A music box can be the perfect tiny musical gift. They come in a variety of designs, shapes and sizes and can play a variety of tunes, from classical instrumental music to popular show tunes to music you listen to on the radio. Music boxes can range from simple to ornate and can also feature specific themes such as the traditional dancing ballerina music boxes or music boxes shaped as a particular musical instrument. They may also be geared toward specific occasions such as holidays, weddings, graduations and the birth of a baby.
Snow Globes

Snow globes are another type of musical gift that is usually associated with the Christmas holidays. A snow globe consists of a small, round globe that contains a particular scene, such as a Christmas or winter scene. The globe is filled with liquid and tiny snowflake-like particles, and when you shake a snow globe, it appears to be snowing inside the globe. These globes rest on a base that often contains a music box, allowing you to wind the music box to hear a melody play while the snow is falling.

Musical clocks are something to consider when looking for a small musical gift. There are many tiny wall clocks or table clocks that will chime a melody on the hour or even every quarter hour. There are also other types of musical clocks, such as cuckoo clocks or alarm clocks that will pay a particular melody to wake you up instead of a buzzing alarm.
Jewelry Boxes

Jewelry boxes are also a form of a musical gift as they often come with a wind-up mechanism that allows the box to play music in a variety of melodies. These types of boxes are designed for women and men alike and can come in many different sizes and shapes. Men can use them for items such as cuff links and watches, whereas women may use them for earrings, necklaces and bracelets.
