    Colorful Balls that Spin and Pop in the Air
    The Busy Ball Popper is a one-piece toy that's made up of a removable ball trough, tube, and tray. When your child presses down on the big-eyed mushroom character on the Ball Popper, the balls move up the tube and pop out of the top, falling back into the tray to start the process all over again.

    The popper is made to withstand the rigors of your infant's play and can be easily cleaned with a damp towel. The plastic balls are large enough that you will not have to worry about them as choking hazards, but when your child is popping the balls, make sure to keep an eye out for balls as they can go off of the track occasionally. The popper also includes eight lively songs that start once you have pumped down the plunger to activate the ball-popping fan.

    Keep in mind that although the Busy Ball Popper is made out of a strong, durable plastic, it is fairly heavy and should be kept on a flat surface while being played to avoid any damage to your furniture. The toy also shuts itself off after a short period of time, but it is recommended to always turn it off manually for battery conservation.

    Great Sensorial, Put-and-take Work For Your Child
    This ball popper is a great toy for infants gaining gross motor skills, or for toddlers who are ready to chase the balls around the house and dance to the upbeat music. It is visually appealing with its bright, colorful balls and characters, and you never know where the balls may land, making it an exciting and new adventure each time.

    What's in the Box
    Ball popper base, plastic ball tray and lower trough, and five plastic balls. (Batteries are not included.)

    THE Toy Right Now

    THE Toy Right Now
    I bought this for Christmas. At the time, my son was 7 months and he wasn't really interested. He did like the balls. The adults seemed to like it more than him.Fast-forward, my son turned 9 months and started to like the toy (yep, they got the age right on this one for my son). He's nearly 10 months and is obsessed with it. It is the toy he zeros in on in his playpen. He's even putting the balls back when they pop out and absolutely loves putting his hand over the opening to stop the balls from popping.I only have 3 complaints:1) It doesn't come with enough balls. Before he was interested, we lost the red ball and it didn't work properly (we've since found it). Also with how often balls pop out, 5 balls aren't enough to keep it going through a cycle. We bought the pack of 12 replacements. Well worth it!2) It's hard for my son to press the button to get this going. He's at the stage that he hits at things and I see him hitting the button, but it's not enough to get it to start. He eventually gets annoyed and yells at it. Or just takes balls out and puts them in the top to slide down. It's easier for him to flip the tiny switch to turn it off than to hit the big mushroom button to get it started!3) Sometimes the balls get stuck in the tube and you have to push them a bit to get them going again. It's not difficult and with enough patience, it'll work it out on its own.
