Parents frequently ask me what kinds of instruments I would recommend for their young children to play at home. \u00a0Here’s my list, in time for the holidays!<\/p>\n

First, a disclaimer:<\/p>\n

I’ve chosen instruments that I hope will get years of play in your family<\/strong>, lasting well your child\u2019s toddler years. \u00a0So I am going to stray beyond just what would be officially certified \u201cchild safe\u201d<\/strong> for a child under two.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m assuming that we all have good judgment<\/strong> about what constitutes safe play for our child or baby. \u00a0My recommendations assume that anything that your child is using is in good condition, and that you are supervising to some extent.<\/p>\n

That said, I\u2019ve brought my same natural rattles to more than 100 music classes with young children in the past year, and I have used similar items with my own children since babyhood, and one has yet to break open!<\/p>\n

Whenever Possible, Choose Natural Materials<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Why natural materials? \u00a0For two reasons.<\/p>\n

First, instruments made from natural materials are more inviting to play<\/strong>. \u00a0They sound better, and they provide a richer experience for the senses. \u00a0Hold up a handmade, fair trade rattle from Africa next to a mass produced plastic rattle from a factory, and you\u2019ll see there is no comparison, both in terms of sound, and in terms of how it feels to hold the thing.<\/p>\n

Second, natural materials are easier on the earth. \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Handmade instruments needn\u2019t be expensive, either, especially if you consider your musical instrument collection to be something you\u2019re going to add to over time.<\/p>\n

My List<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Category 1: \u00a0Things that Shake<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Caxixi<\/h2>\n

A caxixi<\/strong> is a woven rattle used in West African and also Brazilian music. \u00a0It makes a beautiful, earthy rattling sound, and it\u2019s also a wonderful, appealing shape that your child will love to explore with hands and mouth. \u00a0Buy on Amazon.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Shaker Eggs<\/h2>\n

What I\u2019ve said about natural materials notwithstanding, it is worthwhile to have some shaker eggs<\/strong> on hand, and here I do buy plastic instruments. \u00a0They’re durable, \u00a0easy to play, and tactile inviting. \u00a0These ones sound best to me. \u00a0Buy on Amazon.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Ankle Bells<\/h2>\n

Little ones love ankle bells.<\/strong> \u00a0What’s not to love? \u00a0You can put them on all over your body and run around the room! \u00a0(My two year old loves to do this!) \u00a0Buy on Amazon<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Things to Strike<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Drum<\/h2>\n

Your entire family is sure to enjoy a great big gathering drum<\/strong> like this one. \u00a0The largest size sounds fantastic, and can be played by around 6 people. \u00a0However, it’s a little large for small living quarters!\u00a0 At my house, we use this smaller 16\u201d gathering drum, and we love it. \u00a0Buy on Amazon<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

If you want something even smaller,\u00a0Remo also makes a\u00a0smaller<\/strong> floor tom<\/strong>, which is very affordable at just $30. \u00a0Buy on Amazon.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Things that Click and Clack<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Rhythm Sticks<\/h2>\n

Rhythm sticks<\/strong>\u00a0are a lot of fun. \u00a0You can drum them on the floor, click them together, and even make a neat zipping sound by running the smooth one down the grooved one. \u00a0Babies also love to suck on the ends. \u00a0Buy at West Music.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Guiro Crow Sounder<\/h2>\n

Similar to rhythm sticks, but fun since you strike a resonant grooved piece with a mallet. \u00a0Buy at West Music.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nCastanets<\/h2>\n

These castanets<\/strong> also make a loud click –\u00a0clacking sound, all the more fun because they are shaped like a little mouth that opens and closes. \u00a0Try them out, and tango the night away!\u00a0Buy on Amazon.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Things That Zip<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Frog Guiro<\/h2>\n

This little guiro, shaped like a frog<\/strong>, is as appealing to the eyes as it is to the ears. \u00a0You make a sound with it by rubbing the striker over the frog\u2019s back. \u00a0It makes a zipping sound a little like a ribbit. \u00a0Buy on Amazon.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Cabasa<\/h2>\n

