Product Description
Put the various elements of a symphony in the hands of your child with this remarkable toy that teaches your child how sounds combine to form true polyphonic music! Press a button for the orchestra to play one of eight Mozart compositions. Now drop the instruments one by one (you choose!) until you hear just the flute, or the harp, or the violin playing its part of the piece. Now add the instruments back in – the piano, or the French horn, perhaps. <p> With the push of a button, your child can compose and arrange literally millions of musical masterpieces. Orchestral quality sound and flashing instrument buttons encourage your child's creative talents. Developed in conjunction with medical and educational professionals to promote learning from the earliest possible moments of childhood.

Parenting Tip:  Many gifted children don't seem to need as much sleep as non-gifted children.  They may take fewer naps and stop taking naps altogether before they are two years old!  Unless your child is acting cranky, don't feel that your child needs a nap just because you think children need to take naps.  Since your child may not take many naps, you want to be sure to have plenty of things around to keep him or her occupied!  Variety is the best answer!  Have toys around that will allow your child to be energetic (without getting into mischief!) and toys that will allow him or her to explore the world around him (or her), including the more artistic side.  Because gifted children tend to have wide and varied interests as well as potential in so many areas, the more you expose your child to, the better!
