Anyone remember this from the movie "Big" with Tom Hanks? I've wanted one for years, so I thought about getting one for my little DS, who I think would love it...Amazon has one for $35. However, I read the review and it's made of PVC from China, so I'm thinking I'd better not. Anyone know of any others out there? We have a Schoenhut, which he loves, but I thought this one would be fun (we're a bunch of musicians, and can never have too many musical instruments).

We receieved the FAO "Big" piano last year as a gift. No idea what it is made from, sorry. I'm pretty sure it was more than $35, too. Unfortunately it only holds my kids interest for a few minutes every couple of months! Sounds like maybe your DS would enjoy it more though!

MIL just gave one to DS for his birthday. She gave him some other things too, so I doubt it was very expensive. It is an interlocking foam puzzle mat/ piano mat. I think she ordered it from the Metropolitan Museum of Art or MoMA, but I can't remember which and I am not finding it on their web sites. I'll come back with a link if I can find one.

ETA: Here is the one DS receved from MIL. I am not sure why I couldn't find it yesterday!
