It must be too much trouble for some.
The gaps between the conversation can be filled with.....nothing.
Let the child look around and observe......kids don't need to be bombarded with music/muzak all the time. One of the things I noticed when my two were babies was why does everything have to make a noise?
I struggled to buy anything for my babies from toys to potties that didn't play a tune.....and a very annoying tune at that. It's always pop goes the weasel or London Bridge is falling down.
It's enough to drive you to a nervous breakdown after a while.
Manufacturers......we want silence!
