This vibrant and eye-catching dragonfly is designed to produce beautiful bell sounds that inspire children to unleash their creativity while enjoying the outdoors. It features a high-pressure laminate (HPL) body and four transparent acrylic wings, each etched with a network pattern for a more realistic appearance.
This enchanting instrument can accommodate players of all ages and abilities, and it offers 13 aluminium bells tuned to a chromatic scale from G5 to G6, with the black bells denoting the flat and sharp notes. Soft, flexible mallets make it easier to produce gentle and soothing music.
The dragonfly can be mounted on a stainless-steel post or installed using fixings that can be retrofitted to other outdoor instruments, play equipment, fences, and walls. Spark discussions about the natural world and add a splash of liveliness to your gardens all year long!
This inclusive play equipment looks and sounds elegant, especially with a combination of other outdoor instruments, and it provides multi-generational fun. These musical dragonflies support SEND learning by helping to improve hand-eye coordination, listening skills, and motor skills in an interactive and engaging way. It’s also at a height that makes it accessible for young children and those who use a wheelchair, which is great for those that want to start or continue to enjoy the experience of creating music.
The Percussion Play dragonfly is built from durable, weather-proof materials that perform well in even the most challenging outdoor environments. The bodies are securely mounted to a stainless-steel frame, or come ready to be wall-mounted.

There are two ways to install this Percussion Play product:
The leg is attached to a base plate, which is then fixed into the ground using anchors. This provides a brilliant level of stability, whilst making it possible to move the product around with relative ease.
The leg is directly embedded into the ground, providing excellent, long-lasting stability. However, once placed, the instrument will be very hard to move - perfect for permanent installations.
