Babys Musical Hands is an award-winning musical toy for babies and toddlers for the iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch.

As a game designer and developer, I love my iOS devices. But as a new father, I realized how much my son loves them too. I decided I could put my experience developing for iOS to use, and build an app for my son to play with. Babys Musical Hands was born!

Pros and cons of Baby's Musical Hands app for iPhone and iPad

Baby's Musical Hands app good for

Hi I had this app on my iPad one and out little boy liked it very much. But now with the upgrade to the new iPad 3 I got no sound any more :-( The Problem is due to the mute switch, Just switch it on and off and then sound is up again. And thanks to the good support
The instrument sounds are well chosen, and the fireworks that appear at your babys fingertips are fantastic. We have a 1 and a half year-old and he LOVES this app. Its so simple, theres nothing to "figure out", except that when you touch it, it does things. Very well done.
Now theres something just for my baby who points the moment she sees the iPad...
This is so much fun! my baby and toddler love it. well worth the money.
I know the developer from twitter. Hes good person and deserving of your support. More importantly, I thought the concept was sweet and simple in just the right way to appeal to me as a fellow new father. My 10 month old son loves it. Great work, with love from @McFunkypants
My daughters love this app ! So simple and so attractive with color, sound and animation. Great App !

Some bad moments

Paid original cost, then charged again less than 2 weeks later. Deleted app...
This simple app is perfect for the intended audience - very young children. My wife is a literacy outreach specialist for the library and is anti-"screen-time" for little kids but even she had to admit that this app is actually a good app for youngsters. Why? Because this app encourages imagination and creativity and has no commercial content or "tie in". This app is a pure musical instrument and software toy and your young child is very likely to enjoy it. Excellent job!
My baby loves the clapping game and when we "play percussion" along to music. A friend pointed me to this app and it was an instant hit. I particularly love that once in the app, the only way out is the iPad button making it difficult for baby to accidentally navigate away (as she often does with other kid-oriented apps). This was a very well spent 99 cents.
Ive got to add my voice to the rest of the reviews. This is pretty great. My 8-month-old is really excited about it. Lots of drool on the iPad just now.
I love this app it is fantastic. I think if the five notes were the pentatonic scale (like C D E G A) it would be even better. You can play a lot of actual songs with that scale and all of the notes sound good when mashed together. My 3 month old loves this app though!
This is the best! This app alone is one of my favorite things about my iPad. My 7mo old loooves it. We play forever together. Well worth it.
