Little Tikes Swing Along Castle Allows Imaginative Adventures For Kids
May 16th, 2019
Hear ye, hear ye, calling all noble knights and daring damsels, the Little Tykes Swing Along Castle is here! This royal play set features a telescope; a beginner’s rock climbing wall, safety swing, slide and steering wheel for hours of active fun. The perfect setting for imaginative adventures, the Little Tikes Swing Along Castle can be set up in under 30 minutes for indoor or outdoor use. With a gentle design and safety features such as the three-point safety seat belt on the swing, this play set was created with kids ages 1-4 in mind. However, it must be said that Amazon user reviews beg to differ on a number of points.
Many agreed that the toddler slide was incredibly short and the swing was extremely low to the ground, making it nearly impossible for their 3 and 4 year olds to use the swing without dragging their feet on the ground. One review mentioned that their 4 year old was as tall as the slide was long so there was no actual possibility of sliding. Reviewers with children between the ages of 1 and 2 seemed to have little problem with this Little Tikes Swing Along Castle, remarking that the set was safe and the right size for their little ones.

Hot Wheels Color Shifters Is Like A Miniature Water Park
December 6th, 2018
Kids love Hot Wheel cars, and they really love the color transforming “Color Shifter” cars! This play set makes changing the car color not only easy but loads of fun. It comes with one car that changes from icy blue to green, but others can be purchased for use with this toy. The base has dunk tanks to dip the cars into hot or cold water making the cars’ paint transform. There is a spray gun and special shielded area for squirting the cars and watching them switch color. Constructed from sturdy, durable plastic. Even though water collects in a basin beneath the platform, the Hot Wheels Color Shifters is best played with outside for worry-free action.
After transforming the colors, the car can be shot down the curved track on the Hot Wheels Color Shifter Blaster to race away from the base. One parent suggests equipping the kids with small paintbrushes so they can make intricate designs on the car. Parents note that luke-warm water will change the color, but to change it back requires icy cold water. They also note that the color shifting ability temporarily wears out after about a half hour of play. The cars just require a rest, so it is a good idea to have several cars. Several reviewers say an adult needs to be on hand for making frequent trips for hot and cold-water refills.
