This horse is awesome. My nephew, though only 8 months old, loveds the noise it makes when you press the ear.
Angela Bridges –
My son loves his horse but the batteries went dead fairly quick and have no idea how to change them
Christina Meyer –
We’re sorry your stick horse sound mechanism has stopped. The battery chip inside the horse’s head does have a limited life expectancy, and unfortunately there is no way to replace it. You may see some responses saying the battery is in the ear, but it is manufactured inside the horse’s head/neck and is not accessible. Please send us proof of purchase to info@marymeyer.com and we will be in touch soon.

Unfortunately it’s a great toy for a kid but a waste of money since you can’t change the battery. My son loves it. He wants it to make noise again but I won’t waste my money on another. Bad battery design.

My kids are so attached to these horses…and now they’re heartbroken because it’s impossible to put in a new battery. WHY????

I just took the ear apart where the button is located and the wires are broken from the solder joints. Take the ear stitches where the ear hole would be, which should allow easy disguised cosmetic surgery. I found two blue wires, one was not connected to the switch. I don’t see a battery and I’m not going to dig any deeper to find it. Hope this helps.

My daughter loves this but it literally still has tags on it and the battery is already dead. We purchased this at a store while on a road trip 3 months ago, is there any way to replace the batteries? I no longer have the receipt of course I thought this would be a better longer lasting thing given the quality of the rest of your products

My daughter loves this horse but the battery or ear mechanism died in less than a day. Very disappointing for a Christmas gift that seemed so nice.

My son loves this toy but the sounds have stopped working—presumably because the battery is dead. I would not have purchased if I realized there was no way to change the battery.
Nicholas Riddle –
I bought this at a local toy store for my niece for Christmas and the battery is already dead before I have given it to her. There is apparently no way to replace the battery and reviews from years ago acknowledge the company is aware of this annoying issue and has done nothing to remedy it. The noises were the selling point on me getting the toy in the first place and now I’m going to have to locate the receipt or dispute this with my bank. Would not recommend if you plan on using this for the sounds.
