Prism of fun!
Plastic prism encourages exploration on all five sides. A music box plays and tiny lights flash when a wooden roller is rolled; a bulb lights when a finger is poked into a hole; a tug on a pull-ball produces a buzzing sound; a round plate vibrates when touched. The fifth side has a Velcro-attached, unbreakable plastic mirror which hides the battery compartment. Size: 11" x 14".
