Percussion Plus Honestly Made large coco shaker

Introducing the Percussion Plus Honestly Made large coco shaker

The Percussion Plus Honestly Made coco shaker is made from a large calabash, which is a gourd that grows from the calabash trees in Ghana.

The gourd is dried out and hollowed, then it’s filled with small beads, which bounce around inside of the shaker, creating that famous rattling sound.

Each instrument is hand made using traditional materials and methods. See below for more information about the Honestly Made range of instruments from Percussion Plus.

These items are musical instruments not toys and there may be small parts on or in some of them. Younger players should use them under supervision.

The ideal instrument for future musicians

This hand-crafted shaker has a cord handle attached to it, making it easy to pick up and shake. It’s the perfect first instrument for young children, as it’s easy to play and encourages rhythmic moving that’ll help them develop a variety of different skills, such as building self-esteem, promoting creativity, boosting cognitive skills and teaching teamwork when playing as part of a group.

Our sustainable packaging

A key principle of Honestly Made is sustainability, and we’ve modified our packaging of these items accordingly by adopting fully recyclable and biodegradable glassine paper bags.

Naturally, we don’t want to waste our pre-existing packaging material, meaning you might still receive some of these products in classic, non-glassine packaging. If so, rest assured that your order has contributed to our collective waste management mission.
