Meet Rogue and the Musical Kids’ Toy She Inspired

Mel-O-Dee Balls are a fun and easy way to introduce children to music, at home and in the classroom.
by Cory Berger, Grover/Trophy Musical Products It was a typical day at work. We were in the conference room, brainstorming ideas for new products. Unfortunately, our session seemed to be going nowhere. Part of the problem was Rogue, our in-office pet dog who was running around to coax someone to play with her. While we tried to concentrate and discuss new concepts, Rogue and her toy squeaked away. That’s when lightning struck: what if that dog toy was tuned to a specific note? And what if we created a set of toys that a child could squeeze
to play an entire song? After some initial trial and error, the Mel-O-Dee Balls you see today were perfected. Each ball in the eight-piece set is accurately tuned, C to C. They’re also individually colored and note marked so that virtually anyone can learn to play them. When kids squeeze MelO-Dee Balls, it not only produces musical tones, the motion helps build strength and dexterity. Mel-O-Dee Balls come packaged in a colorful display box with a handle for easy carrying. It can be hung or placed on a shelf for easy display.
