Toy Fair 2013: MEGA BLOKS' Dancing Piano has come to rock your preschooler...
Being The Rock Father, I'm big into toys that involve musical play. I might even go overboard at times (there's more than a few preschool "guitars" here at Rock Father HQ), but I just can't avoid it. With the American International Toy Fair going on in New York right now, there's a lot more musical toys being revealed, and a new spin comes courtesy of MEGA BLOKS and their FIRST BUILDERS line. Check out the BILLY BEATS DANCING PIANO below...
