Baby Musical Toys Review #6:
Little Superstar Jammin’ Band Musical Microphone

Looking for baby musical toys that will keep your baby engaged for months or even years? Why not try Fisher-Price Little Superstar Jammin’ Band Musical Microphone?

This multi-function baby musical toy is physically designed for babies/toddlers aged 6 to 36 months, when babies start to sit up and finally stand up and move around. In fact, it is so fun that your babies won’t get bored with it for a very long time. A 6-month-old can just sit and enjoy pressing the button and hearing the sound.

When your babies get bigger, they can stand up and support themselves with the baby musical toy. They can now sing with music, sounds and phrases playing from the interactive microphone. The Little Superstar Jammin’ Band Musical Microphone is built in such as way that the height of the toy can be adjusted. The microphone angle can also be easily adjusted to your child’s height.

The design of Little Superstar Jammin’ Band Musical Microphone is sophisticated. It features a real working microphone that gently amplifies your baby’s voice and a musical activity centre. The microphone plays six sing-along songs and 4 karaoke tunes. It has a build-a-song option which will greatly delight the older infants. Even more interesting, the baby musical toy microphone has a lights-up function and will respond to your kid with encouraging phrases. The musical activity centre comes with a separate tambourine and maraca. These tambourine and maraca hanging from the side are mobile and can be removed readily.

The Jammin’ Band Musical Microphone offers 2 modes of interaction. The first one is a sing-along mode. In this mode, babies press the song-select button to hear a song. Imagine how delight the baby will be when they first sing into the microphone and hear their own voice. On the baby musical toy are a guitar, a trumpet, a keyboard and a drum. By pressing each instrument and playing with them, babies can hear the sound of each instrument.

The other mode of interaction is the musical discovery mode. It is very much similar to the sing-along mode, but in this mode babies take more initiative in “making” their own music. As such, it is more suitable for older toddlers. Your little ones can activate the instruments to play a tune, or press the song-select button to hear musical phrases, or choose an instrument to build their own song. In this mode, when the kids sing into the microphone it will respond them with encouraging phrases.

This baby musical toy has received good reviews from parents all over the world. It is safe, durable and sturdy. There is a footed base which steadies the activity centre, with a handle on the front to support the baby pulling him/herself to stand and play. The manufacturer claims that this baby musical toy is easy to clean up with a clean cloth dampened with a mild soap and water solution. Indeed, most of the users like the easy installation and assembly and think that it is easy to maintain.

Most parents also love the volume control function  so that they can lower the volume of the baby musical toy while their kids are playing. However, some find the volume to be too soft to attract the attention of their kids. Of course, another down side of this baby musical toy is that it’s a little pricey.
