Customer Review: Great gift choice!
Summary: 5 Stars
We got this toy when my son was just 8 months. He fell in love with it almost immediately and played with it pretty steadily (I rotate his toys monthly/bi-monthly but this was always such a favorite it almost never got put away) until he was 3 years old. Even now at 3 1/2 we still have not given it away because he still occasionally likes to play with it and every time I broach the subject he does not want to part with it.
In the last three years this toy has seen A LOT of daily use, not just from my son but visiting children as well. And it is still going strong! The only thing really "wrong" with it after all this time and use is that some of the blue paint is worn off on the engine part of the train. The music/sound parts still play clearly, it still moves fine, nothing is cracked or broken on the train, and the animals are still all intact and look practically new. My son has even stood inside the engine part more times then I can remember and it did not break or damage the ability for the train to play a song when the giraffe is placed inside it. In my opinion this toy is DURABLE. And it does not eat a lot of batteries because it shuts itself off (we use rechargables and have changed them 4-5 times since we've had it).
Out of all the toys my son has had in the past three years, this is probably my favorite because it is such a good bargain! It lasts so long and is played with so long! Toys are so expensive in general nowadays that I love the ones that I really feel were worth the money I spent, and this is one of those toys!
I would choose this as a great first birthday present for any child! But the animals could be played with as soon as child can sit up and pick up a toy with a little weight, the train moving is a good incentive for new crawlers and walkers to chase it, and the songs seem to be catchy and enjoyed by 1-2 year-olds a lot. The animals are colorful and fun to look at for babies, the monkey is a rattle, they click when their legs and heads are moved, and parts like the elephant's ears are fun for babies to chew on. The train has 'leaves' that children can spin, a blunt 'hook' to attach the two pieces together, a bird on a small spring, the monkey tail hooks onto the bar at the back, and the steam pipe makes the animal noises. So it has some fine motor skill-building fun built into it as well as the movement and fun songs. The three little 'compartments' for the animals could easily be used to introduce sorting and placing objects in and taking objects out if you want to extend the learning abilities of the toy (not to mention the colors and shapes inherent in the toy). The bottom line is I have yet to see a toddler who was not engaged by this toy as soon as they heard and saw it moving across a room!
As a parent I did not find it over-loud or too quiet (too-quiet meaning it doesn't attract the child's attention). My husband found it loud at first but adjusted quickly to it, especially when compared to some other toys my son has received. The speaker is a circle on the front of the train engine and it would not be difficult to cover it with a round sticker to mute the music a little if that was a concern. It has an off-switch (you don't realize how important that can be until you get a musical/noisy toy without one!) that is easy to reach and activate. There is an off-switch for the movement part as well. And finally, the train will move on regular carpet as well as hard floors.
Overall I'd say this is a good bet for a toy a toddler would enjoy and play with a lot.
