4.0 out of 5 stars Who Knew Potty Training Could Be So Much Fun - a review of the LM Toddler Play Center, December 26, 2006

This thing is cute. Not perfect, but cute and a great deal of fun.

My daughter (6) got the Little Mommy toddler this holiday season and also this Play Center, and I have to say that she would NOT have fallen in love with the doll without this add-on. There are just so many fun 'mommy' activities. For one there is a slide, a white board, a cell phone, storage area for LM Toddler's special food, a clock, a high chair, and most importantly (who knew? ;-) a potty.

Now if you don't already know, the doll talks and has some sort of system that uses magnets to give her input, so that when you hold food up to her mouth, for example, she makes eating noises; and if she goes down the slide, she goes wheeee; and when on the potty she says something to the effect of 'I did it, mommy'.

Cons -

--I would only pay the discounted amount here and not the full one. The toy is cute and cool, but not THAT cool.

--The slide has this propensity to come apart, but it's easy -at least for a six y.o.-- to put it back together.

--For younger children you should know the white board works and that the marker marks. I don't know about you, but when my children were two, they would have put the marker in their mouth.

--The high chair is difficult to use. The tray doesn't slide and its hard to stuff the doll in. It is also a little difficult for me to put the tray on.

Pro's -

-- The slide and the potty make her talk.

-- There's storage room for the doll's special food.

-- There's a place for the cell phone and marker to go.

-- The white board really works. My daughter uses it to 'teach' her new darling math and reading. She uses the clock to practice telling time.

Four Stars. Not perfect but a lot of fun. I am sooo glad we bought this. It really made the Little Mommy experience complete. There are plenty of activities and chances to practice being a mommy of an older child. Finally, and pretty darned importantly, I would say that it is only worth the sale amount.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't buy this........Frustrating and Cheap, December 29, 2006

This product is so awful it actually put me in a bad mood! Thank goodness I purchased this at a discount because it is not worth the full price (actually I wouldn't want it for free it is so bad). It's cheap. It falls over easily causing my child to be annoyed. The slide falls off. Doll gets stuck in slide. The highchair is ridiculous, it's hard to get doll in and out of and falls over and off of the unit. They include a potty yet the doll can't take her pants off, so I guess she just "tinkles" through her pants. The one I got must have been defective because she never said "I did it" after going potty (even though left hand was near soap like directions say). They include a cookie and sippy cup which doesn't trigger the doll to do anything! Unlike the ones the doll comes with. So my poor daughter can't figure out what the problem is and she gets frustrated. I can't tell you how stupid this toy is!!!!! Ugh.

This review is from: Little Mommy Toddler Play All Day Activity Center (Toy)

I have two daughters ages 5 & 4. My 4 yr old is the Mommy in the family and really wanted "another" baby doll for Christmas. She asked for numerous interactive dolls that were very expensive but I had to consider her age with many of the interactive dolls that were advertised; would she really be able to play with the toy they way it was advertised. She also asked for this playcenter. And it had been rated as one of the favorite toys by kids through one of the parent magazines I receive. I jumped at buying this just before the holiday because of the sale price. I paid 16.99 through a sale on Amazon. And after seeing and playing with the toy that is closer to what the retail price should be. It is a fun toy that the kids enjoy, but not for retail pricing of $50. If you pay retail pricing for the playcenter and then get the doll ($35) you are paying as much as you would for dolls that are more interactive. And that is just too much for a 4 yr old.

Low points in my opinion: The playcenter is connected by plastic hinges. The animals on top, the slide and the highchair are constantly falling off. In fact I have given up on the slide and the highchair they lay around the kids room now, not even attached. The doll slides down the slide only when helped. Sometimes the center doesn't stay up. I have had to pull the toilet paper back out more than a couple of times with tweezers because the kids have pulled too hard and it has zipped way up.

High points in my opinion: There is storage space for all the little pieces that come with the doll and the center on the activity center. The dry erase board cleans up without water or sprays. When the slide, highchair or animals detach it doesn't take alot of effort to snap them back on. My kids really seem to enjoy it.

Bottom line---I nearly gave this toy a 4 star rating because my girls enjoy it so much, but at the retail price that I have seen it at I lowered my opinion. It's a great toy if you don't pay over $20 for it.
