Pal Mickey Questions

[DutchsMommy]

Just wondering, from those who have used Pal Mickey, what age group would you say he is best for. Maybe I should say - do you feel there is a minimum age for a child to be able to use/interact with Mickey? My DS is 3 and I am not sure he would be able to "work" something like this. Also, would it be something he would be interested in listening to - or would it be a little too "boring" or fact-based for him?

Thanks!

I think he'd enjoy it. There's very little to do to make it work. Basically once you turn him on you're good to go, he decides when he's going to talk based on where you are in the park. And if you want him to talk or tell a joke you just press his hand, if I remember right. Very simple toy, and cute.

I think a 3 yr old would get a lot from a Pal Mickey.... and it just might keep him from getting so bored while standing in line.

My then 4yo nephew had trouble (actually still does) squeezing his hands and pressing his tummy the right way--at least on the games.

I just bought a Pal Mickey and my dd (2 years old) loves it! She already has a bunch of talking toys, such as Elmo, so she knows how to push their hands and tummies.
