Looking For a Family/Educator/Musician Gift Idea:

Are you starting to think of that perfect gift you can give your loved ones. Maybe you are looking for a great family gift or a gift for a teacher’s classroom? I have some ideas that may inspire some great gift ideas.

The chordal choir kalimbas are an awesome gift to give as a gift to a family or a teacher for their classroom. Each 5 tine kalimba in the chordal choir is tuned to a different key. Whether you choose to purchase a set of 3 or a set of 5, each kalimba may have their uniqueness to make for a beautiful learning experience as a group. I will try my best to give an example:

1 person can be the leader and start it off, then point to the other kalimba players to either repeat their rhythm or create their own sound and the player stops when the leader points to another kalimba player in their group. Make sure to take turns being the leader and maybe even switch and change kalimbas.

Another idea:

Make it a game: Play the kalimba in a certain pattern and try to play the same pattern as the leader, until everyone has had a turn. If one makes a mistake, leader gives them a chance to see it again and lets them try again. It is all about the learning experience and creating a creative musical environment.

Another music inspired idea:

Playing a song using five 5-tined kalimba creating a chordal choir and being able to play songs as they transition for one chord to the next. Maybe even playing along with other musicians.
