NINO Percussion offers an outstanding collection of musical instruments designed specifically for children. In fact the only real difference between NINO instruments and those made for adults is their smaller size and bright colours. Far from being mere toys, they are the real deal, in tune and musical, and designed for safety, durability, attractiveness and playability. They meet or exceed the requirements of early childhood music education and are ideal for kindergarten and school programs, or for music therapy and other music-making activities. Made from Siam Oak and fashioned into a unique "hand" shape, the NINO Wood Hand Castanet is a fun way for kids to make rhythm. Solid wood construction assures good sound and safe play.
