What are some good options? I want something she can enjoy for a while. She absolutely LOVES music! I thought about a kid piano or something similar (she loves playing ours, but I'd like to keep it nice). Any rec?

Thanks!

little maracas http://www.discountschoolsupply.com/Product/ProductDetail.aspx?product=21982&es=18734220000W&utm_source=CSE&utm_medium=weblink&utm_campaign=froogle&cvsfa=408&cvsfe=2&cvsfhu=3231393832
Xylophones are fun, too!
I love all things musical...have fun!

We LOVE the Mozart Magic cube and it still gets used here at almost 3
(The xylophone also gets used, though we got rid of the animal one and got a more adult/walking toy sort)

Plan toys has a bunch of fun musical instruments that dd2 received for her first birthday. The concertina, frog tambourine, bee maracas, fish castanet, xylophone, and the Remo Lollipop Drum are favorites around here.

Around 1 year we got DD a Schoenhut piano, djembae drum (from Palumba.com), xylophone, recorder, harmonica, maracas, and a tambourine. All are played with almost daily!!

The Leap Frog music table has been a hit here since ds1's 1st birthday (he is 2.5 now!).

We also have the LeapFrog music table and DS loves it. And a rhythm band set from the Parents toy line sold at Target.
