S/O Making Loud Toys Quieter

I recently heard if you put duct tape over the speaker of a toy with no volume control then it makes it bearable.
We tried it on my daughters Minnie mouse tricycle and it worked wonders!

    Having the batteries die is the best thing ever.... or since the IL's are the ones that always give these kinds of toys, I leave them at their house... let them deal with the noise!

    The tape trick has saved a few of Henry's toys from ending up in the garbage.

    We put a sticker over the speaker of the Busy Ball Popper. It worked...but putting it out in the garage worked so much better. Lol.

    LOL!

    I'm going to need an entire roll of duct tape to fix her Elmo crayon toy, Catch Me Kitty and the elephant that shoots balls out of its nose.

    Seriously, Catch Me Kitty is so loud and annoying! But we were the dumb ones and bought B that toy. Oops!

    I have done the tape trick a few times Wink

    The only thing I can't seem to quiet down is this Handy Manny truck that my sis passed on me (wonder why....). But DS loves that thing. I put it the garage for Christmas and he kept asking for it every 5 minutes, so I don't think it can permanently disappear...
