An Electronic Ball?

by Lilsmudge , Jan 29 '00
Pros: attention grabber
Cons: children want to bounce it, names too jumbled when you roll it, can be annoying
This VTech toy was bought for our son after he enjoyed the first one so much. We had been so thrilled with our first VTech toy and had told everyone about it, so it was no surprise to see this as a gift.

However, I was not as impressed as I...
