We received this Vtech Move & Crawl Ball from a friend, so we did not waste the $14 on it. While it entertained our baby for a few weeks (it rolls on its own!) we found it odd that it says things like "Where's the kitty?" and then you hit the kitty and... nothing. No reward! "Where's the number 3?" Hit number 3, and, nope. Our little one year-old liked to chase it around the kitchen floor and giggle at it. He then picked it up and threw it. And picked it up and dropped it. And dropped it and tossed it some more. And I was thinking how glad I was that we chose to NOT remodel our kitchen floor with real ceramic tile, as much as he was banging the ball around. Even so, he managed to break the thing. Silly me, I thought toys meant for toddlers would be indestructible. Guess it depends on the kid. He'll be bummed that the ball is gone, but I'll be happy to not hear that damn instrumental toy version of "For he's a jolly good fellow" again!
