Tika can place the princess in the basket seat on her back underneath the spinning umbrella, and can hold the pretty flowers or a hairbrush in her trunk. Requires 3 "AA" batteries, not included. Tika measures 13"L x 4.5"W x 12"H; dolls each measure 4.25" tall.

Cute      By AREHJAXG34D6C on 2007-09-28
I got this for my daughter's 5th birthday. It is cute, but the swing around trunk is useless. Tika is supposed to swing her trunk around, pick up the little doll and put her on her back. You are supposed to put one of the little dolls in front of Tika on a little cardboard mat that shows you where to place them. 9 times out of 10 it misses, which became very frustrating for my daughter. She also ownes the little elephants that you hook together. She would much rather play with those.
Junk, junk, junk!      By A1DJBZMF3WZG9M on 2007-10-23
I'll admit it- I was thinking that this probably wasn't a good call when I bought it. But my daughter really, really wanted it for her birthday- in fact, it was the only thing she wanted! So, I bought it. It is VERY hard to use correctly- you need to sit the mini Barbies JUST SO at a certain distance on the "template leaf" (direct quote). The, half the time, it doesn't work anyway, or the doll falls off, or the trunk falls off the elephant. Most of the time, our elephant sits with his trunk fallen off. Sad, and a waste. If your child really loves it, buy the mini version- it doesn't throw the dolls around, but it's cheaper and works better (it rolls.)
Swing & Twirl Tika Toy      By AG6TH9VP96H73 on 2007-12-03
This was a birthday present for my granddaughter and she loved it. It was a little difficult figuring out how to match the dolls exactly so that the elephant would pick them up, but once we figured it out, we played for a long time.
Great gift. Not sure how long it will last as there are a lot of small pieces to it. But I'd definitely purchase again.
Great toy..just takes practice!~      By A1RGZIIJ06GKBR on 2007-12-25
I almost did not purchase this toy for my 4 year old daughter for Christmas,after seeing some reviews,but she wanted it so badly,I decided to go ahead.
It does take some practice,there is a little mat where you need to place Tika's feet,and the little princess,but when everything is postioned just right,they all work great.We have had a hit and miss a couple of times,but it really does work just fine,and my daughter claps her hands and squeals when it works.I got this on sale on Amazon for a very reasonable price,and am very pleased overall.
Lots of fun!!!      By A1MN7XJC7ZOEID on 2007-12-25
If you have an ounce of patience you'll be able to figure out just where to place the elephant and the little girl so the trunk will pick her up 99% of the time. Lots of fun!!!
