to think that all these 'learning' toys

[mumsfretter]

are simply no different from any toys.

AIBU to get fed up with toy companies marketing regular toys as learning. For example leap frog are advertising a plastic guitar as a learning toy. FFS it's not a learning toy it's a bloody guitar.

AIBU to want companies to stop patronising us parents and marketing everything as learning.

those tower blocks make no sense, tower blocks are fun for much younger babies who aren't learning letters yet! the letter bit is too old for the babies, and the tower block aspect too young for preschoolers!

Forget education. Get real:

' The Just like home range'

Learn how to be like mummy!

ha ha! Just like mums and apparently helps linguistics. Really I thought it was a brush and pan set?
