KidGlue Review: Elmo Live

By Akela Talamasca on November 28th, 2008

Elmo Live is a multi-faceted toy for children 18 months and up. While talking, telling jokes, singing and more, Elmo encourages children to be creative. Elmo’s head and mouth move while he interacts with the child. However, at times Elmo is hard to understand when he is speaking. o play with him, you merely had to press his buttons for him to begin. If a child isn’t playing with him (and Elmo is on his back), then he’ll tell them he’s tired and go in battery-save mode.
STATS
Retail Price: $60 (Varies per store)
Weight: About 3 Pounds (not too heavy for your children)
Batteries: 6 AA batteries required (Install with a Phillip’s screwdriver)

What others say about Elmo Live…

“Elmo tells jokes and reacts to touching his nose and other body parts. On drawback that gets obvious in the videos are the rather loud motors that make Elmo do his gestures. They sound a little annoying and ruin the fun a bit.” From I4U News

“We found him very easy to play with — just press his buttons to get him going. Press Elmo’s foot and he will sit down on his stool to tell you a story. He even gestures to act out parts of his stories! Squeeze his nose, and he’ll make a variety of silly sounds; he’ll even ask you if you “have his nose” and ask you to give it back to him. Squeeze his hand, and he’ll dance. Elmo even blows kisses, asks for hugs, and says he loves you. He tells jokes, acts ticklish, and more.” From Amazon
