About this deal

Up for in depth review at the hands of Little Savvy and Baby Savvy were two offerings from Fisher Price. The Bright Beats Dance and Move BeatBelle; an interactive movement based bot. And along with this, the Bright Beats Learnin’ Lights Dance Mat – an extension of the Bright Beats range.

Movement is based around “hip” action and side-to-side head bopping. Lights are displayed in a disco-style on the BeatBelle’s tummy and interactive sound and speech is incorporated via a speaker at the rear and a microphone at the top of the BeatBelle’s head. The green button activates the “Dance and Move” function. A series of programmed movements, music and interactions to encourage little ones to get active. We particularly liked the fact that the music covered a range of tempo. This meant that alongside the perks of the exercise Little Savvy was getting as he bounced around the room to upbeat tunes, there was also a range of slower tempo sections to calm, sooth and mellow the excitement. Now is also a good time to say there’s a low volume setting too! Well done Fisher Price! For toddlers the mat’s usage need to be modelled first to get the most out of it. Little Savvy for example would happily jump between sections of the mat, cutting it off mid activity or tune. It needs a degree of adult-led modelling before then allowing them independent enjoyment. The BeatBelle essentially does three main things. It dances, interacts with singing, and displays sensory lighting.Gross Motor: Movin', shakin' and dancin' along with BeatBelle™ DLX gets your baby's gross motor skills into gear. Sensory: Your baby's senses will be "dancing" too, with the variety of fun music, lights & textures.

Thinking Skills: As babies discover all the ways to make BeatBelle™ DLX boogie, they'll see how their actions can make fun things happen—a great intro to cause & effect! Another big hit with the Savvy household, this interactive dance mat is essentially a BeatBo model that clips onto a pivot point in the middle of the dance mat. Once in place it serves as a focus for movement around the mat and was particularly great for Baby Savvy starting to crawl and kneel up obstacles. It encourages upright movement around a central point.The coloured buttons worked in a similar way to the BeatBelle’s functions offering up tunes and melodies to move around to. As with the BeatBelle the melodies varied in tempo and delivered an array of developmental activities. The mat has led functionality beneath the surface providing a lovely sensory experience, great with the lights out. Small holes on the interactive pivot base have motion sensors to detect babies or toddlers moving between the mat’s coloured zones and, while a great idea, this proved a little erratic at times. The mat certainly responded best to one child at a time, but still required the children to move at certain speeds to register on the motion sensor (this would be our main note for the developers).

Records the default button state of the corresponding category & the status of CCPA. It works only in coordination with the primary cookie. The last of the buttons, a yellow one, is for games and learning. Again it’s rhyme or music based, but includes games and songs like “Move and Freeze”, “Colours”, “Counting” and the “ABC Dance”. Standing at approximately 30cm tall, the BeatBelle is the perfect height for babies transitioning to sitting and crawling. Similarly it is also a good size for toddlers who might be dancing around it while in use.
