Soft & Smart Musical Circus Stacker
Leapfrog
Toys
The stacking toys we grew up were never like this!
A new and very innovative stacking toy leaves our old plastic rings in
the dust. The electronic voices and
music chip inside the base of the Circus Stacker teaches color and music skills.
There is also animal and instrument recognition built into the
programming. The soft, cute pieces
scored big with testers. As your
child adds rings to the tower, the accompanying instrument is added to the
orchestrated piece. By the end your
child has built a full orchestra and we were quite impressed that the level of
sound was so clear. Parents
consistently gave high marks to the design and look of the product.
Recommended Age: 9 mos. and Up Price: $16.99
Soft
& Smart Puppy & Kitty Phones
Leapfrog
Toys
If Mommy likes talking on the phone so much then its only
natural that baby wants to imitate the action.
If your baby likes playing phone games then these two unique electronic
phones will keep them happy for hours. Both
the Kitty and Puppy phones feature an adorable design with soft-sided fabric
that allows for easy gripping. There is a relatively limited play here, but since it is
designed for the very young cordless phone user it is more that apropos.
Included in the phone are basic early recognition terms, including animal
and color identification. The flashing lights and sounds were very appealing. We all
got a laugh watching little testers show us how Mom looks on her phone.
Mom liked that there were two settings for volume.
Recommended Age: 9 mos. and Up Price: $9.99 each
