Billy Beats, with his smiling face, fun dance moves, and octave-range Mega Bloks piano keyboard, is like having a music-instructing playmate for your child. He's a feast for the eyes and ears, and a great way to get youngsters thinking and playing musically while having the time of their lives. Several modes provide ample opportunity for fun and learning. In Dance Along mode, choose from 8 classic kids' songs and watch Billy dance as each song plays. Learn to Play mode sounds only the first few notes before prompting your child to take over, lighting up the next key to be played when the prior one has been executed. Discover Music mode is for free play at the keyboard, which can be set to Classic Piano, Funky DJ, or Animal Sounds. Various-sized building blocks come stored in Billy's head, some of which, with stickers applied, help your child learn to read music through a color-coded system that maps to the keyboard. The blocks are designed to build on top of the keyboard or on Billy's head, making this an all-around building, listening, music-playing smorgasbord of hands-on fun.
