Title: Weak for a little tike
Review: I bought this toy for my son, who is younger than the 3+ age requirement, but is smart enough to run a leap pad so surely he can run a tape player. My largest complaint is that for a children's toy it should be able to handle a few knocks. Within 5 minutes of my putting in the new shinny batteries, the tape player fell over (it does not stand well because of its base) and all the batteries fell out as well as the tape. My son did love the microphone, but you practically have to eat it to get it to pick up your voice. Also, this may be a battery saving device, but the micrphone wouldn't work unless a tape was playing. The directions said you could use the microphone by "turning it on" without a tape, but ours apparently did not have that feature.Overall, I think that since all children (and adults from time to time) drop things, a toy's battery section should be screwed on. What is the point of giving a child a toy if every 10 minutes he needs the batteries reloaded.
Is the review positive or negative?
