Sound Waves Experiment: The String Phone

Montessori-Inspired Sounds and Music: The Musical Hand Bells

Vito is 32 months old.

Joking aside, this musical hand bells was a favourite of Vito. He loves using just to listen to the sound it makes and at times ringing the bells together to make “music”.
