The Melissa & Doug Beginner Band Set from Papyrus has everything your little one needs to get started in music. I love that all of the components are housed in the handy wooden crate and it is perfect for little hands to carry around. There is also enough pieces that several children can play together so they don’t have to be a one man band. Included in this band set is an xylophone, a harmonica, a kazoo, a jingle stick and two castanets. I do not know a child that does not love to hit on an xylophone, the expressions on their face is priceless when they hear the sounds they can make. The Castanets are very interesting and one of my favorites. Castanets consist of two wooden shells connected together with a string and when they are pressed together they make a clicking sound similar to two shells being bumped together and are great to establish a rhythm.
The Melissa & Doug Beginner Band Set is designed for children ages 3 and up and trust me the bigger kids are going to love this as well. The Band Set can be purchased directly from Papyrus and would make an awesome gift idea for that child on your list.
