I'm sure we all have them. We have a leapfrog drum that randomly went off and right now we have an animal sounds puzzle that randomly makes animal sounds. It always goes off when we turn off the light in the room before bed but over the past few days I've discovered another time it always goes off- around 430 to 6. It goes off at least 5 times during that timespan. We really just need to take the batteries out b/c it drives me crazy.
Anyone know why this happens?
Re: Toys that randomly make sounds
haha, yes! Emmie got this bath toy, Captain Jo Jo!
It would randomly go off & toot the horn & start singing it's song! Needless to say...captain Jo Jo sank!
Possessed.
Um, j/k, but it is kinda freaky sometimes. We have an animal sounds puzzle that makes random noises too. DD had a little stuffed dog that was supposed to bark when you squeezed it, but then it started barking randomly all. the. time. DH took a hammer to it and it doesn't bark anymore.
It didn't have removable batteries.
OMG DD loves this toy! We turn it upside down so nothing touches the sensor and it stays quiet.
B has a remote-controlled fire truck that likes to randomly lurch forward and make noise. DH tells me it's probably because someone in an adjacent condo has something (phone, whatever) on the same frequency. Still creepy.
He also has an old Winnie the Pooh electronic "book" that starts singing randomly. Very creepy, and when the batteries start to die in it Pooh sounds absolutely possessed.

We have one without batteries. I don't even know how it is still operating, but it's this frog thing. It has a bunch of colors and a rolling ball in the middle. It "ribbits" whenever it moves.
For fun, we put it in the car when my little sister borrowed the car. She went crazy trying to figure out where the noise was coming from. Everytime she made a turn, went over a bump or breaked the thing went off.
