Introducing the Halilit guiro shaker

The Halilit guiro shaker is a colourful instrument inspired by the traditional Puerto Rican wooden guiro that can be shaken as well as scraped. It provides a great opportunity for musical discovery and sensory play, so you can make as much bright, vibrant sound as your heart desires! This guiro is supplied with a scraper, which neatly fits inside the top of the guiro for convenient storage.

These musical toys are designed especially for babies and toddlers, with music at the core focus. Made from high quality materials, they create endless possibilities to improve children’s skills, creativity, and abilities. This range is a safe and educational choice for the developing early childhood years.

Perfect for early years development

Shakers are often used in harmony with other instruments, so players must be able to demonstrate timed precision when shaking them, which is why they are a great way to develop a child’s rhythm, coordination, and listening skills. They can also be played as part of a group music session, giving young children a fun way to get involved and helping them to improve their social skills too. Plus, this shaker doubles up as a scraper, which allows your child to experiment with different sound combinations for more advanced musical techniques.

How to play

Run the scraper along the sides of the guiro to create a fun, energetic sound, each side creating a slightly different tone due to the size of the ridges of the design. By shaking the guiro, you can get an even greater range of sounds from this instrument, leading to more and more fun!
