I have twins and this awakening table allows them to play together. Sitting or standing. Most is that there are several sets of elements and when the child plays with one of those games, another element is called to change his game ("comes to play with the phone" by example.) Furthermore, if the child has been inactive and no longer plays with that table, sounds and words remind her attention to the game to play it back. The songs are catchy (proof: my husband sings to the job!) Voices are sometimes a little strident (mostly in English).
