Discovery Channel "Grow Toys"

Does anyone have any of these? You program them, and they "grow" with your child. I'm wondering if they're any good.


# Toy changes shape and evolves to meet baby's developmental needs
# Stage 1 (4 – 8 months): Stimulates baby's motor skills; wobbles, plays music and flashes lights when baby bats
# Stage 2 (9 – 11 months): Refines baby's motor skills; more switches and knobs become active, encouraging development of "pincher-grasp" (thumb & finger)
# Stage 3 (12 – 17 months): Tower pops up to reveal 5 new switches and toggles; leads baby through Find the Color game
# Stage 4 (18 – 36 months): Shapes release from tower for sorting activity; Shape Sorter game becomes active; new light shows and sounds effects become active


# Grows in stages with your child, from infancy to toddler years
# Stage 1 (0 – 5 months): Plays international lullabies, classical music and nature sounds
# Stage 2 (6 – 8 months): Plays kids' songs, nursery rhymes in different voices and fun sounds that baby can alter with a button push
# Stage 3 (9 – 11 months): Rhymes and repeats for word recognition; plays music composed of different sounds; lights prompt baby to continue song or rhyme
# Stage 4 (12+ months): Voice prompts encourage speech development; guides baby to compose music; encourages play with words to create original stories
