My Project

Three year olds learn best by listening to music. Music is a fun, interesting, and aspiring way to have students learn.

Little ones will love shaking out tons of fun rhythms with rainsticks, a Chinese percussion gong, a Mexican guiro, and Ghana rattles.

Children will love this ancient Chinese percussion instrument (the gong) and its unique, powerful sound! As one of the oldest Latin American instruments, the Mexican guiro has grown in popularity and will make an exciting addition to music time!

We will add percussion and rhythm to music time and sing-alongs with these colorful woven rattles! The Ghana rattles are made from dried gourds and grasses grown in the Ghana/Burkina Faso border region, and the small rocks inside produce a wide range of sounds.
