deck Konami / Upper Deck The Zombie World structure decks introduce new cards and include some tough-to-find reprints like "Soul Taker" and "Plague Wolf."
