The Wooden Claves Pair is an ideal introductory percussion instrument for young learners, offering a simple yet engaging way to explore rhythm, timing, and group music-making. Measuring 18cm in length, these lightweight wooden sticks are easy for children to hold and play. When tapped together, the claves produce a clear, resonant tone that helps children learn to count the beat and stay in time with others. Suitable for children aged 4+ years, claves are a fantastic tool for developing hand-eye coordination, fine motor skills, and focused listening. They also promote creativity, self-expression, and group communication. Whether used in individual play or as part of a group rhythm activity, claves support attention control and musical awareness, helping children to recognise when to play and when to pause. This versatile instrument is perfect for early years music education, cultural exploration, or collaborative classroom performances.
