Got this as a gift, and took it back rather quickly. Something about his voice and what it did just was too wierd. I've seen similar toys, maybe next baby we will try those. But this just wasn't our style. We exchanged it for something much cooler!

My daughter got baby tad for christmas when she was six months old. It has truly grown with her. When she was little I would push the buttons for her and she named the shapes and LOVES the songs, but as she got bigger she loved pushing the lights herself, and of course giving kisses! Now three, it is the only toy she wont share with her baby sister, so now we get to buy one for her too! We tried to substitute with the fisher price learning puppy, and not even the neighbor kids will play with that one!

We have used the lullaby feature for my son since he was just a few months old, and I LOVE it! I turn it on to "6 minutes till night-night" and my son is out! We bring him on trips and it really helps my son get to sleep much better than when we haven't had it. My son is 17 months old now, and has only been interested in playing with the other features of baby Tad for a few months now. I like that it teaches shapes and colors. The volume is adjustable (on the battery pack- took me forever to find it), but it is still a bit loud for night time. I'd recommend this toy even if it only had the lullaby function, so all the rest is just bonus!

(Warning- don't keep this toy the crib with your toddler- the one and only time mine jumped out of his crib, Baby Tad gave him a boost. Thank goodness my son landed in a full laundry hamper!!!)

This Baby Tad doll is my son's favorite item. He loves giving it hugs and kisses. It is the best item we have to help him go to sleep each night also - "6 minutes till night night" and he's asleep! LeapFrog has stopped making this model (hopefully only for a short while), but I have gotten it as a gift for all of my friends and thier kids all love it too.

This is a toy a family memeber bought and I wasn't impressed. We gave it to our 13 month old and he loves it! It's been 2 months now and he plays with it every night and every morning in his crib. Now we need to get replacement batteries.
