Hasbro Playskool Musical Sit N Spin (Colors May Vary)

My 2yo son got this for Christmas. Unfortunately, I haven't gotten him to SIT and spin ... he wants to STAND and spin! An accident waiting to happen ... BUT ... he LOVES the music and plays it often, dancing joyfully to each song ... with a "YEE HAW" before the "country" style song. I am hopeful that he will eventually decide to SIT and spin as I have shown him ... once he does, I know he will love it ... as he LOVES to "SPIN AROUND!"

My boys had a sit and spin years ago and like playing with it. So when I saw the new musical version, I knew I had to get it for my granddaughter. I gave it to her for Christmas and she just loves to "spin."

When my children were small they would spend hours going round and round on their Sit n Spin. I have wanted to buy one for my grandchildren for about 4 years, but couldn't find one. I finally found Amazon had them and ordered one for my grandson's 2nd birthday. I couldn't wait to see him and his brothers enjoy the toy that their mother loved so much. To our disappointment the material is flimsy and cheap. The musical portion didn't work and the children couldn't even begin to spin on it. We were so disappointed. Play School had a great product, but apparently having quality products isn't important any longer. Don't waste your money. Go find a used one and enjoy. That's what we did.

grand kids really love it

With all the other present options on Christmas, this was the least popular. My five year old and three year old still played with it but other things held their attention longer. When assembling it, my husband and I about had a heart attack. The noise that played once the batteries where in sounded like awful early eighties roller rink music. After the painful flash backs we cut the sound wires and screwed it together. We left the flashing lights working... so the boys would get some reward for their spinning effort. It is great for getting they boys to use their own muscles, so I am still happy with the purchase.

I have had the sit n spins before and my kids loved them. This one is a Christmas present.

My 20 month old daughter LOVES this "gift from Santa"! She sits on it and turns around just smirking at me the whole time. She plays the music, sometimes hitting the same button over and over again and even dances while spinning around on the toy. I read complaints of the music being too loud...I haven't noticed it at all. Don't get me wrong, it's noisy, but my husband and I both find ourselves "dancing" to the music while she's spinning. I've not found it obtrusive at this point. I'm not sure it's fair to rate this educationally...It's not really supposed to be an "educational" toy. I'm sure she's "learning" cause and effect by spinning in the opposite direction her hands are moving...or that she's hearing music every time she hits the buttons...but it's a fun toy. She uses it daily - sometimes with her legs straight out, sometime with them crossed. It's a blast to watch her.

We love this sit and spin and our kids have been using it for around three years. My son has mild sensory issues and used to spin around and around the house before we got this. The sit and spin gave him a safe place to spin. We never put batteries in this toy because we did not want it to make noise. It is strictly for spinning. I am glad we didn't add the batteries after reading the other review. My son now weighs around 55 lbs, he spins as fast as he can, and this toy has held up for us. It gets daily use at our house from both my kids.
