Customer Reviews
Lasting fun at a decent price
We got two of these Vtech Rhyme & Discover Books for our twins last Xmas (Dec. 2008), and they played with these at least half an hour at a time, several times a day. At 10 months later the kids (now a little over 2 years old) still play with them regularly, anywhere from 5 to 15 minutes a day, sometimes more.
The books have been smeared by sticky hands and wipe clean well, and they have been dropped countless times without damage.
Just recently, 10 months later, we have changed the batteries (two AAAs) in one of the books, and the other one is still going on the batteries that came inside it.
The pros are:
*Price (you get lots of bells and whistles for this amount of money) and batteries included
*Durability
*Cleanability
*Visually interesting (Four panels or "pages," for a total of seven different pictures/sides to look at, plus a couple of two-sided movable pieces that make sound effects, and three light-up "tab" buttons in the shape of a lamb, kitten and puppy, each with their own sound effects)
*Huge musical variety -- some songs have a couple bars of vocals and some are just instrumental
("Ring around the rosie," "Twinkle twinkle little star," "Mary had a little lamb," "Little Bo Peep," "Hey diddle diddle," "Bingo," "Three little kittens," "This is the way we ...," "Old McDonald had a farm," "The farmer in the dell," "Rockabye baby," "This old man," "London Bridge is falling down," "Three blind mice," "Sur le pont d'Avignon")
The cons:
*The on-off switch has two volume choices, but the louder option is a little too loud for young ears. The lower volume is fine, and it would be nice if toy makers would put the volume switch somewhere less accessible to the child. My kids, and the ones I've babysat, all seem to like to crank the volume to the highest setting, and the highest setting seems as though it has the potential to damage hearing over the long term. (This is a problem with many toys, and not unique to this one.)
*It would be nice to have the entire song for some musical selections, but it's not a huge minus considering how many songs are included
Overall, based on my kids' experience with this toy, I would recommend this to my friends and/or give as a gift.
Couldn't pass this one up
We already have 2 similar hard plastic talking books at home for the kids but when I was in the store and saw this one, I couldn't walk away without having it! There are 4 buttons to press and it lights up and plays music/sings songs. There are also little dials on the pages to move around and reward bonus noises/phrases.
It helps teaches Nursery Rhymes, Music, Animals & Words.
Very colorful.
Has 2 sound levels. The lowest volume is pleanty.
Fun toy!
My Baby Loves this book
I got this book for my baby because she loves things that light up. Now she is 5 months old and it is still one of her favorite things.
The entire book is made of hard plastic so it handles being dropped pretty well and is easily wiped off. It plays lots of different songs when you play with the buttons- around 5 songs per page.
The only thing I don't like is it only sings half of the nursery rhyme and the first rhyme on the front is actually sang incorrectly she calls the "Kitty" a "kissy"- But my daughter loves to watch the lights and the buttons are easy for her to push.
Overall it's a really good book!
