Fisher Price Tape Recorder

Pros: Our daughter still loves this product after almost 2 years.
Cons: None

My husband and I were desperate to find a birthday gift for our 4 year old daughter that would have more staying power than the average cheaply made toy and that would keep her interest for longer than a week.

We found our ideal gift in the...

Pros: Durable, easy to use
Cons: Uses up batteries fairly quickly

We received the Fisher Price tape recorder as a shower gift and it has turned out to be one of the best gifts ever. We've had it for over 2 1/2 years now and it's still as good as knew. I began using it as soon as my son was born to play classical music...

Pros: My kid loves it!
Cons: Cord unattaches, low battery life span

This gift we gave our child seemed to be a hit from day one. The plastic used is very durable, holding up to our 3 year olds frequent drops. He enjoys being able to insert his own tapes with ease and sing along with the songs. This toy has received great...

Pros: VERY DURABLE, easy to clean, Buttons are easy to push
Cons: Sort of heavy for small child

My daughter has loved her Fisher Price Tape recorder since she was about 6 months old. When she was on the floor playing I would put in a soft music tape. As she got older I bought silly song tapes for her to crawl to. Now that she's 19 months and...

Pros: DURABLE, Easy to use
Cons: None found

I bought this tape recorder about a year ago for use in my classroom. I am a preschool teacher and regular tape recorders are just not tough enough for preschoolers. This one has stood up to all the abuse and FUN that 25 preschoolers could deliver over...

Pros: Durable, big buttons for small hands, 1 tape storage, nice sound
Cons: Forward/ rewind buttons do not click in place, so that the child must hold them down to perform those functions

My husband and I chose this tape player mainly because of the Fisher Price name for our 2 1/2 year old son. He loves listening to tapes and singing along, and we felt it would be a well received item.

The player is very durable, has space to...

Pros: Easy to use & great sound
Cons: Some feedback on microphone

My daughter has had this since she was 1 1/2. She is now 2 1/2 & loves it. It it really easy to use & little hands can push the buttons & even put their on tapes in. The only feature she hasn't mastered is the record. She enjoys putting...

Pros: Kids can listen to their favorite music
Cons: no volume control on microphone

My two year old son fell in love with this toy while playing at a friend's house one day so we bought him one for Christmas. He still loves the toy because he loves listening to music in general. I like that we can play his favorite tapes in the house...

Pros: durable , creative fun, easy to use
Cons: young children can remove the tapes easily

We received this as a gift when our girls were 3 and 1 1/2 and they have loved it. It is quite durable - they have dropped it numerous times and it still works great (after 2 years of almost constant use). They listen to tapes and also use the microphone...

Pros: durable
Cons: batteries

This is the greatest. If you have a boy or a girl they will love it...my son thinks he is Elvis with the microphone. It is so durable. Ours has been knocked off shelves, thrown, kicked down the steps-batteries came out--and still it is working. It...

Pros: Cute, tough, great sound.
Cons: No radio. Eventually kids will want something new!

Let's face it. Kids toys today take all of the imagination out of things. Everything, including the diapers, seems to be battery operated today. Rather than have to make noises for your toys, they talk at you, beep, boop, and make all of the...

Pros: Easy to use; good sound quality; can use adapter instead of batteries
Cons: Adapter is sold separately.

I bought this tape recorder for my grandmother. She was an avid reader until she lost most of her vision to macular degeneration. She has discovered the joy of listening to talking books as well as music on this tape recorder. The large, different...

Pros: Great for kids of all ages!
Cons: None

My little girl got this gift for Christmas this year and she just fell in love with it.

My 9 year old even loves it. I have to sometimes remind him to share with his sister. I went out and bought some tapes to go in the recorder so that they...

Pros: kids love to talk into a microphone, works really well
Cons: none

When My sister and I were growing up together, there is 4 years between the two of us, and we use to have hours of fun with one of these.

Now today I was going through some boxes, and guess what I came across a tape of us together singing and...

Pros: Fun and easy to use, with minimal adult help.
Cons: Rewind / forward buttons have to be held down for whole rewind.

This is another great Fisher Price product. Tough, durable and easy for children to use. I bought it for my Five year old daughter after having had to return to the shop another model of child's tape recorder because it was faulty. She has found is easy...
