Product Description

Editorial Review

Sonny the Seal is an amusing variation on the "ready, aim, throw" games that have been around forever. Sonny sits on top of a yellow platform. When activated, he moves his head and neck back and forth tempting your child to toss a ring over his head. When a ring goes over his head and past his tail, Sonny barks with joy and claps his flippers--every success is immediately reinforced. He will teach your child invaluable eye-hand coordination skills and instill confidence at the same time. Sonny's three green and three orange lightweight rings will provide hours of indoor and outdoor fun. --Sandy Hirsch

From Parents' Choice®

Try to toss the rings around this motorized seal's neck as he bobs up, down and side-to-side. Succeed, and he'll bark and clap. First player to get three rings around Sonny's neck wins. NOTE: Kids as old as 8 years enjoyed this game. It became a test class's mascot. A Parents' Choice Recommendation. (Laura Spannagel, Parents' Choice, 1999)

This game is fun for about 5 minutes and the kids are tired of it and pull the rings apart. I would have been better off buying a set of rings. My 2 and 3 year old did find the game fun but it did not keep their attention for very long.

A 4 year old in a wheelchair loves it! Not very durable in that the rings break apart pretty quickly and become less and less stable as thrown more! However, it didn't keep this child from wanting to play over and over! Great for hand and eye coordination.

Our boys like Sonny but his flippers just won't stay on! The rings come in 2 halves and don't stay together at all. Sonny's barking and movements are cute but the kids need constant help with putting the flippers back on and the rings together.
