Kids
love the "clip-clop" sounds they can make with
these lightweight, hardwood blocks. They're
perfect for creating horse sound effects like
galloping and trotting. Hold the block in one hand and use the
other to strike it with the mallet.
Ages: 4+
Sand Blocks are wooden paddles covered with
long-lasting, fine-sounding sandpaper. Rub
and clack the paddles together to create a
variety of rhythmic patterns.
Ages: 3+ |

A guiro is a
traditional instrument from South and Central
America. Create sound by scraping the
corrugated surface up and down in long or short
strokes. A child can scrape along happily to his
or her favourite songs. The original guiros were made from a carved
gourd vegetable. The modern wood version shown
has a cute fish shape and bright painted
colours that will appeal to the inner beat of
every child.
Ages: 3+
