INTRODUCTION
Rock along with puppy’s musical shape sorting car! Pop the shape
sorter pieces through the windows to hear cheerful tunes, fun sound
effects, learn the shape names and count along. Press the piano keys
on the front to learn colours, play musical notes or change the music
tempo. When a melody is heard, insert shapes to hear sound effects
played over it! Pull along to activate fun phrases, a sing-along song and
to hear the dog sing you a tune as he rocks along from side to side!
Headlights flash along with the responses. Pieces store neatly inside
the car, just open the boot to release them. The pull-along cord packs
safely away in the battery compartment for early play.
