Everybody's favorite little pony is back, sporting a bright new mane and a purple tail, and ready to share her nap time with you. Children ages three and older who love stuffed animals will love this toy. She Sings and Talks Press My Little Pony's foot, and she will tell you she's sleepy, then ask if you will rock her to sleep. Rock My Little Pony to sleep, and she makes baby cooing noises and sings "Rock-a-Bye Baby." Children who like to sleep with toys or who have trouble transitioning to bedtime will find My Little Pony especially appealing, since most of the songs and phrases are related to sleeping. 
Rock her back and forth and she will sing "Rock-A-Bye Baby". View larger. |  | What We Think Fun Factor: 
Durability:  (what this means)
The Good: Sturdy, but plush and cuddly
The Bad: No off switch
In a Nutshell: Good bedtime toy, sweet voice | At a Glance Ages: 3 and older Requires: 3 AAA batteries (included) |  | | She Is Soft and Cuddly The body and limbs of My Little Pony are constructed of soft, plush material that's securely and durably stitched. The face is made of hard plastic with painted eyes and a molded nose and mouth. The hard plastic face permits both robust play and easy cleaning--just a quick wipe with a mild soap and water is all it takes. The pony's mane and tail are made of fine nylon. The mane is firmly attached; even repeated tuggings kept everything where it should be--an important feature, since it's likely that the toy will be carried around by its hair at some point. The tail displayed some minor shedding, but it's probable that these were just stray threads. Both the mane and tail are sewn, rather than glued. Overall, the design and construction are excellent. A minor quirk is that the toy is a bit heavy due to the weight of the toy's battery pack and the internal voice mechanism. For older children, this won't an issue since the extra weight is mere ounces. However, if your child is the type who likes to carry a stuffed friend with him all day, especially if he is very young, this might be a factor to consider. She Tells You Want She Wants By pressing on My Little Pony's foot, your child will hear one of three phrases: "I love you," "Will you rock me to sleep?", and "I'm sleepy." When the toy is rocked back and forth, it sings "Rock-A-Bye Baby" and coos with baby-like noises. The pony's voice is sweet and child-like. There are two settings on a switch on the back of the toy, which an adult will probably need to assist a child with, since it's a bit difficult to access. One reaches the switch located inside the toy, just below the neck, through an opening at the back which is held together with Velcro. Contrary to expectations, the settings aren't "on" and "off" but "demo" and "play." In the demo mode, the toy only speaks (no singing) by the foot-pressing method. In "play" mode, the toy's full range of features is activated, where the pony sings and speaks when being rocked or when moved. Pressing on the foot for speech is also an option in play mode. In addition to the toy's vocal ability, your child can pretend to change the pony's diaper, which is permanently sewn at the back, and opens and closes at the sides with Velcro. This semi-attachment is a positive feature, since it would otherwise be likely to get lost or fall off. The pony also comes with a removable pacifier. What's in the Box Toy, pacifier, and 3 "AAA" batteries.

A different kind of baby dollJun 17, 2007
By K. Balderas
"mom of two"
My 2 1/2 year old daughter chose this toy herself with her gift card. She absolutely loves her "pony baby". She sleeps with it every night and before they go to sleep she has to push the foot and go through all of the phrases. She loves it when her baby says "I love you", and when she asks "will you rock me to sleep?" my little girl does every time. She loves her "pony baby" more than any of her traditional style baby dolls.

We love itMay 25, 2007
By Korrie Waldner My daughter got this for her 5th b-day. She got Pinky Pie at Easter and loved it so much, I had to get her Rainbow Dash for her b-day. It sings and talks. It is a nice change from playing with babies all the time. For anyone who loves My Little Ponies, this is great to add to your collection!

3 year old loves it!Jan 12, 2008

"mluv2cruz"
My 3 year old received this for her birthday and she loves it! She likes any kind of horse. It is not worth the current $34.99 price, but for $8.99 it is! The phrases are short and not terribly annoying. Very cute!!

My Daughter Loves this Toy!Jan 11, 2008
By C. Morrell We bought this a few days ago for my barely 5 year old daughter. We already had the skywishes one that she got for her birthday last month and she has been so happy with that one that we thought she'd enjoy Rainbow Dash to go with it and now she plays and plays with these and pretends their twins. This one can sit in the doll carrier that skywishes came with too. It's a nice change since she is usually just playing with baby dolls all the time. The binky stay pretty well put in the ponies mouth too, so that's nice because I hate it when it shows a binky with a doll, but then you can't even keep it in there. One of the phrases this one says is "I Love You" and my daughter just loves that and comes running in the room to tell me that Rainbow Dash loves her. These ponies make for great pretend play, as I often here my daughter in the other room talking to them and having tea parties with them or putting them to bed, etc. This has definitely been a lot of fun so far!
