DD needs one! Please, even if they only play with it for two minutes before reaching for yours again...

    No play phone is equally to a real one,.  At least to DS they are not.  So he has an old cell phone that has a battery to make the nosies but does not dial out.

    I like the one made by Parents.  They are in the educational toy section at Target for like $15.  It is a flip phone  that allows you to record a message so DC can play it back, and makes all the "real" sounds.  DD loves hers.  She always carries it around in her back pocket.

    We have a Fisher Price one that DS loves...it's mostly white w/ a little red on it.  I think it's from Wal-mart, about $7-8.  I recently got a new cell and he does use my old phone - like pp, I've charged it so it still lights up, beeps, etc.  It doesn't call out, but it can still call 911 so I only let him play w/ it when I'm watching him - it's a great distraction for diaper changes.

    We gave DS an old cell phone...it's the only one he likes playing with. Why can't they make one that looks and sounds like a regular cell phone????

    This is what we do! Em has my old cell phone and we just plug it in and charge it up:) She can't dial any one but it lights up, she can push all the buttons and she's happy!

    Ditto this.  DS loved this phone.  We lost it for awhile, but it's turned up, so we'll have to see if he still loves it. 

    I agree with whoever posted saying that there's nothing that compares to a real phone.  DS isn't even fooled by "his" cellphone which is a real cellphone with batteries that doesn't dial out.  He'd rather have mine or DH's.
