Kiwi kids LOVE them! Following a bright idea back in 2007 I gutted the noisy sound module & added a cheap (~ US$3) high level PICAXE microcontroller instead to great effect. This has recently been rustled up as a 'copyleft" Instructable => http://www.instructables.com/id/quotSnap_connectorquot_PICAXE_microcontroller Enjoy!
