What's the No. 1 group dance for the pre-school set? Hint: it's not the "Electric Slide" or "Cotton-Eyed Joe." You guessed it, and so did Elmo: the "Hokey Pokey." Though Elmo doing the "Slide" would be a sight to see, he masters the Pokey quite convincingly, to the probable delight of his toddling fans. After loading his foot with four "AA" batteries, press his hand and he performs the popular jig. He sticks out both his right hand and foot, shakes his body all about, then smoothly spins in place, thanks to a rotating platform under one foot. Elmo even spices up the beat, and sporadically speeds up the action; both innovations crank up the fun factor. The only downside: he was de-plushed, presumably because of all the mechanisms needed to help him dance and maintain balance. The result, still, is an impressive performance. He's just not very cuddly. --Diane Beall ... Read more

oh my gosh!!!
Can we say neverstop!! - she ran this thing into the ground!! played with it alllll the time and still does - highly recommend

My todler loves it!
I bought this for my son about two months ago. And I believe I must have gotten the most durable one. My 20 month old son was only dancing with him the first two weeks, until he discover that it's more fun to squeeze him, while he shakes, then throw him against the floor or wall. So far it has been over a month, and the Elmo is still singing, dancing, and saying oops or thank you. I would recomend this toy to any one.

Good times for kids
My 2 year old has this and loves it. He's already a huge fan of Elmo, so I'm sure that helps. The toy itself is rather neat since it pretty much does the hokey pokey. Elmo puts in his hand in, his leg in and he shakes all about, then he turns around in a circle. Doesn't work so good on carpet, better on smooth surfaces. The sound it good and lucky for us parents, the song doesn't last too long. If you tip him upside down he says "whoopsie!", and something about needing to be turned back upright. Cute toy. My son thinks Elmo is dancing with him. ... Read more

Guess what! Dora the Explorer has jumped on the royal bandwagon! This intrepid explorer is now a fairy tale princess with magical hair that grows when the jewel in her crown is pressed with a wand. Dora talks and sings, too, in both English and Spanish: "Vamanos! Let's go to fairytale land! Will you brush my hair?" The 14-inch-tall plastic doll is not designed to be cuddled so much as played with and groomed. She is attired in a satiny yellow gown trimmed in pink and purple, and has a brush, barrettes, and magic wand. The magical tresses emerging from the hair-growing tube are quite realistic, although grownups, at least, might be a little unnerved at the sleek brown hair oozing in and out of Dora's head. Still, children are experts at suspending disbelief and accepting weirdness in the world, so they probably won't mind a bit. Four AA batteries required (included). --Emilie Coulter ... Read more

Not as happy as I thought!!!!
We bought this for our daughter Brittney (39 months), she wanted it so bad, then after a few days she just stopped playing with it. I don't think she's into the hair brushing and that sort of play just yet. She still loves dora's house, and her other dora dolls which include star catching dora, cowboy dora, buenas noched dora, magic surprise dora and some other ones.

A review for my Sister
The first day my sister ever saw this item, she wanted it for her birthday, but she got it for Christmas. Thanks to our best friend, Pat, now living at Bethel Retirement Home. When my sister got this, she thought that Dora looked cute in the box. My sister really likes the song that Dora sings. One time, my sister combed Dora's hair too much and too hard. Then it didn't work. My father fixed it on the day he got batteries for my MindMania Spelling Clip. Last, my sister doesn't play with Dora oftenly. Dora uses 4 "AA" batteries (included.)- Cristian and Alejandra Mojica.

3 yr old likes maybe too much
Dora is still doing okay considering what she has been through since Christmas.Her pretty hair do was taken out of its rubber bands fairly quickly.She has gotten an unrequested hair cut, luckly not much was cut because I caught my daughter in the act.She gets played with somewhat often even by visiting children.I do sometimes have to take Dora away when the kids start fighting over her.She doesn't look as good as new anymore, but well loved. ...

JUST GREAT
My son is only 2 1/2 months and he loves this puppy!!! he just look at it and laugh a lot!!! it's just a great toy that helps to stimulate the babys sense

Great DOG!!
I love this toy, the only thing that I have a problem with is that some of the features are too close together.But other than that I highly recommmend it.

