The best baby toddler toy ever,
This was purchased as a gift for my 1 yr old and became the immediate favorite of both my daughter and her 3 yr old brother. This is the first game that they can both play together. It keeps them occupied for hours, and the music, while clearly electronic, closely mimics the sound of real instruments and is not at all irritating- so we don’t mind listening to it for hours. It is also exceptionally durable, having now been dropped, kicked, licked, and knocked out the car window. No cracks, no broken pieces, and still plays as well as it did the first day out of the box.

|Fun music with fun play.,
I am on my second child and this toy continues to be a favorite.
The cube has six buttons. It will play one of six Mozart tunes. One button switches between the tunes while the others turn on and off specific instruments (piano, violin, harp, french horn, flute).
The cube has rounded corners with durable rubber bumpers that make it both safe and durable. It is amazing how much abuse this toy can take.
My oldest received the toy when she was 13 months and now nearly three years later she is still playing with it as is her younger brother.
A little pricey, but very-well made. A toy that will last from one child to another.

|Beware: This is not the original toy!,
The MUNCHKIN Mozart Magic Cube is a poor-quality copy of the original EMBRYONICS Mozart Magic Cube.
My guess is that Munchkin bought out the rights to this toy from the original manufacturer, which went out of business, then “redesigned” it more cheaply. While keeping the overall shape and function the same, they changed the outside colors, and the inner workings as well.
My older son received an Embryonics version in 2004, and we all loved it dearly until its battery cover broke. My younger son received the Munchkin version as a replacement gift, and we have all been sorely disappointed. The sound quality is horrible–the Munchkin cube sounds squeaky, tinny, and ridiculous, especially compared to the Embryonics version (which wasn’t perfect, but much, much better).
You can still find the older Embryonics version online. It has all yellow sides, the buttons are printed with different colors, the edges and corners are all purple, and it has the name “Embryonics” printed above “Mozart Magic Cube.” I found used ones and a “new” one–it was in Munchkin packaging, but was the old version as described. Look closely for the name “Embryonics” on the cube.
Shame on Munchkin for cheaping out and ruining a great toy, then coasting along on the great reviews and reputation of the original (notice that most of the favorable reviews of this product are several years old–they are for the Embryonics version). If you can’t find an original, skip this one.
