Packaging wasn’t the best but the item itself is wonderful Bought for my sons birthday. Packaging wasn’t the best but the item itself is wonderful. Love that it came with some sheet music so my child can learn a song.
Fun and durable. Our Littles love it! Big siblings stop and play with them and show them how to play the tunes included…very cute! Well made also…I think it will last a while. Just make sure the kids put the music card and the “play stick/caterpillar ear thingies” back in the toy and not have them throw the thing in the toy bin so they don’t get separated from the toy.
This is a good xylophone, but with so many on the market This is a good xylophone,but with so many on the market, I was hoping for better design. The mallets (caterpillar antennae) can be stowed nicely underneath the instrument. The music sheet, not so stowable. This would be vastly improved by a clasp or shelf or some other mechanism designed to keep sheet music on board. I have seen a similar idea successfully engineered in a children’s lap harp. Also, the sheet music is not very extensive. More songs would be nice.
