4.0 out of 5 stars How to get the penguins to shut up!, November 6, 2007

Great toy, but as stated, the sqeaker has to go. I did this simply by taking it apart and removing it. It's easy enough to do, just take all the screws out (all you need is a phillips screwdriver)and pull the 2 peices apart. You'll see a small clear plastic "accordian-shaped" peice at the bottom near the bottom of the stairs, it will have a black horn-shaped peice attached to it. Unhook it from the arm that connects to it (i actually unhooked the arm also so it wasn't just flopping around in there) and voila, no more squeaky penguins!

Now the stairs that take the penguins up is still a bit loud, but not nearly as annoying as *squeak* *squeak* *squeak* *squeak* *squeak* *squeak* *squeak* *squeak* *squeak* *squeak* *squeak* *squeak* *squeak* *squeak* *sq...ok you get the idea.

I bought this toy for my 10 year old son with autism. He loves to watch the penguins in constant motion and luckily this is also a very duarable toy! It was easy to put together, and if my son can't break it no child can! We use it as an educational toy too, with different colored penguins we use sign language to identify each and also to learn how to sequence. A simple, cute, fun, durable toy.

My girls, ages 4 and 2 love "The Penguin Game." There really is no "game" here, it's just a cute thing to watch. My 4-year-old who is on the autistic spectrum just loves to watch the penguins go round and round. She finds it soothing. Sometimes she just likes to hear the noise running and doesn't watch the penguins. My 2-year-old (who doesn't put things in her mouth but still is not allowed to play with it unattended) likes to pick up the penguins and move them around to different areas on the track and let them go. This toy is worth the 16 or 17 bucks.
