Fisher Price - Soothe & Glow Seahorse (play your music longer, dagnammit!)

If you, like me (you really like me?! Ha punctuation joke) received this nifty gift because you just had a baby, you would have quickly realized that this adorable, velvaty toy only exhibits its warm orange glow and soft, lulling music for less that 5 seconds.

How is that suppose to hold my baby's attention while I take my 2 minute shower (timed tested and proven, ladies and gentlemen)

Apparently, after scouring the interwebs, I discovered that these chubby toys are in demo mode by default. I've since discovered a way to change it to its original intended mode (read: hypnosis)

Oh look! Nifty pictures!

First, open up the velcro at the back of the sea horse. Taking out the actual operational part might prove difficult but I find it easier if you bend it a little and ease the bottom part out first.

Once out, take a look at its "head". You'll notice a switch that is at the bottom location. That's the demo mode. Nudge that little bugger up to the highest point and you'll be greeted with a pleasant bubbling noise.

Insert the terminator-like part back to its fuzzy home and squeeze the belly once more.

Now go take a shower.

Note: You can put it back to its demo mode although you might find it hard to nudge the switch all the way back down. You'll need to insert something small into that hole and push down while sliding the switch. I used the end of a paperclip.