On a cabasa<\/strong>, you produce sound by sliding rings of beads over a metal surface. \u00a0It sounds like \u201cshhhh, shhhh, shhhhh.\u201d \u00a0\u00a0And it also feels really neat to play it. \u00a0Little ones love running their fingers over the beads. \u00a0Buy on Amazon.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Things that Chime<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Triangle<\/h2>\n

For children about two and up, I recommend a triangle<\/strong>, with its beautiful, angelic tinkle. \u00a0(The holder is removable, so I would wait to bring this to your child until she’s safe with small things.) \u00a0They also make wooden holders you can buy to replace the plastic one. \u00a0Buy on Amazon.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Finger Cymbals<\/h2>\n

For babies, who can not yet manage a triangle and striker, these finger cymbals<\/strong> offer another way to bring a bell-like sound to your music making. \u00a0These are another favorite for sucking on, too. \u00a0Buy on Amazon.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Glockenspiel<\/h2>\n

This pentatonic glockenspiel<\/strong> is gorgeous. \u00a0You’ll admire its\u00a0beautiful craftsmanship, and an exquisite tone. \u00a0It is on the pricey side, but to my mind worthwhile. \u00a0This is one your children will pass on to their children. \u00a0Buy on Amazon.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Alternatively, there are many less expensive glockenspiels and xylophones<\/strong> out there that will also give your child the satisfying experience of banging out their first melodies. \u00a0If you have one you love, I\u2019d love to hear about it!<\/p>\n

Things to Pluck and Strum<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Banjolele<\/h2>\n

A lot of people choose a toy guitar as their child\u2019s first stringed instrument. \u00a0As a guitar lover myself, I get it. \u00a0Guitars hold a special magic for children, probably because this is an instrument they have often seen played.<\/p>\n

If you want to get a guitar-like instrument<\/strong> for your child, this banjolele<\/strong> is\u00a0a great place to start. \u00a0I\u2019ve not played this in person, but my two year old is getting one for the holidays, so I\u2019ll report back after I try it! \u00a0Buy on Amazon.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Harp<\/h2>\n

That said, I think that\u00a0even better than a guitar for most young children is some type of harp<\/strong>. \u00a0Unlike guitars, harps don’t require fretting to vary the pitch, so your child will be able to make more interesting music right of the bat, without having to learn any skills up front.<\/p>\n

My children love their Hape Kinderharp<\/strong>. \u00a0This instrument would require supervision for a very young child, but most children can handle it on their own starting around age 3. \u00a0You can pluck<\/strong>, strum<\/strong>, or strike<\/strong>\u00a0the strings. \u00a0When you strike them with chopsticks or other light sticks, this instument sounds like a hammered dulcimer! \u00a0Cool! \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Buy on Amazon.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Lyre<\/h2>\n

Another very special (though expensive) option is a lyre<\/strong>. \u00a0Lyres have a sound unlike any other – very soothing and soft. \u00a0Best of all, this one is pentatonic<\/strong>, so everything you play sounds good.<\/p>\n

This is an heirloom quality instrument<\/strong>, and to my mind, totally worthwhile. \u00a0We use ours at night, with my five year old son playing while his little sister dresses for bed. \u00a0It is also our favorite instrument to make the music for our puppet shows, which we do with the children\u2019s stuffed animals, and some other little fabric puppets I\u2019ve made.<\/p>\n

This instrument is one of my go-tos for helping my children calm down<\/strong>, especially in the evening! \u00a0Buy at Palumba<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Well, that’s my\u00a0list!<\/p>\n

But please remember, your instrument collection is only worthwhile if it is getting played by you and your children!\u00a0 You could have a spice jar filled with rice, and if you play it a lot, that’s more valuable\u00a0than an expensive, hand carved rattle. \u00a0So keep looking for ways to bring a live\u00a0music making into your day, with whatever you’ve got on hand.<\/p>\n

Thanks for reading, and I wish you a beautiful holiday season.<\/p>\n

Warmly,<\/p>\n

I've chosen instruments that I hope will get years of play in your family<\/strong>, lasting well your child\u2019s toddler years. \u00a0So I am going to stray beyond just what would be officially certified \u201cchild safe\u201d<\/strong> for a child under two. \u00a0<\/p>

My List<\/p>

I\u2019m now going to share a few of my favorites from each of the categories above, along with a link for where you might purchase them.<\/p>

