I bought this toy for my one and a half year old nephew and he seems to love it..for a short period! Though, I do wish the tunes are much longer! When you press the tune button (the 3rd button on top), the tune is super short and he would have to keep pressing it which loses a child’s patience after a short while. It does teach you the alphabet by saying each letter only when you press that specific letter on the phone. Otherwise, it doesn’t sing the whole alphabet song which I would love for any child to learn. It’s definitely durable and will not break if you drop it. my nephew loves playing with adult’s cell phones so I thought this will keep him interested, but he wasn’t really. Go for something that can really teach you the alphabet and play longer tunes.

I received this toy at my baby shower, but I ended up returning it. I thought the voice was annoying… and it would suddenly start up for no reason. I just didn’t like it.

I am not going to lie, my daughter loves this dog. It is cute. The music is not so annoying that parents will remove the batteries.
Still, I had hoped that the toy would teach my daughter. When you touch it it names the body part and sings. But it is so sensitive that no matter where she touches it it sings. She will give it a hug and it will tell her “green hand, yellow foot.” Since it responds so easily, she does not connect the voice with her touch. Furthermore, when it sings actual songs, if you bounce it (or dance with it)it responds to your touch by switching songs. The only way to hear the whole song is to put the dog on the floor, than touch him and move away.
All in all, it is a very cute toy. It will not teach your child anything (except maybe a few words, disconnected from meaning.) It is WAY too sensitive.

My daughter got this toy for her first birthday, and loved it then. Occasionally over the past year it’s disappeared for a short time in the closet, but she’s recently discovered it again and still loves it! She drags it around in her baby stroller, she carries it, we take it on trips, and the batteries still work and I swear she has worn it out! Plus, it has the abc song, it counts, and has all kinds of buttons all over it’s body that do different things. I would never have thought this about it, but it’s great. My daughter will be 2 this month, June.

I bought this for my niece and she loves it! My sister-in-law did say something about how one of the buttons gets accidentally pushed a lot. However, I don’t think this is a major issue and overall they love it.

My grandson loves his new toy. It is a great buy, more than I expected for the price.

I saw a similar Fisher-Price phone which was larger with more features for about the same price in a retail store. Purchased this exact item only because it was requested by name “Laugh & Learn” by an “angel tree” recipient at church.

My mom got this toy for my first child’s very first Christmas in 2004. She was 11 months at the time and enjoyed it immensely. It was put into a playroom for a while when she got a little older, she wasn’t as “into” the lights & sounds as much as she just wanted to do pretend play. She switched it into the off position a lot to keep it from talking back to her, lol!
My second child was born in ‘07 and started playing with it at about 6 months. She LOVES it. The only problem we have had is that somehow a sound keeps repeating…I have tried to see if there is a button stuck down…but they all seem to be okay. When it happens, we switch it off…and within a few hours it will be fine again. I don’t think it’s too loud or too quiet…and I don’t remember what the sound was IN the box, it’s just been too long. It came with a puppy toy…and at the time, the puppy toy came home with us and the phone stayed at Grandma’s house. We haven’t changed the batteries in it once yet…and now it is with us at home, instead of grandma’s.

Our 6 month old was always grabbing our TV remotes and our phones, so we got this for her to grab instead. We pretend to use it and let her grab it from us, and she LOVES it. It’s a little annoying sometimes, but it has a great feature: an OFF button! It’s very cheerful and she loves to play with it.

Baby could take it or leave it when she got it at 6 months. She’s 10 months now and is bored with it. Kind of a frenetic little toy that doesn’t do much beyond lighting up and flashing. Push buttons, get noise. A voice says “1-2-3.” It isn’t close enough to a real cell or house phone to encourage phone play; beyond the robot voice saying counting or saying abc’s in threes, depending on which # you press, it’s not much of an educational toy either. And the songs in the music mode are too short! Just a bar or two of melody. I’d skip this one.
