Now, my oldest two kids have refurbished ipod nano’s that my mom bought them for their birthdays last year. The younger two however have been bugging me to get them ipod’s too! Sorry but I’m not into forking over that kind of cash for my 6 year old to tote around some tunes and feel grown up. Disney to the rescue with a solution. Disney Mixsticks allow your child to listen to music in two different ways.
The first way to play songs is by the SD/MMC card slot, this slot plays WMA/MP3 songs that have been saved to SD/MMC cards. You can also buy SD/MMC cards that already come preloaded with music onto the cards. The Disney Company sells them under the name of Mix Clips. The Mix Clips offer the convenience of a full CD’s worth of songs in one little SD/MMC card.
The second way that the Disney Mix Stick plays songs are to take them directly from your computer. To do so is very easy, simply take the end off of the Disney Mix Stick and plug it directly into your computer. Any songs from your computer that are in the MP3/WMA format can be loaded unto your Disney Mix Stick just like any other MP3 player! It also comes with software to load to your computer to help you with the copying of music files from your computer to your Mix Stick MP3 player.
Because it comes from Disney I can trust that it’s going to be sturdy and not break five minutes after my kids take them out of the box. Oh yeah, guess what’s on my Christmas shopping list?!? The one pictured here is the High School Musical version, kids everywhere from the Outer Banks to LA know the words to every song in this darn movie. I’ve actually been surprised by the age ranges this movie has encompassed. Way to go Disney. My kids love this movie as much as I love Grease, it’s definitely amazing.
But, if you kid isn’t a High School Musical fan, no worries. There are plenty of other Disney designs to choose from your Mix Stick including the infamous Disney Princesses. Or if you want to be super cool you can get the plain chrome design. And dare I say that this little MP3 is cute enough that I might even get one for myself!