Things that Shake<\/p>

Children at Meadowlark Music Class always seem to love this one best - a caxixi!<\/p>

A caxixi is a woven rattle used in West African Music. \u00a0It makes a beautiful, earthy rattling sound, and it\u2019s also a wonderful, appealing shape that your child will love to explore with hands and mouth.<\/p>

https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Single-Seed-Woven-Caxixi-African\/dp\/B003ZJHW18\/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1510876906&sr=8-1&keywords=caxixi<\/p>

Eggs<\/p>

What I\u2019ve said about natural materials notwithstanding, it is worthwhile to have some shaker eggs on hand, and here I do buy plastic instruments. \u00a0They're durable, \u00a0easy to play, and tactile inviting. \u00a0These ones sound best to me:<\/p>

https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Nino-Percussion-NINOSET540-2-Plastic-Assorted\/dp\/B00BSWTK3C\/ref=sr_1_3?s=musical-instruments&ie=UTF8&qid=1510877148&sr=1-3&keywords=nino+egg+shakers&dpID=51DtIi%252BtUSL&preST=_SY300_QL70_&dpSrc=srch<\/p>

THINGS THAT SHAKE<\/p>

Ankle Bells<\/p>

More satisfying than a tambourine, because you can put them on all over your body and run around the room! \u00a0(Peregrine loves to do this!)<\/p>

https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/LLOP-Instrument-Percussion-Orchestra-Children\/dp\/B0771M7HH8\/ref=sr_1_2_sspa?ie=UTF8&qid=1511216683&sr=8-2-spons&keywords=ankle+bells&psc=1<\/p>

THINGS TO STRIKE<\/p>

Drum<\/p>

Your entire family is sure to enjoy a great big drum like this one. \u00a0At some Meadowlark locations, we play the largest size, but this is a little big for most homes. \u00a0At my house, we use this smaller 16\u201d one, and we love it.<\/p>

https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Remo-KD-5816-01-Kids-Percussion-Gathering\/dp\/B0002GFPXO\/ref=sr_1_1?s=musical-instruments&ie=UTF8&qid=1510877365&sr=1-1&keywords=remo+gathering+drum&dpID=51%252BTa-KvrBL&preST=_SY300_QL70_&dpSrc=srch<\/p>

For those of us living in very small quarters, consider this floor tom, which is also very affordable at just $30.<\/p>

https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Remo-KD-5080-01-Kids-Percussion-Floor\/dp\/B0002F7KUG\/ref=sr_1_3?s=musical-instruments&ie=UTF8&qid=1510877365&sr=1-3&keywords=remo+gathering+drum&dpID=51prmQpVrvL&preST=_SY300_QL70_&dpSrc=srch<\/p>

THINGS THAT CLICK AND CLACK<\/p>

Rhythm sticks make a great sound. \u00a0You can drum them on the floor, click them together, and even make a neat zipping sound by running the smooth one down the grooved one. \u00a0Babies also love to suck on the ends.<\/p>

Wood Block<\/p>

Similar to the rhythm sticks, but fun since you strike a resonant grooved piece with a mallet.<\/p>

http:\/\/www.westmusic.com\/p\/basic-beat-bbh07-guiro-crow-sounder-204130<\/p>


Castanets<\/p>

Here\u2019s another way to make a similar clacking sound, all the more fun because they are shaped like a little mouth that opens and closes!<\/p>

https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/MagiDeal-Castanet-Children-Percussion-Instrument\/dp\/B01EX1FAJ2\/ref=pd_rhf_se_s_cp_0_4?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B01EX1FAJ2&pd_rd_r=HFA4DM7R63N6YE9SR8CG&pd_rd_w=S5BQ8&pd_rd_wg=GCu47&psc=1&refRID=HFA4DM7R63N6YE9SR8CG<\/p>

Frog Guiro<\/p>

This little instrument, shaped like a frog, is as appealing to the eyes as it is to the ears. \u00a0You make a sound with it by rubbing the striker over the frog\u2019s back. \u00a0It makes a zipping sound a little like a ribbit.<\/p>

Cabasa<\/p>

On this instrument, you produce sound by sliding rings of beads over a metal surface. \u00a0It sounds like \u201cshhhh, shhhh, shhhhh.\u201d \u00a0\u00a0And it also feels really neat to play it. \u00a0Little ones love running their fingers over the beads.<\/p>

