The Lehoo Castle Musical Instruments set is the value pick, a 13-key wooden xylophone bundled with a full percussion kit for around forty dollars. The LOLYSIC 15 Tone Wooden Xylophone is the budget pick and the cheapest here at about twenty-five dollars, a tidy standalone glockenspiel for a child who just wants to play.
