Woodstock Mini Chimalong

The Mini Chimalong from Woodstock Percussion is a smaller version of the Chimalong Jr, and comes with a full color spiral-bound songbook attached. Like its larger cousin, this little metallophone helps children learn to identify colors, numbers and musical notes. It is a great tool for inspiring creativity and musical appreciation.

Setting up the Mini Chimalong is quick and easy, just unfold and rest it on a flat surface like an easel. To play a melody from the songbook, simply match the colors below each note on the page with the color beneath the corresponding tube. Older children can use the same system with tube numbers.

The lyrics are printed on both sides of the easel so while one child plays the song everyone else can join in singing. Since the tubes may shift over time, users must occasionally center each tube in its foam holder to ensure the proper sound. Hitting the tube at its center point will give the best sound.

All in all, the Mini Chimalong is a super-fun musical instrument with a great sound that kids can take and play anywhere: in the car, at the beach or at home!

Multiple Intelligences

Our toy experts have indicated that the Mini Chimalong strengthens the following Intelligences:

Musical

Children with strong Musical intelligence have great sensitivity to the rhythm of sounds (e.g. pitch, timbre, composition). Students strong in this intelligence will enjoy listening to music and may ultimately work as singers, songwriters, composers, or even music teachers.
