Schylling is an American toy company founded in 1975 by Jack Schylling and based in Massachusetts on Boston's North Shore. The company began by importing classic mechanical toys and grew into a manufacturer and steward of nostalgic brands, with a catalog spanning tin toys, kaleidoscopes, classic novelties, and stewarded properties such as Big Wheel, Lava Lamp, Sea-Monkeys, View-Master, and the sensory line NeeDoh.

Within its product lineup, Schylling produces a range of beginner musical instruments aimed at children and early-music education. The music category includes wooden xylophones, kazoos, harmonicas, slide whistles, recorders, tambourines, maracas, and other percussion and wind toys, often sold under the "Make A Melody" line. These products are designed as introductory instruments rather than performance-grade gear, and are widely distributed through specialty toy retailers and major marketplaces.

Schylling operates as a family-run business with founder Jack Schylling overseeing creative direction alongside his brothers handling marketing and operations. The company is generally known in the toy industry for reissuing and curating classic, often retro-styled play products rather than for professional musical instrument manufacturing.

Schylling has 3 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Whistles, Accordions, and Harmonicas.
