Kidsday: Is it wall decor or a toy?
I was given Wallables: 3D wall décor, a Disney Princess Wall Decor item and Disney Pixar Cars Mater to check out.
I decided to let my cousins give me their feelings. My 4-year-old cousin liked the Mater better as a toy than as wall decor. When he was playing with it, my 2-year-old cousin came across it and started to play with it as well. They were trying to push it around like a toy car across the tile floor. Overall, the wall decor item was more successful as a toy.
The Disney Cinderella Wall Decor item actually made it to the wall! When I first got it and showed it to my younger sister, she was so excited to play with it. Before we hung it on the wall, she was dancing around with it, and she put music on -- on her Disney Princess music box. When I said it was time to put it on the wall, she said OK. I first woke up and I saw her holding it in her hands, and I said "Jazzy, what happened to it being on the wall?" She said she wanted to play with it. And it never made it to the wall again! I think kids like it better as a toy. RATING: 4 out of 5
