VTech Press n Play Lights Ball

Vetch press and play light ball. Yes another toy I spoilt my grandson with. I bought this for Adrian when he was about 3 months old it costs about £13- £ 15 . All babies love balls and babies like sound it attracts their attention. This ball has a switch on it the volume of the sounds it makes can be switched to loud or quiet or can be switched off. There is a talk setting or a music setting. This is a colourful ball, which has six star shaped buttons on its side. These are activated when it rolls on them or they are pressed down. The buttons have pictures on them a cat, and a dog, a teddy bear people-waving hello and goodbye in the centre ...  Read the complete review

Call me old fashioned but I just do not like all these electronic toys that have flashing lights, play tunes and have awful American accents. I like a toy to challenge the mind of youngsters, I suppose that is the teacher in me coming out. The V Tech ball was bought for my son as a gift.

As with all the VTech toys the voice is familiar, and also the words and songs are the same as other VTech toys, but its a good little toy none-the-less.

My son has one of these and it was my other sons before him.This toy like all toys has it's advantages and dissadvantages but in this case the good outweigh the bad.The ball is great for babies of all ages,when my son was about 3 months old we used to place it at his feet while he was in his bouncy chair and he loved when he kicked his feet and the music kicked off! It helped him to co-ordinate his leg movements and his legs gained alot of strength so he was an early walker!When he had outgrown his bouncy chair and began the joy of crawling he would sit and play with his ball for hours pushing it around the room and learning all the different buttons.With all the ...  Read the complete review
