Title: Extremely Disappointing and Frustrating Toy.
Review: I bought this toy for my 8-month-old daughter. Right away we discovered the most rediculous feature imaginable in a toy: namely, that in "music" mode, when the child pushes one of the letters that plays a new song, the child then naturally wants to spin the ball-- but doing so makes the song stop! The toy then reverts to one of 2 intensely boring melodies. For a child as young as mine who can spin the ball well but has difficulty pressing the letters, the toy only plays a couple of dull songs-- not much incentive to play with the toy. For a somewhat older child who CAN press the letters, there is a different tune for each letter-- but the tune stops as soon as you spin the ball! So, the child is punished for spinning the ball! I HATE this toy. In order for my daughter to hear a song, I have to prevent her from spinning the ball, and hold it still. More like punishment than fun. She has entirely stopped wanting to play with this toy.
