MusicBlocks

Pros: Stimulates creativity and musical appreciation. Fantastic sound quality.
Cons: Expensive.

I guess I must have been living in a cave because the first I ever heard of Music Blocks was when I saw them on display at Costco this past October. All those awards from Parents Magazine, Oppenheim Toy Portfolio, and others just slipped by without me...

Pros: Classical music appreciation, cause & effect, very educational
Cons: My kids are bored with it

Maybe my kids are just weird, but this toy that everyone raves about just doesn’t interest them at all. My girlfriend bought MusicBlocks plus the cartridges for her daughters (ages 3 and 6) and said the whole family loved it. Everybody on epinions seemed...

Pros: Great sound quality, hands on learning, lots of options, additional cartridges available
Cons: Your kids will fight over this toy!

Music Blocks by Neurosmith is an interactive musical toy. This allows very young children the opportunity not only to hear classical music, but to play with it as well. We received this as a gift for my daughter's second birthday, and it has been an...

Pros: Toy for ALL ages, durable, educational
Cons: can loose parts easily, somewhat expensive

I purchased this toy this past holiday season for my son who was 18 months old. From the minute he opened up the box the bright colors attracted him. There are 5 blocks, red, blue, green, yellow and orange. Each block has different shapes on the...

Pros: very versatile, able to add on, educational
Cons: as with any toy with smaller parts, blacks could be lost

This is an absolute favorite of every child we have met in the 1-5 year age span. That is quite a large age span for a toy. I was worried about the quality of this toy since the first Neurosmith toy we purchased was the "Babbler" and the sound quality...

Pros: great sound, appeals to a wide age range, great learning tool
Cons: cost justification for some families

I originally purchased this toy for my 16 month twin daughters and their 26 month sister. What I didn't expect was that my three older boys (ages 6, 8, and 11 years) would want to play with this too.

First let me explain how Music Blocks...

Pros: Beautiful sounds and lots to learn.
Cons: Pricey but SO worth it.

On a shopping trip to Costco I forgot a toy for my 15 month old to play with. On this day (alas) I had only my keys. After picking them up off of the floor for the hundredth time I noticed this toy. I set it in front of him in the cart and it was love...

Pros: enhances creative play, classical music, educational, fun, hand eye coordination, memory
Cons: expensive

I am forever on a search for new educational toys for my three children, ages 4 down to 2 months. I stumbled across Neurosmith products on a website for educational toys. I first purchased the Babbler for my infant, and then later purchased the Little...

Pros: Beautiful music to captivate. Great for teaching other concepts too.
Cons: Price is rather high, but well worth it.

MusicBlocks is an amazing toy! My daughter received these MusicBlocks when she was 13-months-old (she is two and a half now... I am updating this review). Even though MusicBlocks are recommended for age 2 and up, my daughter (and now my 11-month-old...

Pros: brilliant concept and design
Cons: cost prevents every child from having one

My daughter and I received Neurosmith’s MusicBlocks as a gift from my daughter’s godparents. This is a wonderfully innovative musical toy curiosity and creativity in exploring musical forms. There are five colored music blocks that each can be placed...

Pros: Multifaceted High Quality Musical Learning Toy
Cons: At $70 it should include all 3 cartridges

I now know one gift my niece & nephew will be be getting this holiday season. While browsing in the Store of Knowledge (associated with Public Broadcasting) I came across a toy that was simply remarkable.

Even with it's simple design,...

Pros: Educational, fun, music
Cons: none I can think of except maybe a little pricey

Well, first let me admit that my children are very spoiled. They have tons of toys, but this is by far one of the best ones that they have. This toys basically has five different blocks which will play music. The Mozart cartridge comes with the toy....

Pros: GREAT Toy!
Cons: If you want a variety of music, you have to purchase additional cartridges/accessories

I'd looked at this toy several times in the past before finally purchasing it this Christmas for my 17 month old daughter. She LOVES music, so I figured it would be a hit!

I didn't know how right I would be! Not only does my 17 month old...

Pros: Interactive, educational, opens up the possibilities for music interest in toddlers
Cons: Somewhat $$, little heavy for young ones to carry

To say this toy is "fun" is not doing it justice, its also my husband's favorite thing to play with as well!! It takes a fun idea, blocks and mixes it in with music to create a new and very innovative toy for toddlers to preschoolers....

Pros: Allows for a great deal of creativity, teaches shapes, colors, true music sounds
Cons: A bit expensive, not as durable as it should be for children

A friend told me about the Neurosmith music blocks last year as I had never heard of them before. Since she and I are quite alike, I ordered them for my son for Christmas last year without even seeing them first, and was I glad that I did! He has loved...
