TimetoPlayMag.com Ratings and Reviews
At TimetoPlayMag.com, we want to engage, inform and entertain our readers to give them the benefit of our knowledge, experience and the breadth of products we cover. We look at more than 10,000 new toys and children’s products every year, and our primary purpose is to help you make the best choices for the kids in your life.
Our goal is to give you the real story on what you’ll find when you bring a toy home. And we know that every kid and every family is different. That’s why we always say: “The hot toy is only hot if it’s hot for your child.”
Our editorial team has more than 100 years combined experience working in the toy industry. Our rating system ranks toys on 4 key criteria:
- Fun — Does it engage the child? Does it inspire imaginative play? Does it contribute to creative expression? Is it entertaining?
- Repeat Play OR Collectibility — Some toys are played with, some are collected. If we feel a toy is better suited for collectibility, we’ll rank it based on Collectibility instead of Repeat Play.
- Repeat Play — Will kids come back to it over time? Does the toy allow diverse imaginative play experiences? Does it provide longer-term play value?
- Collectibility — Some toys may have limited traditional play, but kids will treasure them as collectibles.
- Assembly/Instructions — Is the toy easy to assemble? Are the instructions clear?
Over the years we’ve learned a lot about what makes great toys and exciting play experiences. We want to help you create the best experiences for your kids and your family.
Ultimately, you’re the best judge of what you want to bring into your home — and what’s best for your kids. And because you’re an important part of the Time to Play family, we invite you to let us know if you ever find an error or have any ideas how we can better help you. After all, we exist for one reason: to help you have more fun!
What It Is
The Ultimate Dream Castle is inspired by nine favorite Disney Princesses. It comes with more than 50 different play pieces. Ring the doorbell and enter Tiana's kitchen with different cooking and baking accessories. Next to that is Belle's Be Our Guest dining room with Mrs. Potts on her teacart. Kids can even make Lumiere, the candelabra, and the tablecloths twirl on the dining room table. Take Jasmine's Magic Carpet Ride up to the second story and enter Ariel's Under the Sea bathroom. The toilet makes bubbling noises. Snow White's vanity room has a mirror that, when turned over, shows a picture of Snow White and her prince. Sleeping Beauty's bedroom comes furnished with a comfy bed and closet. And on Cinderella's staircase, kids can make Cinderella glide down the stairs. Cinderella might lose her glass slipper again with the slipper that pops up from the stairs. On top of the castle is the Wish Upon a Star rooftop where the dolls can stand and look out at the stars. The Ultimate Dream Castle is three feet tall. No dolls are included.
Why It’s Fun
The Ultimate Dream Castle is a huge playset that Disney Princess fans will love. It incorporates something about each of the nine princesses in really clever ways—Jasmine's Magic Carpet Ride elevator, Cinderella's pop-up glass slipper on the staircase. This is a great collector's item. It also offers a lot of imaginative princess play for kids.
Who It’s For
The Ultimate Dream Castle is for ages 3 and up. There's a lot of play value for kids, but the great detail will make adult Disney Princess collectors want to add this to their collection.
