I bought this frog to play with my 1 year old son. He likes it very much, although at the moment he is more entertained by putting the drumstick in the frog's mouth instead of producing sounds :) The sound is very fun and he always asks me to play. The color is lighter than the picture, but not as light as the drumstick displayed (somewhere in between for both). The frog also looks cool as decoration in the living room.