Daugher Loves Her Puppy
We bought this for our 15 mo. old daughter and she really enjoys her puppy.It's one of the toys that she goes back to throughout the day. We've had it for several months and had no problem with the ear breaking as some other reviews have stated.There are many different songs/games- I see this as something she willplay with for a long time.It's not her #1 favorite toy (That's the Laugh and Learn House- it is THE BEST!) but she does really like it and plays with it quite often. ...

Editorial Review

Dora the Explorer, "Nick Jr.'s" doe-eyed, Mexican sojourner, converses in Spanish and English as a doll as naturally as a cartoon. From simple, one-word translations to the "Happy Song," Dora speaks and sings using over 30, clearly pronounced, easy-to-learn words. She interacts with four included friends--a star, baby bird, butterfly and frog--who respond with movement, light and sound (via microchips) when placed in her right hand. Dora's body is designed to sit rather than stand (she has a very flat bum and solid posture), so she's actually built to be conversational. Just position her on the edge of a chair and the fun begins. If kids still need something to coddle, Dora has pliable extremities, and her pretty, brown hair can be combed. Her clothes, however, are not removable. Required: 4 "AA" batteries.--Diane Beall ... Read more

Very Disappointed!!!!
Half the time Dora doesn't even know what little friend she's holding ,that is if my daughter can find them!!! Most of the time Dora repeats her words over and over and over again like a broken record!! She is a huge Dora fan but has lost all interest in this toy. Wish I could get my money back.

For Dora Fans
I bought this for my girlfriend's 3 year old and she absolutely loves it. She takes it with her to school every day. She already learned the little song that Dora sings and knows how to switch Dora's friends on the palm of her hand, herself. It's a good idea to keep Dora's friends always in your sight because once lost the doll will loose some of it's coolness. But I'm happy that I could make a 3 year old jump for joy. Great gift idea for a little Dora fan.

This toy is a waste of money....do not buy it!
After opening this toy that Santa brought for my 3 year old (no small feat with the master degree holding packaging engineers securing each and every extremity and accessory piece with a wire), and playing with it for a few minutes, I immediately started to wonder why I couldn't get the toy to say the 30 phrases the box promised.My husband suggested that maybe there is a Spanish mode, but there is no "Spanish" button to be found.Additionally, I too thought for the price paid, the manufacturer could have included Dora's backpack to keep her "friends" in.
As another reviewer stated, I can only get the doll to say 8 phrases unless hola and adios count each as 1, then we're up to 10.
Furthermore, the weight of this doll, if launched, will surely break a window, dent a wood floor or cause a concussion in an innocent sibling standing by.
It should go without saying that this is going back as it doesn't do what is promised on the package. ... Read more

Elmo has certainly sold out. The fuzzy red Muppet is dressed up in a chicken suit, with only his red face and hands showing. The fuzzy suit is bright yellow with a white chest, orange feet, and a red comb on the hood. Push the button on Elmo's left foot and his high-pitched voice encourages little ones to do the Chicken Dance with him. His arms flap and his knees bounce up and down as he sings the lines, "Elmo wants to be a chicken, Elmo wants to be a duck" to the familiar, but annoying, tune. Press the button on his right foot and Elmo will cluck like a chicken and move his head. Note that these two actions are the only ones Elmo does; there is no volume control, repeatedly hitting a button will cause a "rap effect," and the body under the chicken suit is hard plastic, which hurts his huggability factor. --Pam Lauer ...

Good while it lasted
Since he was an infant, our son has LOVED the Chicken Dance, and when he was 5.5 months we bought him Chicken Dance Elmo.At first he thought it was odd, but then he started to like it and we knew that whenever he was upset Elmo could get him to calm down.Eventually, at 7 months he went through a phase where he no longer wanted to be changed on his changing table.Wouldn't you know, Elmo was the the one toy that could occupy him long enough for us to change his diaper.

My BIG disappointment with Elmo is that he is not very durable.We used him for entertainment purposes only and after two months he just stoppped singing.He still clucks like a chicken if you press his foot, but when you press the other foot nothing happens (no song and dance).We thought it needed more batteries but after trying that its clear that Emlo is broken.Which is too bad since we really liked this toy.

