What the manufacturer says
As the baby taps, letters, numbers, and patterns flash on the top of the drum. Listen to different drum sounds, and play one of four great learning modes - ABC, 123, Interactive Song, and Follow the Beat.
It comes complete with an easy-carry handle for little hands.
What our testers say
For help with hand-to-eye co-ordination, this toy is very good. The child watched the lights at the top of the drum when counting.
The music is good - the child started dancing and the other children were happy to watch.
The matching drum rhythm was rather difficult for the age of the children (18 months - 2 years), but the child was praised even if they didn't complete the sequence.
The recommended age group is too young - children of 6 months to 1 year would find this impossible.
