Now, the eagle-eyed amongst you might have noticed a new badge popping up in my sidebar there, letting people know that I’m now a KD UK ambassador. They produce toys and work hard to ensure that their products are innovative, educative and fun, with ranges such as Peppa Pig, Frozen, Something Special, In the Night Garden, Fireman Sam and Disney Princesses – all popular here so the kids are delighted, of course!
The first item that we have been sent to test out is this Disney Frozen My Smartphone
Frozen fans can call Elsa, Anna, Olaf, Sven and all of their favourite characters on this great new Disney Frozen Smartphone!
When they press the power button, tots enter discovery mode and can hear all about the characters.
They can also choose one of four games – Appointment; Message; Call; and Quiz, which will help teach about colours, numbers and the characters, while developing hand-eye coordination and observation skills while they play.
Ages: 2 Years+
It arrived nicely packaged, and just had a couple of those ties on the back of it to secure it in the box. Which meant it was only a matter of seconds before I had it free of it’s confines and into the children’s hands. Boo loves it because it’s Frozen, it’s interactive and it’s a phone, Little Man just wants to chat on it!
It’s very simple to use and fits nicely in both children’s hands. There is a character recognition game, along with gaming involving the numbers and colours on each button you see there. From a parenting point of view, I like that it’s educational, it’s taken a fair few hits and knocks and is still going strong without a scratch on it, and the all-important one – it’s not too loud and doesn’t irritate me!
It’s easy to take out and about, as apart from being small enough to slot into my bag, it fits in Boo’s pocket so she feels special with her own phone…
Boo having a really in-depth conversation with herself!
And it kept Little Man entertained waiting for his food in a restaurant recently…
It was sweet to see them both using this as a normal phone, especially as they look to be really concentrating! Boo’s 5 and Little Man’s 2 and they both like to play with this one. The games are very easy for Boo, but she loves having her own phone with her. Operating it so that he’s actually playing the games is a bit beyond Little Man at the moment, but I can see him enjoying the number and colour recognition in a few months time. And in the meantime, there’s always the chatting!
I don’t know about you, but we have bought various toy phones in the past, as the kids do seem very drawn to them. It’s not surprising given the amount of time they seem mine in my hand, I suppose! What’s impressed me about this one, is that it’s within that same price range that I’ve paid before, but it has considerably more functions and is more educational, along with it being branded – I mean, anything Frozen goes down extremely well here, yet is often quite costly. This is currently selling for £10, which I think is a very reasonable price. What do you think?
Disclosure: Product was FOC for the purposes of this review, though all words and opinions remain my own.
Wow, my girls would LOVE this… and Amazon have them in stock! Might have just solved the riddle of what to get their uncle to buy for them 🙂
Happy to help!
This looks and sounds fantastic for any Frozen fan!
A very reasonable price too x
Yep, that’s just what I think! x
So cute that Boo carried it round in her back pocket like that! Like a real phone!
I know – I so loved seeing it in that back pocket!
Oh dear, this looks like a toy little T would love to have. x
It’s fun, and quite quiet, too!
LP would love this, she is Frozen crazy at the moment! x
It is a really lovely stocking filler for Frozen fans, and it does do more than toy phones we’ve had before x
That is lovely, all little ones seem to be obsessed with mobile phones so this is a perfect gift.
#Tried/Tested
Exactly! Thanks x
Ah my Chlo is obsessed with Frozen and would love this!
Thanks for linking up with ##TriedTested this week x
It is a fun toy! Thanks for hosting x
Oooh I have a little lady who would love this!! We now have a Frozen mad house x #TriedTested
Ah, haven’t we all ?! x
I love these pictures so so much. Far too cute. Looks like a fab product, I think £10 is really good x
Thank you, they so love playing with it! Yes, the price impressed me, good value at that, I think x
I’m not sure about the Frozen theme, but Monkey would love something like that. He is always borrowing my phone #TriedTested
Oh yes, mine like to ‘borrow’!
What is it with phones-as you say though, they see us with them often enough! I can see a time when my eldest will be asking for a ‘real’ one-now that will be an interesting conversation 🙂
Looks like a good product and well done on the ambassador role too x
Oh no – good luck with that! It is, they like it, and thank you 🙂
I have never heard of KD UK before I will have to check them out. This toy looks great and I am sure that any Frozen fan would love to receive this for Christmas as it looks like lots of fun and is a great price too x #TriedTested
It would make a lovely little gift, and yes, a great price 🙂
That’s a great price for a branded product, Frozen is so popular at the moment most flog the toys are pricey! X
I know, I was impressed!
This looks fab! Two of Bella’s favourite things at the moment- Frozen and mobile phones! 😀 x x
Ah, the perfect combo for Bella then! x

My two girls would live this. Like you I’ve bought many toy phones but they all have lost appeal with the girls quickly or irrate me.
This really doesn’t irritate, which surprised me!
