Fisher-Price Toy Reviews List

Welcome to our resource or index page for new, retired and vintage Fisher-Price toy reviews. Here you will find information and links to a number of pages that review in greater depth and provide technical details about some of the company's toys designed for children of all ages. 

EIGHT GREAT FISHER-PRICE TOYS

When my children were young Fisher-Price offered some great, quality children's toys. However, they cannot hold a candle to today's Fisher-Price toys, which include a much larger selection of toys that are all made with improved safety measures with your children in mind. These newer toys make ideal gifts for birthday and Christmas because they can be chosen with a child's age in mind and because they are made by a reputable company. 

If you are looking for an out-of-production toy that evokes feelings of nostalgia, you will find some of them included on this page, too. Be sure to note that vintage toys do not meet todays safety recommendations and are likely not safe for young children.

Included on this list are:

Discovery Cottage
Brilliant Basics Hug 'n Giggle Baby doll.
Christmas Sing-a-Ma-Jigs
Zoo Talkers Little People Animal Sounds Zoo
Laugh & Learn Fun with Friends Musical Table
Laugh & Learn Love to Play Puppy
Corn Popper
Octonauts Vegimals
Go Baby Go! Poppity Pop Muscial Dino

The toys you find here are arranged in no particular order. Each of the title links will lead you to a page that provides an in-depth review of that particular toy. I know there is an inspirational choice here for you.

FISHER-PRICE TOY REVIEWS

Discovery Cottage

This is an old one! My children thoroughly enjoyed playing with the Discovery Cottage in the 1990s. I have fond memories of this toy because of that fact.

Brilliant Basics Hug 'n Giggle Baby

The Hug 'n Giggle Baby doll is a delightful toy that was produced in 2010 and intended for the youngest baby girl and once adopted by your daughter becomes a treasured doll.

Christmas Sing-a-Ma-Jigs Reviewed

The Sing-a-Ma-Jigs were designed for older children but even adults collected them. They were produced in and around 2010.

Zoo Talkers Little People Animal Sounds Zoo Reviewed

This Little People-themed toy from 2011 introduced young children to wild animals. My young grandson was here recently. Learning animal sounds was definitely something we did during his visit. This toy would have been a brilliant addition to our play.

Laugh & Learn Fun with Friends Musical Table Reviewed

Released in 2008 and reissued in 2011, the Musical Table is great fun for children aged six to 36 months. With or without the legs, allowing it to be versatile for babies and toddlers.

Laugh & Learn Love to Play Puppy Reviewed

Recommended for children aged 6 months and up, this puppy is very popular and has been released in various versions since about 2003. 

Fisher-Price Corn Popper Toy

An annoying but much beloved toy, the corn popper will have your new walker doing laps! It was first produced in 1957 and it is still being produced today. You can buy the one today here on Amazon.

Octonauts Vegimals

This toy series was inspired by a 2010 television program and consists of little people who are half animal and half vegetable. Great for imaginary play based on the series.

That's it for my list for today. Stay tuned for additional reviews.

Are you and your children fans of Fisher-Price toys? Do you have a favorite toy by the company or maybe multiple favorites?

Fisher-Price Poppity Pop Musical Dinosaur Review

With Fisher-Price's Go Baby Go! Poppity Pop Musical Dinosaur, your baby will be learning about the cause and effect of his actions and he will be having fun while doing so. Read on to find this toy reviewed in a bit more detail.

The Poppity Pop Dino is a brightly colored dinosaur-themed toy that comes with six balls in various colors. To use it, your baby hits a roller or drops a ball into the dinosaur's tail or onto his back and the action, in the form of popping and music, starts up.  The balls hop inside and outside of the toy and, as a result, your baby chases after them again and again. If a ball does pop out, your baby is on the move retrieving it. Balls don't go far on a carpeted floor, which is perfect for the less mobile baby and, as baby gets a bit older, moving the toy onto a hard floor allows the balls to travel farther. While all of this action is happening, one of eight songs and additional sound effects will play. 

TECHNICAL DETAILS

Tagline: Prehistoric Poppin' Pal.

Age Recommendation: Children 6 months and up
Size: 17 x 7 inches
Batteries: Requires three C batteries.
Model Number: W1392
UPC: 7445047323379

SUMMARY

This is another entertaining Fisher-Price toy that is functional and durable for very young children. Older children, however, often wind up sitting on the toy and ultimately breaking it since it was not constructed to hold their weight. It is therefore recommended you buy it to encourage your baby to move and know that it will not be a great toy for an older child.

WHERE TO BUY YOUR POPPITY POP DINOSAUR

This toy is still available at retail and yes, you can still find a Poppity Pop Dinosaur here, on Amazon.

Fisher-Price Brilliant Basics Hug 'n Giggle Baby

With the Brilliant Basics Hug 'n Giggle Baby, Fisher-Price created an ideally sized doll for your baby or toddler’s enjoyment. This soft plush doll is a bit different than most dolls because she is electronic and will giggle and coo when you squeeze her tummy but she can still be machine washed. I think that makes her a particularly great choice for your little girl.  

