Product Description
The Mozart Magic Cube is a true breakthrough in music education. This exciting learning toy teaches how sounds combine to form true polyphonic music, and is appropriate for all ages. Just press one of the musical sides and hear the instrument play on. Your child can compose and arrange millions of musical masterpieces. Measures approximately 6" x 6" x 6". Requires 3 "AA" alkaline batteries (not included).

Awards:

  • 2000 National Parenting Center Seal of Approval
  • 2000 Parents Choice Approved Award



Editorial Review
Music stimulates the brain and encourages early learning skills. This interactive cube lets children choose from any combination of five different instruments--harp, French horn, piano, flute, and violin--to collaborate on eight Mozart tunes. A solo flute might play an excerpt from "Ah! Vous Dirai-je, Maman (Twinkle, Twinkle)," or a French horn intone a theme from The Marriage of Figaro. Other choices include "Country Dance #5," "Come Sweet May," "Der Vogelfanger" (from The Magic Flute), "March in D," "Landler," and "Là Ci Darem la Mano" (from Don Giovanni). Press the "orchestra" button and hear all the instruments play together. As the songs play, each selected instrument button flashes to the beat. The sound is not orchestral quality, but you get a fair electronic approximation of each instrument. Operates on three AA batteries (not included). --Tami Horiuchi

5 out of 5 stars I like it, the baby likes it, it serves it's purpose!   October 1, 2008
Monica Main (Valencia, CA USA)
I have read through some of the ridiculous low-star reviews and can't believe how anal people are. This is a baby's toy for $20. It's not a minature version of the New York Symphony stuffed into a $600 Bose music player, like some people are expecting.

Since this is a child's toy, I think it's serves it's purpose well. The music is clear. The lights flash when the music plays. I think it's neat that you can add or subtract musical instruments during the song that's playing so your baby can hear what each individual instrument sounds like.

My daughter loves the toy. It keeps her occupied for long periods of time and she's learning the names of each instrument and how they each sound both together in an orchestra and individually.

The people who are expecting this to be something more than it is need to understand that the toy wasn't designed for their enjoyment. The toy was designed for children. And, in my opinion, it's an exceptional toy that will keep most children entertained which, in and of itself, is a blessing.



5 out of 5 stars The grandkids love it   September 30, 2008
Ghost Writer (Towson, MD USA)
We have three new grandsons, all about 6 months old and they love this toy. They are learning how to add one instrument to another to change the sound.


5 out of 5 stars Great toy   September 29, 2008
S. Kellen (Seattle, WA USA)
My daughter loves the Mozart cube. She has enjoyed playing with it from 12 months through today (18 months) and I can't imagine her interest waning any time soon.


5 out of 5 stars Musical and fun   September 16, 2008
Michelle R. Reitman (Hollywood, FL USA)
My one year old loved this toy and explored pushing all of the colors and sounds. She swayed with the music and loved looking at the lights.


5 out of 5 stars nice   September 9, 2008
Patience Canfield (WA)
Plays nice music that isnt to loud. Item is smaller than I expected, but that is not a bad thing as it makes it easier for little ones to hold/carry.
