This interactive elephant arrives in a colorful cardboard box and includes an instructional booklet that ends up being quite handy. After removing this item from the box, I was immediately happy with how soft it is, both in terms of the feel of the fabric and the fluffiness of the stuffing. Although the material on the little bird looks like it’s pilling in the pictures, it isn’t. The bird is just made of a different fabric than the elephant. Also, this item requires a small screwdriver to open the battery compartment and three AAA batteries that are not included.
This little elephant performs several functions. First, the power switch is located on the bottom; however, once the elephant starts singing, dancing, and repeating everything you say, you can make it stop doing all of that by double pressing the elephant’s left foot. Single pressing this same left foot will otherwise start playing one of four different songs, which include:
- Old Macdonald Had a Farm
- If You’re Happy and You Know It
- Bingo (There was a Farmer Had a Dog)
- The Barney Song- I Love You, You Love Me (non-English version)
After you have cycled through all of the songs, you can then press the Elephant’s right foot to access two more functions. When first used, a single press plays a pre-recorded greeting, after which the elephant will repeat everything you say while it dances around. You can change the greeting to your own recording by holding down the button on the right foot, waiting for a beep, recording your message, and then releasing the button, after which you will hear two short beeps indicating your message is saved. You can then single press the right foot and hear your greeting, after which the elephant will go back to repeating everything that is said until you turn it off (either at the bottom switch or by double pressing the left foot).
Overall, I think this interactive elephant is adorable and I think it would make a fantastic gift for any toddler.

This toy is adorable. It's very soft as well. It requires battery, which is fine, but I do love when things are rechargeable, especially children's toys since they tend to mow through batteries. The buttons aren't very hard to press. I have no complaints about the quality. I'm using it as a gift for a 6-month-old. I think he's going to love it.

This is the cutest little Elephant interactive toy. My grandsons loves elephants and he loves singing and dancing and so this was absolutely perfect for him. This sings cute little nursery rhythms that every little child should know & can enjoy. It’s well made and just a fun stuffed animal that can be taken everywhere, and believe when u say my grandsons loves elephants takes this everywhere with him & plays all day every day with it. This is worth every penny & would make a great gift!

This is a cute-looking toy that comes with a soft, fluffy elephant with his duck friend. The elephant’s ears move, and it makes cheerful sounds that little ones will enjoy. It also has a voice recording function, allowing you to record your own voice and have the toy play it back ,which is a fun and unique feature.
Keep in mind that the toy does not include batteries — you’ll need to install AAA batteries yourself. The toy is also lighter and smaller than I expected based on the pictures, but it’s still well-made for casual play.
Overall, this is a nice and entertaining toy for young kids. It’s not the most premium option I’ve seen, but for the price point, it performs well. I’d definitely recommend it if you find it on sale — at that price, it’s worth it for what it offers.

Our autistic kid uses echolalia as a form of communication - which means he parrots words. This stuffed elephant is a wonderful interactive toy for an autistic child that learns language that way. The duck and elephant alternate singing pre-programmed songs. But it also can record your voice and can be played back, this is amazing since I travel a lot for work and I can leave my kiddo a message. It also repeats what is it told, which my kiddo loves practicing his words with this toy. It keeps his attention, he dances and sings to the songs, and enjoys talking to it. This toy meets and exceeds what I thought I was getting. Highly recommend!

This elephant and duck toy set is just too cute! The sounds are clear and engaging, and I especially love the feature that lets you record your own voice for my grandbaby to listen to when we’re far apart. It adds such a sweet, personal touch to playtime. Well made, fun, and perfect for keeping little ones entertained while feeling connected to loved ones.

So cute and the perfect size for a toddler! Tumama toys are all adorable and such high quality! Super soft and never any chemical smell. Love their packaging too - fun, awesome looking boxes, ready to be gifted. I'm a loyal customer when it comes to this brand. This particular toy is more elaborate than others, as it combines not one but two little animals, both talking and moving, in a synchronized way. This justifies the slightly higher price compared to similar products containing a single little animal. I love it and totally recommend it!
