rolling or standing still. Manufactured in a village on the edge of the Black Forest,

This is the best thing I've ever put in my diaper bag. I never leave home without the phone or a set of keys. After my last cell phone filled up with apple juice and goldfish crumbles, it was time to search for a phone just for Lily. This was a great find and she was thrilled. The buttons actually make a real sound when you push them in and there is a button on the side that will record your voice. The keys are real metal and the buttons make the "beep beep" sound just like a car setting the alarm. It also has a tiny light that is a lot of fun for babies.

The edge of the plate is concave, and easily catches spilt food, and this form recurs in the handle of both spoon and mug creating a coherent and ergonomic expression. The handle makes it easy for the child to hold the mug stable, and the top is rounded, making it easy to drink, while its broad bottom keeps it stable."

Panasonic Shoe Box Tape Recorder

taperecorder.jpg

$24.95

Buy it here.

When my brother and I were very little (probably 3 and 5), my mom had us make recordings to send to our grandparents. We told jokes that we had made up, recited our own renditions of our favorite stories and songs and giggled and generally hammed it up. We loved being "on stage". We felt like we were making something important and to our grandparents I'm sure we were. Technology passed up shoe box tape recorders long ago, but I don't think there is a better way out there for kids to make there own simple recordings. The buttons are large and easy to use and kids can immediately hear their own silly nervous voices. It's a fun (and inexpensive) way to spend a rainy afternoon and the tapes will be treasured for years. - Stephanie S.

"From the makers of Bilibo comes Babal.
Babal is a ball that is actually two balls, together, big and small, soft
and colorful, they open up endless possibilities: play, touch, throw,
catch, join, mix and match, build towers or balance them on your head,
use them as gloves or theater props. Babal appeals to many
basic playing behaviors of children and stimulates their imagination.
Non toxic materials. Made in Switzerland."
