The 2019 Best of Baby Award Winner for Top 2+ Toy

And the Winner Is: Hape Mighty Mini Band

Kids are really starting to come into their own by the age of 2. Now is when they move away from only imitating adults and tap into their own imaginations. You’ll want to offer them toys that harness their creativity—and what better way than with music toys? The Mini Band features five different musical instruments all in one music machine to offer hours of entertainment, and entice kids to keep bopping along to the beat of their own drum.

What We Love

• Kids have a range of instruments to choose from all on one wooden board, including a drum with drumsticks, cymbal, xylophone, guiro and clapper
• Made with wood sourced from environmentally sustainable forests, the set is good for both your toddler and the environment.
• The instruments promote dexterity as tiny hands grasp, tap and clap along
• The set offers hours of play, but is still compact and easy to store
