Advantages: You can't help but laugh at it. My little girl loves it

Disadvantages: You can get fed up of hearing the same tune over and over

Myself and my partner recently went to a large Tesco store (one that sells loads of toys) and we couldn't resist having a look to see what we could purchase for our little girl (six months old), I was looking at all of the soft toys when my partner spotted a bright pink plastic pig.

I wasn't that impressed with it at first but then my partner pushed the pigs nose and it started to oink and then vibrated (this lasted for about five seconds) he then pressed the nose again and it started to jump about, giggle and play a tune (this lasted for about 10 seconds), it instantly made me laugh, we showed it to our daughter who loved it so we bought it.

The pig is a Fisher Price Bounce and Giggle Pig, its bright pink with a blue base (makes it look like its wearing shorts), has one green ear and one yellow ear and a little bit of purple hair in-between (two bits of ribbon), it has two large soft rubber feet at the bottom and a small tail at the back which enables the pig to sit down (it also has two other feet about halfway up but these don't do anything). It has two big eyes and a big smiley mouth and in the middle is a soft rubber nose which when pushed makes the pig giggle and vibrate etc.

The nose is a soft rubber material and is very easy to push, my little girl can activate it quite easily (usually with her forehead though). This toy is suitable for 6 months +, there does not appear to be any bits that will come off easy, I have pulled everything on it with all my strength and nothing has broken yet, at first I was concerned about the hair but this seems to be securely in place.

There are other animals available, you can get the pig (which we bought), there is a cow which is black and white with red shorts a blue ear, a red ear and red hair and there is an elephant which is bright blue with green shorts a red ear, a purple ear and yellow hair. Each toy makes the relevant noise for that animal. All three animals are the same size which is - approx 13cm wide and 13cm high.

They need three AA batteries (mine came with these already supplied). They also have a on off switch so when they are not in use you can switch them off to save the batteries. We have had this toy for around a month now and its still going strong on the original batteries.

This has to be my little girl's favorite toy at the moment, she is constantly activating it and when it's vibrating she holds on tight and laughs her head off.

This toy cost me £9.97 in Tesco and I used my vouchers which I doubled up so I didn't really cost me anything. They are also available on Amazon for £9.99.

Summary: A great little toy that makes my little girl laugh her head of
