These sleigh bells are lots of fun and the perfect instrument for younger percussionists. They include 5 jingle bells which are attached securely to a fabric strap, mounted in a semicircle around the handle. The handle is made from smooth wood, which makes them comfortable to hold. The instrument is very easy to play, by simply holding the handle and shaking the hand bells to produce a bright jingling sound. This instrument is also ideal for learning the basics of rhythm for children as well as adults.
