 CuteSep 28, 2007
By C. Mcgovern

I got this for my daughter's 5th birthday. It is cute, but the swing around trunk is useless. Tika is supposed to swing her trunk around, pick up the little doll and put her on her back. You are supposed to put one of the little dolls in front of Tika on a little cardboard mat that shows you where to place them. 9 times out of 10 it misses, which became very frustrating for my daughter. She also ownes the little elephants that you hook together. She would much rather play with those.

 Great toy. Kids played with it all Christmas DayDec 29, 2007
By John Kelly
Great value. Kids 6 & 4 loved it. It was their favourite Santa Present.
Works very well when using the template but was also fun trying to guess where to put the doll to get picked up. Very good magnets in dolls and on trunk of elephant.
Was wary of it due to other poor reviews but they were not warranted. Toy is very good and well made.

 Junk, junk, junk!Oct 23, 2007
By Maude Rich
"Mom of 2"
I'll admit it- I was thinking that this probably wasn't a good call when I bought it. But my daughter really, really wanted it for her birthday- in fact, it was the only thing she wanted! So, I bought it. It is VERY hard to use correctly- you need to sit the mini Barbies JUST SO at a certain distance on the "template leaf" (direct quote). The, half the time, it doesn't work anyway, or the doll falls off, or the trunk falls off the elephant. Most of the time, our elephant sits with his trunk fallen off. Sad, and a waste. If your child really loves it, buy the mini version- it doesn't throw the dolls around, but it's cheaper and works better (it rolls.)

Not for 3 yr oldDec 27, 2007
By Kim
I have a 4 yr old and 3 yr old who opened this from Santa and after less than 5 minutes of playing with it - managed to break off the trunk - which then kept happening. Also my girls wanted to hold the trunk as it was moving and that caused it to make a ticking sound like it was going to break. So while this is such a cute toy and looked great on the commerical (it doesn't move as smoothly as shown on tv), its for a little bit older of a child.

Great toy..just takes practice!~Dec 25, 2007
By Julie Garwood
I almost did not purchase this toy for my 4 year old daughter for Christmas,after seeing some reviews,but she wanted it so badly,I decided to go ahead.
It does take some practice,there is a little mat where you need to place Tika's feet,and the little princess,but when everything is postioned just right,they all work great.We have had a hit and miss a couple of times,but it really does work just fine,and my daughter claps her hands and squeals when it works.I got this on sale on Amazon for a very reasonable price,and am very pleased overall.
