What We Think Fun Factor: Durability: (what this means) The Good: Lights, Sounds, and Programmed Movement will keep kids entertained. The Bad: Rocket doesn't move in a straight line. In a Nutshell: For kids who enjoy Disney's Little Einsteins, the Transform 'n Go Rocket will provide entertainment to keep the imaginations active and adventurous. At a Glance Ages: 3 and older Requires: 4 AA batteries Bright, Colorful Pieces Make Different Sounds The Transform 'n Go Rocket has bright colorful pieces that are big enough for even younger kids to hold onto. The interchangeable parts include four wheels, two moon treads, a helicopter blade, an antenna, and a turbo booster. With them the vehicle can be transformed between a Dune Buggy Rocket, a Chopper Rocket, and a Lunar Rover Rocket. As children transform the vehicle from one to another, the vehicle "recognizes" the parts being attached to it and makes different sound effects in turn. For example, when the turbo rocket is installed, it says, "Let's go superfast!" (The vehicle itself, sadly, doesn't actually go faster.) Parents might be needed for the initial set up in which two engines are snapped into the rocket, as well as for changing the batteries. The Transform 'n Go Rocket runs on 4 AA batteries (included) and requires a Phillips screwdriver to change. Put Leo in the Driver's Seat and Program an Imaginative Ride The Transform 'N Go Rocket includes a Leo character from Little Einsteins, and he fits snugly into the pilot seat of the rocket. Additional characters from other Little Einsteins adventure sets fit into the rocket as well. When the rocket is transformed and ready to go, children have a choice of programming it to move in six paths: Forward, left, right, spin, figure eight, and zig-zag. By pushing a combination of them, you can program the rocket to put on a show. Up to 20 moves can be inputted to be performed in a row by simply pushing the buttons in the order you want and then pushing the "PAT" button to make the rocket go. We put the rocket through its paces and found it to function as expected (though "forward" wasn't quite straight). The spin, figure eight, and zig-zag modes were especially fun to watch, and we think kids will love programming a long, idiosyncratic path for the rocket to get from one place to another. What's in the Box Transform 'n Go Rocket, Leo figure. From the Manufacturer APPLES to APPLES JUNIOR brings the hilarious card and party game, Apples to Apples, to younger players. Players aged nine and up will delight in all the crazy comparisons, while expanding their vocabulary and thinking skills at the same time. The game is as easy as comparing apples to apples – just open the box, deal the RED APPLE cards to each player, and you’re ready to go! Players take turns being the judge. The judge starts each round by playing a GREEN APPLE card featuring a one-word characteristic such as Chewy, Amazing or Scary. The rest of the players must then look at the RED APPLE cards in their hands and select the one they think is best described by the judge’s card – will you play A Volcano, Unicorns or Burned Toast? When everyone’s RED APPLE cards are on the table, you should try to convince the judge that yours is the best match. You’ll find that table talk is a big part of the fun. Just wait until you hear all the clever – and not so clever – ways that people try to convince the judge to choose a particular card. Do your best, because if the judge picks your card, you win that round! The first player to win four rounds wins the game. With over 500 cards, each round is filled with surprising comparisons from a wide range of people, places, things and events. Fast-moving and refreshing, Apples to Apples Junior is easy to learn and fun to play. It’s the perfect game for kids, families and friends!

