Harry Potter Wand with light and sound

Product Description

Expecto Patronum! Use your wand to cast a spell to defeat the Evil Lord Valdemort! Deluxe harry Potter Wand with light and sound is motion activated, has 3 magical movie sounds and lights up. A great accessory with our harry Potter costume. A must have for any true harry Potter fan! Requires two (2) "AA" batteries, not included. An officially licensed harry Potter product.

Customer Buzz
This wand is absolute junk. On the back of the wand is a plate that must be unscrewed to install two AA batteries. The batteries are a tight fit with one going up into the body of the wand. When you shake the wand or make any movement the tip of the wand lights up and makes a noise.

Within three hours, the toy no longer worked at all. My guess is that there is a loose connection but there is no way to see it because the negative connection and wire are in the body of the wand which is impossible to get to. Why they couldn't have made a better battery compartment with an on/off switch is beyond me. We didn't spend a lot for the toy but I do expect it to work for longer than three hours.

The ONLY reason we are keeping it is because my son loves it and can still pretend even though the wand does not work.

Customer Buzz
I bought a wand for each of my two sons. When I opened the package, I was surprised at how poorly made it was. The battery cover barely stayed on and the light was broken on one of them after only an hour of play.
It should be sold at Dollar stores because it certainly isn't worth what I paid for them.


Customer Buzz
I like how it's not sharp at the end. It's pretty fun to play with, my nephew enjoyed it. But it stopped making the sound about a week after playing with it. Maybe he was too rough with it?

Customer Buzz
This wand is made of soft plastic, so I wouldn't say it's going to last forever, but so far, it's been a fun toy for our little wizard. It makes cool-zap magic sounds and the tip (about an inch long) lights up (all you have to do is wave it in the air, so it's motion sensitive). For this price, it's worth it even if it doesn't last for years.

Customer Buzz
We purchased this wand for my three-year-old daughter who is obsessed with Harry Potter and loves to cast fake spells. The wand comes in a decent package and uses normal-sized batteries instead of tiny watch-size ones. (This is a plus since a previous wand we had took the small batteries, and they are expensive and annoying to replace.)

Anyway, the wand itself is a little thick, but that's probably a good thing since it proves to be fairly solid and durable overall. It does light up and make sounds when waved; there are three different sounds, but they're rather generic and lame sounding. Unfortunately, the electronic components (light and sound) are of substantially cheaper quality than the general build.

First off, getting the wand to light up and make sound takes a rather hard and swift wave, even for an adult. This made my daughter a little frustrated by it. Then, after about a week, the light and sound components stopped working consistently. Sometimes the sound will come on, and sometimes it won't. The light rarely comes on except once in a blue moon. It was disappointing to have a product fail like this after only a week.

Final verdict: The wand is fun enough to play with minus the light and sound, but paying the price for defective electronic components isn't so nice.

Customer Buzz
The wand with sound and light isn't what I was expecting, but we have enjoyed it. I knew it lit up and was expecting it to be more of a flashlight, but it actually lights when you "cast spells" with it. The action of your arm movement causes it to light and make "magical" sounds. It has 3 different sounds that it makes. It has been fun-I'm as big a kid when it comes to stuff like this as my children are!

Customer Buzz
This was a Christmas present and it was very well received. I researched other ones and this one had the best features.

Customer Buzz
We're die-hard Harry Potter fans and we LOVE this wand. With sounds and a lighted end that emulate the films, both my little wizards (ages 5 & 8) have had hours of fun casting spells galore. It's the closest thing to a "real" Harry Potter wand I've found - and I've searched everywhere. Durable and affordable, too.

Customer Buzz
My son was very happy with it. It has 3 different sounds and light. The only inconvinient is that it has not an on and off button, so it is always on.

