It has also gender neutral issues. Let me give a couple of examples and if I have time one day I will give more specifics: <br /> <br />This toy has sophisticated electronics but the design behind it seems lacking. For example, it will give negative feedback for choosing the wrong answer but I will not give any feedback if you chose the right answer:-) <br /> <br />The toy is designed to encourage vanity and other undesirable traits and feels like it was designed by someone who has a sterotypical and negative view of what American girls are like. More later got to go.. <br /> <br />Probably designed by some insensitive backward male out there.. And my apologies to all the good guys out there. I know there are a lot of you out there and I am married to one of them:-) <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Rating: 2 / 5 I bought this toy for my son and I figured if it turns out too ‘girly’ I would give it to my niece.

She can't. Dialing their number only plays music, which confuses her. But overall, a nice, colorful toy.

She wanted to speak with the princesses. Unfortunately, when you dial the princess' numbers you only reach one of the "favorite" songs. The songs do not even correspond to the movies or CDs. It does have some fun learning activities where you find the princess' partners or play some musical tones, but all in all we thought it was disappointing. Additionally, some of the tasks were a little beyond our 4 y.o. capabilities, requiring her to read the "phone book" to dial the correct number.
