The phone is actually really great. But it is very very quiet and it rings vll only one / two times when the Höhrer resting or often not at all. That to me very strongly lacking that it is not often this phone ringing. Because exactly like my little so happy and this I think is reminiscent of a telephone, and then it would be even more fun with the play. So he finds it interesting for few minutes but then again not more. This "start talking" missing because simple. But otherwise it is really great and you can learn a lot of things! Hence 3 stars.
