Does the child blow in it to make the sound or are they only electric keys?

It makes a sound if you blow on it AND press the keys; it doesn't make any noise just by blowing into it.

I think they are all that way. If you want a xylophone for your child, I'd purchase a different product. But if the toy is used with the balls and the hammer, it doesn't really matter. It's a good toy, but it is definitely not a musical instrument.

If the child can press down, and if they aren't afraid of loud noises. I bought this for my 2 year old grandson and he is still playing with it at 4!

The pedals do move on their own when you are pushing it. The child can put their foot on the pedals and they will stop turning and make a ratcheting sound when their foot is against it. That way their feet don't get wrapped up in the pedals.

Hi- the keys are weighted and it feels and sounds like an upright. It plays wonderfully and there is no other key noise that we can hear. It's worked out great for our beginner player!

No it does not. You turn it on, it has sound. There is a low setting for the sound, but not a way to turn it off. Honestly, they get used to the sound and it doesn't bother them turning it on. I have 5 kids and they all have had one. My 7, almost 8 ur old still uses. Highly recommend it

No. It's keys are hand-activated and its reeds are breath-activated. Hope this helps.

They are buttons that beep when you press them. My daughter and son both love this set. They are age 2 and 7 respectively.

My daughter got one for Christmas and yes it does make kind of what I would describe as a robotic sound when it moves its arms. It is not real loud but you can definitely hear it. It doesn't seem to bother my daughter and I have gotten use to it.

if you hit the keys light, they are kind of quiet but one can still hear them. A lot depends on how heavy one hits them.

Electric; the kids love it; the only problem is that the words on some songs highlite after the fact so the kids are always a few words behind

The keys are sort of weighted, less than real piano, but more than a regular keyboard.The keys are touch sensitive.

No. It's a toy replica of a science fiction device that doesn't really exist. The kids love all the noises it makes.

hi,No it doesn't make any sound! But the child can actually ride it and it moves forward like a real horse... the mechanism is all mechanical ...so no batteries required! Great toy!

I believe it is after. When you pull the lever whatever animal the arrow lands on, that is the sound it will make. I believe the object is to teach the child the sound the animal makes. I think it only works after the lever is pulled. Hope this answers your question.

My 5-year old son discovered that you can simultaneously press two instrument keys at the same time, and get a combined sound. I am pretty sure that is a "bug" and not a feature. It works though.
