Volume is too loud and ear piercing
Elmo started talking without touch activation- scared the hell out of me

My daughter received this when she was 3 months old. She loved it then and she loves it now at 6 1/2 months. Its converts easily to a different position so your baby can still play with it when they start to sit up, which my daughter prefers now that she’s getting older. I love the educational aspects and it really does teach your baby. For example, when Elmo says a color it lights up, and she already anticipates and knows which one is going to light up. The peek-a-boo game that Elmo does is fun too, and she loves it. I saw another post saying it was too loud, but the volume on ours was perfect. I get so many things done while she’s playing with this toy. It’s the best gift she’s received so far. Stock-up on AA batteries! :>

I bought the Elmo’s Musical Peek-a-Boo Gym for my son when he was 2 months old. It is great if you lay a soft blanket on the ground and lay the child on a boppy pillow, and the gym slides right over them. The music plays for 10 minutes and you would be surprised the things you can get done. There are different settings which allows the child to bat or kick these things hanging down. A song will play and go off until the baby kicks it again. My son loves it when he realizes that he made the music come on!

I purchased this toy when my daughter was 6 months old and she is now 9 months old and still loves it. The problems that I have with this toy are it will tell you to find the yellow lion, etc. and it won’t always register when you push it. I also don’t think it is balanced enough for a child to pull herself to standing on it. The day I brought home the toy was the day my daughter discovered she could use it to pull herself up. You have to be holding the back of the toy whenever she uses it. My other problem was when elmo plays peek a boo it takes a while for him to pop back up – my daughter is on to other things when he disappears for a few seconds. Other than those 3 things the toy is cute and fun and my daughter gets a big smile whenever she hears Elmo’s voice.

We received this as a gift four our 4-month-old son. He loved the Elmo and the peek-a-boo part didn’t even scare him. The variety of songs was great too. Unfortunately, he can only use the toy in the laying down position and the three hanging toys don’t work. The sensors that activate the music need to be pushed up but the baby is on his back, pulling down. Unless he hits the toy just right it doesn’t respond to his pulls. I could tell he was getting frustrated. I was wondering if they even testing this toy on any infants that couldn’t sit up yet. Truly a shame because he loved Elmo, but we will take this back and try a different gym that will interact with him.
