We didn't get this toy at first, we got another brand, that was a mistake. Came to our senses and got the FP Brilliant Basics.
We didn't even take it out of the box and my son was already all over it. He kept swinging the ball back and forth (there was a piece of plastic that held it to the stand). We took it out of the packaging and let him mess around. It illicit alot of giggles.
What he likes about it: the little people - when you push one down, the other pops up and music plays. Whenever the ball is "hit" it makes noises. The ball is held onto the stand so he can swing but the ball stays put.
What I like about it - it's going to grow with him! As he gets older and coordinated, the podium that holds the ball can be lifted to his "standing" height, and he can swing and hit the ball where the ball will actually go off the stand. (There's a little hole in the ball for the pin, but when the stand is lifted, the pin isn't there).
For the price of the toy - it's a great deal with the frills that he's accustomed to - the music, sound effects and the fun bright colors. Anything that keeps his interest beyond 10 minutes and has him going back to it means it's a MUST! We've got a very fickle baby.Get more detail about