Great product for young kids!
I bought this toy for my neice on her 1st birthday.Out of all the awesome, expensive toys that she's gotten, this was her favorite!The best $15 I ever spent!It goes everywhere with her, and she's learned how to dance from watching and playing with Elmo.I loved this item so much I'm buying one for my baby (well actually it's for me)!

Suprise hit!
Our kids are shy (usually) but they immediately loved Elmo & danced along with him bending their knees & flapping their arms!I wish the song were longer, but our kids have a very good time with this & return 2 or 3 times daily! ... Read more

Simply put the Move ‘n Groove Dance Mat on the floor and let your child dance the day away. The keyboard makes six different notes, the instrument icons play various tunes, and when the picture of Barney is stepped on, he will issue instructions to step on the blue footprint, step on the red footprint, etc., and even congratulate the child when she steps on the correct spot. The furry, inflatable Barney figure spins around when music plays, an effect that would be better if he didn't tilt weirdly to one side. Nonetheless, Barney is still a nice bonus with this mat since, being removable, he is a fun toy in his own right. True, the combinations of things you can do may be limited, but the physical and interactive qualities of this toy are a big plus. --David Stoesz ... Read more

TRICIA LYNNE MAY
I LOVE BARNEY HE IS THE BEST EVER AND MAKES MY DAY EVERYDAY INCLUDING SUNDAY GUYS SERIOUSLY INCLUDING SUNDAY!

How to stabilize barney....
ok - if you've made the mistake of adding this to your toy collection you can try stabilizing Barney by sliding a pair of chopsticks down the right side of his right leg (but not all the way down - just under his arm to about ankle length)and a little baby spoon (or something that size that won't puncture the inflatable plastic) down the inside of his right leg. You still have to keep him inflated to the max and he still tilts to one side slightly. We will see how long the interest level lasts with our one year old and our 3 year old and then we will toss it!
One other piece of advice - just accept the fact that there is nothing that "teaches" dancing here - there is no instructional foot stepping directions from Barney. He just asks to find things on the mat - not to any song or rythym or any pattern at all. So, this could have some "fun" value if your child loves jumping around on the mat with Barney to all the music and sounds the mat makes when danced on.

Fun for a range of ages!
I have 4 kids from 1 to 6 and they all loved this toy!We haven't had any problems with it falling over.The only problem I have noticed is that it seems to go through batteries if you don't turn it off when not is use.I think this is a great item especially for the price! ... Read more

Great Toy
My DD got Blue for Christmas...two weeks after she got it...Blue stopped working...come to find out it has an on/off switch. She had somehow turned it off. She loves singing and dancing with Blue. We just had to put more batteries in it today. So the toy goes for a while with the batteries that come with it.

It's cute, and my son loves it
Blue dances, sings, and teaches your child the dance.It comes with the video "Blues Room"which is great if you happen to like the new version of Blues Clues.I personally cannot stand Blues Clues anymore and think it has lost most of it's educational value since Steve left and ESPECIALLY since Blue's Room was added.
Anyway, the dancling and singing blue itself is great, the batteries lasted surprisingly long and my son had a blast with it!

Great
My 2 year old daughter got this for her birthday. All three of my children love it. The dance is very cute, the phrases are fun, and it keeps them entertained for as long as a 2 and 3 year old can be.
When blue won't sing anymore, check the batteries, that might help.The video is a plus. My two younger kids love the videos, any Blue's Clues videos. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Elmo may not be on the cutting edge of pop culture with this incarnation, but he still makes playtime fun. Instead of mimicking the latest hit, which always seems to drive kids wild, he sings and dances his own version of a 70s classic: "YMCA." It never dies, does it? The 13.5-inch Elmo sings out letters to a catchy rhythm while dancing what can only be described as pseudo-Egyptian. It's quite a feat, actually, to see what he does with his arms and legs: standing on one foot, bobbing his head, moving several limbs at once. His cute, familiar voice hasn't changed, either; kids can hear it with each press of his upheld hand. Required: 4 AA batteries.Diane Beall ... Read more

An above average toy from a picky mom
My daughter does not pay ANY attention to Elmo on television, she isn't yet (at one year old) watching Sesame Street. In stores, we have tried playing with her with the other Elmo dancing/moving plush toys out there and she has never paid too much attention- we just figured she doesn't like Elmo. Then for Christmas she got the Elmo learning table and played with it daily, along with the plush toy that comes with it. She still didn't seem too interested in Potty Elmo or Chicken Dance Elmo or some others, so we didn't think she'd be crazy about this one.

