Parents Bee Bop Band Review

My daughter got this item for her first birthday.  We really thought she would love it, since she was into music and loves to make noise.  Sadly, she's not crazy about the instruments.  She has another xylophone that she loves, but the cord on this one is too short and she gets frustrated.  She likes to watch the beads in the bumble bee go back and forth.  She also loves the drum sticks - but she doesn't use them on the drum.  She likes to bang them on the dryer or the floor.  I will warn you - they are the perfect size for her to shove in her mouth and tells us they are "wallapops" - be careful.  The other instruments are just lost on her.  She has tried a time or two to stand on the drum, which is not sturdy enough for her weight!  Overall, it is a great concept, but the fact that the instruments are also animals just seems to confuse my daughter and she isn't able to play with the item as intended.  Save your money.
