A sturdy, radio-like box; five colorful, sensor-controlled blocks; and one of several memory cartridges are included in the Music Blocks Mozart Set. Together, they create a unique learning product for infants and toddlers that has earned several coveted toy awards. The objectives of this developmental toy are simple: to introduce babies to classical music, and to challenge them in identifying sounds and instruments. Before children can even identify the instruments represented by the blocks' symbols (woodwinds, violins, a xylophone, trumpets, human voices, and a percussion ensemble), they will be able to identify sounds and famous refrains by Mozart, such as "Night Music," which is included in this set. Each block activates a segment of the composition, and switching around the blocks creates a new song.

The quality of the sound is impressive. It's stereophonic, rather than synthetic, though it's all created digitally. And, with that said, it's loud. Even at its lowest setting, the sound projects into the next room quite clearly. Included in the box is Music and Your Child's Mind, an informative sourcebook for parents interested in exploring classical music with their developing children. --Diane Beall
