Toddla™ 6-in-1 Montessori Music Set
Toddla™ 6-in-1 Montessori Music Set
Wooden music set
Go on. Tap a key.
Nothing happened until you did something. That is the whole idea. Eight tuned notes, two mallets, and no button anywhere that plays a song on its own.
Tap the keys above to hear the real tuning.
What is in the box
Seven instruments, not six bits of filler
Most toddler music sets give you one decent piece and a handful of padding. Tap any instrument to see what it actually does.
It grows with them
The same set, three different toys
This is the rare category where the toy is not outgrown, it is re read. Pick an age to see what play looks like.
Copying a beat
Clap a rhythm and they will try to match it. That is early pattern recognition doing real work. Loud and soft become something they control on purpose rather than by accident, and this is where the tuned xylophone starts to earn its place over a cheaper one.
Making it up
Songs with invented lyrics, concerts you are required to attend, instruments assigned to whoever is in the room. The set stops being a toy and becomes a prop for whatever they are imagining that afternoon.
Playing together
Simple tunes picked out on the xylophone one note at a time, and siblings or friends handed a maraca each so there is a band. Turn taking and listening to someone else keep time are the skills doing the quiet work here.

What happens once it is in the house

My toddler loves to drum on everything, loves the piano, loves music. Believe me when I say he plays with this set every single day! The tambourine makes a great drum sound if you use the xylophone sticks, all very sturdy, and pretty good quality for what you are paying.

My toddler LOVES his instrument set! He plays with it every day and takes interest in all the pieces. The instruments and toys are beautifully painted, high quality, and visually bright and appealing. Even better, it all fits into a small backpack which makes it nice to stow away!

Before you buy
Straight answers
Yes. Eight notes across a full scale, so real songs are playable. Low priced sets skip the tuning step, which is why they sound like clatter no matter how carefully your child plays.
Because it contains small parts. The mallets, the striker and the maraca heads are all small enough to be a choking risk for a child who still mouths things, so the set is safety graded for 3 years and over. We are not going to fudge that number to sell more of them. If you are shopping for a younger child, our busy boards and busy books are graded for them.
It makes noise. That is what an instrument does. Two things make it liveable. The xylophone is tuned, so you hear notes rather than banging. And everything is solid wood rather than plastic or electronic, so the tone is warm and rounded instead of sharp. If you need something quiet for the car or a restaurant, this is not the right toy.
Everything packs into the storage bag it comes with, which is why parents keep it as one thing rather than seven. It goes back on the shelf in about ten seconds.
Usually yes, because the play changes as they grow. At 18 months it is banging. At three it is copying a rhythm you clap. At four it is inventing songs and making you sit through the concert.
Montessori inspired. Real wood, child sized, no batteries, no lights, and the child does the work. It is not certified by anyone and we are not going to pretend otherwise.
Wipe with a damp cloth. Do not soak it and do not put it in the dishwasher. Wood does not forgive either.
