The classic learning toy is better than ever. Shaped like a barn, See 'n Say teaches your child about 16 different animals and features two unique flipping pages. Kids can point the arrow and pull the lever, then flip the page for more animals to choose from. There is also a new quiz mode. It plays "Old MacDonald" and "Farmer in the Dell" melodies. It requires 3 AA alkaline batteries, which are included.

My one-year old likes this, although the lever is still a bit difficult for her to pull down all by herself.

Not Loud Enough

The See 'n Say lets our 2 year old choose from 16 different animals, 2 animal songs or the "animal quiz." My son especially likes the song option which either plays "Old McDonald" or "Farmer in the Dell." I like how this new model has more animals than the older version. This version is smaller and slightly easier for little hands to pull. This new model runs on batteries as opposed to the wind-up/unwind kind with the harder-to-pull lever or string.
The major problem with this toy is that it simply isn't loud enough. The spinning wheel drowns out the sound of the animals. It's not even that the spinner is too loud. The toy is just too quiet even in a room with no other noise. It would be impossible to hear it in a daycare or some other louder setting.
Overall, it's a good toy for teaching animals and sounds. The pictures are bright and vivid. I just wish it was louder.

Good Sounds, Lever Tough For Ages Who Would Enjoy Toy the Most

This remake of the classic pull string animal sound toy, uses a lever instead of the string. The farm animal sounds are fun, and the educational value is good for 9 months-18 months, in my opinion. The main issue I have with the toy (like a lot of others) is the lever. I would say the lever is designed for a 2+ year old to pull - younger kids can pull it partially, but not all the way, but the rest of the toy is really ideal for kids in the 9-18 month range. This mismatch keeps the toy from being a full recommendation. I would buy it again, but hope Fisher Price improves this product in the future.
