 Hours of entertainment for my 3 year old!! June 14, 2010

I got this for my 3 year old daughter after we watched the video review together. It came fully assembled and we took it outside in the sun and the little guy started jumping! My daughter still plays with it and uses it both inside and outside. You do need direct sunlight to get it to work but it is so much fun. I will definitely be purchasing a couple more! Great product!!
So much fun!! May 26, 2010

There was nothing to put together and it did not work. The other toys by this company are fun. Skip this one.

We ordered this toy for my son's science fair project. I am glad we ordered two because one of them did not work when we received it. This toy is educational and my son loved it, however, it is not as exciting as you might expect. It does not walk on its own when exposed to light, it vibrates. This makes a great tool for a science fair project but it is delicate.
For the price, a great learning toy ! March 19, 2010

mine came fully assembled and we have yet to try it in sunlight. It works well under book light and seems like an excellent learning toy for the price !
