Skip Hop Explore & More Xylophone

My daughter just turned 1 & she loves this toy. The colors are nice & bright, caught her attention quickly. It keeps her busy for a while. The string attached is the perfect length. Love that there's round edges! Definitely safe for your little one.

I love it cause it made of a good quality plastic, strong and soft edges. So my baby won't get hurt . Designed well . This is first item I got from a skip hop , but definitely not last .

Just what I was looking for! My so. Is at the stage where he is smacking everything and very hands on, he loves hitting stuff and hitting his toys off the ground so I thought he would enjoy this! He's making music already!

Cord is way too short to use properly for my grandson.

My granddaughter loves this! She enjoys the sounds and being in control of the stick.

We just purchased this item for our 1 year old and she loves it! She likes taking turns playing notes with Mama and Dada.

So sometimes you buy things thinking man how long will this thing get played with well my little one plays with it half of the time and I'm glad my eldest finds use in it as well

I brought it for my Grandson, he loves music. I would definitely recommend this product

I bought this toy to hold a bday gift for my baby and it didn't take me long to learn the song from Inside out and I can't wait to teach him !!!! This is a fun themed toy and I'm so happy Carters has Ferguson Fox!!!

For my baby boy who loves music, the best Christmas present!

It's a Christmas present for my 8 month guy. I'm sure he'll love it. It's as expected.

Bought this for my grandbaby and also bought one for a friend's baby. Great quality, super cute and the little ones loved it!

Perfect for a one year old who loves making noise and carrying things with them!

I don't know who's more excited about playing it me or my son!!

I bought this a couple weeks ago and my daughter loves it, so happy we got her this ❤️

My 7 month old loves music! When I was looking for some instruments, this one caught my eye! Great quality, and he can drive it as well! In comparison to others, this is the best quality. Easy to clean, enjoyable, and just overall cute!

From the moment my son saw it he fell in love with it, he takes it everywhere, he plays it all the time, highly recommended product.

I bought this a few weeks ago. I love it. It's colorful and it's a fun toy for kids.

I bought this for my nephew since quarantine kept us apart for easter. He absolutely adores it. He drags it everywhere and enjoys making music on it too. Definitely a cute addition to any toddlers toy box.

In agreement with others about the short cord. I?m sure it?s a strangulation regulation, so I get it. But even if you could mount the cord on the top of the fox?s head instead of the bottom, it would make a huge difference in usability. Most of my keys resonate well?the only one that is muffled is the first red one. Overall though, I love it! It rolls really smoothly, and colors and size are great!!

I saw the suggested age use of this toy and thought, my granddaughter is smart enough to use this, let me buy it for her. We got it, and she liked the musical notes played on the xylophone, however, the stick is what makes this toy right for the suggested age of 12M. My granddaughter is still exploring toys by sticking them in her mouth. She decided to explore with this toy only to find her lunch on her lap a short moment after. Ahh, thought grandma, this is why this toy is for 12M babies and not my 6M granddaughter. No worries, this toy is being put on hold in her toy chest until she gets a little older.

My daughter is only 6 months, so she doesn't play with it at length, but she does enjoy hitting it and hearing us play with it! (Not to mention chewing on the mallet, haha!) I see her using this for years to come! It's very sturdy and well-made and the little fox is so much cuter than other xylophones out there.

It's really cute but the string is ridiculously short. Horrible design flaw. Did any of the creators try to use the toy before putting it into production?

It's like two toys in one, I love it. I know my son will have great fun with this toy once he is old enough.

I bought this for my daughter for her first birthday. It's an adorable xylophone and my daughters enjoy the sounds, but the string that keeps the mallet attached is soo short that it's awkward to play. Slight design flaw on an otherwise great toy!

The construction quality of this toy is very, very good.the only problem with this toy is that when you hit the keys they don't resonate at all.some resonate a little bit but most of the keys are stuck this seems to be the case with all of them not just one bad toy.it's probably an easy fix for the engineers but the fact that they let so many go on the market that's troubling.