Wrong assumption! My daughter LOVES to dance and she dances along with this E-L-M-O. She'll crawl right up to him and sway and bounce to the music. She's still a bit young for this toy but yet she plays with it when we press his hand and get it started (she hasn't yet mastered the art of squeezing his hand to make him dance). This toy is not her favorite but is well made, Elmo dances without falling down, and my daughter does like this toy and will spend time throughout the day be-bopping along with it. I'd recommend it especially if your child is older and likes Elmo!

A friend's daughter is over 2 years old and likes Sesame Street and is scared of the toy when it moves so you never know....my 1 year old is fine with it, and not interested in Sesame Street on tv. Go figure.

And finally, my own opinion, this toy is just cute! And durable. I don't see where it's educational, just fun.

Does ELMO really know how to spell??
The chear part of the ELMO dolls preformance sings E N M O instead of ELMO.Pretty sad expecially when your 20 month old is learning how to say his ABC'S Something should be done about this. The part when the doll makes the letters with his arms is really cute.

Another Elmo Hit and Only Paid $7 at WALMART
I was going to purchase this for my soon to be 2 year old for Christmas but decided to wait.Every time we go to a toy store she would run right to ELMO and press his hand.She would even spell E-L-M-O at home everytime she saw a commercial or played with one of her other ELMO toys. She loved it, but I hated to spend (...) on yet another ELMO toy.Well I just purchased it for (...) on clearance at WALMART.She hasn't stopped playing with it and dances right along with him.It is very cute (a little annoying after a while for Mom and Dad).Well worth it for a bargain price of (...). ...

Sporty Dora is a Great Surprise
You can't go wrong with a Dora doll.And I love this sporty look.Dora still wears her signature pink and orange, but in a long-sleeved hooded sweatshirt and nylon sweatpants. Her legs and arms are soft fabric.The head and torso hard plastic.My 3-year-old daughter was so excited to find her very own Dora bracelet hidden inside Backpack.
Squeeze Dora's tummy to hear 3 phrases:
"Hola, I'm Dora."
"We did it!Lo Hicimos!"and
"Swiper, no swiping!"

Excellent for both parents and kids!
We purchased this Dora doll for our daughter and she loves it because it's Dora. We love it because the voice is softer than most talking toys (our daughter also received a dancing/talking version that is much louder and consequently more annoying). We also liked that there was a surprise in Dora's backpack (one of three items) that your child can play with ... and then put back!

This is a quality toy for your Dora-loving child that won't drive you bonkers with noise.

GREAT POOH
**THIS IS THE SAME REVIEW AS THE TIGGER JUST DIFFERENT NAMES** Both of my 20 month old twin sons have one of the Baby's First Friend for a "lovey". My son Conner loves his Pooh! We dont have a pooh theme, and my sons dont really like pooh, but they love their loveys! I loved the little bear and its now lost in the bottom of the toy chest and that cute blanket is gone forever. Pooh is a great material like a baby blanket. He is "breathable" so I always felt confident putting Pooh in the crib with Conner. Conner loves to suck on his ears and bring him everywhere, he now calls him "OOH"(pooh without the "P"), too precious. We actually have 3 of these "OOH's" to make sure we always have one. We wash him in the machine constantly and he is also easily spot cleaned. My son brings "OHH" everywhere and loves to use him as a little pillow. Conner even refuses to sleep without his little buddy. This is just a perfect toy for any aged baby, toddler or child! "OOH" is very durable and has been thrown, stepped on, attacked with the stomach flu, bitten, pulled and everything else you could imagine a little boy doing. Its tough love for "OOH" and hes perfect for any child, whether or not they are Winne the Pooh Fanatics! ****MY son has also learned to love something other than family, and he has learned to be careful of where he leaves Pooh, I just love these toys and so does Conner**** ...

