DON'T GET IT! We were given the Jumbo Music Block and it is horrible. It does nothing to teach, the areas that "invite exploration" has resulted in nothing but frustration. Imagine a ball that you can't take to the other side of the room, or a book that you can't pick up. As for the music, it's one or two sentences that only play once. To get the song to play again you have to kick it. The "quiet" setting drowns out fire trucks driving on the street (sirens blaring!). The only part of it that our 18 month old likes is that it can be music on demand. She would be better off with a kid friendly cd or tape player.
Save the [money] and get something else.
This toy does not teach anything. There is no way that multiple kids or a kid and a parent could play with this toy together.
