Fisher-Price Laugh & Learn Fun with Friends Musical Table Activity Center
Laugh & Learn Fun with Friends Musical Table Activity Center is probably my daughter’s all-time favorite standing toy. We bought this for her around 8 months when she was just starting to stand on her own. It took a few weeks for her to get fully into it, but once she started pushing buttons, she would play with this toy at least a few minutes each day. It’s a little bit louder than I would like it to be. There is a volume button on the bottom.
We have always had it on the low setting. Not really sure why you would want it any louder than low. Daughter is now almost 14 months old and she still goes to play with this table about every day for at least a few minutes. It was great to have the Musical Table Activity Center and a couple of other standing toys near the ottoman when she was first trying to stand and walk, as it definitely helped her to gain confidence in those areas. She was able to move from one toy to another, to the ottoman, etc. We have given away her Ballcano and her push cart, but this toy remains of daily interest to her, so we will probably keep it for quite a bit longer.
Fisher-Price Laugh & Learn Servin’ Up Fun Food Truck
Notable Review…
I really really love the Laugh & Learn Servin’ Up Fun Food Truck and so do my 2 and 6 year old. It has some cool features I didn’t realize:
– the taco has two options — beef or lettuce and beans
– the hamburger can be built by the child by sliding items with holes in the middle through a center piece (avocado, burger meat, bacon, etc.) and clicking the top on
– the smoothie drinks fit in little circle slots and play songs or making different sounds when you insert them
– there are four “menu” cards. When you place them in the cash register area to “scan” them (which my just-turned-2 year old can manage), the system “reads” what is on the card and has corresponding songs, sounds, or sound bytes
– the shape sorter “recycling” bin in the front (green part) stores ALL of the pieces that come with it…and my kids can open the “fridge” on the other side to pull them out
The Laugh & Learn Servin’ Up Fun Food Truck sounds and music are NOT annoying – they are cute and catchy.
ASSEMBLY: I have never assembled a toy in my life because I AM AN IDIOT, and I was able to do this with only minimal help from my 6 YEAR OLD…lol It took us 20 minutes but would take a normal person 10 minutes – no joke. It’s about 10 screws and the instructions were really clear (to my 6 year old). She enjoyed helping and my husband was entertained watching the process (but did not need to help at all himself).
You do have to put some stickers on — the menu is a sticker, the alphabet line in the front is two stickers, and there were maybe 4 others? Not too bad.
It takes 3 AA batteries that you need a screw driver to put in (one of the screwdrivers with the intersecting cross/X thing on it, not one of the flat ones). <-- I told you I was an idiot! 🙂 We really love this. I wish it had been available 6 months ago so my son could have enjoyed it earlier - but I think he'll get another 2 years out of it (especially since my 6 year old plays with it with him and seems to have fun - they were fighting over it last night). Wait to get it until you can get a pro-mo code on the FB site. We got ours for 30 per-cent off around memorial day when it was a preorder.
furReal Munchin’ Rex
Parents! Be careful letting this guy loose in the house. He maybe furReal eating your Cheetos! Or at least that’s your story and your sticking to it. This guy is pretty popular and hitting some of the top toy charts. Fad, smads, another toy to consider..
Here are some notable reviews…
“I bought him for my daughter for her birthday. He is so cute. He jumps around and makes lots of different noises. Definitely a good addition for a dino lover!”
“We have had other furReal friends and my kids have always loved them. They love this one too! This little Rex is so cute and my kids have a great time playing with him! Some reviews are saying it doesn’t work after turning off demo mode but just make sure you read the instructions as there is a certain way you have to activate him. I guess this is to conserve battery. So if you switch him to On he will work you just have to make sure you know how to do it. So much fun for our kids!”
“I’m not a purchaser of said product but am a science teacher. Broccoli for a meat eating Dino…. really???? Also cavemen cookies? When man wasn’t even on Earth until much later. To save science teachers everywhere from having to reteach miconceptions, please reconsider or replace the broccoli and cookie with a smaller Dino or a fake meat haunch.” – Hey teach, have you heard of make believe? 🙂
Just Play – Scare Vampirina B & B

Verified Purchase
Bought this for my daughter as a Christmas Gift and she absolutely loves it! The different levels, the surprises, and the lighted figure are all little things that make this playset awesome.
Only downside: Some of the pieces (like the fences and the bats on the front) do not stick very tight. If you have little kids or are moving it around a lot, be careful of losing them.

This house is a winner with my kids! It gets played with more than any other Christmas toys! Vampirina lights up in at least three different spots in the house, it was easy to assemble, and easy to play with!

only the vampirina figure glows in the b&b. I purchased the other glow figures for my baby to use with the b&b but they didn’t work. only vampirina glowed. had to purchase the ghoul glow lights and sound chamber to use with the other glow figures to get them to light up
