Monkey Music.

Grover's Music Maker was originally called Monkey Music and featured a dancing monkey instead of Grover. Grover's Music Maker was an attempt by Atari to introduce children to the music through some well known (and some not so well known) children's tunes. Selecting one of the twenty letters (A -T), will cause Grover to start jumping around while some music is played in the background. The game was shown at the Winter 1983 Winter CES. A 1983 Atari Kid's Library press kit states this was to be available July 1983, but programmer Stephan Keith actually asked the Children's Television Workshop people to cancel the game, because he felt that it would not be successful due to the limits of the technology and that the game would not recoup the cost of producing the cartridges. There were also issues with the children they brought in to playtest the game having trouble using the Kid's Controller, which caused them to lose interest in the game after a short while.
