Stacking blocks and a musical instrument all in one -- what fun! The top of each of these 8 musical blocks is fitted with a metal bar that, when struck with the mallet provided, plays as an xylophone. Each block top also depicts a graphic of the note positioned on the staff, representing the full "C" scale. And, with the accompanying songbook, children can learn to play simple songs all by themselves.
One side of the block teaches young ones about the instruments that comprise an orchestra. Another side shows children practicing their instruments, while the fourth side teaches counting through rhymes and visuals by introducing the conductor on the smallest block, and then adding a child playing an instrument to each consecutive block until there are 7 children playing instruments under the conductor's lead. A medley of fun for everyone!
Largest block is 6"L x 6"W by 9 1/2"H. Made of heavy gauge laminated art board. Carrying case included.
