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 Giant Inflatable Nocturnal Creatures set comes with four different inflatable creatures—a bat, a spider, a moth, and a firefly. The set also comes with a booklet that gives facts about each creature. For instance, there are more than 1,100 types of bats, between 150,000 and 250,000 types of moths, and 40,000 kinds of spiders. Each of these inflatables has a hook and string so they can be hung up in a bedroom or even a classroom. And for added fun, the firefly inflatable lights up. Other Giant Inflatable sets include Insects and Frog Life Cycle.
Why It’s Fun
Learning Resources intends that their Giant Inflatable Nocturnal Creatures will help kids learn about science. And they might, but mostly because these are totally cool, and that will inspire kids to learn some of the facts included about the bugs. Kids will enjoy using these as playthings or as hanging room decorations.
Many kids are scared of bugs, while at the same time being fascinated by them. By creating them in such huge sizes, kids can explore them in detail without being nervous.
Who It’s For
Giant Inflatable Nocturnal Creatures are for ages 5 and up.
What to Be Aware of
The firefly requires three button-cell batteries, which are included.
Do not use an air pump to inflate the creatures. You must inflate them by blowing into the valve.
Learning Resources also reminds you that these are not floatation devices.
