This is a great little book. It features five dinosaurs, each with a couple facts and a textured area that you press on to hear that dinosaur's roar. You have to press firmly in the middle of each area to trigger the sound, so if you have a little one like my 15 month who loves this book, it will take a little time to master. Probably the reason the book is recommended for ages 3 and up. I also love that you can replace the batteries (3 x 1.5V AG10) so the book isn't trash when they run out like some other books I have. The battery compartment is on the back of the book and can be opened with a small screwdriver. The holes that the speaker plays through are also on the back of the book, so the sound will be somewhat muffled if they are covered. Dinosaurs and textures are as follows:Tyrannosaurus Rex - metallic scales (can also be accessed through hole in front cover)Stegosaurus - corrugated cardboardPterodactyl - nappy feltDiplodocus - imitation leatherTriceratops - mirrored dotsAll dinosaurs together (a sounds play in sequence) - no texture, just a circle containing a musical noteI'll definitely be buying the other books in this serious based on this purchase.
My 6 month old grandson loves this book. It has good pictures and the sounds are fun (some reviews complain about the sounds not being correct, if you read the words that describe the sound they are right, just not what you expect them to be). My only complaint is the area to press is big compared to the precise noise button and my grandson has problems finding the button sometimes. He knows that area makes the sound, but can't always hit the spot. Some of them require a firmer pressure than his little finger can make so he will take my finger and try to press it.
I like this series. But aside from Noisy Farm, the other books don't seem as loud.My son (who is one) can press most of the buttons just fine. A few are harder for him to push.Some of the areas are pretty big and you have to push right in the middle to make it work.I like the books though.
My 13 month old loves to "rawr!" along with the dinosaurs. He tries to push the buttons, but the button mechanism is too small for his little fingers to get. If the butons were larger and easier for tiny hands then this would get 5 stars. He still loves this book!
What I love about this book is how it is so engaging with multiple senses.First, the visual: There are 5 different dinosaurs that are profiled in the book. There are a couple of fun facts about each one, as well as a question meant to encourage the child to make the sound of each type of dinosaur (for example: "Can you roar like a T-rex?).The touch 'n feel: The cool thing about this board book is that each button to turn the sound on actually has a different "feel" to it. From the scaley skin of the T-rex to the fuzzy wing on the Pterodactyl I loved the variety of materials. Sometimes these touchy feely books repeat the same material over and over so I like the variety here.The sound: The sounds are cool and pretty good quality but as another reviewer pointed out it is slightly harder to activate the sound compared to other similar books. I will say, however, unlike some books that are activated by a flap (i.e. light activated), this method is a lot more dependable.Great for little dino lovers and a great sound/touch board book.
I bought this for our 9 month old nephew. He loves it! He is only coordinated enough to slap at the buttons... You should have seen his reaction when he first made theses dinos roar. To see the gears turn as he put 2 and 2 together was fantastic! Almost as much fun for the adult as the child.
My 3-year old and 10-month old love this book. It's bigger than most touch and feel board books and the places to touch are slightly bigger as well. It gives a few simple but interesting facts about each type of dinosaur and the sounds are cool. I like it enough to order the other books on this series.
My niece loves it. She's a toddler and it was realistic without being too scary for a younger child. I was amazed that it has different sounds for each dinosaur. Plus, the battery can be replaced. Great item!
