If you've read my previous post about Polly Pocket toys, you'll remember that my daughter was absolutely fascinated after being introduced to the world of Polly.  The toys I reviewed then were all larger and included suction cups on the bottom, which were just perfect for my 3-year-old to manipulate.

This time, the Polly Pocket toys we received were more like the original variety and included small pieces without suction cups.  We also received a DVD containing a short video of one of Polly's adventures, entitled "Friends Finish First".

Looking back on my childhood, I can still fondly remember the days of playing with my Tinkertoys.  They were one of the toys that always seemed to hold my interest and even as an older child, I managed to keep creating new and interesting structures with them.

The really wild thing is that the Tinkertoy set I played with as a youngster actually belonged to my uncle!  He might have been almost 30 years older than I was, but he shared the same love of Tinkertoys that children for almost 100 years have shared.

K'NEX is still keeping the Tinkertoy tradition alive and well and now it's my turn to introduce this timeless toy to my daughter, with the Tinkertoy Vehicles Building Set.

Ever since I became a mom, I've loved providing my daughter with educational toys from VTech.  They always seem to be on the cutting edge of learning, no matter whether at home or on the go.  Since summer is generally a season for travel, you might find it hard to keep your little one entertained while out and about.  That's why I was happy to have the opportunity to review the brand new MobiGo 2 from VTech.

You may already be familiar with the VTech MobiGo, but what makes this edition all the more exciting is the inclusion of motion and sound!  Keep reading to learn more!
