My daughter got this for her 6th birthday. It was purchased in a store where the packaging allows people to try the toy's recording device before buying. Let's just say, that this toy must have been on the front of the shelf where EVERYONE was testing it out because the batteries on one of the recording devices was dead already. It requires 3 "button cell" watch batteries, which after trying 2 stores, we were able to replace for $3 a battery (yes, $9 total not including gas for the car) and that is just for the one device, the toy comes with 2 such devices!! That's a total of $18 just for batteries. My two girls do love this toy, however, and the recording devices are fun and seem to work well. The purse it comes with is made of very thin, cheap material. The item comes with a paper that says "We listen to you!" with a website for an online survey of this product. Guess what? The website does not work!! Again, it's a fun toy, but quite an investment!

My daughter adores her Barbie Diaries Charms Purse. She and her friends love recording little messages. The recorders are very easy to use and can be turned-off to extend battery life. It is a fun accessory!

My daughter is 6 and loves the secret message butterfly recorders.She and her friend will record and playback messges and giggle the whole time. We even bought a set for her friend's birthday. The purse is an added bonus. Well worth the price.
