Hi Moms~

I have the cds and generally really like the program. However, I would like to add some instruments to the repertoire, but the book emphasizes good quality, etc. However, no brands or websites are given...

Any ideas as to what a "good quality" toy instrument would be?

Thank you!

They have an Equipment Guide section in the family section of their website.

This was the guide I followed when buying instruments and they've held up reasonably well, particularly the boomwhackers- be warned little boys will consider them 'swords'. (musical sword fighting has been an interesting experience-my son has become fairly good at whacking on beat )

You guys, Michael's has all the best kid instruments right now! You get them in that $5 and under aisle. They're all made of wood and painted very colorful. They're $3 for each thing. They have tambourines, egg shakers, maracas, jingle bell stick things- all kinds of stuff!

Also, Pottery Barn Kids has some really cool stuff, but it can be pricey. However, I find great deals all the time at our Pottery Barn Kids Outlet, and I got a really cool set of wooden drum things for $4.

We've had a set of cheap maracas before that were smashed before Christmas day was over, so I'm into the higher quality stuff for sure, but I can't brake the bank either. Hope this was helpful.
