		<title>Child&#8217;s Drum</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Suitable from age 3+ the drum looks like a traditional old fashioned toy. The kind of thing you imagine would've been found under the Christmas tree in years gone by. The drum is made from metal/tin and is very lightweight but also felt a little flimsier than I expected. Ethan couldn't wait to open the box and start playing.]]></description>

		<title>Vintage Musical Elephant Pull Toy</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We chose the Vintage Musical Elephant Pull Toy as it only had a minimal amount of plastic, and we chose well. It's the first toy our daughter engaged with and actually tried to grab. The 'soothing melody' seems to soothe her, but doesn't quite do the job for us parents.]]></description>

		<title>Big and Small &#8216;Small&#8217; Soft Toy</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Another soft toy (sigh) I’ll add that to the toy mountain. This one will be easy to spot as its bright orange. The toddler sees it: cue ‘Big &#038; Small’ shrieks of delight….]]></description>

		<title>Rufus Rabbit Pull-Along</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of a new range of  toys from Silver Cross, this Rufus Rabbit pull-along toy is designed in a gorgeous vintage style and comes beautifully packaged. Once you've fought with the usual ties and fastenings to free it from the box you are left with this fabric bunny and his collection of miscellaneous velcroed, pull-apart vegetables in his pull-along cart.]]></description>

		<title>Pink Horse Skipping Rope</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Pink horse skipping rope is is a lovely skipping rope, that feels much more solid than the usual plastic sets I've seen in this price range. The price is very reasonable, at under £5 and it's ethically made too.]]></description>

		<title>Farm Toys Heatable Duck</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This heatable duck from Farm Toys is so soft and cuddly, I couldn't help giving it a cuddle the moment I opened it! And Rosemary was also very taken by its softness and cuddliness, but also noticed that it was very heavy (for a three-year-old). There were clear instructions on the tag, cook on full power for about 2 minutes and you're set! ]]></description>

		<title>Build a Bear</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I can't fault the staff at our local Build a Bear store, they were exceptional and made the morning a really fun experience for Flea. She loves her soft toy and so does her cousin. But at £50 apiece, I don't think she loves it enough to make this value for money. Other experienced parents have told me the way to make Build a Bear Work is to give kids a price limit before you go into the store, and then let them spend it how they choose - so it's possible to get a bear for £9.99 and an outfit for another £10 or so. And it helps if you buy something at Build a Bear with 2 feet, rather than 4! ]]></description>

		<title>Disney Princess Role Play Tent</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Disney Princess Role Play Tent is pretty and girlie, but at £29.99 I thought it was rather an expensive purchase for something that my daughter only ended up having a passing interest in, and which was so easy to damage. I was very disappointed in the fabric material and found the assembly awkward and frustrating. ]]></description>

		<title>Little Tikes Get Out N Grill Barbeque Set</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Little Tikes Get Out N Grill is a nicely made toy, and has lots of potential but could use more accessories to enable more role play. My two have already borrowed accessories from their kitchen set to add to the Get Out N Grill. The barbeque would also benefit from having some sound effects. Although the Get Out N Grill will last a long time, I'm now sure how long the children will play with it before being bored, which is a shame as it has potential to be so much more. ]]></description>

		<title>VTech Kidizoom VideoCam camcorder</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The VTech Kiddizoom VideoCam camcorder is a fantastic idea for families who aren't happy handing a Flip camera to their kids - at £60 this is considerably cheaper than those cameras, and is designed for the odd bang and bump. The additional special effects and video games make this lots of fun for children. ]]></description>
