As you all know I am a very proud mum of a beautiful 17 week old baby girl. The Worm has started to play with toys recently, so when I saw the opportunity to review the Fisher Price 1-2-3 Crawl-Along Snail I jumped at the chance. This is a Product Talk by Nuffnang and I received a 1-2-3 Crawl-A
long Snail to review.
The snail impressed me right out of the box – literally! I was very impressed with the way they had secured the snail in the packaging – there was no silly little plastic tags that needed to be cut out & always end up on the floor. To get the snail out of the box you simply turn the little black widget thing & it unlocks like a key – no mess!
Once out it was instantly a success with the Worm. She has just started to really enjoy her tummy time & now she can roll back & forth she loves to follow things around. The snail has lockable wheels so seeing as Worm can not crawl yet I initially locked them in place so it wouldn’t roll away from her.
The snail has a bright cheerful face which lights up when activated – the ‘happy & you know it’ music was very pleasant & brought a smile to my face. To activate the lights & sounds requires a very gentle touch, even Worm could make it work. She particularly liked the “yippee” sound.
The snail has a mirror on one side, which Worm loved looking into (she’s getting a little vain just like her mum!)
Today I decided to un-lock the wheels & Worms face when it went racing across the tiles was priceless. I can see her chasing this when she learns how to crawl. The snails face, colours & lights intrigued Worm & she was reaching out to touch it very quickly, this might be a fantastic motivate her to crawl (although I am in no rush as my house is certainly not baby proofed yet!)
The Fisher Price 1-2-3 Crawl Along Snail retails for $31.99 and is suitable for children from 3-36months which makes it very good value for money. I love how the toy adapts to your child’s development, and I can see this one being a favourite in our house for many years to come.
Did you have a favourite Fisher Price toy growing up? What was it? Do you still have it?
Can’t say I remember a favorite fisher price toy! I do like their products and have heaps of them for my kids but they can be so pricey!

They can be pricey – I would wait until Target or KMart are on sale

I can’t remember a favourite I had, but my fave for the kids is an alphabet snail someone gave us for Roo’s 1st bday. BEST toy! The other is a crocodile with a bird on it’s back that you push down and the crocodile scoots across the floor snapping it’s mouth open and closed. Both big hits around here!!
Daisy recently posted..Dear Santa, do you want milk, or beer?
We have that crocodile too!

The mirror is the one thing that can generally prompt a smile Jess

I had the pull along chatterbox phone when I was little. My mum kept it. It’s now 40 years old!

I love the photo of her seeing herself in the mirror! Bebito still loves looking at himself in the mirror and he’s 3! X
