What are good musical instruments for babies?
user
What I know about babies is that most are born with the innate ability to hear, and some parents give their children instruments to help them develop that skill.  I know that piano keys are a very popular option for infants, but I haven’t noticed any particular advantages for that instrument compared to others.

What kind of instruments?
user
Keyboards, drums, flutes, hand percussion.

Flutes? That seems kind of hard.

Perhaps not as hard as piano keys, but they are fragile, and it takes quite a bit of time to develop the technique for playing them.

I'm just interested in my baby being able to make noise and go along to the beat.
