Talk Button

the Microphone. Release the

You Should Know
For clear transmission, keep the antenna pointing
upwards and the microphone approximately two
inches from your mouth.
Sound Effects
Walkie Talkies can be used for all kinds of fun games
and activities. Here are two suggestions:
Hide and Seek
Just like regular Hide and Seek, but with a twist: the
“Hider” can send clues to the “Seeker” using the Walkie
Talkies.
Mystery Sounds
Can you recognize the mystery sound? One kid sends
a sound over the Walkie Talkies, while another tries to
guess what the sound is. Examples can include an
animal, song, TV show, or anything else!
It is important to keep the Walkie Talkies as dry and
clean as possible. You may clean the cabinet with a
cloth or sponge moistened with mild soap and water.
Do not attempt to use strong cleansers or solvents, as
they may cause damage.
