Watching my 14 month old play I came to the realization that he seems to enjoy simpler toys as opposed to the complicated, battery operated, noisy electronic ones. I think he enjoys making things happen himself instead of pushing a button and having lights and music go off. Thus I began my search for more battery and button free toys to spark his imagination. I thought little musical instruments would be perfect. I didn't want to spend too much money on something since I'm never really sure what he's going to love.

That leads me to this little set. After reading the reviews, I was very intrigued. Upon receiving this set it seems to be very well made. The shape is easy to hold and play for a small child. I also don't seen any pieces that could easily break off, a plus with a kid who puts everything in his mouth. I also noticed on the box that it is made in Israel; for once something that's not from China. The noise makers are pleasant sounding, not too loud. Besides, I'd rather hear the tinkling of bells or jingling of a tambourine over the repetitive tunes that come out of half of the other toys he has.

Glad I bought these little guys! The toddler is enjoying them and even my four year old niece seemed to like them too.

I bought these for my 9 month old after using similar instruments at the library during story time. He loves them! They are really easy for him to hold and don't have any rough edges. They make a satisfying level of noise but don't overdo it. I think he likes the bells and the rattle shaker the best. There is also a tambourine-type sound shaker and another shaker with curved plastic pieces that bang together. That one doesn't make quite as much noise as the other ones so I think it's a little less satisfying to play with. But overall, they have great construction, no small pieces, and will last for years. My two year old also loves to play with them!

I bought these for my daughter when she was a toddler. She is now 4.5 and still uses them! They are sturdy and safe. We love to march around the house to music!

Honest reviews on Musical Toys HRP-6005 Mini Orchestra Shaker

I worked as the music teacher at a preschool for over a year. We had this collection of instruments in our older infant room (approximately 8 months to 14 months). The children all love them and play with them a lot. I love that they produce good sound, but not anything that's so loud that you want them to stop. Best of all, they are very durable. In preschools, toys don't typically last very long. These instruments were about 2 years old and still in perfect condition. I recommend these instruments to anyone as a way to introduce young children to music-making.

I've owned this for about 2 years, and these toys have been shaken, stepped on, kicked, beat against, etc. with no dents or anything...looks pretty much new and works like new. Great for toddlers, these are lightweight and not THAT noisy. My son still loves them :-)
