Aspiring film makers, artists, actors and photographers can get creative with Tobi 2 Robot Director’s Camera! Tobi™ 2 Interactive Karaoke Machine is the perfect gift for wannabe singing superstars, while aspiring film makers and photographers can take the spotlight with the Tobi™ 2 Director’s Camera! We think it’s a great choice for children as it’s easy to operate and has plenty to keep them occupied, besides singing.

With over 100 facial expressions, Tobi 2 Robot Smartwatch is packed with character and kids can interact with the many activities of this toy smartwatch. If you’re after something a little more affordable, the VTech Kidi Super Star DJ microphone and stand has plenty to keep big and little kids entertained. To use the kit at home you’ll need a computer (PC, Mac or laptop are all fine) or iPad and some amplified speakers (either through your TV or Hi-Fi, an iPod speaker dock or external computer speakers).Before playing with the Tobi Director's Camera, please check for available firmware updates by copying the following link into your browser: www.

It doesn’t have a Bluetooth connection, but if you want to sing along to your own songs you can plug in a battery-powered music player using the audio cable supplied.Plus, wireless play enables multi-player gaming with another Tobi 2 Robot Smartwatch, and an all-new enhanced UI makes usage more enjoyable and easier. We found it really straightforward to use with our Mac and TV speakers and set everything up before the kids got restless. It’s jam-packed with features which our six-year-old loved working through on their own, including games (the one where you have to make Tobi 2 explode with laughter by making funny noises was, naturally, a big hit) and sound effects (nothing like having a raucous round of applause at the press of a button to boost your confidence!

Ours was “The Wheels On The Bus” – a classic – although others do include either “Twinkle Twinkle” or the ABC song . It comes with 2 CDs, including kid-friendly tunes like “Let It Go” and “Baby Shark”, as well as songs by Ariana Grande and Little Mix for tweens and teens, right up to the old classics like “Son Of A Preacher Man” and “Sweet Caroline”. Star of the range is the award-winning Tobi™ Robot Smartwatch – the first and only ‘robot smartwatch’ in the world! We linked up to our iPad and made use of the handy tablet holder at the top of the machine to prop it up while we sang along to karaoke versions of our favourite songs via YouTube. Chatter and Beeper react to voices and sounds by lighting up and moving and offer three different ways to play by responding to kids, other Tobi Friends, and even Tobi Robot Smartwatch; when the watch is nearby, they will respond to Tobi’s expressions, emojis, alarms and more.Although it’s relatively compact – measuring 35cm x 26cm x 32cm – it’s quite heavy (this would be thanks to its wooden cabinet exterior to help with acoustics, FYI), and we were initially concerned set-up would be complicated with a piece of kit this high-spec. Super-quick and easy to set up, we had a queue of little testers lining up to give this fun VTech number a try. And if your children ever tire of the Disney-fest (ours didn’t), you can also use the USB port to stream your own songs instead.

Now, we know you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover, but the moment we all laid eyes on this cool-looking karaoke machine we were won over. We loved how the stand is height adjustable simply by removing sections, which meant we could fit it to the perfect height for our six-year-old tester as well as our three-year-old, no problem.

As the name suggests, it’s a microphone rather than a full karaoke unit, but simplicity is key when it comes to young children and our little tester loved being able to operate this all on their own. Two high-definition cameras capture all the action, while they can get super-creative with the green screen and built-in backgrounds – will they become a superhero, newsreader, astronaut or something else entirely?We get it, sometimes singing along to “We Don’t Talk About Bruno” on the TV just doesn’t cut it – which is where this colourful karaoke machine steps in. We loved how lightweight it was, and our testers easily carried it around the house to entertain us with their performances. While our older tester liked to experiment with this, it was the voice effects, where you can change your voice from a squeaky mouse to a robot at the touch of a button, that was the most-used function by far. Built-in Bluetooth technology allows kids to connect the machine to an external music device, and they can use their Tobi 2 Robot Smartwatch as a remote control. There’s everything here from the “belt-it-out” “Shallow”(sadly a star was not born with our rendition, but there you go) to the crowd-pleasing “Jolene”, but for our little testers it was the inclusion of the Peppa Pig classic “The Bing Bong Song” which set off mass hysteria.