Not bad for the price!
Ordered this for my 6 year old who loves Rocket and Little Einsteins. There aren't many choices out there for Rocket toys, so I figured we'd try this since the price was right.Unit is a good size, and for a kid like mine who loves to hold "wings" and pretend to fly, Rocket's engines are a very solid place for grabbing. They come separate, and snap into place, but unlike the rest of the accessories, these are one time snap in only, very secure, and don't come back out. So there's no concern with him using these to life this toy.The reason I did four stars is that the pieces aren't secured very well, and for younger kids who don't pay attention to how they pull out the wheels, they could break something. The wheels and tracks snap in from below, so they are inserted vertically from below, not from the sides. And most kids want to pull the wheels out sideways since that's a more logical way for them to pull them off. And since they aren't the hardiest pieces of plastic in the first place (since the wheels and tracks are not weight bearing, the permanent wheels on the bottom of the toy bear the weight) it would not be too difficult for a frustrated kid to yank too hard and snap the plastic piece.The parts are "keyed" so the toy knows which part you installed, and reacts appropriately by saying how it's ready for a mission based on what the propulsion method is. Sounds also change accordingly.Volume is not selectable, but for parents like myself, who go nuts with the LOUD ones, this is very easy on the ears. Not too loud and annoying for the people not playing with it.It was certainly a big hit with my son, who loved it instantly and had fun playing with it whenever the opportunity arises.So as long as you keep an eye on the parts removal when being done by a child, and make sure they understand how to pull it without putting the posts in danger, should provide plenty of playtime for the little ones.

Great Choice!
I can't belive how hard it is to find Little Einsteins toys. When I saw this at Amazon I was so excited and when my 2 year old boy opened it for his birthday he forgot about the rest of his presents. It's sooooo cute! I love that you can switch out rocket's hardwear and make him into an ATV or helicopter, etc. My son doesn't quite understand the exact idea of how to program rocket for his missions but every kid loves buttons and so he just presses all of them and watches rocket go. He'll understand more and more over time. My one slight disappointment is that it only comes with one Little Einstein member (Leo). I'll have to try and find the rest of the gang and stuff them in his stocking at Christmas. I am so glad we got this toy! Fun for my 2 year old but I can see this being a favorite for a loooong time as he masters the programming pattern of rocket's actions. I reccommend!!!

fun for all
All three of my boys enjoy this toy, they just play with it in different ways! My youngest just pushes tons of buttons and then sees where it ends up. My oldest tries to program it to do cool stuff. So a great toy for all ages (although it would purchase it for a 2-4 year old). My only complaint is that there a bunch of mix and match pieces and nowhere to store them.

Ok, but not easy for little ones to take use on their own.
Bought this for my son for Christmas. He was a BIG Little Einstein's fan! Overall, he really liked the toy. My complaints are it's hard to make Leo sit in the driver's seat....he's always falling out. Also, my son is almost 5 now, and still can't change the parts out himself. I always have to change the pieces for him.

Biggest disappointment
This was the big gift for each of my twin boys on their third birthday. The LOVE them. However, they are also very frustrated by the fact that things keep falling off the rocket. The character of Leo comes with the set and he is supposed to drive Rocket. He falls off constantly. Short of super-gluing him on (and we're thinking about it) there is no way to keep him in his seat. It drives our sons nuts. Also, all the things that go on top - the Super Fast, helicopter and antenna attachments - come off very easily, so they fall off constantly while our sons are playing with them. We've also noticed that some of the paint is already wearing off the nose of Rocket and we've only had them for six days. Not a good sign.The best thing about this toy is the program feature. They can program Rocket to do up to 20 things and then push the button and watch him go. They love that and it works perfectly. Now if Rocket just wouldn't fall apart while he's running around.

Grandson Loves this Toy
Purchased for my Grandson for Christmas. Was hard to find locally and I knew if anyplace would have it I could find it at Amazon. Amazon came through again! My grandson loves it so much he sleeps with it. Shipped fast. Perfect transaction.

Go Rocket a Great Hit!
I gave the Transform & Go Rocket to my grandson for his 3rd birthday. He loves Little Einstein and this has become his favorite toy. This is far better than I thought it would be. He can program it himself to go in different directions and configurations. It was a bit pricey but well worth it to see how much he loves it.

Transform and go Little Einsteins Rocket
This was a toy I knew my son would like but there are too many parts to deal with and they do not stay attacked to the vehicle. Pat Pat Rocket was a better choice and more durable
