What was your favourite toy when you were a child. I think mine were "weebles wobble but they don't fall down" And Strawberry Shortcake

Hi Does anyone know of a toy library in Hobart. we are moving in dec but there for 3 weeks next week? Also any playgroups which you can pay and turn up for? thanks sarah

Or was it just me? So, so funny and poignant all at the same time. A stunning use of an animated tortilla too...absolute genius :v_SPIN: valleylass

My little girl loves dressing up so for her bday which is in 10 days(!!) i decided it would be nice to get her her own dressing up box and fill with bits she can play with (from local op shops etc!). So I have been looking EVERYWHERE for a ready made toy chest, something girly ready painted OR a blanket box/toy chest in its raw wooden state that I can then paint and do it up to llok nice for her, put her name on it etc. trouble is cant find one anywhere! have done the whole ebay thing, found a few on there but there are either nowhere near WA or too expensive or wont get here in time now. Anyone know any furniture shops around her where I can go find a large wooden blanket box/toy box and paint it up, dont have much time to do it however!! hope someone can help!!

Please excuse my ignorance but please can anyone tell me whether the children's toys available in Perth are similar to the UK or completely different. We'll be arriving within a week or two of Christmas and my 5 year old has already submitted his list to Santa (in triplicate by letter, email & text!) To give you some idea he wants a Ben 10 Deluxe Omnitrix & every other Ben 10 toy you can name (even though our container will be half full of them already!), a Nerf Score Board, Alien Maker, Storm Hawks Sword, Odd Bods etc. etc. Basically if it's advertised on Cartoon Network he wants it! Now I'm looking forward to a life less dominated by the TV and material goods but he's 5, he doesn't want to go to Australia & not getting the toys he wants for Christmas will not start things off on the right foot. So do I buy here and air freight (costing more than the toys themselves no doubt!) or will I be able to get most things there. Someone mentioned elsewhere a Toys R' Us - is there one in Perth? How similar is the stock? Jules

Hi Guys..need advice... We have one of those childrens sit in toy cars that runs off a battery. When we had the fella round from the packers to measure up... he seemed to think we required an import permit for it... Any ideas? Has anyone else come across this or have you shipped one or know of someone who has? min x:wubclub:
