5 Recommended Handbells

Sound House handles a wide range of products, including PA equipment, guitars, and lighting, but we also have a lot of products for young children!

Of the musical instruments for children, I recommend handbells!

I have fond memories of playing handbells with everyone at my kindergarten's Christmas recital♪

There are three main types of handbells: hand-held types that are played by holding them in the hands, tabletop types that are played while placed on a table, and combined types that can be played either way. It's also a good point that you can choose the type that suits their age!

Let's introduce the top 5 recommended products from among the many available.

Playtech / PHB500 Bells

The tree-like shape and colorful design are really cute, aren't they?
I mentioned earlier that there are three main types of handbell, but this PLAYTECH PHB500, which is an original Sound House brand, is a type that you won't find anywhere else!
Rather than tapping the bell with your hand while it's on the desk, you strike it with a stick to make it ring☆

If you can make a sound with the stick, your child will surely be overjoyed! This is a great gift for special occasions!

By the way…

We also have a set of PHB500 and either a kids' glockenspiel or wood block♪
Please take a look at these too.

Playtech / First Sound Play Set 1

Playtech / First Sound Play Set 2

Suzuki / MBD-25 Bell Harmony Handbell Desk Type

This is a desk-type! Although 8-note sets are the norm, this product is recommended for those who want to play in a wider range of notes! 25-sound set for MBD-8, MBD-5, and MBD-12! It contains derived notes (# and ♭), so you can enjoy playing in various keys as well as a wide range of notes.
If you forget which note is which color, there are stickers with the names of the notes written on them, so you can see at a glance!
With this many notes, you can play with a large group of people☆

Zenon / CBG-27 Handbell

The design is so bright and gorgeous! I'd like to use it on special days like music recitals at kindergartens and nursery schools♪ It's perfect for playing “Jingle Bells” during the Christmas season, both in terms of appearance and sound! The children's excitement will be unstoppable as they experience something out of the ordinary. Despite its appearance, it plays a charming, sparkling sound. This set also contains 27 notes, so the range of songs you can play is even wider!

Playtech / PHB100 Handbells and table-top bells

These are handbells that can be played with either a hand or on a table!

【Hand-held Type】

【Table-top Type】

Children aged 1-2 will probably use the tabletop type first, as their hands are still small and weak. When they get older and can grip and swing the handle, they can enjoy using the hand-held type! By choosing the type of drum to use according to the age of the child, you can use this important musical instrument for longer♪

Zenon / MB-C23 Handbell

Like the Playtech / PHB500 and Suzuki / MBD-25, each bell is color-coded, but the MB-C23 is distinctive in that the grip section is also color-coded.
The low range is pink and the high range is blue, so you can tell the octave at a glance. The design is very cute, with its more colorful look that makes children want to touch it!

Did you know that there are so many different types of handbells?
Christmas is coming soon♪ Why not start practicing now and perform at a Christmas party or something? If you find something you like, please consider it!
