Best Toys

Little girls are often little mothers in training. Baby dolls have long been the toy of choice for little mommies practicing their skills. There are almost as many different kinds of dolls as there are little girls. Some are soft and cuddly, others coo or burp and a few have some more advanced features like vocalizations or motion. Then you have the interactive dolls. Few dolls can accurately be included in this category. This amazing toy is one of the most technologically advanced dolls of this class. With a computer processor and sensors inside, it is a marvel of toy development. With tons of features and phrases, this doll is more than just cute and cuddly.

Actions

This doll has a ton of movements and motions. She can sit and stand on her own and walk, too. She manages this thanks to the two batteries located in each foot for weight and balance while walking and two more in her back for counterbalance. The batteries provide the fuel for the three servo motors that create her various movements. Because of these motors, she can right herself after a tumble and return to a standing position. She has sensors in various places that work with a motion detector. Together, they tell her if she is being tickled or if she has fallen down. Feel like a game of peek-a-boo? She’d love to play a few rounds. She’s not just a walker, though. She’s a talker, too. The Little Mommy Walk & Giggle Doll has around 60 phrases, songs and other sounds to entertain a child.

Features

A nice selection of accessories is included to enhance playtime with the Little Mommy Walk & Giggle Doll. She has a bottle for meal time, a doggie pull toy for play time and a pacifier and blanket for night-night time. She arrives clad in a cute pink and blue footed jumper that can easily pass for either pajamas or a daytime outfit. An on/off switch on her back helps preserve battery life and keeps her quiet when she needs to be. All of her impressive actions are controlled by a computer processor. Her computer “brain” is and 8-bit, 6502 CPU; that’s pretty powerful for a small toy. While computer technology has far surpassed this mark, it’s still an impressive amount of computing power to be found in a baby doll.

The Little Mommy Walk & Giggle Doll is the latest addition to the line of Little Mommy dolls. She is the most advanced of the batch, but there is always room for improvement. Her gait is a little unnatural and stiff and her vocalizations could be less random. For the $70 price tag, it’s still a lot of technology for money.
