My husband bought himself this musical instrument and is making fruity sounds all over the house:
Amazon.com: Nuvo N100CLPK Clarineo Kit with Case and Accessories - White/Pink: Musical Instruments
I was scared at first when the "brake noise" sounds came out of it. But then he learned how to do the embouchure. And I am passing on my scraps of musical knowledge to him. It's fun, despite myself. An escape for moments. He researched a lot before buying this thing. It's funny-looking but good quality and < 1/10 the price of the cheapest real clarinet you could get.
