Elmo and Cookie Monster - together again.

This toy is cute. When you push Elmo's mouth, he says "Jiggly, Giggly! Ha ha ha ha!" as the ball vibrates. Push Cookie Monster's mouth, and he says "Shaky, Shaky! Ha ha ha ha! Whooooa!" If you pay too much attention to Elmo (press him 3 times in a row) Cookie says "Hello?" Likewise, if you press Cookie 3 times in a row, Elmo says, "Elmo's turn!" Push the two together and they say "Giggle Monsters!" and laugh.

This toy is not very soft (it's not plush) and the inner mechanics make it heavier than you would expect. The eyes and Elmo's nose make it pretty useless for rolling. But the sounds and vibrations make my twin 20-month old boys smile, and they play with it on occasion, but it doesn't keep them occupied for long stretches. As for durability, it appears well-made, but I don't think ours has been used enough to really put it to the test.

Overall, it's cute, but I think I like it more than the boys do.

A Kid's Review

= Durability:4.0 out of 5 stars  = Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars  = Educational:2.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Elmo & Cookie Monster Giggle Ball (Toy)

My daughter received this for her first birthday. It's really cute and she likes the vibrating, but truthfully I've probably played with it more than she has. The switches are tiny and have to be pressed with a moderate amount of pressure. My daughter hasn't been able to indpendently make it work. She wants to be independent and isn't really interested in hand over hand help so this toys gets limited play time.

2.0 out of 5 stars Elmo and Cookie Monster Giggle Ball loses..., January 15, 2007

This review is from: Elmo & Cookie Monster Giggle Ball (Toy)

My 18 month-old son received this as a Christmas gift. I don't know why this is marketed for children 18 months and older. It is heavy and is like carrying around a small cloth-covered bowling ball. It is so difficult to push the ball in order to get it to vibrate and make sounds. If I can hardly get it to respond, how can an 18 month-old child? Occasionally, it will just vibrate non-stop and won't do anything else. The giggling and vibrations are entertaining--but only for so long. I cannot recommend this toy to anyone...
