I used to love my rainbow xylophone, I would often use it to create fun songs, and generally make a lot of noise. So I really want to get my hands on one of this rainbow coffee table.

Made out of [wood](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/topographic-coffee-table), and designed to look like the rainbow xylophone from my childhood. And the best part, it not only looks like the [mini xylophone](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/snowie), but the rainbow coffee table actually works! You can play Mary Had a Little Lamb all day long now.
