The support frame has a clover-leaf configuration comprising a plurality of contiguous lobes each having a circularly opening. A plurality of character elements are mounted on each of the lobes and are rotatable thereabout. The character elements simulate the appearance of an animal figure and may include peripheral portions which are pivotally attached to the character element and are rotatable relative to one another. Each of the character elements includes a musical instrument and a movable member for simulating the playing of the musical instrument in response to gravitational forces acting upon the movable member during rotation of the support frame. The base assembly produces preprogrammed music during the simulated playing of the musical instruments.
