Cheap Vtech Move & Crawl Ball Review
First the downsides:
1) the ball is very heavy. It always seems like it's prone to cause injuries due to its heft (but this has never been an actual problem).
2) I don't really think this does anything to encourage crawling. My crawling son ignores it. His sitting twin is the one who loves it (but never tries to crawl after it)
3) the voice is pretty annoying (par for the course with this type of toy).
That said, this is still a definite keeper at my house.
For whatever reason, one of my sons (9 months old currently) has really taken to it, since around 6 or 7 months (when he started sitting). He doesn't quite get how to press the buttons-- he just mashes the whole ball with his hands, slapping it until he gets the desired response. (But, hey, it works). He doesn't give a hoot about the times it tells you "number 3" or "mooooo" The only thing he cares about is hitting it over and over again until it plays a song (which comes up every 6th sound, or nearly so). Then from the rocks.