Customer Buzz
this was what my nephew really wanted for Christmas. it was inexpensive enough, that should have been a warning. it took fits to get the batteries in right so that it would turn on. then once it started working after a few "spells" it started shorting out. maybe lasted 5 minutes. we were always able to resurrect it but i doubt it will last longer than a few weeks. i would have preferred to have spent more and been assured he could enjoy it for a long while.

Customer Buzz
My Aunt Pam is writting this for me. I'm five and can't type a lot on the computer. I didn't like the stone chopper because it broke and it doesn't have a move for the rock monster

Customer Buzz
This toy is very fun for all ages. Durable for the little ones and great building experince for the older ones. I thought every penny was worth it! Did not lose any pieces and the instuctions were great and easy to read! Again very fun and a terrific buy!!!!! Written by Colin and Ian-***

Customer Buzz
When I first saw this series, I actually thought it looked a little babyish and my second-grader wouldn't be interested. Quite the contrar! These rock monsters that come with these sets are just awesome! I think they want the sets just to get the monsters, particularly because they're quite nice - they're made of clear plastic so they are really neat. Plus, it's particularly cool to watch their heads flip off! Anyway, this is a very much loved lego in this house and we're out looking for more. The really cool red monster comes with this set. Highly recommend!

Customer Buzz
I have a lot of fun with this set.It is a great deal if you get it for $10.00. Sometimes I make the stone chopper run over the monster that has the crystal in his mouth,and he spits it out.

Rocket USA Bozo Bop Bag

Product Description

He's getting punchy. Finally, a clown you can punch that won't sue you! Last seen in the 1960s, this 46-inch tall Bozo Bop Bag is an inflatable Bozo with a squeaky nose that you can bop until you're exhausted. He's made of durable vinyl and features a sand-filled base. So, go ahead take a swing at him!

Customer Buzz
It's an awesome product. I bought it as a gift for my psychology teacher, and my friends and I had a lot of fun with it. It's great for stress relief.

Customer Buzz
This Bozo tore after a few punches from my 5 year old grandson. Bozo is a bust. Do not waste your money.

Customer Buzz
the toy is great...unfortunately, i am sending it back today bc it lasted less than 24hrs. i will ask for a new one, in the hopes this one can last bc my little boy LOVED it...but i am not hopeful.

Customer Buzz
My grandchildren love Bozo. I ordered two and one of them is still being used. One of them must be blownup frequently the other one however got a hole in the seam and we attempted to fix it many times in several ways. It would not stay up long enough to play with it. I attempted to contact the people I ordered from and could not get this accomplished. So Bozo is gone. I might reorder if I had any indication that the next one would stay up. The one that stays up most of the time has four boys beating on it a time so I think the product is essentially good.

Customer Buzz
I was very disappointed with this toy. It would not inflate due to a leak in the value area. Either the quality control of the manufacturer is nonexistent or the product was defective. I returned it and indicated that I would like another one sent (my grandchildren loved it but were quickly disappointed when it wouldn't inflate). Todate none has arrived. I'm lost!! I don't know what to do except maybe not do business with Amazon since there is no one to talk to or contact.

Customer Buzz
As described in some previous posts, there is a leak in the seam of the bag making the included patch useless. I bought this for my 4 year old to be from Santa. We blew it up Christmas Eve....and by the way, you might nearly pass out trying to get it blown up enough that he actually stands up and bounces back....but by Christmas morning, it was half deflated and lying on the floor. It is being returned, and Amazon has been very easy to work with on this problem.

Customer Buzz
My 5 year old loves to take out his frustrations by punching Bozo. It was purchased for Christmas and so far is still in 1 piece.

Customer Buzz
I bought this for my son for Xmas. He's only 7 and he's small for his age, but when he hits this thing, it just lays on the floor and he (or someone else) has to knock if back up to him. He lost interest in about 5 minutes and hasn't played with it since. I was really disappointed because this product got good reviews. The quality of the plastic is fine, but I think they need to put more weight at the bottom.

