I like to buy Christmas gifts all year long so I’m not rushed to find things for people at the last minute. Well, for the little ones in the family, it will be the new Elmo Live toy coming out in mid October this year. Even though I like to buy ahead of time, I am definitely going to wait for this one. Every parent and grandparent is going to be buying this latest Fisher Price toy for their kids but I really don’t care. I usually like to get everyone unique and interesting things that they can’t readily find just anywhere, but this year, I am changing that rule a bit.
Of course, when the Elmo Live toy comes out in stores, they are going to fly off the shelves and be hard to find so I guess I will be getting the kids a “rare” toy but it’s new and very innovative. From the Elmo Live reviews I have read, this new Fisher Price toy uses the latest and greatest technology available.
The other Elmo plush toys that have come out over the years have been great and fun for the little ones but this new one surpasses them all. Elmo Live doesn’t just giggle his famous giggle, he greets you when you squeeze his hand; sneeze when you pinch his nose; and asks you for a big hug. I can’t think of any other Elmo toy that does that. Or, in fact, any other toy on the market now; period. I thing Fisher Price has really outdone themselves with this. They are really going have to rack their brains on the next Elmo if they are going to make it any better.
An Elmo Live review that I read talked about how educational this toy is. I do see how he can be that way. He teaches the little ones how to be social; how to solve problems to get the result they want; and to develop their hand-eye coordination.
The Elmo Live toy entertains as well as teaches. If you tickle and push on this tummy, he will let out his contagious giggle and then offer to tell you a joke. It’s going to be a funny one but if you don’t laugh loud enough, Elmo will get frustrated and wonder if his mike is on. Then you will hear crickets chirping in the background and Elmo Live will say, “Oh boy…” He just has personality; something that you can’t say about too many other toys out there.
This Elmo Live review is for everyone who has a child that loves to hear Elmo tell stories. This toy will not disappoint. He will sit down, cross and uncross his leg, and tell you all about his life on Sesame Street and people he knows there. It really is like having the real Elmo right there in front of you. I can’t wait to see this little red monster for real and watch all my children’s faces light up on Christmas morning.
