What parents are saying
AI summary of customer 233 reviewsThe Lion King Tonie has received mixed reviews. While some customers appreciate the interactive features and find it a good way to introduce the story to young children, many are disappointed by the lack of original songs from the movie and the poor sound quality of the cover versions. The Tonie is missing some of the most popular songs, which is a significant drawback for some users. Overall, the product may be better suited for younger children new to the Lion King franchise rather than older fans of the movie.

Shocking covers, not original songs
byNot the original songs, terrible covers. Very misleading advertising I’d say

Misleading track list
byAs others have said. Not the original songs and my kids noticed immediately. They aren't even good covers. Must have to do with avoiding paying trademark or something. First tonie the kids disliked

I would recommend, so much fun!
byA really fun Tonie! My 1 year old absolutely loves this. There are a few songs we would have liked to have included, but it’s no biggie because we love the ones that are on there and have so much fun singing along! I’m really glad I bought this. I read the reviews beforehand and noticed quite a few negative ones, but honestly, I think it’s definitely worth the money. The narration of the story is lovely, and I even find myself listening to it while I’m cleaning up 😂. I would highly recommend this!

Terribly Low Volume
byMy 2.5 year old loves the songs on this, but the volume is RIDICULOUSLY low. Even on the highest volume, you can hardly hear "I Just Can't Wait To Be King" which is his favorite song. Really really disappointed in the volume/lack thereof. I kept it because he still loves listening to it, but was very tempted to return. It is SO quiet.

Good story, let down by the music
byVery disappointed that the music isn't from the original soundtrack! The covers are poor quality, it feels like we've ended up with a bootleg. Thankfully my daughter isn't too phased. The story section is well done, with original character voice clips. Music completely lets the product down.
