I teach dance/creative movement to primary level children. I purchased this set to replace my old, worn out rhythm instruments. The basket is beautiful and the instruments are wonderful and sound so pleasing and authentic. The quality of this product exceeded my expectations. The children and I are extremely delighted!!!
Bring the world to your kids!
