Star Wars: Millennium Falcon (Galactic)

Can an epic struggle between good and evil, where the fate of the galaxy itself hangs in the balance, be cute? In this set of pint-sized Star Wars hero from Episode IV (also known as just plain Star Wars we have three familiar figures done up as adorably tiny versions of themselves. Han Solo, Chewbacca, and C-3PO are piloting a tiny version of the Millennium Falcon, which comes equipped with a laser cannon, opening cockpit, and audio snippets of R2D2, C-3PO, Chewie, and the sound of the laser cannon firing. While its not exactly an accurate depiction of characters from the films, it’s enough to make a generation of youngsters get hooked on the Star Wars saga. --Charlie Williams

Customer Review:

Highly recommended!!

My son received this as a birthday gift and it is a great toy!! My son just turned 8 and he loves it. It has lots of awesome sound effects and great for the imagination even for an 8 year old yet still fun and safe for his 2 year old sister. My husband even enjoys playing with the kids with it. An overall well made cute toy.

awesome product!

This is PERFECT for the 3-8yrs. age group. I bought this for my son's 5th Birthday and is a BIG deal going from Thomas the train to a Big boy toy. even though they are little chubby figures, he loves them just the same. The sounds are cool and c3 po's noises. all in all very durable and much worth it! This product is getting more and more difficult to find so if you find one, SNATCH IT! Very HOT ITEM! You will not be sorry and kids LOVE it!

Grown ups, get your own!

We liked this so much, we bought 3 for friend's children, and another one for ourselves. Mom and Dad like it as much as the kids. The sounds are fantastic. The only down side is the hatch and satellite dish come off sometimes, but we've always been able to put them back on. We've has ours for 3 years now and it's still going strong. Our kids have been Star Wars fans since they were little and this toy has been, and still is, a favorite. They're 6 and 9 now, and still enjoying the Millenium Falcon.

Jr. Globe Explorer

Sibling to the award-winning Explorer Globe, this junior version can help children become interested in geography before they even start school. The Junior Explorer Globe is jam-packed with fun facts, trivia, and useful information about every aspect of the geographical world. It has four modes of interactive play, ranging from having kids search for certain pictures on the globe to playing regional music from each continent. The globe sits on a sturdy base, which features a dial to the four play functions, an on/off switch, volume control, and the attached penlike stylus. This stylus is the key instrument: kids use it to touch virtually any point on the surface of the globe to hear information and answer questions. --Pam Lauer

Customer Review:

Great learning toy

I recently purchased the Jr. Globe Explorer for my 2 year old. He loves it and independently plays with it for 20-30 minutes at a time. It's easy for a 2 year old to use. It seems it will be a toy that is used for quite a few more years. As he gets older he can play the more challenging games. I am very happy with this purchase.

Great for young kids

Wonderful for young kids...enough to peak their interest and keep them learning and asking questions. Not to be used as a resource. Gets you involved with the child and the learning process

Jr Globe Explorer

Great way to introduce the world to young kids. with sound affects and places to find makes it much more appealing to little ones.

Crayola Trace and Draw Deluxe

The Crayola line of products is normally associated with the decidedly low-tech box of crayons. Sure the box of 64 comes with a little sharpener but that’s about as fancy as one ever imagines Crayola getting. This fun and imaginative drawing toy, however, might change that unplugged image. The overhead projector casts images on to the dry-erase drawing surface, giving budding artists a chance to trace, color, enhance, and otherwise illustrate artwork. 15 image discs are included, sporting 105 separate images, and there’s also a convenient storage tray to make sure the discs don’t get lost. Although the toy is based on copying already existing images, we still found plenty of room for creative expression in this set. Four C batteries are required but not included. --Charlie Williams

Customer Review:

Price is good for number of hours of play

I have to defend this product. My five year old son spends 30 mintues to an hour daily using this product. He's had it more than a month. After I showed him how it worked, he's never asked for help. My only fear is that he will soon work his way through all 100+ images!

But even if it only lasts a few weeks, this product is worth the money compared to some other presents in the same price range that only get used a couple of hours and are tossed out.

Sure it could be better. Rubber feet would help to keep it from sliding and it could shut off on its own after a period of time if left unattended. But I'm very happy with it!

Not very durable

My children got this for Christmas. My 6 yr old played with it a lot and enjoyed it. It was very annoying for me because I had to constantly put the light back on because if you barely move it it falls apart. Now the light not only fell off but the wires snapped. It has been in our garage since February waiting to see if my husband can fix it. I think a better place may be the trash can.

HELP.......WHERE TO GET LIGHT BULBS

I know this thing is a piece of crap but my 5 year old is unhappy because it fell of her Little Tikes table and now it doesn't seem to work. I think it may be the light bulb. Is there anyone out there that knows what kind of buld to use. Your help would be grealty appreciated.

Customer Review:

Rather have the new one

I just bought an older version from a friend having a garage sale for $5.00...I would much rather have this one if I had known. Old or new little ones will enjoy this. It has kept my daughter busy...we have the house too and enjoy it also.
I do like the new farm more...with the sounds and interaction it offers. Both gives littles ones lots of imagination!!!

A wonderful toy

My son loves this! Not as much as he loves the zoo... We're teaching him animal sounds and it's wonderful to have the barn that does this. He can associate the animal sounds with the animals. The animals are also great chew toys.

Everyone Loves the Little People Farm!

My one-year old was given the Little People Farm for her 1st birthday. She is learning how to play with it and seems to enjoy discovering the different areas of the farm building. The farm is interesting because it makes noises that reward her for pushing buttons or closing doors (animal noises or Farmer Dan's snoring, etc.). She is memorizing animal names by using (and chewing on) the plastic animals. Her manual dexterity has improved by twisting the merry-go-round, opening the silo hatch, and clipping/unclipping the fences. The interesting thing is that my four-year old is enjoying this toy, too! He puts his HotWheels cars in with the animals, and the two siblings play together. It seems to be a real kid magnet, because visiting kids can't seem to stay away from this toy. It is easy to put together (putting on stickers and inserting 2 screws) and very durable. Great value for the money and a real crowd pleaser!
