LOOIKOOS Montessori Natural Wooden Musical Instruments Set for Toddlers Preschool Educational Percussion Toys with Storage Bag, Safe Early Learning Toys for Boys Girls (3+)

This collection of instruments is extremely high quality. I care for my 19-month niece full-time, and I shopped around for quite a while before finding the LOOKIKOOS set. I can honestly say that nothing else I came across provided such variety and quality for the price. These are REAL instruments, not "kid versions" like so many other sets. I purchased these when she was 15 months old and they show no signs of wear despite their frequent use and my niece's sometimes aggressive toddler play. They're also quite nice to look at and are a welcome change to the bright plastic toys that often take over the rooms in our home. I started her out with four of the instruments: the tambourine, hand drum, maraca, and hand bells. She was able to play each one almost immediately, and four months later, they remain staples in her music basket. I love that she can grab those for independent play without me worrying about her safety. She has a tendency to run around and start dancing with the instruments, so I keep the ones with mallets separate and take them out during our music time together. As she gets older, these too will be great for independent play. We recently had a backyard barbecue with older kids ages 4-12, and the instruments were a HUGE HIT! The 12-year-old was just as interested in playing them as the younger ones. I'm confident that this set will grow with my niece for many years to come. The chime bar, wooden block, and hand bells, for example, offer varied tones based on where/how they're played, so as she gets older, she'll be able to increase the complexity of her playing. Overall, I'm very happy with this set, and I'd recommend them to anyone considering purchasing instruments for their kids.

We bought these instruments for our 20-month-old son. I was very impressed with the quality of the instruments when they arrived. The wood feels sturdy and solid, and it is a nice change from all of the plastic instruments you see these days. Most of the instruments are good for a baby who just wants to shake something and make sounds. Some are a little advanced for his age, but this set will grow with him. I can foresee him learning to play these instruments in more and more sophisticated ways as he gets older. I would caution buyers that some of the instruments contain small parts that, if broken off, could be a choking hazard. That hasn't happened for us, but just something I'm extra cautious about. For now, at his age, we only let him play with the instruments when we are supervising him closely. In my opinion, this wouldn't be a good set for a really young baby to use unsupervised.

Great quality!!! Baby loves it!

Very well made and so much fun. My 3 year old granddaughter had a great time leading her musical parade for her birthday.

Ok get a few adults together, a few drinks, some great music and jam along, no musical talent needed! Guaranteed everyone will have fun! Wish they’d swap out one of the instruments for a cowbell, because we all know it needs more cowbell!! Sturdy and well- made. Love the natural wood - doesn’t make you feel like you are playing with kids toys.

Lots of instruments for the price! My granddaughter plays with all of the pieces and they have held up to her not-so-gentle use. I like that the pieces are not plastic. Some of the instruments are a bit small for older children, but the fit is perfect for little hands.

My grandchildren love these, especially the baby, although I never leave him alone with them because of the small parts. I keep them on a special shelf, and get them out when we need to have a "concert". They love taking turns shaking and tapping them to the music.

A+ quick delivery, item was as described

My boy likes it very much!
