"If you like static..." 2010-04-04
By Jason Fossen (Dallas, Tx)
These walkie talkies are junk. Filled with static, bad reception even at short range, the packaging was very difficult to cut into (even using utility scissors) and inserting a battery required a tiny screwdriver. My kiddo played with them for about 10 minutes and promptly lost interest. Waste of money.

"Great gift" 2010-02-06
By Trudie Levins (voorhees, nj)
These walkie talkies were a gift for my 4 year old grandson. He loves them and uses them to communicate with his parents through out his house....They also are durable and can withstand any fall.

"Tons of Fun" 2010-01-30
By M. Bennett (Texas)
The kids loved these and ran around for hours on Christmas morning. Even the younger ones could figure it out.

"not what i expected from fisher price" 2010-01-23
By Christine Orband (roselle park, nj USA)
product durability is good. Listening to someone speak is not that clear, sometimes almost complete static. also i can pick up local truck drivers

"Horrible" 2010-01-01
By A. Lewis (Orlando, FL)
Very disappointed!! Tough is only good if the product works. They have horrible reception even at a few feet. You can only hear a whisper when someone is shouting into it, and by then you are in talking range anyway. The only clear reception we've gotten was from adults on push to talk phones. Don't waste your money.

Editorial Review

3 years & up. No cups, no brushes, just twist off the top and design with dots! The rainbow set includes red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple. Set of 6 bottles, 2 1/2 oz. each.
Parents like to encourage children in creative art activities, but sometimes painting projects can be a little overwhelming. (The bottles, the brushes, the inevitable spills, etc.) This handy-dandy art set provides six bright paint colors in sponge-tip bottles that serve as the paint applicators. Best of all, these paints are spill-proof with no mess at all. Each 5-inch bottle contains 2.5 ounces of paint in purple, green, red, yellow, blue, or orange. The sponge tip creates a neat dot of paint about .5 inches wide, and the paint dries quickly so colors can be layered. There's a wide range of creative possibilities here, including creating borders for school projects and using the paint markers for patterning activities that reinforce math concepts. An art idea sheet is also included with the set. --Marcie Bovetz

Technical Details

- Easy to Use - Hours of Fun!
- Create 100's of different projects
- Idea Sheet included
- Twist off cap and Do A Dot!
- Washable - little mess and easy cleanup!

"My 2-year old son loves these" 2010-02-18
By RSRCHB4UBY (CA USA)
We purchased two sets of Do-a-Dot markers: one regular colors and one brilliant colors. My 2-year old son loves coloring with them and uses them easily and surprisingly accurately. Markers say "washable" on the box, and the dye is easily removed from the hands by washing with warm water and soap - my son has no trace of the dye after his evening bath. However, I would recommend adult supervision to keep markers' dye off the upholstery, curtains, and clothes.

"Dot Paint Review" 2009-11-21
By Brooke Loucks (Pasadena, CA USA)
I love the dot paints. The kids love to use them to color pictures with! They add lots of joy and laughter to the classroom!

"Great for my little artist!" 2008-06-22
By Melonjar (Ohio)
My 4 year old first used Do-A-Dot with a cousin on a vacation. When we were stuck inside due to weather, these dot markers were great! The markers kept them busy up to an hour at a time. Just hand any child 3-? some Do-A-Dot and a big pack of white paper and they'll go crazy making pictures. They also used regular markers in some of their art with the dots. Fantastic!

As far as washable...well. My daughter did get a big red dot on the front of a very lightly patterned dress. I went to wash it immediately and it took some long scrubbing, but DID come out. I think it was due to applying detergent directly to the dot, rubbing it in with my finger and allowing to soak for a while, then rubbing and rinsing, then a final wash.

Great fun!

"Horrible pink stains!" 2007-07-12
By Book Mamma (Vancouver, WA)
These markers DO STAIN, especially the Magenta. My daughter is currently covered from elbows to fingertips and nothing will get it off. I was able to scrub it off my kitchen table with a lysol wipe. I don't have much hope for her shirt, though, and I wonder how long her arms will be stained pink. I don't recommend these for any age. Ink comes out really fast and keeps coming, making pools of staining liquid. Ugh.

"Cleanest painting supplies for little hands and keeps them busy!" 2007-07-08
By L. Forcey
These paints keep my almost 3-year-old son sitting in one place for up to an hour at a time, which pretty much nothing else will do. We bought the truck image book and we download pictures of his favorite characters, and then we make copies onto white cardstock and he has an unlimited supply of stuff to paint. We have never had any trouble getting any of the rainbow colors off of any piece of clothing or his skin or even the table that he paints on. Obviously, since they are paints you need to put a smock on your child and cover the table as well, but they are far less messy than usual paints. The tips to tend to rip a little if the paints are pulled across the paper instead of dotted. However, I contacted the company after one ripped and in an act of AMAZING customer service, they sent me replacement tips. Also, with all the fears about products made in China in the news lately, these are made in the USA. All of these qualities will keep us coming back.

Chinese calligraphy, the almost magical art of writing and painting with water, has a long tradition. The special surface of the Buddha Board enables one to draw with pure water. These works of art however, are not meant to last forever, as the water continually evaporates. Painting on the Buddha Board is almost a meditative preoccupation, adding something new to the drawing as soon as a part fades away. 3 pieces Dimensions (cm) 30 x 24

Technical Details

- Like a Zen Etch-a-Sketch, simply paint with water (brush included)
- As the water evaporates, the image fades, generating new perspectives on creative endeavors
- Encourages the Zen idea of living in the moment
- Perfect for entertaining the child in all of us
- Environmentally friendly and lasts for years with proper care

"Must have" 2010-04-23
By J. laabs (Orlando,Fl)
I bought one of these for my Grandson to keep "Him" busy during my wedding reception dinner. What a hit!!! My guests played with it more then my Grandson! Loved it. I also bought one for my sister in law because she enjoyed it so much. Great for young and old alike. Read directions carefully. You MUST not let water collect on the bottom of the board. It does not drip off and causes damage to the board.

