Just Smarty Interactive Alphabet Wall Chart | Talking ABCs & 123s Music Poster with Interactive Light | Toddler Alphabet Learning | Best Educational Gift for Boys & Girls Ages 2 3 4 5 | Letter Sounds

This toy is one of the few ...an here I want you to envision a single blade of grass growing in a desert few... one of the few toys that:1. Is worth the price2. Both my children found engaging, and3. Operates as advertised.We received it yesterday and had a lot of fun with it, as you can imagine. What you might not imagine is how my 4 year old got up around 7 AM this morning, said, "Good morning, DaDa," and went right away to this toy.Why did I give it 5ive stars? Because I did not have SIX stars to hand out.

Better than expected! Great value! Came with batteries and a hook to hang on the wall. Has interactive games! It has an excellent volume control! Highly recommend for little learners!

A great learning activity, learning the alphabet and numbers one through 10

It’s a good product, good concept, has Baby Shark, so it’s worth the price for me. There’s a few issues that I think are minor, but not enough to stop me from giving a 4 star review. Firstly, my kid enjoys it and I sit there and play with her, trying to teach her the alphabet on it. That’s the real strong point: it’s easy to play interactively with your kid using this toy. And the kid overall enjoys it. She likes the music option where she can play a few songs like Baby Shark and the ABC songs. This matters the most to be beyond the fact that it’s educational.My main issues are minor in relation to that and the price point. You do need to press a bit hard on the mat to get a response and sometimes, certain sounds are unclear in the built in speaker. For example, both my wife and I got several letters guesses wrong because the D and B and V sounds were not clear enough. Maybe I need to turn up the volume more, but I honestly don’t want obnoxiously loud toys just so I can hear the letter. It does need better quality speakers, but at this price point (I think it was like 23$ or 24$), I’m not expecting surround sound so it’s not for me what you’d call a “pain point” in buying. It’s acceptable for the price, it just could be better. If it made the difference of an extra 2-3$ for speaker quality, I’d be happy to pay it, though.Something I would change or improve, but it’s not exactly a complaint: I would maybe structure the letter and image finding game differently. Or maybe have more options for how it can be played, like different modes or difficulty settings. I do not think, that by itself, it provides enough associative value to the letters in terms of the finding the letter and image game. It does provide some uses and I’m not critiquing it since I don’t want to put it down beyond its intended design, but it would be better if the find the letter game then explained or connected somehow in a more clear way that the letter was connected phonetically to the pronunciation of the given image. Language, in how it confers meaning to phonetic contour (at least English), fundamentally operates as in a sound-image manner. Semiotics 101. This just asks the kid to find the letter or image and basically indicates they got it right. That is a useful thing, and for that I’m fine with it, but it’s a bit limited in that regard and I would have preferred to see that aspect of the game improved on. I’m using it to try and teach my 3 year old girl the alphabet more clearly in a way she can read. I think this would be best used supplementally when a kid is already learning to read through other means, like at school. For me, currently abroad in a non-English speaking country, it’s solely on me to teach my kid proper English and reading since nobody else does that at her age.It does have spelling options, which is useful, especially for multiple age groups, but this is a weak point, as well, for some. If you’re buying it to help teach a 3 year old how to tell a/b/c, the board will probably become obsolete by the time they’re at the age to use the spelling part. Kids just don’t maintain interest in spelling boards for long enough to go from knowing the alphabet to spelling a word as long as “necklace”. Even if Baby Shark is in it. So, it needs more functionality to cater to each age group, in my opinion. More modes and difficulties for each style of game would be an improvement in that regard.Otherwise, it’s not a toy to give to children for autopilot. At least not at 3. Or probably any age. You do need to engage with the kid for this to be useful, in my opinion. But, it is useful and a fair price. And it has Baby Shark. So, my kid enjoys it. I’m okay with that. And again, I would like to emphasize, it has used and you can teach your kid with this. Baby Shark is a very strong appeal to a kid and will help your kid get into the idea of reading a bit. That is very important and useful and even if the game were better designed, without that pull for the kid to engage it, good luck getting the kid to be interested at all! I recommend it, but it needs improvement fundamentally in a few areas.PS if R&D is reading this come holla!

The media could not be loaded. This wall chart is such a fun way to keep my toddler engaged while learning! The songs, letter sounds, and interactive features are super intuitive. It keeps her attention better than I expected, and she loves pressing all the buttons. Great tool for preschool prep or just adding some screen-free learning to the day.

Well it works, that much is true, but dang the woman singing....she's got such an annoying voice ans half the time it's off beat. My daughter loves music and loves to dance, but every time I use the music option she just stares at it like she doesn't know what to do lol like her voice is infinitely more annoying than ms rachel. I might try the baby shark one later.The buttons are hard to press, and I wish there was a feature for just "where is the letter" rather than combining the letters and pictures into one game. Does it work? Yes. Will it slowly drive you insane? Probably. Is it at least educational and does what it says? Yep. But the touch sensitivity and the annoying voice won't let me give it more than 3 stars. Def wouldn't buy again (except maybe the baby shark version is better?), def wouldn't give as a gift.

Easy to assemble. My son loves it. Pronunciation is good right size for the bedroom. It's touch sensitive. Not to loud but bright and last long.

Pros: A variety of songs to choose from (ABC's to B-I-N-G-O song), where your child and sing along and dance; You can increase and decrease the volume and this gets pretty loud, the words/songs are clear; 1-10 learning numbers; You can go over each letter with the sound and example; Nice sized display poster that comes with a hook so that you can put it up on the wall; A variety of colors to choose from, my daughter has the pink one; Everything is on the board, ready to use, no need to put anything together; Best of all, according to the description of this item, it comes with 6 Months Limited Warranty - This product is covered by a limited warranty for a period of 6 months from the date of purchase, which is awesome.Cons: I think the board could be a tad bit bigger/longer; Should come with a few more hooks just in case you want to move the board around; It should come with a pointer (A stick or ruler to point to items on the board)SummaryAll in all, this is great to have in your collection. Everyday learning and singing is always a positive and a plus for you child's development. My daughter loves the ABC song. When I put this on for her, she is engaged the whole way.
