The ultimate toy critic...

...for Skye's first Christmas we wanted to make sure that she had some fun things to play with up until now she has been playing with Jacey and Dax's hand-me-down toys. So I went to work researching the best toys for nine month olds and this one was #1 so of course wanting to be the best parent we bought it. The display of balls popping out of the tube and rolling back down the slide is supposed to encourage brain development as well as hand eye coordination all set to a nice array of music. I got all kinds of looks from her when I plopped her down in front of this. At first she just cried when we would turn it on, it took about 30 mins of playing this game for her to even venture off my lap. I grabbed the camera to capture her and what do you know she crawled right over to the card board box. I put her back in front of the thing and got all kinds of looks including the "what the heck am I supposed to do with this?" look. You see in the pictures the only time she even touched the thing...we should have saved our $20 and just gotten a cardboard box. Maybe once we throw away the box she will like the toy.
