 Kids love but I wouldn't recommend September 17, 2008

My 3 year old daughter received this for her birthday. She absolutely loved it. It's very easy for kids to operate. As I was installing the software she had already figured out how to work it to listen to the preinstalled stories and songs. On the other hand, the software is junk. My computer and the player would both say it was connected but the software would not recognize the player at all. I could not find anything helpful on the fischer price website about how to fix the problem. I have all kinds of music I had downloaded for her from Wal-mart downloads and from the disney website but I would have to transfer it to a cd then back into the computer before it would go into the software library. This is more trouble than whats its worth so I'm just going to return this and buy her a real mp3 player. I would not recommend unless you have the paience to figure it out. Hope this is helpful.
Works Great and Easy to Use September 3, 2008

I bought this for my 2 & 1/2 year old for a long plane ride. I was leary after the reviews in how hard the software was but to anyone who owns an IPod this is no different. It is easy to use and so is the software and the website is great. It all makes sense. I was also very happy to see how "tuff" this kid's toy is. Very durable I would recommend it for long car rides or planes so you can get some rest too.
 Daughter Loves It! August 26, 2008

Got this for my daughters 3rd birthday and she loves it. Took minutes for her to master the easy buttons. The headphones don't want to stay on her head though. I had no problem loading songs from a cd onto the player, it was quick and simple. We've only had it 2 days, so hopefully won't encounter any of the problems some of the other reviewers have mentioned. Software doesn't work with Vista, luckily we had a 2nd computer with XP.
What a wonderful toy! July 25, 2008
L. Marshall (Wildwood, MO United States)
My daughter just received this for her 5th birthday. She's a huge music lover, and this was just up her alley. Let's just say she's been attached to it every since she received it.
The software was easy and quick to install. Loading music from a cd (can't load from a computer to the music library, it has to come from a cd) is a simple process. We also took advantage of purchasing a few stories from the website so she's got some of her favorites for bed time. We have a dial up connection and still were able to download stories which was nice. :)
The FP3 is so simple for kids to figure out how to operate without a lot of help needed from mom,dad or whomever. One option I loved was that I was able to assign an icon for each song I loaded on to her player. This was a great feature considering she's not reading quite yet and this helps her id the song before she has to hear it play. I also love that the volume can't go too high either, so I don't have to worry about her hurting her ears. She's enjoyed going to bed with her FP3 player on and listening to bed time stories. It also has an auto-shutoff so the batteries won't continue to drain while she sleeps.
Either way - it's got simple features, yet is built to last, and is just such a fun and fantastic gift for the music and/or story lover in your child. It looks like her two year old sister just might be getting one for her birthday in the near future as well! (It really is a great gift for any kid!) I just can't say enough wonderful things about the simplicity of it and the sturdy design. Fisher Price got it so right this time!!!
