I bought this for my 2 year old daughter. She loves it. Its a little hard talking on the mic but enough for my daughter to hear herself and not be heard around in other rooms. The only thing I would change on this product is making microphone cord a little longer. Otherwise, its a great gift.

This thing is soooo annoying! Why is there no volume control?!?! It's just loud and LOUD... seriously! I love the backyardigans but really? It even hurts my son's ears-- does it really need to be this loud? It's not like the kids can go very far from it with the tiny little cord that's attached to the microphone! It's not a very well thought out toy (sad to say) had hoped it would be a favorite... but we just keep it turned off ALL THE TIME

This toy is awesome! I am a foster parent, and, as a result, this toy has fallen into many little hands. I have two little ones that constantly fight over this. They are one and two. My house is bursting at the seams with toys, but this is currently my two-year-old's favorite toy. He calls it Tasha...how cute is that?
Anyway, today, we had a catastrophe...it stopped playing. I am pretty sure that it took one drop too many. I am here to purchase two more so the kids will quit fighting.
Let me address a few issues: 1) the volume...if you have little ones, I don't know how you can complain. The volume is NOT excessively loud at all. 2)the microphone cord is too short in my opinion, but at least I don't worry about them wrapping it around their necks. 3) The songs are cute; the toy, like the show, introduces the kids to music genres they may not normally learn about.
If your kids are fans of the show, get this toy.

I just bought this item for an upcoming trip where we will be driving from NM to WI then to PA and then back to NM, with a 22-month old. This is one of the many new toys and toy-like items I am gathering for my "bag of tricks" to keep him happy during the long trip. I can't wait to see his face when he first starts playing with it. I am sure he is going to love it, and we've never even seen the Backyardingans! I do agree that the unit is very loud, but face it folks, that can be remedied with a simple piece of duck-tape over the speaker! Most problems come with an easy fix if you just take the time to think about it.

After reading the other reviews, I would say that perhaps this is a toy geared for the younger side of the suggested age. I didn't notice that this was particularly loud because I LOVE Backyardigans music, possibly more than my kids. I spend a little time each day singing the songs with and to my 17 month old because he loves the show so much, and we play the music loud at home.
My 4 kids range from 17 months up to 10 yrs, and I have caught my older kids with this toy. I am constantly reminding them it is the baby's toy, and we have a real karaoke system for the older kids. I think part of the charm of this toy is that it has songs that are from the show and not new songs kids wouldn't know. I think between grandparents who bought the toy and us at home, we have played with this as much as our 17 month old!
I think for a toddler who loves Backyardigans, or who you want to love them, this is a perfect toy for them.
