5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect Toy!, October 7, 2005

This review is from: Learn Through Music Plus System (Toy)

I cannot say enough great things about this toy.

I have purchased/received multiple toys of a similar nature including the Little Touch LeapPad and the PowerTouch Baby systems and the Learn Through Music system beats them hands-down.

Whereas the other toys were either difficult for my toddler to manipulate, were flimsy, were not durable, were expensive, etc. the LTM system has overcome all of those problems.

The system itself is very easy to use--insert a (sturdy) cartridge (of which there are a ton of titles and can be gotten for as little as $10), which then "clicks" in so it cannot be removed easily by little ones but easily by adults, press one of the bright arrow buttons and presto! Touching practically anywhere on the screen causes it to light up, and either play an associated song or describe the picture. The cartridges are "scroll" screens and pressing an arrow button causes the page to "turn." Each cartridge has several pages filled with so many different learning activities, picture recognition, and songs (the Dora cartridge even identifies the pictures in Spanish and English) that as a parent even I don't get tired of it!

The system has different volume levels which is a blessing for any parent. Also, it has different modes--music and quiz. The music mode is great for younger children and the quiz mode is perfect for those children slightly older who can follow along with the games and have greater cognitive skills.

My only complaint is that the microphone on my child's broke within the first couple of weeks, but honestly, since it always got the "feedback squeak" because my child insisted on putting it in their mouth to talk into the mic, it's not much of a complaint at all.

As far as sturdiness--this toy has been stood on, dropped, sat on, pounded with other toys, had juice poured on it, and, on one memorable occasion, was "fed" cheerios. However, it cleaned up easily and is still in perfect working condition.

Both my child and I love this toy, you and your child will as well!

5.0 out of 5 stars learning through music, October 18, 2003

This review is from: Learn Through Music Plus System (Toy)

THIS IS THE BEST TOY! I can not even explain how much we love it. My 4year old "special needs" daughter has a very hard time finding toys that she can actually play with or that she likes and for the first time this year we found a toy-that she LOVES. Her older sister (6yrs) also really likes it. It is easy, fun, interesting, musical, educational--it is truly a wonderful toy, worth every penny. I have not seen the Barney one, but am hoping it will be in stores soon...

5.0 out of 5 stars Must Have Learning Toy!, October 10, 2003

This review is from: Learn Through Music Plus System (Toy)

The Learn Through Music toy from fisher-Price is a must have learning toy for children. This toy is innovative, yet simple. The concept is perfect for our son because he loves music and for him to learn these basic learning lessons such as letters, numbers and shapes to the music of his favorite friends from tv is ideal! We purchased the toy with Elmo, but we had to go back and buy the Blues Clues and Dora Explorer ones. For $10.00 each, these are worth every dollar because the learning stimulates my son and encourages him to learn more. The information on the box indicates there is a Barney version, but we have not been able to find this yet. We hope to see more in time for Christmas.
