When my daughter was younger we had quite a selection of Baby Einstein videos and I would play her one a day, they were amazing. Now that said daughter has a baby of her own we introduced him to Baby Einstein via YouTube and he loves it.
I decided to get him a couple of toys featured in the video he likes, but then I saw the Baby Einstein Take Along Tunes and it has become one of his favourites (tying with the Baby Einstein star).
When he has tummy time he loves looking at it as it's playing music and as he's about to teeth he really likes pushing the rings into his mouth and biting down on them. When we take him in the car it is a really handy toy to have as it's easy for him to hold and as he brings it up to his face he (accidently) turns the music on himself.
For reference, my grandson was 5 months old when we introduced this toy, and he has been playing with it for a few weeks. I see it says from 3 months, but I'm not sure that he would've enjoyed it so much at 3 months, maybe from 4.5 months.
There's a total of 10 different melodies that play with Baby Einstein Take Along Tunes and the toy lights up in time to the music when it plays which my grandson is mesmerised by. One of the things I love about the melodies that Baby Einstein uses is that they are based on classical music like Beethoven, Bach and Mozart along with traditional rhymes.
It requires 2 AA batteries and can also be turned off when baby's not playing with it. It also has two volume levels.
It's recommended that you wipe it clean with a damp cloth and mild soap, but we just use a disinfectant wipe after our grandson has left for the day.
This gets a big thumbs up from baby, Nanny & Grandad - I think mum and dad might invest in one for when he's at home as well.

I've always liked the Baby Einstein line of products. This take along tunes toy sounds like a darling toy for babies. Sweet that your grandson enjoys it as much as you enjoy him. :) Nothing like a grandson -- I have five of them. :)
ReplyDeleteI love it! Why not give a baby control over their own "radio" and the fact that it doubles as a teether is fabulous. Baby Einstein is definitely a name synonymous with quality in baby toys. Since babies start enjoying the take along tunes so early, they would make a great baby shower gift.
ReplyDeleteI must be the only one who hadn’t heard of Baby Einstein before this. It looks like a fabulous toy to keep babies mesmerized and start instilling a love of music!
ReplyDeleteThis Baby Einstein toy sounds wonderful and your grandson clearly enjoys it. Looks like this take along tunes is a really lovely toy for babies.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like a great way to have a child friendly musical alternative; it's a plus to be a teething toy as well!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the heads up on this toy - I've saved it for later. My youngest son was absolutely mesmerized by the Baby Einstein videos, he was completely into them! I had forgotten about this brand!
ReplyDeleteBaby Einstein was a great toy then and it seems that it is a great toy now too! I love that the little ones can handle it all on their own. Thanks for bringing back some memories and making some new ones too!
