| SharryS's Full Review: Sesame Street - Elmo's Talking Driver |
We purchased the Elmo's Talking Driver for my 14 month old daughter. If you have gotten yourself accustomed to the noise of childrens toys this is a cute toy. It has very bright colors and chunky buttons which makes grasping a lot easier for those little hands.
The driver has many features to keep your little one interested. It was thought out well and with Elmo and his friends at the wheel children are instantly drawn to the driver.
The driver is made of durable plastic done with a white top and blue base. On the left side of the base is a yellow steering wheel with a blue horn that has Elmo's picture on it and when pressed you here Elmo saying "Beep beep coming through".
On the left side of the steering wheel is the green signal lever that can be pushed up or down and makes two dinging sounds. There is a red and green arrow on top that flash when the signal is pushed.
On the right side of the base is a yellow rectangular musical button with 2 blue musical notes on it and plays a little song when pushed.
Under the music button are three square buttons. A red button with Big Bird on it and when pushed you hear Big Bird saying "Buckle up", a yellow button with Cookie Monster who says "Me drive car" when pushed and a blue button with Ernie who says "Driving is fun" when pushed.
Below those buttons is a green speaker where you here all the sounds of the driver through which is why it tends to be a little loud, being right on top. There are no settings to change the volume.
Next to the speaker is a red handle that when you push up or down sounds like the revving of an engine.
Below that is a blue key that turns to the right and sounds like a car starting.
The Talking Driver runs on 3 AA batteries which were included with the wheel and so far have really stood the test of time. My daughter plays endlessly with this toy and we have not had to replace the batteries yet. The sound is still as loud as the day we purchased it.
All of the pieces are securely attached to the base and nothing is removable which is a great feature so nothing can be lost or a choking hazzard for small children. I highly recommend this toy for all children. They love the idea to be able to drive like Mommy and Daddy and what a great way to give them the fun their looking for.
