I just wanted to say we had the SAME problem! We finally figured out it was the AC / heater- the Zebra was position in such a way that every time the AC or heater would kick on, it would move the little spinny thing in the front ever so slightly.. but it was enough to trigger it to go off. Once we moved it.. it was fine.. but it drove us crazy for weeks figuring out why it did that!

Mine does too! We turn it off in the evening so we don't get woken up in the night...

No problem here. We love it. Ours, only if someone hits it, our cat does sometimes.

We have never had a problem with that. It only plays when someone bumps it. So, if you don't have any animals that might be bumping it in the night, then maybe you just have gotten a very ambitious Zebra. Editing to add, that maybe you might want to change the batteries if your toy starts doing this. I have noticed with some of the other toys that when the batteries start wearing down the toys start acting weird, like turning on when no one is using it.

My 14 month old son loves it. Until he's over the loud music part, as listed above. He like that he gets a response when he pushes buttons and the nightlight part is really fantastic.

I have the same exact issue. I have the recharbale battery pack, and i watch him playing with it, I guess you cant turn it off, similar to an iPad, however my two year old loves turing it on and off and waving goodbye to it.

It's been a while but I'm pretty sure it has different times but will shut off after a max time. And the others are right. My granddaughter loved it. Hers had a volume switch that cut out when trying to turn it down. I sent another and let them know. I don't if others have had the same problem. Doesn't it say how long it will play?

Yes, somehow our 5 month old set it off and it began playing music. I can't find any answers regarding this though.

I understand your frustration with this toy, as we have experienced the same issues... I immediately changed the batteries, which helped, but overall it's just a very cheaply made toy. It still works, several months later, but only when stroked lightly with the stick not by hand. I was expecting more, but in the end, my 3 year old likes it well enough the way it is, so we kept it. She actually played with it just today! Hope this helps.

I think you got a bad one. When I got my son his Dino he was 5 yr old. We loves it. It isn't really easy to transformer. But I can do transform it. Once I figured out how to do it. My sons stands up on its own with problem. It roars I don't think it talks. Turning it off. I think there is a switch on the bottom of the toy.

Mine has a very good sound. It's a year old now and has been played by 4 grandchildren and myself. We all love it!

Hi!! There is an off/on button, however Its not just for the music. The button turns off all the activity for the toy. Hope this helps!

you push the circle a button with the music note on it and that makes it play. my son was able to do this from about 5 months

There's a switch on the bottom of the toy, I think for in-store displays to save batteries it only plays part of the song. Change the switch and it will play the whole song.

Gary, I was hoping to hear from you!!I left it off overnight - when I turned it on in the morning, it resumed (was in pause) at the same song that I have been listening to the night before. I needed only to press pause to resume!Hope this helps you.Happy to assist...these forums are wonderful!Jerry

My sons goes back and forth a few times then it does a full spin when it gets enough power. Then has to build up speed again back and forth. The battery lasts a long time. He is on his first battery since Christmas and at times, he lets it run all night long.

yes it bounces well. I wish it rocked back and forth easier than it does. My boys are only 19 months old, got it for Christmas 2 months ago and they have been able to move themselves on it since then. Definitely getting better and better as they get bigger.

No, it doesn't automatically play when he/she bounces. They must press the piano for music to play and it is a good little piano. Also, by the piano are color shaped buttons that play a little tune when pressed. My daughter loves that and dances to it!Rings can be reached if there is enough of an extension. So you may want to add a few rings linked together. It's a great way to get them moving by reaching for the outside rings.

I am sorry it has taken me awhile to get back to you. I called my son and the Kid Galaxy My First RC is still going fine. Liya is five. I gave it to her 12/12/2013. She only uses it inside as well, but her cousins (boys 9-11yrs) are always running it. I am so sorry to hear yours has stopped working, but it has been a good toy for us.
