This is the best thing I've ever put in my diaper bag. I never leave home without the phone or a set of keys. After my last cell phone filled up with apple juice and goldfish crumbles, it was time to search for a phone just for Lily. This was a great find and she was thrilled. The buttons actually make a real sound when you push them in and there is a button on the side that will record your voice. The keys are real metal and the buttons make the "beep beep" sound just like a car setting the alarm. It also has a tiny light that is a lot of fun for babies. This is just the right easy no-brainer first birthday gift for any child on your list. They're sure to love it. Stephanie R
