Wooden Toy Trumpet - Sensory Wind Instrument for Kids

Most children know what to do with a trumpet before you have finished unwrapping it: lips on the mouthpiece, cheeks puffed, and a long toot across the room. With this toy trumpet, the fun lies in how it is played. A short puff gives a quick beep, a long steady breath holds the sound, and a series of little blows turns into a rhythm.

A marching game for the kids' trumpet

Start with a parade: you clap a beat, your child answers on the trumpet, then you swap roles. Ask for a loud call, then a whisper of a sound, and they soon feel how much air each one takes. Only one player can lead the parade at a time, so it is also a first lesson in waiting for your go.

Small enough for a coat pocket, this child's toy trumpet comes along to birthday songs, garden marches and the music basket at nursery.

Children's musical instruments: trumpet or flute?

The trumpet is the easiest wind instrument to start with: one breath, one sound, an instant result. Once your child enjoys blowing steadily, the wooden recorder flute adds finger holes and several notes to explore. Kept together in a basket on a low table, they sit well alongside the other Montessori educational toys your child can pick up and put back freely.
