  1. Good Quality Fun
    These instruments are durable and of good quality. I don't worry about my kids banging on them as hard as they want. They make beautiful music. The kids have so much fun playing with them. They are real instruments, not plastic imitations that don't sound quite right. This was a purchase I...
  2. Not so durable Band in a Box
    This item was purchased for as a Christmas gift. Within the first day the head of the tamborine was destroyed by light to moderate tapping. Not too worried, figured not everything is toddler proofed. But six months later, with minimal use, one of the handles from the maracas came off, beans...

How can these conventional instruments be replaced?
Impromptu Performance #2

I am putting together a live band for the childrens service at my church and I wanted to have "wacky" instruments. For example a banjo instead of a guitar, an upright bass instead of a regular bass, etc.


Drums... different drums like talking drums, bongos etc.
Piano... dunno
horns, most brass instrument... get a hose pipe, put a trumpet mouthpiece in one end and a funnel in the other, and play like normal, changing the pitch with your lips.

What instrument is this music arrangement for and how many hands/players are needed?
Impromptu Performance at the Children's Museum

See http://www.raffinews.com/files/music_arr angements/childrens_favorites/canada.pdf . It's a children's song. I am a very beginner piano student and I could not figure out if this is playable on a piano as-is by 1 person. Some of the melody...


Haha, if you'd played accompaniment for anyone before you would know this! Well if you look at it, the bottom two lines of each line of score is the piano part. The line above that is the tune for the singers to sing, you see. If you're worried about missing something out, it

Kindermusik classes offer New Orleans children early musical experiences

During our beach vacation, my old college roommate suggested I try some quiet activities with Press to encourage him to be a little more gentle and calm. So, when the offer came to try a Kindermusik class last week, I thought, "Hey, why not?"

Poor Madeline Thibodeaux. As an instructor of Kindermusik classes at Loyola Prep, Thibodeaux has met lots of children. Judging from the worn look on her face after last Saturday's class, I am betting she's never met anyone quite like Press.

From the moment we entered the classroom, Press never intended to sit in the circle and take part in the music and movement activities through which Thibodeaux led a group of a half-dozen parents and toddlers. First, he wanted to attack a bunch of loose hula hoops. When those efforts failed, he managed to grab several instruments and head for the door. Mind you, the rest of the class was enjoying learning the words to a few new songs.

My very excitable, almost 2-year-old was drawn back in by a basket of balls, quickly retreating from the door only to step on a smaller child in an effort to get several of the balls. As parents in the group passed the balls on a scarf over their children's heads to create a sensory experience, Press ran around, ball in his mouth, with his scarf wrapped over his head.

Not too long ago, I was looking for a fun, creative and all-inclusive activity to do with the youngsters in my family. I decided we should start our own family band. And after assessing the talent pool, I purchased the Fair Trade Wooden Paintable Pond Animals Instuments for my band members to begin with. Thus, The Fair Trade Rock Group was born.

The Children’s Rhythm Bag is a musical instrument package which includes: a set of three different simple rhythm instruments; a music cd to play along with; and a musical ‘guide’. The instruments are a drum, a shaker and a set of claves. Like the Paintable Pond Animals, each of these instruments was also handmade and the artisans who crafted them were provided with fair wages. The claves are made in Java, Indonesia out of coconut trees. I was concerned about cutting down trees to create children’s toys, but to my delight I found the trees are cut down after their ability to produce coconuts has declined. When this occurs the growers cut the tree down and plants a new one in its place.
