What kind and brand of instruments are you using in your groups with children of this developmental level?
I work with kids in this developmental level when I do music therapy at the children’s museum in Rochester called “SPARK”. I use basic beat egg shakers because they are easy for the children to grasp and play.
I use instruments that are sturdy, colorful, can be cleaned well and often- withstand an on-going sanitizing regimen. I like to use Remo brand due to the high quality of sound and characteristics i mentioned above.

Using instruments that are easy to use and grasp. Pleasurable sound.
Easily sanitized instruments. Children at this age are still exploring with their mouths – so using instruments that are safe for the under 3 crowd is best.
I love using Remo drums (gathering drums, lollipop drums, sound shapes, etc.) – they are brightly designed and have a great resonant sound.
