silly129's Full Review: LeapFrog Learn and Groove Musical Table
What is it?
The LeapFrog Learn and Groove Musical Table is a small toddler sized table that allows your little one to have fun by having different sounds/music that respond to the gadgets that you press. In addition to the funky tunes and funny sounds, your child will learn their ABCs, counting from 1 to 10, and also opposites (up vs. down, high vs. low, etc.)
The table has legs that are removable. It takes 3 AA batteries.
My thoughts...
My 10 month old is just learning to pull himself up to standing, and so I've been eyeing this toy for weeks hoping that it would go on sale. I was hesitant to purchase it full price for $40 in stores, so I was delighted to see a used one on craigslist for less than half the price! What surprised me about this toy was the variety of sounds/tunes/music that it played. At the center of the table is a "book" that you can flip between two pages - one page has the learning activities and the other page has the groovy music. So depending on which page of the book you are on, the sounds of all the buttons will differ.
I personally love the learning aspect of the table. It has a feature that counts from 1 to 10, and the alphabet is also sang in a fun manner. The table also has a little nook with a door, so it teaches the child "open" and "close". On the other hand, my son loves the funky tunes of this table! The first day that we bought this, my son spent a couple of hours enjoying all the buttons and sounds that they made. It was the first time I've ever seen him dance to music, so it was a lot of fun watching him enjoy his new toy. This toy is also perfect for playdates since you can have up to four toddlers, one on each side, playing. Also, I love that it takes AA batteries!
The only thing I didn't like is that the characters "book" are on an adhesive that is stuck to the plastic. Buying this second hand, the characters were faded. It would have been better if they had painted these directly onto the plastic instead of using a sticker.
