Tester's report

This is a soft, brightly-coloured toy to which our youngest children - aged six- to 18-months - were immediately attracted. They found it amusing and enjoyed the different sounds. It is detachable from its base, so more than one child can play with it at a time, which makes it useful for group play.

The children greatly enjoyed taking it apart and then letting an adult put it together again. We found that the separate pieces can also be worn - around arms, ankles, hands and heads! Another big plus is that it is easy to clean.
