It’s an old story, “batteries not included,” but would it be too much for Amazon.com to suggest I buy some while they’re busy suggesting other toys I might like? When I complained to them about having to drive to the store christmas morning, they said they can’t keep track of all the specifications of all the toys and manufactures. So how do they expect me to?

Save a few bucks and get the one that doesn’t hook up to the tv. We got him this one and grandma got him the zebra. He likes the zebra better and it doesn’t hook up to the TV. The TV hook up features are laim and he doesn’t really get them, just likes to jump and have fun. Zebra has more things to play with on the actual toy.

My son rec’vd this for Christmas when he was 18mo old. Thought it would be perfect for him. He enjoys the occasional jump on the pony but really doesn’t care for the game portion of it. I think we would have been better off just getting the zebra that is only for jumping…or just a good ol fashioned trampoline. With the graphics on the tv, they are extremely pixelated and silly looking. I have to unplug all kinds of stuff to get it to work right on my TV (could just be my system!) and it’s just not worth the hassle for him to be bored 5min later.

Didn’t take long for my 1 yr old to figure it out. Only real complaint is that it squeaks when he jumps up and down on it. Can’t quite figure out how to lube it or something. Baby LOVES it though. Plays on it everyday, not so much the plug and play part. I love that it has a setting to just make sounds while he’s jumping. Doesn’t have to be plugged into the TV for him to enjoy it.

My 22 month old son got this for xmas when he was 20 months old. It took a while for him to catch on that he made it move when he bounced. It holds his attention for a little while, but not for terribly long; he seems more into trying to play with the base remote that connects to the TV. However, my son doesn’t really stick with anything for long- he’s always on the go.
The tv graphics are cute, and educational. However, I cannot for the life of me figure out why they put buttons on the pony’s handle bars that switch the game being played. He found those buttons quickly, and now never actually finishes a game, but scrolls through them, so I’m not sure what the games are actually teaching him. In the alphabet section, he might make it to G before switching, and often never even starts a game. That might be a phase.
Over all, I gave it a 4 star, because it is nice and fun. It’s not a must have, but he does like it. He likes to bounce on it without the TV being hooked up to it too.
