*Sorry! This giveaway is now closed. Check back every Monday for another great giveaway!*
Sounds Amazing, a brand new toy from Smart Play, introduces children to various sounds by letting them “scan” the sound using an interactive pen. Various themes included on the cards are animals, transportation, musical instruments, nature, objects, and more!
The cards are written in both English and Spanish, making it a perfect bilingual toy.
Big Brother absolutely loved this toy. It kept his attention for a long time and he went through all 100 cards and played the sound on every one of them! I think his favorite part was using the pen to scan the bar codes.
We had a few hiccups with the first pen we received, but the company promptly sent us a new one and went through their inventory to be sure there weren’t any others with the same problems. :)
This is a pretty cool toy in and of itself, but a fun extension would be to put a post-it note over the picture and let your child guess the object/animal by hearing the sound only.
Would you like to win one? To enter this giveaway, just leave a comment with your e-mail address (which will be deleted after the giveaway…it’s just so I have a way to contact you if you win).
This giveaway is open to U.S. residents only (apologies to my international readers). The giveaway will end on Friday, July 1 at 10am (CST). Shortly after, the random winner will be announced on Facebook.
Good luck!
