DITTY BIRDToddler Musical Books | Fun Classical Music & Nursery Rhymes | Mozart's Masterpieces | Interactive for 1-3 Year Olds | Sturdy Sound Books

My grandson had one of these books and loved it so much he played it everyday. He received several more for his 1st birthday. The buttons are technically just touch sensors so all they have to do is touch it to get the song to play. He easily finds the sensors on each page, they are all in different spots. The only thing is the child singing the songs has an English accent, we are in the US so... We were laughing and a little concerned since he is not quite talking yet he might pick up the English accent. He plays with these books every day. The only thing is on a couple the battery went dead pretty quickly, fortunately I found replacements on Amazon at a decent price, we replaced the battery and it's playing well and for quite a while now. When the battery starts to run out it plays the first line of the song and then kind of droned off, so if that happens just replace the battery. My recommendation is buy the pack of replacement batteries with the book, you'll be glad you did, they get upset when their favorite book stops working. Here are the batteries we used: 20 Pack Button Cell Batteries 1.5V Alkaline AG10 189 389 LR1130 With Long Shelf Life Sold by: RETAOCE

Bought it for my niece who lives in England. LOL. This came from England originally but it was cheaper to order on Amazon here and send than it was to order on Amazon UK and pay their outrageous postage to England address and money conversion fees. My niece loves these books. She reads them by herself (nice thick cardboard) and has learned how to make the music start. I would say this has got to be the best thing out there for toddlers beginning to learn how to talk. We sent both the classical music (per request of her Mom) and the simple song rhymes (wheels on the bus, etc) . Of course, the simple songs are the biggest hit. She tries to mimic some of the sounds. Would never hesitate to purchase this again for a toddler.

Grandson loves these books, even has favorite song at 16 months! So much better than silly chirping birds. Educational. Classical music or silly noise...He plays with it so much batteries run out quick.

This is the secondClassical Music Sound Book I bought for my 13 month grandson. The first one got lost after a couple months. He loved it so much that I had to buy another one. It amazes me that he can find the button to press on each page. ( I have to search for it at times.) He is a music lover and the music calms him.

My son got Ditty Bird for his birthday and loved it. It traveled with us a month later on vacation and quit working. We assumed something happened to it while we were traveling. After replacing the batteries, it worked for one day and then stopped working again. We finally got around to ordering it again. It arrived Monday, my son was so excited and loved playing the music. It is now Wednesday, two days later, and stopped working. He’s so disappointed and so are we. Great idea but poor quality.UPDATE:Melanie from Ditty Bird reached out and even sent us a replacement book. She delivers great customer service and follow up. She informed us of a supplier issue that impacted the batteries on this book, and recommends that we buy some backups to have on hand. We will definitely look into doing that. Buy the book - it is great. Just know that you will need to replace the batteries now and then. We are disappointed by the batteries, but updated to 3 stars due to her customer support.

We love this book! So fun and educational! My 1.5 year old reaches for these books more than any other. And the music is realistic- not at all annoying. One thing though: one of our pages (the “”A little night music” page) now only plays the first few seconds of the song. All the rest are fine. It’s a little disappointing, since we’ve only had the book a few months and we’re relatively gentle with it (as gentle as a 1.5 year old can be).

Surprise gift for grandchildren- boy 4 and girl 1 - I was most surprised because they both loved the book and the music. Thanks for a special product.

My mother is soon celebrating her 98th birthday. I was searching for something different from flowers or a new sweater that might bring her some momentary joy. This book with buttons to press which make beautiful classical melodies play was a perfect choice! She has memory loss and dementia but when she presses the “magic button,” she smiles and her eyes light up. Interestingly, she has an easier time finding those little buttons than I do! Thank you for such a lovely little book that brings so much joy.

Cadeau

So far my 3-year-old loves this book. The musical segments combined with pictures and words keep engaged and asking questions. He says he likes Vivaldi now (which, as a former classical musician, I am very proud to hear).

Grandson really enjoys this book. We followed the instructions sent to us by e-mail from the manufacturer, which was very helpful. Highly recommend it. We'll buy more of this product.

Great book!

3 year old loves classical music.PROS: Very cute and well illustrated book. Great music selection.CONS: The area to press on each page is not clearly identifiable. ( very tiny silver circle) Not easy to find with all the picture-graphics on each page (pretty much hidden).Wish that the volume- sound level was louder.Inspite of the cons it's Still a cute book.
