I checked this thing out in a toy store...Didnt buy it yet only because the kid's not even born. I do plan to encourage music so I'm looking at whats out there. This one seems like a good choice. Its colorful, but not overstimulating...as one reviewer said of another toy, " it doesn't scream cheap plastic kids toy" which you may or may not find important. I do, because I wonder if most kids (or ...             Plan Toy Oval Xylophone29 reviews Plan Toys Plan Toys, 2006 Birthday gift for grandaughter This was a birthday gift for a one year old grandaughter. Her parents had to take it away from her to get her to open her other gifts. It remains her choice to play with a month later. She wants it first thing in the morning and plays it much of the day. Probably the biggest hit ever for a gift for a grandchild!             SE 3pcs Jewelers Eye Loupe 10x 30x Loupes + Dual 10X-20X26 reviews Top Optifcal Instruments Top Optifcal Instruments handy little things! You really can't beat the price for these with a stick. It's also nice that they happen to be well made little loupes. I use mine for identification of insects and plant diseases, not stones, but I'm sure they'd be just fine for that too.             Fisher-Price Classic Xylophone11 reviews Fisher-Price Fisher-Price Great Little one loves this! My only complaint would be that it sounds a little flat, but I don't have the greatest ear, so it really could just be me. Very glad we purchased this!             Munchkin Mozart Magic Cube432 reviews Munchkin Munchkin Amazing Musical Baby Toy...Finally! Most musical baby toys are terrible. The songs are poorly arranged and annoying as hell. This box plays enjoyable tones and tunes that baby can mix and match to create either a fuller orchestra sound or solo instrumentation. I bought this toy for my baby niece and she has loved it since about 4 mos on (she will be 1 soon). It is fun yet low key, durable, and as long as the batteries aren't dying ...             LeapFrog Learn & Groove Counting Maracas60 reviews LeapFrog LeapFrog Fun Maracas! One of the Maracas counts to 10, tells the colors of the rainbow, and makes songs in both English & Spanish while lighting up in the appropriate colors. When you shake the other maraca it makes sounds like beans are shaking around inside of it.             Hohner Kids 8" Mini Plastic Rainmaker10 reviews Hohner Hohner Love it! We bought this for our daughter's 1st birthday and we love it! So much fun to play with...even our older kids like it. I wasn't sure if this size would be too small, but its perfect. I wouldn't want it any larger.             LeapFrog Learn & Groove Alphabet Drum81 reviews LeapFrog LeapFrog, 2006 Love this drum I did not buy it off of amazon, but i was searching on amazon for an price on it. My son loves the drum and he loves the light and sounds it has. It does seem very durable. The only thing I do not like about is it does not do the numbers only the abc's, but overall I would recommened this toy to anyone. I even love the drum.             Remo Kids Percussion, Floor Tom, 10 Diameter with Mallet, Rain Forest Fabric46 reviews Remo Remo, 2008 great kids drum not annoying with its sound Tons of reviews have been written about this drum and having read them much helped me buy it. The sound is indeed pleasant, is indeed a drum-like sound, although I haven't heard many other kids drums, apart from one or two made in Soviet Union, when I was a kid, about 25 or so years ago. My 22 month-old son enjoys playing it, although he doesn't really remember to take it himself, unless I bring ...             Hohner 5 Piece Toddler Music Band9 reviews Hohner Hohner The grandkids are coming! With three grandchildren under 4 years old, I'm always looking for "group" activities. They enjoyed trying the different instruments in this set and creating original music together. Colored music scores are included for use with older children.             Musical Hand Bells19 reviews Schylling Schylling Love, Love, Love these! I am a preschool teacher and Sunday school teacher as well. I use these color bells for both classes and they have held up. The kids love them, the parents cry (for joy) :) when they hear their children play them, and they make a wonderful sound. I have a total of four sets due to the number of children I have. They make a wonderful addition to any program or performance.             Early Learning Centre / Saxophone with Color Coded Keys15 reviews Early Learning Centre Ltd. Early Learning Centre Ltd. Two Year Old LOVES IT We bought this as one 2nd birthday presents for our son and he LOVES IT. He plays the sax while his dad plays his other toy trumpet. He really seems to enjoy playing it, helps his little fingers learn to move up and down an instrument while playing, and most of all he is so PROUD while he plays it. I think this is great for any child!             Roll-Up Electric Piano15 reviews Get Organized Get Organized Loved it Gave this to my grandaughter for christmas and she loves it..we all did.

I bought it for my 3 year old daughter and she loves it. It is very durable and it takes a lot of abuse. The only complaint that I have is with the pink tube that extends on the stand. It will NOT stay up. It is constantly sliding down. In order to keep it up my husband wrapped small rubber washers around both of the extension poles. that works very well and ...             International Playthings Flash Beat Drum40 reviews International Playthings International Playthings, 2006 Lots of fun! This toy is great, especially if your little one is beginning to bang on things, crawl or working on sitting. I have twins and they both love this toy. We can sit them up in front of it to bang on the top or on the side it has chimes that make sound as it rounds so they chase after it. Each of them seems to like a different function and they have knocked it around a lot and it is still working ...             Basic Beat Pair of 8" Combination Rhythm Sticks11 reviews Nicely made rhythm instrument for kids We purchased several sets for a Summer Sunday School program with an emphasis on music.
