Any recommendations for a guitar for a three year old? Something more sophisticated than a toddler toy but durable?

Our music class instructor suggested a ukulele for this age range. The size is great for 3 year old and they can get a lot of the mechanics of the guitar down. They also aren't as pricey as guitars, which is always a plus for this age range!
I think Hape sells a wooden ukulele. I have no experience with it (although it might go on my 3 yo's Christmas list) but I've had great experiences with their other toys and it seems like it would be pretty sturdy!

My nephew has the Hape one and it does not stay tuned. We got this one for my son just before he turned three: Kala MK-SS/GRN Makala Shark Soprano Ukulele (Green) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00FYX8QCW/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_S8N.ybQ3W9Q27
It's durable, holds a tune, and gets "played" every day.

My mom got DD a ukelele. It came with a shoulder strap and pegs pre-installed, along with a tuner, which is really convenient.
