EDIT: Solved.

It’s a melody called “Playmates.”

This is a melody from a music box I remember as a child but I can’t find out what it’s called. I pieced together what I could remember using an online music box music maker program.

Do you recognize this melody?

Here is my best guess at music notation:

A#4-G4-G4-A4-G4-F4-A#4-D4

F4-G4-F4-F4-C5-A4

F4-G4-F4-F4-D5-A#4

A#4-A#4-A#4-A#4-G4

G4-A4-G4-F4-A#4-D4

F4-G4-F4-F4-C5-A4

F4-G4-A4-A#4

Forgive the crudity of the recording. This was made after I spent an hour or so piecing together what I could remember. I am not musically inclined.

All the sound sample websites failed to help me surprisingly. ****

    The theory thus far has been it’s some kind of polka but I’m not totally sure. Not being a professional musician means my examples lack the proper tempo to really be certain. Plus reducing any song down to a music box comb reduces it so much its hard to glean stylistic clues from it.
