Inspires and Delights Babies Through Musical Discovery
The Little Superstar Jammin' Band Musical Microphone features a real working microphone that gently amplifies your baby's voice, lights up, and talks. The microphone plays six sing-along songs and four karaoke tunes -- it even has a build-a-song option. The musical activity center comes with a separate tambourine and maraca that hang from the sides and can be removed for playtime.<p><b>Two Modes of Interaction
Offering two modes of interaction, the Jammin' Band Musical Microphone lets you choose between sing-along fun and musical discovery. In sing-along mode, babies can press the song-select button to hear a song, or they can sing into the microphone to hear their voice. Your little one can also press the piano keys, tap the drum, or spin the roller on the guitar to hear the sound each instrument plays.

The musical discovery mode is nearly identical to the sing-along mode -- in fact, our reviewers had difficulty telling the two modes apart. However, your baby should enjoy the musical discovery mode just as much. Children can activate the instruments to play a little ditty, press the song-select button to hear musical phrases, or choose an instrument to build their own song. Also, children can sing into the microphone to hear their voice and a fun response.

Designed to Grow with Your Baby
While entertaining for babies, this toy will grow right along with your child. Little ones can sit and enjoy the busy activities and sounds, and as they get bigger, they can stand and sing with music, sounds, and phrases playing from the interactive microphone. An easy height adjustment lets you switch the toy from sitting to standing position as your child grows -- the microphone angle also adjusts for your child's height.<p><b>Loved by Babies and Parents Alike
With no small parts or sharp corners, the Jammin' Band Musical Microphone is a safe durable toy parents can give their child. A sturdy footed base steadies the activity center, and a handle on the front supports any child pulling him- or herself up to stand and play. <p> And, because this unit is self-contained, you won't have to worry about lots of stray pieces cluttering up your home. For further convenience, this toy is incredibly easy to assemble and maintain -- just wipe with a clean cloth that's been dampened with a mild soap and water solution.<p> But the best feature parents and adults will appreciate is the volume switch that lets them choose between low and high volume. There's also a power switch to completely turn off the activity center as a battery-saving option.

Encourages Developing Skills<br> The Jammin' Band Musical Microphone encourages your baby's developing skills through interactive play. The activity center enhances fine motor skills with hands-on activities, and it fosters coordination and gross motor skills as your baby learns to stand and balance. Additionally, this toy inspires the senses with flashing lights and bright colors that offer visual stimulation, as well as lively music, songs, sounds, and speech that help enhance your baby's auditory and language skills.

What's in the Box
Little Superstar Jammin' Band Musical Microphone, four "AA" batteries, and screws.

The sturdy green recycling truck from innovative toymakers Sprig is made of their trademarked "Stigwood" -- an eco-friendly composite of reclaimed wood and recycled plastic. Like other Sprig toys, it's not painted. Instead, it's dyed during the production process with safe pigments that have no heavy metals in them. This truck is good for the environment, and a joy to play with, too. A recycling bin is included that can be picked up and emptied into the truck, and there are plenty of other moving parts to keep children ages two and older entertained. <p><table align="right" border="0" cellpadding="10" cellspacing="0" width="250">

<strong>The Good: Moving parts function smoothly and mimic a real recycling truck.

<strong>In a Nutshell: Eco-friendly truck that will stand up to rough play and become a favorite toy.
<strong>Expertly Crafted Truck is Ready for Rough-and-Tumble Play<br /> All the parts on this expertly crafted truck function well, from the big tires to the mechanism that empties the recycling bin. The Sprigwood material is durable and sturdy, and all the parts will stand up to rough play. The levers and knobs that control the truck's mechanisms are big and easy to grasp -- just the right size for a child's hand.<p>The truck is a cheerful green color flecked with bits of sawdust, which makes a nice change from the shiny, cheap plastic seen in so many toys today. The garbage can is the only small, detachable part, and it could get lost if kids don't pay attention.

Teaches Kids About Recycling<br /> The truck can do everything a real recycling truck can do, including emptying a recycling bin into the back of the truck (The child does have to pick up and secure the bin to the truck). It can also dump all its contents when your child pulls on a lever. A bigger lever pulls the body of the truck back up so it can continue on to pick up more recycling. The truck moves smoothly when pushed. Kids will have so much fun playing with this lifelike truck that they'll naturally become curious about recycling.

About Sprig
Eco-conscious toymaker Sprig was born when three toy designers realized what an appalling effect traditional toy manufacturing had on the environment. After observing firsthand how toys got made, they understood that the process employed by the factories had a harmful impact on nearby air, soil, water, and plants. They were also disturbed by the emerging "watch-me" trend in electronic toys that encouraged kids to be more passive in their play. So in 2007, these three designers joined forces to create Sprig, which allowed them to build battery-free, eco-friendly, paint-free, kid-powered toys.
