Little Tikes Jungle Jamboree Tiger Piano and Xylophone Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)After taking my 8 month old to a friends house where he loved their kids xylophone and especially the full sized piano we got this toy for our son.
Yes the strings are short and a little one doesn't know how to hold the mallet handles on their own, but I can position the mallets in his hands properly and he does just fine. They are just long enough to be able to strike all the surface of each bar with the end just fine.
It is very sturdy. My 8mo old likes to bang on it pretty hard and so far we've had no problems with it coming apart.
My big gripe with it, though, is that two of the bars are clearly out of tune (the 3rd and 8th from the lowest pitch). It looks like they just cut the bars using an evenly increasing size rather than properly sizing them to match a major diatonic scale. I know this probably isn't a big deal, but I'm really sensitive to things being in tune, and besides do you want your developing kid to get used to a musical scale that's out of tune?

Schylling Xylophone - Wooden Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a cute toy, but the one I received has one key way out of tune. I got it for my young son because he loves music and I wanted him to be able to make his own, but teaching young ears with an out-of-tune instrument seems defeating. I will be exchanging this in hopes that it's just a problem with this particular one, since the other keys sound good.
Also, this is not a xylophone (with wooden keys), it's a glockenspiel (with metal keys). When the manufacturer says "wooden," they only mean the frame.

Fisher-Price Classic Xylophone Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)These are such fun, classic toys. My kids (almost 1 and 3 years) both love it! It has the added bonus of being on wheels for pulling all over the house. I only wish the cord were a bit longer. I understand the fear that kids are going to hurt themselves, but if it were even an inch or two longer it would be able to reach the farthest keys. As it stands, my daughter has to really tug at it and hold it awkwardly to reach the farthest key.

Plan Toy Oval Xylophone Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This xylophone is adorable but that's about all it has going for it. I received it in the mail today and decided to send it back within 2 minutes. The tones (and that is being generous) are just terrible. I couldn't play any recognizable tune with them at all. If you're child is into banging, try a drum or another xylophone. The Tap a Tune Xylophone by Little Tykes gets fairly good reviews and is less expensive. I wanted this one for my son because it has the look of a classic toy but that really doesn't matter if doesn't have proper tones.

Playtime Ideas:


Using the mallet to hit the bars will help develop fine motor skills and stimulate eye-hand coordination.
Each bar produces a different sound. Telling children to hit the bars by switching the colors, will help stimulate hearing and listening ability, develop recognition skills and teach about colors at the same time.
Hitting the bars with the mallet has a positive effect on children; it generates interest, develops concentration and also helps to release tension.

Little Tikes Tap A Tune Xylophone Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Our daughter has three xylophones (don't asky why) and this one has the poorest sound quality of the three (granted one is a nice wooden xylophone). The sound is very tingy and the notes do not sustain very long after impact. The hammer is very light and bends easily.
If you want a cheap xylophone for your child, I would recommend the "2-in-1 Crocodile Keys Musical Instrument" by Fisher Price. We have one of these and our daughter loves it.
