### 3/5 — Average at best

*2014-01-10*

My 3 year old likes it, but none of the instruments sound anything like the real thing. They all have that cheap 1990 Casio keyboard sound. But that being said, my 3 year doesn't notice.

### 4/5 — Annoying banjo but invaluable app

*2013-09-25*

My ten month old loved it, she's now 18 months and still loves it! I still can't stand that banjo though!

### 4/5 — My son has a blast!

*2012-10-31*

He was enjoying the Lite version enough for us to open up the rest and he loves the drums!

### 4/5 — Muito bom para crianças.

*2012-08-11, version 3.1*

Minha filhinha adorou.

### 3/5 — Add names to the instruments

*2012-08-04, version 1.0*

It would be great if instrument names were added so very young children could actually learn what they are called while playing with the app.

### 3/5 — good toy/game

*2012-07-23*

I bought this for the 4-octave xylophone because my 7 year old had an interest in picking out the melodies of some of his favorite songs, only to find out it only has one octave of keys that can be changed to each of 4 ranges at different times.  There were so may additional sounds and distractions that he just wanted to push buttons and listen to the cool effects.  It was not good at all for encouraging him to pick up some music skills, but then again I suppose it's really more of a toy for littler kids (toddlers).  Too many distractions for my purposes.  I download a free stripped-down piano app that was much more suitable to getting him to focus on finding melodies.

### 4/5 — Great

*2012-07-10*

Well I bought music sparkle lite for free but I didn't realise that LITE meant that u only get a taster of it so I got the full version and it's so realistic 💗😄😊😃☺🌻🌻🎈📱

### 5/5 — Perfect for little kids

*2012-06-04*

It is good for little kids to get exposure to different instruments when they don't have the access to try the authentic one. Very nice combination of different sound tracks.

### 5/5 — Cool App

*2012-05-29, version 1.0*

"This app is cool. Me and my dad think if we all had a phone we could make a band." Angelina 6

### 4/5 — Nice app

*2012-05-26*

I'd give 5 stars but I only get sound on iPad 1 with external speaker or headphones plugged in

### 5/5 — Love this!

*2012-05-19, version 1.0*

Totally love it for my daughter who is a toddler :)

### 1/5 — No sounds

*2025-10-23*

No sound at all. Cost me four bucks!

### 1/5 — No sound

*2019-07-23, version 4.3*

Purchased full version and sound doesn’t work

Sound works on all other apps on iPad

### 1/5 — No sound

*2017-06-18, version 3.9*

It's a music app with no sound - does not make sense

### 1/5 — Rip off

*2012-07-29*

Downloaded free version. My kid liked it enough so I bought the full version from app store. Apparently there are two full versions, one with three more instruments for the same price that you only get if you in app purchase, one with three less instruments if you purchase directly from app store.  I do not allow in app purchases so I bought the full version from the app store and got ripped off. My daughter wants to play the other instruments and I refuse to pay for the same game twice

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2012-06-24, version 1.0*

No music!!!!! What a waste!!!!!

### 1/5 — Disappointed no music!

*2012-06-17*

Paid for it, downloaded expecting to hear music when my grandson and I played, NO music, very very disappointed.  I do NOT recommend.

### 1/5 — Music sparkle

*2012-05-29, version 1.0*

No sound on my iPad. Works OK on iPod/iPhone. Paid for version not as fully functional as advertisement leads u to believe.

### 1/5 — Not Great

*2012-05-08*

Ripped off 2 times buying the "full version". There are no 24 keys on any of the instruments, only diatonic scales for glock and singers and sax. When it says piano keys, I think of accompanying  keys like chords, not simple sound loops. Not useful to a music teacher.

### 2/5 — Crashes Often

*2012-11-09*

Fun app for my little boy except when it crashes and closes,which happens a lot. It seems like when playing any instrument, if too many keys are presses or strummed at the same time, the app can't handle it. It would be ridiculous to strum a guitar by slowly touching one string at a time. The same thing happens with all the instruments. Not worth the money paid.

### 2/5 — Beware of old version

*2012-07-28*

I purchased this app for my grand children and when  we opened it on the iPad a prompt to download the newer version appeared. The cost of the new version was $2.99 the same as the old version that we had just purchased minutes before. The old version should have been removed to prevent this mistake. The app is just o.k. there are better music apps out there and at this price it's not worth the purchase price.
