This unique crib toy grows with your child from infant to toddler, with convenient remote control activation that can be used by mother and child at various stages of development. There are three separate modes of play for different stages of growth. In mode 1, mom controls Elmo and his pony with the remote control. They ride back and forth along the crib rail and play music as they light-up. In mode 2, mom or baby control Elmo using the remote control as they play music and light-up on a nearby shelf or dresser. In mode 3, toddlers easily control Elmo and his pony as they ride around in a circular pattern on the floor.
