Stylophone Original Pocket Synthesizer
A pocket-sized electronic synthesizer played by sliding a stylus across a metal keyboard.

The Otamatone is an electronic musical toy from Japan's Maywa Denki studio, played by sliding your fingers along its stem to change pitch and squeezing its "cheeks" for vibrato. The listing describes it as sold globally and enjoyed across ages, with a compact size of about 10.6 in (27 cm) for portability. It runs on 3 AAA batteries, not included, and the listing frames it as easy to pick up for a first try and expressive enough for people with more musical experience.
It's an instrument that's genuinely funny to look at and play, and the sliding-pitch design means anyone can make a recognizable tune within a minute of picking it up. A reliable icebreaker of a gift.