THINGS THAT CHIME<\/p>

No musical instrument collection is complete without the sounds of fairy bells!<\/p>

For children about two and up, I recommend a triangle, with its beautiful, angelic tinkle. \u00a0(The holder is removable, so I would wait to bring this to your child until she's safe with small things.)<\/p>

https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Rhythm-Band-Musical-Steel-Triangle\/dp\/B0002IL3G0\/ref=sr_1_15?s=musical-instruments&ie=UTF8&qid=1510877752&sr=1-15&keywords=triangle<\/p>

Finger cymbals<\/p>

For babies, who can not yet manage a triangle and striker, this is another way to bring in a bell like sound. \u00a0These are another favorite for sucking on, too.<\/p>

https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Hohner-Kids-Finger-Cymbals-Brass\/dp\/B000EEHB8G\/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1511216043&sr=8-1&keywords=finger+cymbals+for+kids&dpID=416QkAHaFEL&preST=_SX300_QL70_&dpSrc=srch<\/p>

Pentatonic glockenspiels are on the expensive side, but they are really lovely. \u00a0Both the sound and the craftsmanship are beautiful. \u00a0Look for ways to build its magical sound into your day with your young child - perhaps to announce story time, or time to put on PJs.<\/p>

https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Auris-Glockenspiel-Xylophone-Pentatonic-Straight\/dp\/B01GKGWCSU\/ref=sr_1_1?s=musical-instruments&ie=UTF8&qid=1510877669&sr=1-1&keywords=pentatonic+xylophone<\/p>

Alternatively, there are many less expensive glockenspiels and xylophones out there that will also give your child the satisfying experience of banging out their first melodies. \u00a0If you have one you love, I\u2019d love to hear about it!<\/p>


THINGS TO PLUCK.<\/p>

A lot of people choose a toy guitar as their child\u2019s first stringed instrument. \u00a0As a guitar lover myself, I get it. \u00a0Guitars hold a special magic for children, probably because this is an instrument they have often seen played. \u00a0If you want to get a guitar-like instrument for your child, this banjolele looks like a great place to start. \u00a0I\u2019ve not played this in person, but my two year old is getting one for the holidays, so I\u2019ll report back after I try it!<\/p>

https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/PlanToys-6436-Banjolele-Music-Set\/dp\/B01KM4ZQGQ\/ref=sr_1_1?s=musical-instruments&ie=UTF8&qid=1510879443&sr=8-1&keywords=banjolele+toy<\/p>

That said, I think that even better than a guitar for a small child is some type of harp, since harps don\u2019t have frets to bother with.<\/p>

My children love their Hape Kinderharp. \u00a0This instrument would require supervision for a very young child, because it\u2019s a little delicate. \u00a0My son has been playing it on his own since age three.<\/p>

You can pluck the strings, strum them, or strike them making a sound like a hammered dulcimer. \u00a0<\/p>

https:\/\/www.educationaltoysplanet.com\/kids-harp-musical-instrument.html?gclid=Cj0KCQiAi7XQBRDnARIsANeLIev52-fX_OS7ntJYR5PhnYkrMHD2xA1SnyKminyB5vE1bE7OxMeLVKYaAkA8EALw_wcB<\/p>

Another very special (though expensive) option is a lyre. \u00a0Lyres have a sound unlike any other - very soothing and soft. \u00a0Best of all, this one is pentatonic, so everything you play sounds good. \u00a0<\/p>

This is an heirloom quality instrument, and to my mind, totally worthwhile. \u00a0We use ours at night, with my five year old son playing while his little sister dresses for bed. \u00a0It is also our favorite instrument to make the music for our puppet shows, which we do with the children\u2019s stuffed animals, and some other little fabric puppets I\u2019ve made. \u00a0<\/p>

This instrument is one of my go-tos for helping my children calm down, especially in the evening!<\/p>

https:\/\/www.palumba.com\/spring-lyre.html<\/p>

Well, that\u2019s my list for now.<\/p>

Do you have any other favorite instruments for your young child? \u00a0If so, I\u2019d love to hear them!<\/p>

Wishing you a wonderful holiday season, and I hope to see you in person one of these days soon.<\/p>
