Grow Your Own Butterfly Armada

April 6, 2010

About a year and a half ago when we started this site, I wrote a review of the Live Butterfly Garden and how much the boys loved getting the butterfly caterpillars in the mail and then watching and waiting for them to crawl up and start making their cocoons.

Hoppy Easter!

April 4, 2010

I can’t resist a good bunny pun! This Wonderworld Hopping Bunny Walker is the most adorable bunny toy I could find, and the cutest walker ever.

Toy Storage

February 20, 2010

I wouldn’t go right to saying we have a major problem here at Chez Toy Report, but toy storage is an ongoing problem for us. Let me rephrase that, it’s the toys storage that we seem to have a problem with. Individually each toy has a place, but when you put them all together as [...]

Does it seem odd that a grown woman is excited about getting a Boon stuffed animal storage chair for her birthday? Not when she’s a mother of three kids with a stuffed animal collection to rival a well stocked toy store. We’ve had a major issue storing stuffed animals at Chez Toy Report for a [...]
