(More customer reviews)I purchased this for my 2.5 year old son who already knows all his colors, basic shapes, the entire alphabet and can count to 10. He really enjoys exercising his knowledge and I thought this toy would be great for further solidifying what he already knows.
That said, I was very disappointed. The toy claims to teach numbers, letters, colors and shapes. Seems like a steal for the price tag. However, it only teaches 4 colors and 4 shapes. That's fine, I can overlook that.. But it claims to have 16 "learning" songs to help your child learn. Most of the songs have absolutely no lyrics whatsoever. I would say at least 12 of them do not. How is that teaching my child anything?
That, and for the 3 or 4 songs that actually DO have lyrics, they are pretty worthless. The alphabet ones do not even go through the entire alphabet, plus the same few songs are used with different lyrics for each of the functions (ie, colors, shapes, letters and numbers all use the same exact songs with different words).
Overall, I think the toy is a dud. If you got this on clearance for half the price, maybe I'd go for that, but not for the price they're asking. My son played with it in very brief spurts and then would ignore it for days. With most new toys he'll usually dedicate a nice chunk of time to it at least for the first week. This one barely got an hour of his attention the entire time we had it (about 3 weeks).
I also thought it worth mentioning that the toy is pretty large. It's got a handle for carrying, but it's pretty heavy and too big for your child to say, play in the car on their lap while you're out running errands or on a car trip. It's shape is bulky and awkward as well, but these are minor complaints compared to what I've already stated.
This toy's biggest strong point is it's durability. FP toys can take a lot of abuse and as the mother of a very active little boy, I greatly appreciate that. Some of the tunes are also catchy, though they would have been much better with actual lyrics..
