Raimy 17in Kids Ukulele Guitar - 4 Strings Mini Guitar Children Musical Instruments Educational Toys with Picks for Toddler Kids Boys Girls Beginn...

This was actually worth the buy. Sturdy and made pretty well. My two boys are pretty rough on toys and this lasted a long while before one of them stepped on it and cracked the back. But they still play it! The pick comes attached by a string and I just left it on there and it held up nice as well. Would recommend.

We cut the pick off. 9-11 month old loves this. Jams with daddy, saves his guitar the crawling attention. Worth every penny. Got a crack in top of neck, still sounds okay. Safe for little hand yet. I will buy another if price remains good.

Its plastic, not wood. It also arrives out of tune and is not tuneable. If you want your child to have an encouraging first experience with ukulele/guitar, this probably wont work. If you just need a prop for them to destroy, this is a great choice.

Picked this up on a whim for a clever 2-year-old -- a teacher at daycare has a ukulele, and they had also seen some online videos of young kids singing and playing ukuleles. The kid's eyes lit up and we now have a ton of adorable photos and videos as they sing and strum. To clarify -- there is no real music coming from this instrument. The 2-year-old is successfully holding this uke, plucking streams, and strumming (and sometimes using the attached pick), but is not attempting to hold strings on frets, not attempting to play chords, and not attempting to play any correct/specific notes. That said, I've played a few simple melodies by holding one string to the frets and didn't have any problems with buzzing. I spent about a minute one day trying to actually tune it to itself, before the 2-year-old demanded it back. I was not successful, but it very well might have just been me. It seems feasibly tunable, although I have a hunch the pegs may not hold their position and would fall a little out of tune in a day or less. For what we needed -- a reasonably safe and sturdy "guitar" for a 2-year-old, this was absolutely perfect. I have been tempted to buy a stack of 10 of them to have on hand as easy gifts for other kids. The photos and videos we now have of the child with this uke are priceless, and favorites of all our family.

I bought this for my 1 year old grandson and he loves it. He likes the sound of the strings when he plays it. It's plastic so it's hard to break. The strings come undone every so often but easy to put back. It comes with a pic but should be taken off and not given to baby's or toddler for safety reasons.
