Duration of ownership: 99 Days
Strengths: Included speaker, two headphone inputs, included hook, suitable for kids
Weaknesses:difficult to navigate between songs particularly if one has a long list, included speaker sounds very tiny, volume is not loud in headphone; sound quality is very so so.
Overall Evaluation: It is suitable for kids (like 4 to 7) I think. The included speaker allows kids to listen to music without having to put the head phone in that may be a good thing for the kids such a young age. However, there are two headphone inputs when needed. Size and navigation method are good for kids, but adult may find it cumbersome. Battery life is moderate. The sound quality is very so so. The included hook is pretty neat to attach to backpack or belt hook. Colorwise (blue) is more universal.

Duration of ownership:
Strengths: Small, No Earphones Needed, Color Choice options, included SD card
Weaknesses:None yet
Overall Evaluation: I purchased the blue player for my grandson and this is a great MP3 player for children. It appears and feels sturdy. The controls are extremely easy to use and quite innovative. The "rings" which allow you to control volume and track selection are easy to operate for young kids, since you simply twist the top or bottom of the device. The only button to press on the unit is the on/off switch. The ability to shuffle tracks by shaking the device along with a goofy sound effect certainly appeals to kids. One of the main selling points for me was the built-in speaker, so the kids are not reliant on wearing headphones. It also can be attached to a lanyard to make it more difficult to lose.

Strengths: Easy to use, pretty easy to load music especially from a CD.
Weaknesses:Some of the preloaed music is borderline obscene
Overall Evaluation: It is next to impossible to figure out how to open the cover at the bottom of the player to access the battery and SD card. One bonus feature, that we didn't know, is the top of the Shaker is a speaker,

Strengths: Small, multiple headphone jacks, built in speaker, uses one (1)replaceable AAA alkaline battery. The unit comes with headphones, USB cable (uses USB 2.0), hanging clip, AAA battery, and 512MB SD card
Weaknesses:No built in memory
Overall Evaluation: The simplicity of this unit makes it great for children. The built in speaker allows the option of listing to music without the headphones. It does not produce great quality sound, but it is fun to watch the kids dance to the music without having to wonder to what part of "Old McDonald" they are listing. The two headphone jacks also allows multiple people to listen to the same device. Sturdy construction, expandable memory, easy operation (not too many buttons or functions) and replaceable battery. Makes a very nice player for younger music listeners.
