5.0 out of 5 stars
Easy to Program, November 3, 2005
= Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars = Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars = Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Plush Elmo Knows Your Name (Toy)
I bought Elmo Knows your Name for my 16 month old as a Christmas present. I love that you can program Elmo before you give him as a gift. It is very easy to program, you have options of foods your child likes to eat, his schedule, birthday, names of people in your family, on and on. Elmo is soft and cuddly and when my son opens Elmo on Christmas he will already know Ethan's name, I can't wait! Great Toy!

This review is from: Plush Elmo Knows Your Name (Toy)
I wrote a review on this toy before I programed it based off of the demo at Toys R Us. I had to delete it. I still think it says the name really well, but it doesn't do NEAR as much as I thought it would. The box says he says over 100 things, but that means options of things, not things you can program at once. You can pick three names he says other than your child's name. So pretty much, Mommy, Daddy, and one family or friend unless you're in a single parent home. You can only have one song, one story, and one game programed at a time. You only get five choices in each catagory too. I thought there might be some children's favorite song choices (Twinkle Twinkle, Itsy Bitsy Spider, etc.) but there's only things directly from Sesame Street. That's ok, just thought there'd be more choices. Also, the schedule is a little limited. You can only schedule one nap and because of our schedule, our son goes to bed at 10. It only goes to 9. I still think it's a very cute toy, but the advertisement is kind of misleading. One last thing is, it's a little hard to find one that doesn't have a cleft lip or stitches popping on it's nose. They seem to have spent more time making the voice box than worrying about Elmo's body. The fur is VERY soft though and he doesn't feel hard like a lot of electric plushes. I see why it was only $40 now, even though that seems a bit much for the options. I guess I was just too excited. My son will still like it I think. I'm sorry if this seemed to negative, I just want people to know what this doll really does and doesn't do.

This review is from: Plush Elmo Knows Your Name (Toy)
I WAS IN TOYS R US TODAY AND SAW A DISPLAY FOR THESE DOLLS. U CAN PROGRAM THE DISPLAY TO SAMPLE HOW YOUR CHILD'S NAME WOULD SOUND IF U PURCHASED ONE OF THESE DOLLS (ELMO, DORA, OR POOH) MY SON'S NAME IS DOMENIC BUT WINNIE THE POOH SAID DOMENIC FUNNY, DORA DIDN'T SOUND LIKE IT AT ALL!!!! BUT THE ELMO ONE SAYS HIS NAME PERFECT. I WOULD RECOMMEND TRYING THE DISPLAY IN THE STORE FOR YOUR CHILD'S NAME BEFORE PURCHASING ONE OF THESE JUST TO MAKE SURE.
