BRIGHT BEATS LEARNIN’ LIGHTS DANCE MAT

Sharing is caring!

This time last year, Hero fell in love with a dancing robot called Beatbo. Now he’s back with his Bright Beats Learnin’ Lights Dance Mat.  And Hero is more in love, because if there’s anything he loves to do, it’s dance.  Like his big brothers, as soon as they hear a rhythm, they have to dance.

We got Beatbo and his mat out and set him up within seconds.  Suitable from 9 months upwards, all of the boys decided that they were allowed to play, and waited patiently for Beatbo to be slotted onto the base.

Looking at the Bright Beats Learnin’ Lights Dance Mat, there are four coloured sections to teach different concepts:

Red: Numbers

Yellow: Shapes

Green: Dancing

Blue: Letters  

There are two advised ways to play with the Bright Beats Learnin’ Lights Dance Mat.

First is the Move and Play mode – this is most suitable for the little ones as they simply swat at and tap Beatbo [or press any of the four buttons on the base] to set off the light show on the mat, like a disco!  We liked this very much, especially just before bed *cry*.

Dance and Learn – this mode is the most preferred by Jensen and Lyoto, who try to teach Hero to move about the mat into the different coloured sections.   Motion sensors detect the arrival of Hero in a section and he is then rewarded with songs, lights, the whole business!  The most common phrase heard around Beatbo is, “let’s hit the mat”.  With three boys, we all know what happens then…

We Love

The quality.  Fisher Price toys are made to last with little people.

The toy is built with a learning philosophy behind it.

That this is easy to pack away.  Fold up the mat and it’s one of the smallest toddler toys that we have.

We Wish

It was available with the little BeatBowWow dog on it too.  We’ve seen him on YouTube and we love him quite a lot.
