Editorial Reviews:

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.

Customer Rating:
Summary: disappointed
Comment: 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.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Do not buy if you value your child's musical education!
Comment: 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.

Summary: Please take away the sound....
Comment: Without batteries, this is a great toy, but that's not what we paid for. They are all the same song and, except for the drum, don't sound realistic. Not only that, if all the pieces aren't in place then just the turning on of a light sets the sound off.
Take my advise. Either by one that doesn't make noise or take out the batteries.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Sounds are not accurate and really quite annoying
Comment: I am hesitant to give this toy a bad review because I absolutely LOVE Melissa and SOug puzzles and my 2 year old just can't get enough of them. However, this one is just plain annoying. All the instruments play Old MacDonald and they are all done electronically and unfortunately do not sound very much like the instrument they represent. I am a music tecaher and I was overjoyed when I saw this puzzle to help teach my son the sounds of different instruments but it really doesn't accomplish that. Plus it's very loud (well they all are) and my husband and I are about to take the batteries out. AFTER I ordered my friend said she had the same puzzle and found it also to be the most annoying that she hides it from her toddler.

Summary: Cool puzzle, annoying late at night
Comment: My daughter loves this puzzle, she plays with it constantly, only problem is , it goes off randomly at night, for no reason, the only way to get it to stop is to take out the batteries. A on and off button would bne GREAT!!!! Having to unscrew the door to get the batteries out at 1am, is a tad annoying!!!