Now we're talkin'!
We have 18 month old twin boys. One very active, the other a bit more laid back- but both love ALL the Blue's Clues versions of the show (the old and the new). After their recent 18 month check up, and finding out that by the time they turn 2 years old, they should be able to say at least 20 words, -this with a hint from the Dr. suggesting "speach therapy" if no progress by then! Hmmmm!

One twin says 2 words, the other 4 words.. so I thought this fun SOFT toy might help them along. (certainly couldn't hurt) The one that twin that says two words, is now seriously trying to communicate back each time Blue says something. The other loves to carry Blue around and likes to dance around with it with music from their favorite show.

This toy has very soft fur, is huggable, has floppy ears, arms and legs, and a cute little tail (small area of the upper chest is firm but does not interfere with their fun at all) It is great for them to carry about, and easy for them to learn to use. It measures from HEAD to HEAL about 10.5 inches and really looks alot like the NEW Talking Blues Clues dog and sounds just like her too.
And to hopefully help avoid possible speach therapy classes and for good measure (double the fun!), I also bought the New Talking Blues Clues Clip little stuffed plush (about 3 inches) that says 6 phrases that they seem to like as well, also found at Toys R Us.

MY TWO YEAR OLD LOVES IT
My 2 year old hasn't shown much interest in the new blues Clues show where Blue talks but he loves the animated show.Still, this was among his favorite Christmas presents this year.He has a very strong vocabulary so far and Blue is helping him learn some new words and phrases.

It's a very fun toy that he can pick up and use on his own that doesn't require any set-up or assistance from mom & Dad.Well worth the money.Seems to be fairly durable so far.

Great for the Blues Clues Fan
My 20 month old son loves this toy.He takes Blue with him everywhere. The only complaint I have is that I find the talking to be a little annoying, as they didn't record actual phrases, just individual words which they string together into different phrases, leaving it sounding choppy and unnatural. My son doesn't mind, however. I was a little concerned that the battery compartment might make it too hard for him to sleep with, but that has not been a problem at all. Overall, I would definitely recommend this toy if you have a Blues Clues fan at home! ... Read more

Dora the Explorer would never think of setting out on an expedition without her trusty backpack, and chances are that any kid who gets hold of this hard-plastic backpack will feel the same. It features the same cheerful expression and, at the press of a button, it says one of four different upbeat lines or sings the "Backpack Song," which chances are your child already knows by heart. The sound is awfully loud, so parents may wish to have an artfully arranged piece of tape ready for muting purposes. Rounding out the ensemble are Dora-themed bracelet, camera, magnifying glass, and binoculars. While none of these accessories actually work, like the backpack in which they all fit, they're quite charming. --Charlie Williams ... Read more

Fun, but definitely not perfect.
I bought this for my two year old daughter last weekend. She is a huge Dora fan and she was very excited about it. She plays with it a lot, but she can't get the binoculars, etc. out of the backpack without my help. The bracelet also doesn't stay on her wrist very well. I don't really understand why they didn't put straps on the backpack either, but my daughter really doesn't seem to mind. Overall she really seems to be enjoying the toy, but it could have been designed better.

Not worth it!
I purchased this toy for my 2 year old.The box says 2+ for age recommendation.She loves Dora and was quite excited until she was unable to place the pieces in the backpack easily and she could not manage to get them out without help.She immediatley wanted to put it on her back and wear it but there are no straps.Overall, this toy is a bust and will be returned.

2 yr. old loves it!
My daughter received this as a gift on her 2nd birthday.She loves taking the objects in and out of the backpack.I often find her walking around the house "taking pictures" with the camera or looking out a window through the binoculars.She's not a Dora fan, but the items have lent themselves nicely to imaginative play.I'm not sure why the backpack is hard plastic and doesn't have any straps.My daughter doesn't seem to mind. ...

This is an o.k. baby doll but not the best
Someone gave this to my daughter when she was close to a year old. She still has it, and she is 3...so it lasts through lots of play, but the person who said the rattle is too heavy is right!Also, I would not recommend this for small babies or even those who are under the age of 2 who are putting things in their mouths...I had to put it up for a while because of that, and then when she was older, it was much better for her.

