Editorial Review
There's nothing like watching small children fall in love with music. This baby grand will play Cupid to a toddler's relationship to music. Just the right size for little fingers, with bright colors, lights, and familiar songs and learning concepts; kids will need no introduction before getting in there and starting to tickle those ivories! Three modes of play encourage children to enjoy music, learn basic concepts (alphabet, counting, opposites, etc.), or just play notes and chords on the eight-key keyboard. A plastic songbook (built into the piano) uses numerals on musical notation to teach aspiring musicians the correlation between the sounds they hear, the notes on the page, and the keys on the keyboard. Slides and buttons and dials can be manipulated to adjust tempo, pitch, and style, while a metronome keeps time. And a friendly maestro monster looms over the piano, dancing as your artiste creates composes her or his opuses. The music, as with so many children's toys, is moderately unpleasant—nursery rhymes meet lounge jazz—but not the worst you'll ever hear. And the joy toddlers will get out of playing their own melodies, as well as the potential for learning, far outweighs the burden of listening to cheesy tunes. Or you can just keep it in note-playing mode, and skip the pre-recorded tunes altogether! Three "C" batteries required (not included). Some adult assembly is required. --Emilie Coulter

 Our son loves it! December 29, 2008
Cookie6868 (Houston, TX United States)
We bought this for our son's first birthday, and a couple of months later it's still his favorite toy. He loves music, and he loves pushing buttons, so we knew it would be perfect for him. It is so much more than just a piano, it's also taught him some rythm and the difference between fast and slow; there are so many knobs and buttons, it's fun to watch him figure out how each one works. There's one little tune in particular that gets him dancing like nothing else.
It's also very well made in that it seems indestructable. Sometimes he likes to push it around, and even knock it over. Like most toddlers, he's stronger than he looks, but it takes a beating and keeps on singing (literally).
Maybe they changed the design in the one we have, but there's no problem with pinched fingers. The sun does not move by itself, only if you grip it firmly and turn it back and forth manually - something he hasn't figured out how to do, and isn't strong enough for, yet . Also, we only paid about $40 or $50 for it at the store - and it wasn't on sale.
All-in-all, it is an excellent toy and learning tool. If something happened to it, not only would I not hesitate to buy another one, I'd probably rush to the store as soon as possible.
**** love it December 25, 2008

My granddaughter, age 13 months has her hips going all the time playing with this toy. Easy to assemble too, and comes with the batteries.
 My daughter loves this toy! December 8, 2008
Kerry S. Randall (Jerome, ID USA)
My grand daughter loves this toy. She plays it all the time. It has many differant options for her entertainment, lots of bright colors and numbers, music and beats to learn. I have only two complaints (1) the legs a little short so as she grows it will become to short (2) the legs aren't wide for to put her legs under the piano.
Great toy! December 5, 2008
Wendy A. Kramer (CA)
I bought this for my son for Christmas when he was 6 months old and he loved it. It is now a year later and he is 18 months old, the toy still works great despite how many time he has played with it, and he STILL loves it. It is by far the best toy I have ever bought him. It's well worth the money.
Play value lasts and lasts December 1, 2008
Marianne Walsh (BC, Canada)
We bought this toy for my son's first Christmas when he was just over a year old. A year later he still loves playing with it. He has a favorite song that he and Daddy started dancing to months and months ago. The batteries last forever in it, and it is so durable considering the abuse it has gotten. Now that he's two it has turned into a stool on occasion! It is one of the best toys we've bought and the only toy that has really grown with him. He's now starting to get into numbers and colors and the piano is right there with him. I highly recommend this toy.
