You should get some musical instruments in the home if you don't already. This goes a long way!

We do have lots of musical books, where you push the spot on the page and usually an animal plays some instrument.

At the moment, we feel he is a little too small at 2 for his own instruments, as they will be destroyed in pretty short order. They're high on the list of things to obtain when he's just a little more careful with things.

Drums can take a fair amount of abuse (within reason - better than stringed instruments, for example)... though you may not enjoy his early jam sessions. I gave my son a set of tuned handbells when he was 2, they were a hit, and hard to break.
a small toy keyboard would be a good bet. They're nearly indestructible and cheap. definitely worth it.