I bought this for Christmas last year for my son (11 months old). He loved it! The only problem is the cord is way too short, which doesn't allow enough room for babies to bang on the xylophone. It was an easy fix- I just cut the cord off. He uses the mallet to make music and a lot of ruckus. I definitely recommend this toy. The colors are bold, it encourages a love of music and use of motor skills.

(Side note: if you pay attention to your children, you can prevent them from gagging on items they stuff in their mouths. My son has never choked or gagged on the mallet.)

My baby isn't quite big enough to play with this yet, but it is very cute. The string seems a little short though.

cute and fun toy. the string is a little short. the bars are not equally spaced and are not at the same height (only slightly off though). still it is a fun and colorful toy for baby.

Bought to my neice and she loved it.
She is playing it a lot. She loved the sounds.
The quality is huge.

The mallot on this toy can get lodged in your child's throat! My child was playing with this and put the mallot in her mouth for a good chew and it was stuck in her throat. Please make your mallot safer for children to use I almost lost my daughter from this toy.

Wonderful sound, bright, vibrant, beautiful colors, easy to grab mallet, it's awesome! My daughter just loves it! In hindsight, maybe I should have waited until she was sitting more reliably to give it to her, though. She gets so excited that she falls over, sometimes right on top of it!

We just received this as a gift and I can not say enough good things about it. The rope is the perfect length to reach all of the notes. Both of my little ones love to play this and we never lose the mallet. We had another xylophone from a large toy brand - but the mallet was a hammer and we constantly had an issue with booboos and many days we just couldn't find it. My son loves using this as a pull toy also - overall, extremely well made and we love this toy.

My son loved the fox from the first look, it is cute and colorful, plastic makes it light and durable, and it gives a good scale of sounds. The cord is indeed a joke, not clear that the designers were thinking, as a child cannot even reach all notes with it! Nevertheless, very easy to disconnect: just attach your own cord of a normal length. The foxy is maybe less presentable this way, but let producers save money on the ropes ;)

The product is adorable and the notes span the entite octave which is what i was looking for. Quality could be a pinch better, but overall, good deal.

I love this toy, my son has used it a lot, I agree with some of the reviews that the cord is very short, but my kid has managed to play with it, he doesn't walk yet so has not try to walked with it, but it will be an issue when he tries to pull it. (Will worry of that later on). Right know my son enjoys it a lot.

The toy is beautiful, has a size that I could not imagine .. much bigger than I imagined .. Bright colors .. I loved this fox.

So my little baby nugget used to bang whatever he found around. This xylophone is super adorable and he loves playing with it. I personally love how it is helping him develop his rhythm and musical skills.

I bought this as a gift (for a 1 year old child) and later found out that the cord was this short. First I couldn't believe it and thought that it must have been a default product, but unfortunately it wasn't. I am really disappointed in this product since you cannot even use the xylophone properly and it's difficult/impossible to walk with it. Even though the xylophone looks cute, I wouldn't recommend this product.

I agree with the other review that the cord is way too short. Another couple inches would be great! My daughter is happy with it, and that's what matters. She loves the Ferguson Fox line! I wish there were clothes as well.

Some of the keys get stuck and don't make noise when you hit them with the mallet... And like everyone else said, the cord is too short. I cut it off... Overpriced. I expected much better quality.

I know it is most likely a safety concern - but the cord is way to short. You can't play the instrument well. If the wand was mounted in the middle It would be better.....
can we make it an inch or two longer?

The cord is soooo short you can barely get to all the notes. It is cute and brightly colored but my kids lose interest quickly because you can't really play it. Apparently no kid or parent testing was done. If it wasn't a Christmas gift it may have an "unfortunate" accident that resulted in it being thrown away. Glad the mallet has a spot to store it, just make the cord a little longer please!

Love the toy. Sound is nice. Keys are pretty.
Biggest problem is the cord is so short I can't reach the last note. I play piano and I like to play simple tunes for my daughter. It's so hard to play with the length of the cord - you have to hold you arm at a weird angle. I'm going to detach the malet...

Our son seems to love playing with the xylophone toys at his daycare so we were looking for one to have at home. His playroom has a lot of the SkipHop woodland animal things in it already so this fox fit right in. It's cute and he loves to play with it!
