No batteries required!

Xylophone

Making music is so much fun with the Classic Xylophone from Fisher-Price. Tapping on the bright keys creates different tones to stimulate musical creativity. The mallet is attached with a cord and the instrument is on wheels, so little walkers can pull it along behind them.
