My daughter cant seem to figure out why she has no dangly bits like my son does. Every night at bath time she keeps on saying " My winkles fell off " Why had tired to explain to her that she is a girl and they have different bits to boys but she's only 3 and does not quite understand yet. So we thought maybe we should find her 2 new dolls last Christmas one a boy and another a girl. We found a girl baby born we could not get the boy one anywhere. So looking through the Argos website we came across Baby alive boy and thought this would be prefect. Sadly though she keeps on going around and telling people her winkle has fell off. Can get slightly embarrassing that can.
Who is Baby Alive??
Yes this is just another doll. One of many now that my daughter has. Though this comes in boy and girl. Who are brother and sister? As Argos say. There are quite a few dolls out like this that drink water and then can wet themselves. They do all have the same concept at the end of the day. Know really know why they called it Baby Alive as it does not really look like a new born as this one has large alien like eyes. Both the girl and boy do exactly the same thing though they wee different.
I am reviewing the baby alive boy. What You Get With Baby Alive.
3 X Disposable Nappies. Rattle Towel Water bottle Baby alive doll ( Batteries supplied )
The Look.
Baby alive looks so cute with his little blue hat on and his cute little blue t-shirt that's says I love my bottle. Though this is done in short with I then a picture of a love heart and his bottle. Baby alive actually looks quite different when he has no hat on. He tends to look older.
The `1st thing that strikes you when you look at baby alive is, He has really big bright blue eyes that tend to look quite alien. Like. He has no hair only a yellow colouring on the top of his head and a little curl going down his forehead,. He is small compared to a baby born or baby Annabel. His mouth is opened up with a little hole in the middle to where the water goes in.. He is also pose able and can sit on his own or lay down.
What Baby Alive Does.
Once he has batteries in him. Make sure that you flick the switch that is under his t-shirt at the base of his neck to On. To make Baby Alive giggle you need to press his blue bracelet and he will start to babble and giggle. To simply make him wee you will 1st need to give him a drink on water. Making sure that it's only cold water and not hot. The insertions and care leaflet clearly stats do not give him anything else other then water as this could damage your doll. He takes around half of his bottle to fill his tank up before anything will come out when he wees. After a short time of him making drinking noises like babies do he will start to cry. Once he does he will start to move his arms and legs and then you hear this quite load noise like a motor going and this is when he wees. Though make sure he has a nappy on as you will get sprayed. Like little boys do. Though I don't think that all of his water comes out at once. You also know when he's full as water starts to leak out of his bits. That's really all baby alive does. Once he does take a wee then he goes happy again and starts to giggle. Batteries.
This does take 4 X AA and they do come with the baby alive also. Though think Argos staff might have been board at Christmas as our batteries where dead.
Battery life I should say is great. We put new ones in Christmas morning and it's now February and they are still going strong showing no signs as yet as packing in.
Cleaning.
Cleaning is really easy. His t-shirt and towel can be machine wash at a low temp and the doll can be damp wipe with soapy water. No hard cleaners such as bleach should be used. Though on most of my kids toys I tend to used antibacterial wipes and these work great.
Price And Where To Buy.
We brought ours from Argos and paid £25 just before Christmas. They still are the same price I think. Most places would sell this I should say. Though I have only seen this range in Argos. Just looked on Argos and these are actually £9.99 at the moment. So a real bargain This range is only at Argos as I have just found out. Though forgot to say E-Bay would sell this one too. .
My daughter was scared to death when we opened the box for her on Christmas morning and she turned him. It took a few weeks for her to even pick him up to give him a cuddle let alone play with him. Now though she sleeps with him and takes him to nursery. She never puts him now. Though she still hates it when my son takes his nappy off and gives him a drink.
Not a life like as what I expect it. Though the sounds are spot on. Even down to the little crying that babies do when they are tired. It's so sweet.
It was worth the £25 that we paid for it. Though I do think the other Baby Alive's in the range are expensive for what it is. They do another one. A little girl that Poos after eating the magic food. That comes in at £50. Of course this little man has a little sister that does the same as this one does and they are the same price also.
Battery wise is good we had to change ours on Christmas day as this baby alive does come with batteries as there is a try me mode on but ours where dead. It's now February and they are still going strong and showing no signs of packing up yet.
So Would I recommend this one???
This one yes as my daughter thinks it's great now. It does offer something different to just another doll. Though my daughter still cant get her head around why she has not got dangly bits like my son has or her baby alive. She will do one day, I hope.
