TOMY Winnie the Pooh Balloon Nightshow & Protect n Play iCase - Review

We love TOMY (see our past reviews of the Winnie the Pooh Stack, Pour, Post & Play, Jungle Magic Sounds Aquadoodle & Lamaze) and ever since I was younger, I've loved Winnie the Pooh. I've since introduced C by watching Piglet's Big Movie etc so we were really pleased when TOMY sent us the Winnie the Pooh Balloon Nightshow (RRP £19.99) and Winnie the Pooh Protect n Play iCase (RRP £12.99) to try out.

As soon as I opened the cardboard box, C was straight in trying to see what the nightlight did. He has been a bit of a fussy sleeper and will only sleep if I hold his hand. This gorgeous little nightlight has come in very handy! 

Winnie the Pooh holds a balloon which lights up in different colours and plays music. At first, I did think that maybe the music would keep C awake because he wanted to look at it and listen to it but it did send him off to sleep. It plays 5 different songs and you can even set a timer for it to play for either 10 or 20 minutes. Very handy if your child is in their own room as you won't have to sit in to keep switching it on. 

This Winnie the Pooh Balloon Nightshow is suitable from birth so you will really get the use out of it. I think I'll even use it when Baby Girl is born too!

We also received the Winnie the Pooh Protect n Play iCase. C is forever touching our phones. I think it's because he sees us on them all the time and he wants to see what the big deal is. The idea of this case is to put in on your iPhone like a regular case (it's suitable for iPhone models 4, 4S, 5 and 5s) and your child can play with it. It comes with a free Winnie the Pooh app. Add that to the fact that you can hang it from a car seat or pram and you've got the perfect travel entertainer.  You just put the app on before inserting your phone and your child can interact with Pooh by tickling him, feeding him honey and many other things! It even has a mirrored 'honey pot' on the front with little balls inside so it doubles as a rattle!

C has loved playing with this and I love that it fits both mine and Chris's phones (models 4 and 5) so he can always play even when one of us is out. 

This Winnie the Pooh Protect n Play iCase is suitable from 6 months.

TOMY Winnie the Pooh Stack, Pour, Post & Play Review

On a dull and drab Monday that was composed of a doctors visit in the morning, I got home to find that my lovely neighbour had taken in a fabulous review item for us and it instantly perked me up - TOMY's Winnie the Pooh Stack, Pour, Post & Play! 

On opening, I thought that this toy looks so bright and colourful. Definitely appealing to a child. I love how there is more than one way to play, ensuring that your child doesn't get bored. 

I showed C how to play with the stackers in the bath. He didn't really grasp how to do it himself but he loves watching the water come through when I do it for him. He claps and puts his hands under (adorable!). 

I have also been trying to teach him which small shape goes in which hole. He is a quick learner so he understands but he forgets to let go of them to put them in! I'm sure he'll catch on eventually but it is teaching him very well. 

The stackers are a bit tougher for him. He will let me stack them and he likes to knock them down and wait for me to put them back up again. He does try to put the smaller shapes on top though! Again, this is something that I think he will pick up on with more practice. 

They pack away easily too - which is great and C's second toy box is filling up thick and fast and it also ensures that we don't lose any little pieces. 

The Winnie the Pooh Stack, Pour, Post & Play is suitable for children aged 6-24 months and would make a great Christmas present. It is one of the first toys C wants out of his toy box now and he will definitely the use out of it.
