Amazon.com Product Description

Dora the Explorer is off on another adventure. This time, she is teaching children the value of money with her very own talking cash register. It comes to life with pretend shopping trips and bilingual phrases to send kids on their own shopping trip. They can use Dora dollars or even swipe their own Dora credit card. As a real working cash register, it has a credit card tablet for kids to sign their name, just like adults! And to help Dora with her shopping, they can scan bar codes on the price tags or in the adventure book. This toy provides hours of amusement and the children can even act like different customers using the dress-up accessories provided. Kids ages three through eight will have lots of fun as they shop with Dora.

A Shopping Spree with Dora
A scanner and microphone, credit card tablet, and keypad make this cash register life-like and entertaining. Let the shopping begin! First, insert the catalog, scan the barcodes, and add up the total. Then, pay with the play money or swipe the Dora credit card. The scanner can be a bit tricky to use; the arrows on the top of the scanner must be aligned with the arrows printed on the barcodes. In addition, make sure that the scanner is pressed firmly against the barcode. There are 10 different shopping adventures and over 50 items to scan for hours of amusement. And kids can clip the price tags to home items, then by them back. This talking cash register comes with over 25 play pieces and uses four AA batteries (included).

Features
This item won the Hot Toy award in 2006 from Toys R Us. Children love to use the keypad and credit card tablet, but what really appeals to them is the unique barcode scanner. As an educational toy, the cash register speaks English and Spanish phrases, and play money in bright colors teach the youngsters how to budget. Plus, various dress-up accessories foster the child's creative side for hours of amusement. Little explorers learn the value of money with this innovative, award-winning toy.

3.0 out of 5 stars Had to return three times!, November 13, 2006

My daughter loves this toy, but I had to take it back three times to Walmart. First time, it wasn't scanning the items correctly, and the other two times it wouldnt work anymore after I took the tag out of the back by the batteries. I made sure I took the toy out of the box and checked it at the store before I brought it home this time. I'd give it more stars if it wasn't for the trips to the customer service line.

4.0 out of 5 stars Big hit with our 4 year Daughter!, January 12, 2007

This review is from: Fisher-Price Dora's Talking Cash Register (Toy)

From our daughter's perspective this is a huge hit!! She loves talking on the microphone, scanning the tags and paying with the Dora Dollars. She loves that she can put the extra tags on some of her own stuff and then "buy" them.
From a mom's perspective there needs to be a volume control, the scanner needs to work a bit better. Like other reviewers have said it doesn't always scan right. The only way to get it to work good is to lay the tag flat and line up the arrows exactly. Easy for an adult not so easy for a little kid. Also all of the extra pieces are great and add to the fun but there is no place to store them. And yes the crown IS strangely way too small!!
All in all this is a great toy that is a lot of fun to play with and a great way to spark imaginary play.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Big Hit on Christmas Morning!, January 9, 2007

This review is from: Fisher-Price Dora's Talking Cash Register (Toy)

My daughter is six years old and I was actually concerned that this toy might be a little young for her. But she had asked for a cash register and I loved that this one came with items to purchase that had price tags on them that could be scanned. Well, she loves it too! She and her friend from next door played with this for hours Christmas day. They both loved talking into the microphone ("clean up on aisle four" was the mantra for the day!). The games and activities are quite educational. They took turns being the "buyer" and the "seller" and I heard them discussing price and change in both English and Spanish along with Dora. The toy is sturdy and well made and so far works perfectly. I do wish they had included a bag or container for all the cute little accessories, but we took care of it ourselves. Overall a great toy!
