We bought this for our little girl as a final surprise present to put her to bed with on her birthday. We had read the instructions so had batteries and a screwdriver to hand so all was ok and she was delighted at the Peppa Pig figures on her bedroom wall and the fact that we could make the dinosaur bigger or smaller at will. Trouble is, it is so easily left switched on - when putting your child to bed with such a present, one invariably forgets to go in to switch it off so it has, in fact, cost us a lot more in battery power than it did to purchase. As much as my daughter has enjoyed the torch, it would be a much more satisfactory purchase if it came with a charger. It would also help hugely if the lenses were on a keychain as they are very easily lost. I hope the manufacturer reads this review.
