Amazon.com Review
Play "Tickle Monster" in a new way with Elmo's Tickle Hands from Fisher Price. Modeled after the hands of the favorite Muppet mascot, these furry red gloves are designed for the tiniest hands. Designed for kids aged 18 months for four years, the right glove shakes when you tickle someone, giving kids a new experience as they play. The hands even play a song, and come with an exclusive DVD that teaches your kids how to do the accompanying dance.

Elmo's Tickle Hands Ages: 18 months to 4 years Requires: 2 "AA" batteries (included)

What We Think Fun factor: Durability: Ease of assembly: The Good: Soft, gentle gloves perfectly suited for tickling. The Challenging: Tickle sensor/vibrator is located only on one hand; somewhat limited use. In a Nutshell: An interactive toy for young children that will encourage them to move and dance.

These soft, furry mittens are ideal for tickling. View larger.

Soft and Comfortable Design
With these mittens on, your child can feel just like Elmo. The gloves are sized for children from two to four years of age, and are quite flexible. Crafted from polyester fabric and coated in a soft, fluffy, red "fur," the gloves have a feathery texture, which makes them ideal for tickling. However, if they get dirty, do not throw them in the washing machine; the material is made for surface washing only.

When touched to a surface, the right glove gently vibrates. It also plays back a variety of phrases from Elmo, including his signature laugh. Buyers should be aware that only the right glove has these special electronic features; the left hand is simply a mitten. Still, the toy should succeed in providing hours of ticklish fun.

Tickling with a Groovy Twist
Elmo's Tickle Hands also come with an exclusive DVD that features a dance lesson on how to perform Elmo's brand new dance -- the "Tickle Hand Groove." This is a simple dance that children will be able to learn with ease.

The DVD is hosted by Elmo, himself, and has all the charm of any Sesame Street feature. Kids will find the accompanying song upbeat and danceable. The song can be played at any time by pressing the image of Elmo's face on the right glove.

What's in the Box
Two tickle hands and instructional dance DVD.

Kids will love learning how to do Elmo's brand new dance -- the "Tickle Hand Groove."

Customer Reviews

Cute but I see it getting old really quick.
My little one HAD to have tickle hands for her 3rd birthday. She seems to like them well enough but as with many toys I don't see this one having much staying power. It comes with a dvd that has Elmo singing his little song and a dance to go with the tickle hands but she loves going tickle everyone in the room with them. One hand is just cloth while the other has the box in it where the music comes from. Don't get accidently hit with the one with the music box in it...it'll hurt. Also the dog might not be so happy with the tickle hands (same goes for the cat). So if your child has heavy hands...I'd look for a different toy.

cute toy would be nicer if...
This is a cute musical toy, but would be nicer if BOTH hands (gloves) "tickeled". The description does tell you that only one hand sings and tickles, but it is still kind of strange to have one that does nothing at all. My 19 month old will probably ignore the non-active hand, unless one of us uses it with him while he is playing with the active one. Maybe older tots, who watch Elmo, will put on both gloves and dance with the musical DVD included.

Very short-lived fun
I know this looks cute, but it's worth at most 15 minutes of fun. Definitely not worth the money.