"Great for all Ages and Artistic ability" 2010-04-16
By Jag Sur (So Cal)
This is such a great item. I would not call it a toy, because it is way more than that. Adults as well as kids have loved using it at our home. It's relaxing and great to develop fine motor skills. Just keep it dry on the bottom like the directions advise. Our brush was a bit less than okay when we got it, but I have other brushes. Also, I only put it an tablespoon of water in the holder to keep young kids from spilling or using too much water as they paint. LOVE IT!!!

"I absolutely love this product. My daughter bought one and we enjoyed it so much, I just had to have one in my home too." 2010-03-11
By granny (san antonio, texas usa)
I absolutely love this product. My daughter bought one and we had so much fun with it that I had to buy one for my home.

"Very relaxing" 2010-03-06
By Bean (New Haven, CT)
I bought this Buddha Board as a Christmas gift for my fiance and I enjoy it so much, I almost feel like I got it for myself! Painting a design and then watching it fade away is so calming. I always keep my camera close by in case I actually draw something I want to remember, but that rarely happens because I pretty much suck at artistic stuff. The water doesn't dry up as quickly when the board itself is cold, so I'm looking forward to summer when we can take the board to a park we frequent and watch it dry much faster. I love that the water dish has two little notches in it so you can easily prop the board up while you're painting. My fiance's only complaint is that the brush the board comes with it a bit thick and rough, but a quick trip to anywhere that sells paint brushes will fix that.

"so much fun" 2010-01-31
By h.s. (maryland)
this was great. my friend had one and her little 2 year old was playing with it and i thought it was a great idea for my little one. i know they have one for kids made by crayola but i liked playing with it too. its fun for the whole family. you paint, it drys and then you start all over.

"GREAT!" 2010-04-10
By M. Filiault (MA)
Great overall lego minifigure, arms are a little stiff, but it doesn't really bother me.
Don't even get me started on the shipping, it came SO FAST! In about two days it got mailed to me!
I didn't expect it until around the 15th-20th of April and it came on April 10th.
And, at the same time I had a $5 Amazon gift card, so that took care of the shipping. I only paid $5 for it in cash!
For the Pros and Cons:

Pros:
Cape
Lightsaber
Cool Hair

Cons:
Stiff Arms
Lightsaber slips out of Count Dooku's hand kind of easy.

Thanks, hope this helps.

"Nice to get exact figure" 2010-02-12
By Sandy (Wisconsin)
Going through shelves at the local retailer, it can be so hard to find a specific character. It was great to be able to buy this for my son and have it arrive so quickly. We were both happy.

"Rip Off" 2009-11-17
By C. J. Hoban (New England)
I paid almost $20 for this 2" tall piece of junk and it WASNT EVEN PACKAGED! I was embarrassed to give it as a gift.

"My son can not put it down" 2009-09-03
By Maria Flood (Granada Hills , CA)
My son eats, drinks and sleeps Star Wars. He had to have Count Dooku.
Well made product.We ordered it for his birthday and it arrived on that day. He was a very happy boy.

"network connection no problem" 2010-05-11
By nickname (my world)
If you're tired of having cables and tired of having to place your XBOX somewhere near your modem, get this product! Easy setup. I get 4 bars no problem. I just plugged it in and my XBOX pick it right up, searched for my connection put in my my pw and I was up and running within 1 minute. If you have never been on XBOX live, you'll need to download the firmware with the CD that came with this in order for the product to work. You'll not regret making an investment in this product if you love to play games and place your XBOX anywhere you want around your house. Get it on amazon while its cheap. It retails around the nation for $100! Highly recommended. No lag with this. And it'll attach right onto your XBOX.

"Plug 'n' Play At It's Best" 2010-05-10
By T. Robison (seattle, WA United States)
I bought the 'Xbox 360 Wireless Network Adapter A/B/G & N Networks' to connect with the wireless network in our home. Although the adapter came with a dvd install disk, there was nothing to install. In fact, the Xbox 360 could not read the disk, at all.

After plugging the adapter into the rear of the Xbox 360, I connected to our home network which uses the Apple Airport Extreme Base Station. Connection was established after selecting the network and entering the password. It has been working perfectly ever since!

"Works Great!" 2010-05-10
By Ron Capson (Burley, ID, US)
Amazing! Something to do with computers that works as advertised and easy to install... Thought I'd never see it till now. A definite must have for your XBOX 360.

"Way better than the original" 2010-05-06
By Juan Donoso Figueroa (Santiago, Chile)
I bought this adapter to replace my wired connection. It works perfectly. I cannot tell the difference between both of them. I can play online with no added delay and stream hd movies from my pc seamlessly

I had the opportunity to try the original 802.11g wireless adapter and the difference is huge.

NOTE: Remember to use WPA2 security in order to get N speeds.

"A network solution worth $100?" 2010-05-06
By M. R. Lopez
The Xbox360 wireless N adapter works just as advertised. Every game I've tried online has worked well with no slowdown/lag. Before buying, ask yourself if the convienience of wireless networking is worth $100 to you. It might be time to save some cash and just purchase a super long ethernet cord. But if you've got the duckets to throw around for this attachment I'd highly recommend it just so long as you actually had a N-Router. I would have given this product 5 stars if it was just a bit easier on the wallet.
