 "Terribly out of tune" 2010-09-19
By Klaus Georg (Chicago, IL)
I am a professional musician, so I might be overly sensitive to these things, but this keyboard is completely out of tune. I don't mean "it's not tuned exactly to A 440 concert pitch" I mean the notes are not in tune with each other. If you follow the "sheet music" included in this you get a minor rather than a major "Row, row, row your boat" and a "Twinkle Twinkle" with a minor sixth instead of a major one. It's nice that they attempt to have a complete octave, but if all you have are eight notes they'd better be the eight notes of the major scale!



Not usable in my opinion.



I can't speak to the durability or other usability issues mentioned in other reviews because we didn't even take it out of the box and are sending it back.

 "Early and often" 2009-10-14
By EClaire (Austin, TX)
This is a great toy, and not just for those 18 months and over.

When he was 4 months old, my son picked this out at the store; he seemed intrigued by the tones when I demonstrated it. I placed it at the end of his play gym, and one day he stretched out a foot and hit a piano key. Bing! He stretched out another foot. Beng! I could almost see the wheels turning. Excited, he started kicking fast, realizing his feet were playing a tune, and he loved it! I always kept the piano far enough away that he would hit only the plastic piano keys and not the harder xylophone keys. During tummy time, this was a toy to which he would stretch, and playing it made him forget that he was on his tummy.

A year and a half later, he plays with this all the time. When he was learning to stand and walk, we kept this on the ground, because it could hurt if it fell. Now we keep it on a low table at "piano" height, and he plays both the piano and the xylophone (yes, the string is a bit too short, but the lawyers probably designed it).

Another big plus to this toy: No batteries.

 "My son likes this toy" 2006-04-10
By New York Bargain Hunter (New York NY USA)
He is 8 months old and I put away the sticks because I am afraid he will poke his eyes out with it, plus he still does not have the coordination to use them. He likes to bang on the keys to make lots and lots of noise. So far it is quite durable and light enough for my son to pick it up, flip it, and bang on the bottom of it. I do not know about other parents but I still think that the sticks are a hazard if they have it near their nose, mouth or eyes and trip or fall over. I wouldn't chance it but then again maybe I am over sensitive. I got it for cheap, 19.95 shipped and buy one get one free. One for my son and one for his cousin. Good bargain, great toy (one of his favorites now)and I feel pretty good about purchasing it with the exception of the sticks, although he likes to bang on the xylophone with his hard plastic balls.

very durable. my son uses it for a step stool more than he plays it. we had to remove the sticks cause the string was too short.

but it has been good for a little fun for my son. 25$ is a little high.

I bought this because it looked cute and was on sale. I'm glad I only paid 4.99 for this. There is NO mirror like amazon states and it also closes on poor little fingers! The lid does not stay open! It entertains my daughter who is 8 months for 2 mins max. Find something better!

 "My daughter LOVES it!" 2010-02-28
By Alissa Lopez
My 7 month old loves this toy! Ever since she was 5 months she enjoyes closing and opening the lid of this box over and over again. There are many cute little songs the girraffe sings. The toy spins around as song goes on making it fun and my girl loves it a lot. Just this toy alone keeps her occupied for about 20 min.

 "Sweet Little Music Box" 2010-02-28
By A. Oliver (Baltimore, MD)
My 7 1/2 month old is very entertained by this toy. The giraffe spins in both directions but will also stop and suddenly go the other way. In my opinion, this toy is way more interesting than some of the other infant toys out there. Only thing is that Amazon describes the music box with a mirror...if there's a mirror on the toy I haven't seen it...either way great toy for baby girls :-)

 "Jump and Jam Review" 2009-01-22
By J. Collins (Laurel, MD United States)
The toy is probably best for children five and under. I found that my seven year old nephew was easilly able to identify and play the game. This was almost to the point of he becoming bored. However my four-year old nephew had to think about it more in terms of the sounds.



The only thing is that even though there are different games, there is not that much variation. The game tends to use the same sounds and shape references just to different music or speeds. Best for younger children.

 "Ok, not used much" 2008-07-24
By L. Hill (Florida)
My almost 3 year old received this for Christmas. He is now 3 and doesn't use it much. It is very durable. It's not much fun though. My son doesn't really play with it. The speaker on it is not very clear and how to get it to play games is a little off.

 "Fun and Educational" 2008-05-18
By the_littleminx (Oklahoma)
I would recommend this product for preschool aged kids. There are several game modes which help encourage physical activity and educational learning (animal recognition, animal sounds, colors, shapes). This is a fun game to play alone or to play with a friend. Easy to store, seems pretty durable, and was an immediate hit with our 2 year old and 4 year old. A great gift idea.

 "TOO SLIPPERY" 2008-01-16
By T. Moskovitz (cherry hill , nj)
The mat is great to teach shapes and animal sounds. My daughter loves it except she is falling all the time. The mat is too slippery and my daughter jumps from animal to animal and 9 out of 10 times falls. She thinks it is funny but I am not happy about it. We do not wear shoes in our house but I have her wear sneakers when doing this mat, which is inconvient.

