Sure, you can hand your child an electronic device with a metronome app on it. But the original device makes learning music so much more fun and hands-on, without involving any electronics. Choose from one of five colors sure to appeal to kids. The pink, mint green, black and wooden finish options come in a sturdy plastic. Or you can choose the clear metronome that reveals all the inner workings of the machine to view.

Each beat measurement corresponds to a musical term.

Once your metronome arrives, set the tempo with the pendulum block attached to the metal stick. The metronome will keep the beat so kids can practice at different speeds. Pick a tempo ranging from 40 to 200 beats per minute. Each speed comes marked with the correct musical term so kids can learn to match their pace to the written music.

This metronome comes with a clear plastic cover and winds up.

Or just let them explore rhythm with this interactive tool. They can try clapping, counting, and more. A clear plastic cover keeps the metronome free of dust when not in use. Tuck the metal stick into the groove to make the metronome stop on command. And it all works without batteries or any other power source, thanks to the magic of winding the mechanism. At just over eight inches (20 cm) high with a base of about four inches (11 cm), this item takes up minimal space. 

Add a metronome to your child’s musical repertoire and enjoy the colorful decor it brings to your home and your kids’ musical explorations.