She is perfect for toddlers because she is huggable, because of her giggling and cooing and because of her interesting facial details. Her sounds are quiet, which definitely is appropriate for a younger child at play and at nap time.  She is, as one parent said, not too big nor too small and she holds her shape. Initially, your daughter will enjoy the sounds, then she will learn to hug and kiss the doll and then she will learn the parts of the body. By then Hug 'n Giggle Baby will be a treasured toy.

TECHNICAL DETAILS

Age Recommendation: Children 6 months to 3 years old

Length: 10 inches 

Batteries: Requires two AAA batteries. 

Model Number: V6939

UPC: 027084994070

Release Date: 2010

Current Status: Retired

Instruction Manual: Available on Mattel's website here.

WHERE TO BUY BABY HUG 'N GIGGLE 

Since Hug 'n Giggle Baby is not made anymore, you will have to turn to secondary resellers to find her. As I check today, I see both new and used dolls available. Find your Hug 'n Giggle Baby Doll by clicking here, to eBay.  Since the doll is no longer being made, you will have to pay a bit more if you want and can find a new one but there are some perfectly good used ones available, too. Just make sure that the seller says the doll has been tested and is working!

Fisher-Price Zoo Talkers Little People Animal Sounds Zoo Reviewed

DISCOVER THE ZOO TALKERS ANIMAL SOUNDS ZOO 

Your young child would love going to this zoo! It was yet another quality children's toy playset made by Mattel and Fisher-Price, designed to encourage lots of imaginative play and learning. With this set, your little one learned to recognize animals through sight and sound. He or she also learned to recognize the animal habitats, which included grasslands, north and south poles, jungle and water.

HOW DID IT WORK?

The set is electronic and recognized wild animals when your child placed a toy animal figure on a peg and pressed it down. It then named the animal and, with a second press, provided the associated animal noise. The set came with a lion, gorilla, polar bear and a zookeeper named Jack. Of course, the set would not have been complete without Fisher-Price's usual assortment of fun music and phrases. 

ADDITIONAL PIECES

Additional pieces that could be collected for this set included animals that were sold individually, like an alligator, hippopotamus, camel, leopard, elephant, ostrich, seal, dolphin or gorilla. Additionally, three of the animals came with a book and finally, there were two vehicles. The first, a safari truck or jeep, which came with a zookeeper named Eddy (who had a frog on his shoulder) as well as a lion cub, a giraffe and a food or animal feed bin. The second, a train with a Ferris-wheel car, came with a a zookeeper named Michael, a white tiger and a koala bear.  These additional animals greatly enriched the set and the vehicular toys added an entirely new level of play value.

TECHNICAL DETAILS OF THE ZOO: 

• Recommended for Children Aged 1 1/2 to 5 years old
• Bilingual English and French
• Requires 3 AA Batteries
• Original Box Measured 25" (W) x 16" (H) x 5" (D)
• Release Date 2011
• Retired 2014
• Model W1710
• UPC Code 746775033514

BUY YOUR ZOO TALKERS PLAYSET & REPLACEMENT PIECES:

As mentioned above, this set was released in 2011 and discontinued in 2014. This means that it is difficult to find a complete set. However, you can still find it on eBay where resellers do the work to find the discontinued items that you are looking for. Sometimes you might find a new and therefore complete set;  other times, you can find a gently used and nearly complete set. You will also find some of the additional animals and the vehicles. Once again, you will find them in new and in used condition. Click here to see which of the Fisher-Price Zoo Talkers items are available on eBay today.

Fisher-Price Laugh & Learn Love to Play Puppy Reviewed

Follow along on our review of Fisher-Price’s Laugh and Learn Love to Play Puppy, a wonderful and affordable gift idea for the little one in your life. Puppy is a soft, cuddly toy who responds when your child touches with various silly sayings and sing-along songs including familiar ones like the Itsy-Bitsy Spider.

Puppy is designed to be played with while also helping your young child learn the alphabet, numbers, colors and parts of the body. You chose one of two modes: learning or musical. As a fun bonus, his dog collar lights up or twinkles to the beat of the music.

A version of this dog, with slight changes and a even a new name, has been released pretty much consistently by Fisher-Price since 2003 and buyers continue to praise the quality and educational aspects of this toy.

The Puppy I have featured at the top of this page has a purple shirt and paws that are red with a musical note, green with the word hand, yellow with the word foot and orange with the on and off button and controls for the learning or musical mode. He was made in 2008.

TECHNICAL DETAILS

• Recommended for children aged 6 months to 36 years of age.
• The Puppy shown here is model number C6325 and had the UPC code 027084131413.
• Requires 3 AA batteries.

FIND YOUR LAUGH & LEARN PUPPY

If you are not looking for an older version of Puppy, you can find a new version of the Laugh and Learn Puppy by clicking here to Amazon. He has a slightly different name, which is Fisher-Price Baby Toy Laugh & Learn Smart Stages Puppy, but he still represents good value for a well-made, educational toy.

If, however, you are looking for an older version that you remember from the past, you will want to try eBay.  You will find all of the versions of the Laugh & Learn Puppy available on eBay by clicking here where you will also find many different versions of this toy including pianos, walkers, rattles and more.
