LEGO 3MP Digital Camera The LEGO digital camera looks like it is built completely from LEGO bricks, but it can’t be taken apart. LEGO bricks can be added to the top or bottom of the camera, so kids can integrate it into their buildings and creations. But this is no toy; it’s a full functioning 3 Megapixel digital camera, featuring a color 1.5″ LCD screen. Take high quality photos with the built-in flash, fixed focus and digital zoom. The camera holds up to 80 photos at a time. Let your imagination go wild!

First of all, this camera looks like it’s made of Legos but it can NOT be taken apart. It can, however, be used as an element inside your child’s other Lego creations, from forts and castles to boats and whatever the imagination comes up with.

The LEGO Digital Camera is cute and colorful. It’s available in pink or a mix of primary colors. It’s also durable. It’s the perfect fit for small hands and is easy for children to use — having only the essential functions/buttons.

The 3-megapixel camera has a rechargeable battery and can be connected to your computer by USB cable. Its memory holds 80 pictures. But like virtually all kids’ cameras on the market, the picture quality is no match for a standard digital camera. So if the quality of the image matters, you many want to consider buying an entry level point-and-shoot instead.

The toy maker, Digital Blue, recommends the Lego Digital Camera for children from 7- to 15-years-old. But many parents say it’s well suited for preschoolers while not as suitable for teens. There are, however, small parts that could pose a choking hazard.

The suggested retail price is about $60. However, the Lego Digital Camera is available for less online. And there are other digital kids’ cameras on the market (you can save some money while skipping the unique Lego design) that run from about $20 to $40, including the popular Vtech Kidizoom cameras.

Vtech Kidizoom Plus Digital Camera – Pink Little girls will have a blast taking candid pics with their Kidizoom Camera. Kidizoom includes a connector cable to plug in and watch a picture slideshow or view the 5-minute movies they’ve created on any TV or PC.

continues to release gorgeous dolls that children across the globe adore and spend many hours playing with them.

Children love interactive toys, and Baby Alive Learns To Potty is one of the most interactive dolls on the market today. She can talk, and her lips move while she is talking and she blinks her eyes. These features are pretty standard for a lot of lifelike dolls today.

The features that make Baby Alive Learns To Potty different from the others is the fact that she really eats, drinks and uses the potty. Just like a real toddler.

The interactivity is also taken a step further in that she does not just ask for food or a sleep, she will also ask your child to give her a hug, sing songs and play.

Children can learn all about potty training with this great little doll. After each feed, Baby Alive will tell you child that she has to use the potty. If your child sits her on the little potty that is included with this doll in time, she will really use it.

If your child waits a bit too long to seat her on the potty, she will tell them that she has had an accident. Then your child will have to change her diaper and clean her with the extra wipes and diaper that are also included with Baby Alive.

The most amazing thing about this doll is that she actually gets better and better at using the potty, just like a real toddler. After her second feed, she will ask to use the potty twice before an accident occurs. After her third feed, she will ask three times, and so on. This feature can be reset if you child wants to start the potty training from the beginning again.

Reviews are consistently positive for Baby Alive Learns To Potty. She is an educational doll that has assisted many toddlers in becoming interested in learning how to use the potty themselves. Kids love her because she talks and interacts with them in so many different ways. The days of playing with a simple doll are probably well and truly over.

Probably the most discussed negative about this doll is the work required to clean her up. She does require an extra feed after eating her special food to thoroughly clean out her insides and keep her functioning effectively. Parents can spend a lot of time having to supervise the potty times.

There are a few ways around this though. You can keep the feeds at a pretend stage. Take the food out of the packaging. If you never tell your child, they probably won’t ever know the full capabilities of this doll. The other way around this is to only ever feed her water from her bottle and bowl. This way she will still physically use the potty, but the mess is a lot less.

Baby Alive Learns To Potty is a really lovely doll that children are going to enjoy. It can teach children the basics of potty training in a fun and interactive way. She is a great role playing doll that can encourage nurturing in children. This Baby Alive doll is one of the most popular in the entire range, and will certainly be a hit if you buy one as a gift this season.

The colorful wooden kitchen is sturdy, built to withstand even the toughest of toddlers, and features a red, white and blue theme. It includes a three burner cooktop and an oven with knobs that click. There is a removable sink with a tap. And lots of storage in the refrigerator and shelving area beneath the bench top.

