Playskool Busy Bouncin' Zoo By dmk417 on Jan 07, 2008 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

This was a CHristmas gift for my toddler, and at first it seemed like it would be a lot of fun. What one year old doesn't love to pound on things over and over? Bu, after a few minutes, you start to wonder, "well, now what?" It does ti the same thing time and again. You hit the button, an animal jumps up and makes a noise, and it plays a song. Lots of toys do that and more. I'm all for simplicity, but this is boredom in a cage. The hammer can be detached, leaving mom running all over the house looking for it when baby is actually interested in USING the darn thing. On the other hand, it is apparently a ton of fun to carry around by the handle. So, thanks, Playskool, for including a handy-dandy travel accessory. I just think this toy is better in theory.
