Cat Piano   (+4, -2)  [vote for, against]
Fake mice pop out of the keys in sequence "Whackamole" style, cat swats at it, hits the key, Voila! Ludwig Van Mittens.

Might work better with a laser dot that moves around the keys but I like the idea of mice popping out of a piano that the cat tries to swat. People could play it as well, maybe with a big rubber mallet.

We had hopes of this being just a larger version of the Mouse Organ <link>, but with much bigger, heavier hammers ...

[EOS], Thanks you - I'd quite forgotten how funny the Mouse Organ skit was (esp, the bit where he breaks free to continue his "playing")

Somewhat baked by T&J back in 1946 (OK, without the laser)
