Gund Crawl with Me Turtle Animated Musical 11.5" Plush

()

My daughter is not quite crawling yet, but she likes the Crawl with me Turtle. She dances to the music and gets upset when it stops.

I personally find the voice kind of annoying; the first thing my husband asked when he saw it was if there was a way to turn the voice off. (There is not.) Also, the turtle crawls VERY SLOWLY. It's definitely something your baby will not have trouble catching once they get moving!

()I love the brand Gund.My daughter has a few Gund stuffed animals and I was excited to add this turtle to the collection. Turtles are also my moms favorite animal, so she was super excited too.I have never owned a Gund "animated plush".

First impression:When the toy arrived, the packaging threw me off a little.It came wrapped in a plastic bag and seemingly thrown in box. Um. Okay. No big deal, and may have been just a Vine thing, but it definitely was not "gift worthy" if you're planning on sending it as a gift.

The next thing I noticed was how study the turtle felt cool, that means it can handle my 15 month old.However, the four legs are thinly covered pieces of metal (not a very squishy toy).The rest looked exactly like the picture with accurate colors.

Crawling: This thing moves SLOW or not at all.Sometimes it just makes the motion.My daughter does not mind, and she still thought it was great.She was thoroughly entertained for at least 10 minutes* the first time we used it.My two cats also seemed to think it was pretty interesting as a bonus.

Sounds:The melody is fine, the words of encouragement become a little annoying. ("Crawl with me baby! Touch my shell! Now you got it baby!" etc)The sound is a cute (or creepy) happy little kid voice.I will mimic others and say that if I had to change one thing, I'd really really like an on/off switch for the sounds, because without it being "on" its just a semi-stuffed animal. It is a shame that it can't crawl and be silent.My daughter though does like the voice, and seems to enjoy touching the shell (activating the voice) of the turtle when she walks by.

Overall, I would recommend this toy.It is cute and fun, my daughter really loves it, my mom (nana) adores it, and for what it is a fun interactive toy, I really like it.

(*10 minutes it pretty good in toddler-time)

()My daughter is close to crawling so I liked the idea of a turtle that would crawl with her when she started to crawl. The turtle says phrases such as "Crawl with me", "You're doing great baby" and "Catch me." These phrases are nice encouragement for the baby but for a parent, they start to grow old fast as does the music that plays as the turtle crawls. It only plays ONE song as it crawls, which I find to be monotonous and more song variety would make the turtle more appealing as would more phrases or just a music only option. She gets bored with him after a few minutes.

Another issue I found with the turtle is that he crawls really well on hard floors, but if you have a thicker carpet or put him on a blanket on the floor with the baby, he gets stuck and doesn't move very well. When he does crawl, he moves pretty slowly it would be nice if it had a mechanism to change the crawl speed as baby gets more proficient with crawling.

Overall, the idea was better than the delivery of this product. While my baby likes it fine, I wouldn't purchase it for the asked price though given all the downsides.

()The new Gund "Crawl with Me Turtle" toy is so awesomely cute I dare anybody to keep from smiling while watching this little fella strut his stuff. This slow-moving animated plush turtle walks and talks and plays music and everybody in the house baby, brother and sister, mom and dad, grandma and grandpa...even the pets will find this toy easy to love. No, it's not educational (unless encouraging an infant to crawl is "teaching"), but that's not the point. The "Crawl with Me Turtle" is just one of those toys that you get for the little one because maybe, someday, they'll have a faint memory of Mr. Turtle lumbering across the floor in front of them while they were giggling their Snuggie off.

The Gund Crawl with Me Turtle is super cute and just the right size.He crawls forward slowly and encourages crawling babies to tap his back.The touch is very responsive, so the baby does not need to be very precise.The video shows how long the turtle takes to start over again after being "caught."

Other than the lack of options (music and voice, crawl speed), this is a charming toy that will likely not annoy parents too much.
