Elmo ABCs the Remix

Apparently one of the great skills I acquired in my many years in a call center environment is the ability to selectively tune out all sorts of noises, while instantly becoming aware of silence. I consider this to be a rather handy skill for all parents, as silence is never a good thing in a call center or in a house with 2 small children. This is the only toy that I have been unable to tune out thus far.

The big red button that Alex has his finger on causes Elmo to sing the alphabet. Nothing fancy, just A-Z in the usual song. Unless it's pressed repeatedly. Then it sounds like:
ABCABABCDEFGHABCDABCDEFABABABABABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ

It's actually a very cool toy...fun and educational, but that one button just might get broken....accidentally of course!

You have to sing those letters in Elmo's voice to get the full effect.
