 Loving This! November 29, 2005

This musical set was originally intended as a Christmas purchase, but I could not resist giving this as an early present. When it arrived in the mail, we opened it immediatly. I was pleasantly surprised with both the quality and quantity represented in this set. We are already having such a great time using these instruments! The kazoo is a favorite! With so much variety to choose from, our little dancer may never stop playing. I love the quality workmanship and the cultural span of the various instruments. Our 2-year-old loves marching in "parades", dancing and singing to the beat of favorite songs. This colorful set inspires get-up-and-dance energy for both adult and child! I am one very satisfied customer.

Talk about bang for your buck! 17 high-quality instruments for only 30 dollars? It doesn't get much better than this!
Modern toys are often "noisy".... they beep, they buzz, they play stupid songs and they provide little educational value. This great instrument set will provide kids with the "noise-making" that they crave, but with the educational value of actually making the noise on real instruments!
Parents, too, will have a hard time resisting the allure of these super-fun instruments. Your kids will be dingin' away on the triangle while you shake your thing with the maracas.... it'll provide interactive and fun play for years! Get some good CDs to accompany this set, while you're at it. A fun African CD (like Amadou and Mariam's "Dimanche a Bamako") will do the trick nicely, as most of these instruments are rhythm instruments that will fit in nicely with that highly rhythmic music.

My 3 year old plays with every instrument in this set and starts up a marching band regularly when we have friends over to visit. He has a great time with this, and I highly recommend it. It has also taken quite a beating and has proven to be extremely durable.
Toy Review January 1, 2008
This Melissa and Doug Deluxe Band Set was the hit of the party. I got it for my Nephews' first birthday and he loved it. He kept going back to it out of all the toys he received and his mother was a big fan. It was very bright and well put together just like all of their toys appear to be. I expect he will get many years of fun out of it.
Noisy but wonderful January 7, 2008
My 5 year old and 2 year old love this set! It is a very good quality set. Every thing (this is supposed to be wood) is made out of high quality wood. The other pieces are made of other high quality material (hermonic has no wood in it but is made of good materials). One of the clappers (That is what my kids call them not sure of the true name) had been broken but I have no clue how that happened (it was found under their bed broken after they had some friends over). Their dad was able to fix it and the kids don't know the difference.
