Red face Toys Symphony

Hi, I'm Sylvia and new around here

Does someone know who composed the "Toys Symphony" (A fabulous piece recreating all the sound of toys of the time)? I've heard that Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart originally composed it, but then I read that his father Leopold did it. Furthermore, there is a "legend" saying that Handel wrote it. Can someone help me figure this out?

Haydn, I believe

And, It is definitely NOT Handel OR Mozart OR Leopold

Sorry for the rudeness of the above statement, I am just Tired of hearing those theories

Post Thankyou

Well Mahmood, thanyou for your answer.
Haydin?!? Of all the possible composers who probably wrote Toys symphony, he was never one. Actually, if I think about it, the symphony is in his style.
You're right, people should not just guess, making stupid theories (and confusing musicians like me).
Thanks,

I did some reading on Google and It sounds like it was written by Mozart father Leopold, So I guess it is a Mozart piece...