The height of the bench top is a very good, suiting children of different ages. It has a super little work area, complete with cutting board. And, for your detail oriented budding cook, there’s even a real working timer, too.

While it may sound like this toy kitchen will need an entire room with all its features, it’s actually a compact role-play toy. Some other toy wooden kitchens do take up lots of room, and that’s fine as long as you have the extra space. This little wooden kitchen, however, is so compact it’ll fit nicely into most children’s rooms or playrooms without being in the way.

Some assembly is required, but from all reports, Melissa and Doug’s toy kitchen is easy to put together. 

You could spend a lot more on a toy kitchen and get a few more features, but for a really good basic toy kitchen that can provide hours of role playing fun, you should consider buying the Melissa and Doug Cook’s Corner Wooden Kitchen.

It is also a very handy idea for girl’s birthday parties and a great slumber party project. All the girls staying over can take away a nice little piece of memorabilia to remember their fun girls night.

One of the hottest must-haves this Christmas season for kids who are Legos fanatics is the Lego Portal of Atlantis (8078). The Atlantis line expands more each year and, for the avid Atlantis fans, the Portal of Atlantis is a great addition to any Lego collection.

The Lego Atlantis line was announced in 2009, released in 2010. These products are based on the underwater world of Atlantis. Not only is it fun, but it also contains educational elements, especially with the website that kids can access for recording their Atlantis journeys.

There’s a great story behind this Atlantis range that caters perfectly to boy’s imaginations. Some deep sea salvage experts, known as the Atlantis Crew, discover a clue that could lead them to the actual Atlantis, lost thousands of years ago. The Atlantis Crew then sets out to find this long lost city for themselves.

Children can build this 1007-piece set, then they must get their divers through hidden traps to be able to unlock the keystone that opens the Portal.

The Portal of Atlantis includes 7 mini figures. There are 3 divers, a Portal Emperor, a Squid Warrior, a Shark Warrior and a Skeleton. A great addition to boys who have been collecting the entire sets of Atlantis. There are also 5 Atlantis treasure keys to help your boy on his quest.

Kids are having a blast with the Portal of Atlantis. It really does offer entertainment during both the construction and after. They are amazed with the moving parts, the booby traps and the secrets hidden inside the Portal. The instructions are very easy to follow, but an adult’s help may be required at some points during construction, especially for the younger children.

Parents are amazed at how intricate and detailed these Atlantis sets are. For ease of packing away, it separates into three parts and the jaw of the shark part opens and closes for storage.

While Portal of Atlantis is not the cheapest Lego set available, it’s one that will last across time. Whether your child is into Lego construction, or if they like their stories about the deep sea, the Lego Portal of Atlantis will keep them entertained for hours. The quality of Lego is undisputed which helps to ensure that you are getting value for the money you spend.

This ingenious Barbie doll is much more than the ordinary fashion doll; she’s an actual working video camera. Just imagine all the fun girls will have making their very own movies with Barbie Video Girl.

With clever design and a touch of technology, Barbie’s necklace has been transformed into the video camera lens. Tucked away under her hood, on her back, is a full color LCD screen. The screen area also contains the simple to use controls, consisting of a mere three buttons.

At just the push of a button, your child can start recording. The film can be played back instantly, just like a real, grownup-sized video camera, as the LCD screen lets you see what is being filmed. Video Girl can boast a full 25 minutes of recording time with each filming session. Just as good as a quality point and shoot camera these days.

For those girls who want to share their cinematography, it is very easy to plug Video Girl into a computer and download the movies. She comes with her very own USB plug in cord, which of course is hot pink.

There is Video Girl specific editing software available for download from the official Barbie website to make the movies their very own. There are also some great movie making tips available on the Video Girl website, too.

What your child could do with their Video Girl is seemingly endless. First of all, imagine being able to capture everything from Barbie’s point of view. Turn the camera on when Barbie is in her house, or out in her car, or perhaps out on a date with Ken.

Then there are the opportunities to make movies that they can keep forever, and treasure themselves later on in life. They can make movies about their friends and their lives. Really it is all about how they see the world at that particular point in time. All from this new and clever 12-inch Barbie Doll.

Children are naturally creative and they’re often proud of the shots they take of family, friends, pets and toys. Now they can be the directors and producers of their own movie studio with the Barbie Video Girl Doll.
