I gave this to my nine grandson for his birthday. He already has the large snap circuit assembly kit and he immediately said I have all these pieces already. He assembled it in ten minutes and recorded for about two minutes then was done playing with it. His six year old sister did record for about eight minutes but that was it. Save your money if your child already has a large snap circuit kit.


My son has the original snap circuit unit. He bought this as an add-on. It is really educational and so fun. He can record any sound from his voice to our cats meow. He finds it really hilarious. When friends come over they want to make up new combinations too.
My son is 10 and I can see him playing with this for years!
BUY IT!

Melissa & Doug Deluxe Wooden Musical Instruments Sound Puzzle

Product Description

Wooden peg puzzles are taken to the next level with this interactive puzzle that plays eight different musical instruments. Place the instrument in the proper place and listen to the unique sound it makes. Besides being lots of fun for budding musicians, this puzzle also reinforces cause-and-effect matching skills.

My daughter put the guitar in her mouth and the puzzle just fell apart. I had to put the toy away until later. I'm bummed because now it's ruined. We never put batteries in so I'm not sure about the sound.


My kid loves this puzzle. I know the sounds arent very accurate and quite annoying if left out at night. But after every piece he dances or pretends to play whatever instrument it is! Its a lot of fun to do with him and he will often do the puzzle multiple times before moving on to another quieter puzzle.


First, the physical puzzle is fine. Just don't put the batteries in. Unless you want your child to learn to distinguish between bland, non-descript synth patches from a cheap Casio keyboard.

How hard could it have been to use an actual recording of the instrument for each piece? This company could easily use a public domain wave file, or better yet, ask some musicians or music educators to contribute a short melody. You wouldn't need access to an expensive recording studio, either. Today a cheap $300 handheld record would do the trick.






For a Melissa and Doug product, this one is disappointing. I would not recommend it to a friend. The sounds do not accurately represent the instruments and all it plays is a small part of Old MacDonald.


This is another failing sound puzzle by M&D. Their products are normally of good quality and this one like the farm animals is a disgrace. I am not trying to trash them, I just do not want you to be as upset as I was. All sounds were recorded using an organ of sorts and most sound nothing like the pictured instrument. The puzzle itself works out fine without batteries, just be aware that it is indeed a beginners' level puzzle (marked 2+). To their credit, M&D customer service were gracious and offered to send a non-sound playing replacement.
