Beautiful Doll!
After reading the reviews I purchased this doll for my daughter since she's become such a fan with the release of the video! Naturally, since she IS a mermaid, she wanted to put her in the bath with her but I told her Ariel would lose her voice and wouldn't be able to sing to her in bed at night so we should just sit her up near the tub! Really a beautiful doll, love the sparkly tail...

Great Toy
I bought this doll for my daughter this past summer. Although she wanted to play with it in the water- after looking at it I wouldn't allow her due to the holes where the sound comes out. Since we don't read directions I am glad I made that decision after reading the other reviews. This cannot be a water toy, there is no plastic or barrier to block the water from going in. I allow her to just dip the tail part in, but I have warned her if she submerges her it will break. Otherwise she is captivated by the tail lighting up and it really is a beautiful doll. She plays with her everyday and it is not one of the toys that she ever stores away. She has brought her to pre-school for show and tell and the other girls were impressed with it.

Beautiful doll not great for water though
We purchased this doll for our 3 yr old who is an Ariel fanatic. The doll is very pretty (although loud) and our daughter loves it, however, even though the directions say water toy we had the same problems that a previous poster had. The first couple of times the doll was wet she would sound muffled but once she dried out she was fine. She didn't recover after the third time and now when she sings it's a terrible screaching. My daughter said she sounds like Ursula when she's mad, and is scary. We finally had to remove the battery because if you made her light up and sing she would screach and wouldn't shut off on her own. I would recommend this doll for any Ariel fan but would strongly caution against getting it wet.

Wonderful Doll
I bought this doll for my niece's 5th birthday. The doll sings great (& yes it is loud). Her tail lighting up is beautiful! We weren't sure if the doll would work after being submerged in water but the directions and all packaging indicate that the doll is a water toy. So, my niece took the doll in the bathtub with her and NO PROBLEMS! She still works. It's such a great doll that my daughter now wants one too.

Do NOT put this doll in water!!!!
I bought this BEAUTIFUL doll for my daughter's birthday in July '06. Since it says in the packaging that the doll is a water toy, we allowed our daughter to take Ariel to her swimming birthday party later that SAME day. Ariel sings a nice song - but it is difficult to understand some of the words and it is quite loud & annoying. The lights in her tail are gorgeous, though!! BUT!! Once the doll was submerged in water, her singing became very obviously affected by the water going into her 'speaker holes' & within an hour of the party - Ariel stopped working altogther! Neither my husband nor I believed this doll should ever be put in water because of the speaker holes & the battery area that is in her back that looks like it would also allow water inside....but we found it stated on the 'directions sheet' inside the box that this doll is a water toy - so we allowed it - and now this pretty doll does not do anything.
