Shake up learning with the Learn & Groove Shakin’ Colors Maracas! One maraca includes colorful shaker beads and the other features a light-up dome that changes colors and plays maraca sound effects. This musical toy includes three play modes that introduce colors, numbers and music. Little ones can add rattling sounds to the songs that play, count from 1-10 with every shake and press the six light-up buttons to hear color and instrument names. Switching between English and Spanish mode lets kids explore all of the content in both languages.
Evaluation comments:
“I love music and think it’s so important to introduce at a young age, and this is a fun way to do so.”
“The light transitions smoothly from color to color giving it a very hypnotizing effect. The sound quality is great in both Spanish and English.”
“The nonelectric maraca has a clear dome with balls that you can see when shaking. My daughter can see what is making the noise and learn cause and effect while doing so. She loves shaking it to music.”
“What I love most is that it does come with 2 very different versions, so right now my daughter can enjoy the nonelectric one, and later when she’s a bit older, I can try out the electronic one and she can learn Spanish, musical instruments and colors when she understands the concepts a bit more.”
“This is a toy that seems like it can transition nicely as babies grow into toddlers and beyond.”