Owwww!
That is one hard rattle! And it really makes a knock when it hurts your baby's head! No lie, that thing is heavy and if they pick it up it will nail them.

Plus, I think the doll needs more stuffing or something. It's weird how it's head is empty and you just feel the plastic face.

I would say they should change the age range to begin at 12 months when a baby is less likely to hurt herself.

Watch that Rattle!Way too heavy for this doll
We bought this for our infant at about 8 months old.I cannot tell you how many times that darn rattle hit her in the head.It isn't a "cuddly" doll at all.The rattle also unbalances the doll making it hard to hold.Cute doll overall, but they should get rid of that rattle or possibly replace it with a soft-side style rattle - not that hard 5 lb. rattle.You may be better off getting the gund "first baby" it is soft all over.

Although children typically fall in love with Winnie the Pooh characters during their toddler years, this infant-safe velour toy makes it possible for babies to become enchanted with the critters of the Hundred Acre Wood from the moment they are born. This adorable Pooh is made of soft velour that's perfect to cuddle with, and due to minimal polyester stuffing, he's easy to carry. The "silly" part is that he flops about and falls into funny positions when picked up and put down. Since he's surface washable, he can easily stay fresh and clean throughout the early years of hard loving. --Hannah Reynolds ... Read more

A must-have for a Pooh lover!
This Pooh is so cute and so soft. Not only do I like it (I am an unashamed Pooh fan myself!), but my daughter truly loves Pooh. (I thought she wouldn't like Pooh just because I love him so much, I did her nursery in Pooh, and bought her some Poohs ahead of time, so people said- she will probably not look twice at Pooh!) They were wrong, she LOVES Pooh toys and this one is so soft and cuddly. It has educational value because it interests your baby in the classic stories of A.A.Milne by introducing Pooh bear.

Pooh is a WONDERFUL addition to anyone's childhood, and this is a wonderful part of that.

Perfect first action figure....
My husband & I bought this on sale for our sons birthday in a few months.We tried the megaphone (they have a tester button on the package)it is really cool. I really think that my son will enjoy him.I agree with the reviewer about Billy reminding them of the old GI Joe dolls, but hopefully Billy is better made; I remember getting fingers pinched in my GI Joe dolls joints.My son is into firefighters now so he will be just perfect.

Loved it for a few minutes until the megaphone didn't work!
My son received this toy as a birthday gift and we couldn't get it out of the box fast enough.He was so excited and couldn't wait to play with it.It didn't take us long to figure out that the megaphone only partially worked.We couldn't talk into it like we were supposed to.I changed the batteries hoping that would help.Then it didn't work at all!I put different batteries in, changed them around, everything.I finally unscrewed the thing and looked at the wires.I was surprised to see the wires being held together with string and masking tape!Low and behold, a wire was lose.I tried to fix it and ended up breaking it entirely...within 10 minutes of having the toy.My son is so disappointed that I'll probably end up having to go buy a whole new one just for the darn megaphone!I'm going to see if Fisher-Price will send me a replacement part, but I'm not counting on it.

Big Billy Is A Big Hit!!
I purchased this item for my six year old son who is a die hard Rescue Heroes enthusiast. He LOVES it! The megaphone was a lot of fun for him, and he likes the idea of having a larger action hero to play with. For me and my husband, it was very reminiscent of our old GI Joe dolls. Rescue Heroes are great toys with an equally good message. We own most of the line, and Fisher Price should be applauded for not only making a quality toy at a reasonable cost, but for constantly evolving the line so there are always new things to buy at holiday and birthday time! ...

Despite his melancholy personality, Eeyore wins the heart of every visitor to the Hundred Acre Wood. This hapless donkey with the tacked-on tail embodies the inevitable downer days of childhood--"Nobody understands me, everything is terrible, and I think I'll just go mope in my room." This Soft 'n Silly Eeyore has a slight smile on his sweet bewildered face, sits in his characteristically slumped posture with forlorn eyes, and wears a bright pink ribbon on his tail. His ultra-soft velour body is surface washable, so he can retain his fresh fur even after numerous drools, stroller drops, and juice accidents. --Hannah Reynolds ... Read more
