Love to Dance Bear

Pros: Fun for toddlers, always a great way to start your child's day!
Cons: No on/off switch

My daughter Emily, who will be 22 months old soon, has watched "Bear in the Big Blue House" for about a year now. She is fascinated with the music, the scenery, and cannot get enough of Bear himself! Some of her very first words have been "Bear," "Ojo"...

Pros: Cute, plays music, it's Bear!
Cons: Loud ( to most - I don't notice it much)

Our son has several loves in his life. Of course, his mommy and daddy, but he has a couple others as well. If you have read any of my reviews before, you would know that one is Blues Clues. The other is Bear in the Big Blue House.

It seemed...

Pros: Soft and cute and watching my niece dance to the commercial.
Cons: Over priced for only playing one song.

I decided to get this bear for my niece for Christmas. They must play the commercial for this toy every 10 minutes. She is 2 and a half and is SO cute when she sees the commercial. She will stop doing whatever it is she is doing and start to sing and...

Pros: Highly entertaining and my kids can repeat the song without any problems. Anything that gets my son to sing is a good thing.
Cons: Won't necessarily teach your child to cha cha.

I laughed out loud when I first saw those dancing Santa Claus dolls a year or two ago. These wiggling, jolly Santa’s were probably a huge hit at the American International TOY FAIR and toy buyers snapped them up. I have no idea how their sales numbers...

Pros: Looks like Bear, Sings like Bear, Steady on his feet.
Cons: Only one song, not soft and cuddly

A barking Pluto, a bouncing Tigger, and a singing Ernie all grace my son's bedroom courtesy of his older brother. Having already purchased his Christmas presents and coupled with the thirty dollar price tag, Love To Dance Bear was not going to be...

Pros: fun songs, cute action, a hit for Bear fans
Cons: runs batteries down pretty fast

The Bear in the Big Blue House phenomenon hit our home over a year ago and we, like many parents, have been buying all the Bear in the Big Blue House products that we can find! There are so many neat toys and products available that it can be hard to...

Pros: well-made, remains standing once out of the box, sings and dances to a familiar song from the show Bear in the Big Blue House
Cons: not enough "plush" feel -- can feel the mechanism that makes it dance

My daughter, at age 13 months now, loves Bear in the Big Blue House. If you've read many of my reviews, a good many of my latest ones have involved this seven foot brown bear and his friends because of the many Bear in the Big Blue House products my...

Pros: cute, cuddly, dances
Cons: can be loud, and only plays one song

Santa- and the grandparents- were very good to my son this year. He received all kinds of toys, but one of the ones that got the most attention, and a positive reaction, was Love To Dance Bear.

My son is nine months old, and he loves Bear....

Pros: safe and cute
Cons: only plays one song

The Love to Dance Bear is the character from the children’s show Bear in the Big Blue House. He’s a loveable, fuzzy, cuddly bear. Love to Dance Bear is specified for children 18 months and older, but my 10 month old loves it! {And I think...

Pros: A favorite friend dancing to a lively tune! Meg loves it!
Cons: The price is a bit high.

My 3 1/2 year old daughter LOVES Bear in the Big Blue House! She is an avid fan, watches the show every day. One of her favorites parts of the show is when they dance -- particularly the Bear Cha Cha Cha. For her to now have her very own toy that sings...

Pros: Cute, fun for toddlers!
Cons: Only knows one song

Loves to Dance Bear may be limited as to what he can actually do, but apparently this is of little consequence when you are 11 months or 9 months old.

My baby nephew received Bear as a Christmas gift. This nephew is very, very fond of Bear; it...

Pros: Great song, looks and sounds just like the bear
Cons: Falls over easily, hard mechanics inside make it not too cuddly

This is my favourite toy that our one year old got this year. Actually, she's 15 months, and a little short of the 18 month guideline, but she is a big bear fan (just like mum and dad!) and we figured she was ready for him.

Oh, we love this...

Pros: Cute and soft to touch
Cons: Does not say or do enough things.

Reason For Purchase.

For two reasons, the first has to do with the topic of getting a three year old boy to expand on the number of words he can say [You can read all about our effort to do this in the review I wrote about Ask Me...

Pros: cute, dances
Cons: heavy,falls over easy, not for every day play

My daughter got the "Let's Dance Bear " for Christmas this year from her grandmother. We watch bear in the big blue house every day so I figured my daughter would love it. It looks really cute dancing while still in the box, we should have left it there!...

Pros: Cute, cuddly, dances, sings, durable.
Cons: Very limited features, sings part of the song

Now here is a great toy. My two-year-old daughter received her Bear for Christmas Eve. It was not long, and she was dancing with him, pausing only to make him sing again. She is a fan of Bear in the Big Blue House. I like the fact that he is soft...