Customer Buzz
The Bozo Bop toy keeps my grandson occupied for a while. The only problem is to make sure the bag is filled with enough air or the Bozo will not bounce back up. I can remember this toy from the 1950's.

Customer Buzz
All 4 grandchildren loved this toy even the 13 year old, as well as the 10, 4 and 1 and 1/2 yr old who had the best time of all. It seems durable and keeps the air. My son loved it 40 years ago and so do his kids now.

Melissa & Doug Deluxe Magnetic Calendar

Product Description

Teach kids about holidays and the months of the year with this colorful magnetic activities calendar. With a combination of magnets and wood, 140 pieces depict most holidays and childhood activities. Includes a dry erase board. Measures 16" x 12" when closed; 16" x 24" when open.

Customer Buzz
I got this calendar to use also as a magnetic board for the alphabet magnets that we already have. The board works fine, but the enclosed magnets were stuck on the board and was hard to come off initially. And when they did, they left marks on the board.

I guess this may be due to storage condition (got this via Amazon/FatBrain).. but otherwise the calendar is fine.

Customer Buzz
I agree with the other reviewers that this is a great, functional, educational toy. I also agree that it would have been nice to have had a few different tiles, and the lower magnet 'storage' slate is somewhat impractical. A little cloth bag, or a magnetized back to the calendar would have been more helpful.

My main criticism is that the magnets are not very strong. It's easy for the pieces to be knocked off.

Overall, however, it's a great idea, and kudos to Melissa & Doug for coming up with such a fun toy!

Customer Buzz
We learned this really cool song in pre-school called "days of the week", so when I saw this magnetic calendar I thought perfect, and it was. Every day when we are getting ready we sing our song and put up the new day. I then have him repeat the day of the week and month. What better way for him to have fun by learning his day's of the week.

Customer Buzz
my little girl love to work with this calendar every day and it has helped her learn all the months and special days in the year

Customer Buzz
We bought this for our 4 year old to help him with his concept (or lack thereof!) of time. He likes moving the numbers around, that he can see what's coming, and that he gets to be a part of the "planning" process. :-) My only complaint is the lack of blank tiles. You get ONE magnetic chunk to write your own special ocassion on. There are no tiles for sibling birthdays, so if you have more than 2 children, you'd have to just write, "Sibling Birthday" instead of "T-Rex's Birthday." There DOES seem to be a diversity in the tiles and it seems like all the major holidays are included. I just wish they had more room for individuality!

Customer Buzz
We'll be able to use this calendar for the next 4 years+..it comes with 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012 year magnets, but you could really use it forever without the year on there. It has magnets for tons of different holidays and occasions, including "Sunny Day", "First Snowfall", "Birthday Party", "Birthday" and even a blank magnet you can draw on.

Customer Buzz
The magnets are easy to pick up and use for my 4 year old. However, I wish that there were more blank tiles to write in our own activities.

Customer Buzz
This is such a perfect learning tool for children. The product is very well built and is easy to use and can not only teach them the days of the week, but months and the ability to manage their day to day duties and obligations. Very happy with this product.

Customer Buzz
My son is fascinated with numbers and time. He was so excited to get this calendar. Every day we he is able to tell me the day of the week, date, month, and year. He is only 3 years old. He knows how many days each month has, all the major holidays, family birthdays, and plots out his week every Sunday by putting what days he goes to school, what days he plays soccer, football, or baseball. He puts the type of weather on days that is sunny, rainy, snowy, or windy. It's great. My friends at work call him my blackberry because he's so "on it" about the date.

Customer Buzz
My 3 year old daughter received this calendar as a gift last year and has absolutely loved it.
I am a Montessori teacher and childcare provider and have been told by parents of my students (all ages 3, 4 and 5) that they love doing the date/calendar every day at school, they try to do calendar time on pretend calendars at home.
So this year's gift for my six little students will be the Melissa and Doug magnetic calendar, I know they will love it!
