A TOYDIRECTORY member since 2003, the Woodstock Music Collection® focuses on making the very best sounding instruments available to help kids of all ages discover their inner creativity. We believe making music shouldn’t be just for “professionals”, it should be fun and easy for everyone! We continue to grow our collection, focusing on exciting instruments that encourage and engage children in the creative act of making music. These include the award-winning Chimalong®, Woodstock Folk Guitar™ and Woodstock Kid’s Accordion™. In addition, The Woodstock Music Collection includes a number of products that are approved for use by all children, even infants. These “0+” age graded products are the Woodstock Gripper Shaker™, Woodstock Double Egg Shaker™ and Woodstock Large Egg Shakers™.


Chimalong®
Woodstock Folk Guitar™
Tuned to a C Major scale, the Chimalong is an 8-note metallophone that can be played by number, color or notes. The youngest children will use the included 15-song songbook to play by color; older children can play by number. As they progress, they'll learn to read the music and play by note. Additional songs are available on the Woodstock Chimes website (www.chimes.com). Designed for children, this precision-tuned instrument is fun for the whole family! Packaged in a 4-color window box.

Recommended for its educational value by many professional musicians, including John Sebastian, Marilyn Horne, André Watts, Peter Schickele and the late Jim Henson.

Comes with 2 mallets, 15-song songbook and an extra #7 tube, which changes the B (for key of C) to B flat (for key of G), giving greater musical flexibility.
