Where can I get this???




I have a problem trying to find some toys in Singapore. I see loads of FisherPrice items, but hardly any Little Tikes' ones in the departmental stores. I wonder why?

We have been trying to hunt around for this two-in-one piano-xyleophone for Isaac for some time now. The one by FisherPrice is made of plastic, has only seven notes (less than 1 full octave!!) and the sound that it yields doesn't have the quality of brilliance that we are looking for. We don't want stuff that are electronic that would waste battery and might spoil easily. so we are looking for those that are made of good quality metal or hardy wood that would last longer and have good sound quality. To date, it seems that the ones by Little Tikes would fulfill our needs. We've actually seen one at a friend's place, but he told us that he had purchased it in Australia! :(

Does anyone know where we could get them, in particularly the one shown below, i.e. large, easy-to-press keys produce a full octave of tones, in Singapore?? Its called "Little Tikes Rhythm Maker Piano" and is retailing at £14.99 at a UK mailorder website....
