Melissa & Doug Learn-To-Play Xylophone

My baby and I both love to play with this. It is very well made and it seems like the kind of thing we will have for a very long time. I love playing real songs with the cute little music cards it comes with. Very user friendly. My baby is only five months old and we’ve already spent many hours playing with this. He loves to hit the keys with the mallets!

We got this item for our one year old. Since we have other children who are a little older, we thought they could also get some use out of the toy by following the song cards. I was thoroughly impressed by the song cards when I opened the package; they are made of a thick plastic (sort of on the lines of the kind of plastic that credit cards are made from) and not made from cardboard, which is what I was anticipating. These cards are ingenious! and perfect for small children who drool, shove them into the slot, and have a tendency to step on them. Yet they aren't getting damaged! I very much recommend this product because of the song cards. The xylophone has worked great and I very much like the storage drawer. Both mallets fit in the drawer with the song cards, however the mallets must be inserted in a particular direction.

I really like the drawer where you can store the hammers and notes so it is not laying around. It is sturdy, well made. The only thing that I can complain about is that the tones are just a little dull sounding. But all in all I would recommend this.

My granddaughter loves this xylophone which she calls a "desico". Surprisingly enough it is not that annoying for the adult listeners as she bangs away on it. It is one of her favorite toys at Grandma's house.

Awesome, love the storage drawer to place cards and how flat it can be with no distractions. The paint does chip/melt off but in my book it’s okay it’s totally safe.

Amazing toy! Love that it comes with the colour coded scores to the songs so we can play actual songs with our baby!! And the mallets and song sheets tuck away neatly into a built in drawer! Genius!! No clutter and less chances of losing the mallets and the song sheets !Love love love!

The reason I chose to purchase this xylophone was mostly due to the beautiful song cards, which introduce musical notes and tones in an age-appropriate way. My very active Pre-K daughter loves this instrument, and is able to sit nicely while following the song cards. She is picking up on proper rhythm and tempo of each different song, without any instruction from myself. I definitely recommend this xylophone, and I wish I had found it sooner for my daughter!

Adorable, such a fun way for kids to learn how to play music! My 3 year old loves it!