 "Bad Playmat" 2008-01-13
By Sandra Huffines (Huntsville, AL)
My son did not enjoy this toy, the speaker volume was too low and the voice was boring and there was virtually no music to it. I liked the way it looked, and to it's credit it was sensitive to touch, but it just wasn't fun. I thought the sounds of the animals could be better and louder. This item was returned.

 "Yeah, pretty much worthless..." 2010-02-06
By Lauren Gale (No Left Turn, NJ)
Like other reviewers stated, this is a big loser...nothing smart about it. Sure the seat doesn't move much, that doesn't bother me. What burns my cookies is the music/sounds don't match input. So my daughter will touch it enough to activate it, yet it will start counting as if she's rowing. OK, counting is good, but I don't know how much is sinking in when she's looking at the thing as if it's possessed.



The monkey that looks like a small hat in the pictures is a pop-up that pops up randomly for no reason.



There's no volume adjustment.



If someone gives you one, just put it on eBay or something. Your child will be much happier with the proceeds from the sale.

 "SHOCKINGLY BAD!!!" 2010-01-06
By Michael D. Oneal
This toy is an absolute waste of plastic! I have 3 young kids and none of them have any interest in this. You can only move the seat a couple of inches and it really just does hardly anything. Vtech should be embarrassed to sell a product like this--it makes me never want to buy anything else from them.

 "Big dud" 2009-12-26
By Amy Mcfarland (California)
Normally Vtech makes toys that are educational and fun to use. This one is a big dud. First of all, the rowing. The seat moves MAYBE three inches, I think more like two. It's hard to do any rowing, even for a little one, with a seat that moves such a small amount. The handle bars do move back and forth, but without a seat that moves well with it, the whole front end of the toy ends up rocking back and forth, which I think will break in time. The toy says it is for 18+ months, but again the position of the seat and the distance it will row makes this toy only useful for kids over three feet tall. When my daughter sits on the seat she cannot reach the foot pedals at the front of it. My son, whose feet do touch, is three years old and has absolutely no interest in it. As for educational, it says three colors, three fruits and counts to three. I'm not impressed.

 "Cute and sturdy, but not what I expected." 2009-12-26
By J. Meseke
I purchased the Jungle Gym Monkey Moves Smart Seat for my almost-17 month old as a Christmas present. The suggested age range is 18mos - 3 yrs, so I knew going in that he might have to grow into it. WOW! His little legs are nowhere near long enough to reach from the seat to the foot pads. In fact, I have a 3yr old who is really barely able to reach all the way. I might add, neither of my kids are small for their age.



Here are the overall pros and cons:



Pros: They both seem to love the toy and are constantly fighting over who gets to sit on it. I have to admit that it is cute. The music is fun and upbeat, and overall it seems very sturdy, although it is extremely lightweight. It is easy to clean, and the pop-up monkey is a fun attraction.



Cons: I don't think my boys will follow the guided instructions which are meant to get kids moving/teach them numbers and letters. The words get somewhat lost in all the music and lights. The "bouncy seat" as described by the manufacturer is not bouncy at all. In fact, it only moves forward and backwards by a few inches. It would be nice if it were possible to shorten the length between the seat and the foot rests. I think this would make it easier for little ones to reach the handlebar from the seat. The seat is sort of rickety and since it doesn't slide back and forth very much, my kids end up forgoing it all together and just straddling it to play with the handlebar.



Overall, I am somewhat disappointed with the product. I guess I expected something more akin to exercise "rowing" machines, only in a kiddy version. Unfortunately, this toy neither slides far enough nor moves smoothly enough to really encourage a fun workout. The kids seem to like to play with it, though, so I am giving it 3 stars overall. I am thankful I only paid a fraction of the retail price.

 "not much bounce for the buck" 2010-02-13

 "Not impressed" 2009-12-30
By Mommy K8
I'm kind of disappointed in this toy. It's too light weight that when my child bounces she sometimes lifts it off the floor. Not sure how far it turns it's very hard to just swivel to each side - maybe that's what it's suppose to do. As for being educational, I'd say not much. The Fisher price Zebra my niece has is much better! It's more sturdy, etc. I think this one is priced too high for the quality of the product. I bought it b/c I liked the giraffe stationary bike and thought I would like this too but I don't.

 "21 month old loves it!" 2009-12-26
By D. Withers (Nashville, TN USA)
Doesnt have any bouncing issues or turning issues with my daughter who is only about 32 pounds. She drags it all over the house and loves bouncing and dancing to the catchy music on it. I think that the educational value of this toy is medium, basic colors, shapes, bouncing etc. But as long as she is having fun, who am i to complain? Lots of fun for the small price.

You would have to double the recommended weight limit to make the turtle bounce we're taking this back and getting the Fisher Price Zebra. The toy also does not spin as the box indicates without considerable force. Nice music though.
