What do we call a "Spieluhr" in English?

You know those soft-toys that play music, usually a lullaby... what do we call those in english?

Robbie Williams?

Musical box / musical soft toy

music box is one option - like a jewellery box, but I guess you're after a baby one... sorry I'm having the same mental block :-)

mobile? musical mobile?

Even the dictionary only has music box

Yes, not a box, but something like this:

A Spieluhr...

Hmm, maybe there really isn't a word for it, which makes it a bugger to search for...

Google 'musical mobiles' - that does appear to be the magical phrase

I've just seen "soft musical mobile" as well

Jesus, I've got that pop goes the weasle tune running through my head now. Thanks.

I think you don't mean musical box though and I can't think there is a special name for a soft toy that plays music. I assume you mean one where you pull the cord and it plays?

Exactly Pas...

I'd just say Musical Soft Toy.

And the fact that the first Google results are from Winnie The Pooh makes it all the better

musical cot toy ?

Thanks everyone!

musical soft toy sounds good...!

String-pulling-music-playing-toy-thingy-ma-jingy?

Deeply irritating?

possibly a pull string toy (e.g. pull string Woody from the Toy Story)

they are called pull string musical crib toy

Why not simply... a toy clock?

Because it isn't a toy clock - it may be clockwork - although nowadays it doesn't have to be. But it is extremely unlikely that it has a clock face.
