Bells are good quality for the price.
I'll be using them with kids teaching music.
Trying to keep it interesting and showing different instruments and ways of making music.

My rating of Musical Hand Bells
Posted 12/11/2008 by Carolyn Spoerl

Rating: 

Your bells are used with children ranging from 4 to 8 followed by 9 to 12 year olds every week (bells are shaken with all their might) and they haven't broke yet. I'm impressed so far. Thanks

Ring those bells!
Posted 7/31/2008 by Mrs Cevik

Rating: 

These bells are lovely. My 5 year old loves them and I like the letter coding on the tips of each bell in addition to the color coding. My only complaint was that the sticker fell from on bell, but still good sound quality easy to play music right great bargain for the price.

Excellent Gift Idea
Posted 12/5/2007 by Nancy K.

Rating: 

This product was so much more than I expected. It was high quality, very durable for 2 young boys ages 2 and 4. They haven't put it down since receiving it a few days ago. The bells were very colorful and look very nice as well as sound great.

Great Bells

These bells are great! Not only do I enjoy playing with them, but my 6 month old likes them too! She can flail them around and they make a great noise!

Fun, But Mediocre Quality
Posted 3/30/2008

Rating: 

So far I have given my son 2 of the different bells. He does seem to enjoy them, and enjoy comparing the sounds. However, when I handed him one this morning, he immediately decided to bang it against something, and now the enamel is scratched up. Not just scratches, but nice little gashes. I didn't think they'd damage quite so easily. This is a defect in the appearance only, of course, but still, I had hoped for something a bit more rugged.

Nice tone, somewhat misleading display
Posted 3/26/2008

Rating: 

These are really nice bells with a lovely tone. I was slightly disappointed that the handles were plastic, as they appeared to be wood in the picture. I would also prefer that the notes be painted directly on the handles, instead of on stickers, because stickers are going to come off easily. My 4yo loves them, however, and they are a nice adjunct to piano lessons. The included song sheet is easy to read and follow along. I would buy these as a gift for children from 3-7yo.

Great Product

We gave our daughter these bells for her 4th birthday. She loves them! They are very good quality and sound beautiful. The bells come with some sheet music and we have been having fun trying to play the different songs. Very nice product!

Beautiful Rich Colors!

I bought two sets of these to give as Christmas gifts - one for my great-niece (3-yr-old) and one for my granddaughter (2-yr-old). I can't comment on their reactions yet, obviously, but I am excited to give these gifts -- their colors are just gorgeous! (I'm the kind of person who has always gotten excited opening a new box of 64 crayons!!) I wish they came in a sturdier package - the thin, clear poly box tends to open up if not held by the bottom, but that's a minor issue. I'm very pleased with my purchase!

He picked up a c bell and was looking inside at the ball. I don't know what happened but a second later the spring was tangled! (Note from Fat Brain Toys: The spring was sprung and thus ended the fun, until Fat Brain Toys solved the conundrum. Quickly involved, the lads problem solved, his bell ringing talent evolves.)

I am using the bells in a teaching environment. The students are ages 3 - 11. I expected the younger aged children to enjoy the bells but the older children really did as well. The tone of the bells are excellent. The are in perfect tune with our piano which get's tuned every 6 months. It's a great way to introduce music and harmony to children. The colors are so fun and vibrant as well. I am very pleased.

Bell Choir practice

I actually purchased these bells to have a "practice set" since I recently joined the bell choir at church as a novice, and need to practice at home. The church bells are not to be taken out of our practice hall. They work well and I really like the price.

hand bells - pros and cons
Posted 10/13/2009 by Jana R.

Rating: 

I purchased these as replacements. The bells sound good, and kids love to play them. Also, this brand is much less expensive than the other brand available.
However, these do not come in a reusable box (like the other brand does) - instead, it comes in a bendable plastic box that doesn't serve as a storage box once you take the bells out. I had to find another container to store them. The other drawback is the little stickers that show the letter of the notes (A-G). Some had come off before I even took the bells out of the plastic box, and others were loose. I had to cut small round pieces of tape to secure them back on top of the handles.

These are lovely musical bells in bright colors. they were a little bigger than I imagined, but the kids in my preschool love them.

Lots of fun!

Great product! I wish it came with a few color-coded cards of songs so I wouldn't have to make them for my daughter. She LOVES the bells!

I had seen these bells at a friend's house for years and had wanted them. I like the vintage look to them. I wished, however, they came in a cardboard box instead of the flimsy plastic case. I can't use the plastic case as a container to hold them. The bells are nice colors and the tone of them is pleasing.

The handbells are cute but a little difficult to make "ring." Should be good for an older toddler/child.

Hand bells

These bells are great. They have a wonderful tone, and the notes are clearly marked on each one. I love the rainbow of colors. The little song sheet that came with them is easy to read. I had never tried to play bells before, but I was actually able to play through a couple of the songs immediately. They would definitely be a good investment for anyone who wants to introduce a young child to reading the treble clef. I expect to get a lot of use out of these bells.

The musical are a fun way to introduce children to the joy of making music. They are well made with a clear tone. I would like to have received more songs with the set.

I loved the bells they are easy to use. My preschoolers and I are able to follow simple songs and make "beautiful music" together! I would love to find more music for the bells.

The Bells Are Ringing!
Posted 1/25/2008 by Sara S.

I bought this item for my daughter after a child development appt where they had a bell that she loved. She is completely facinated by these and thoroughly enjoying ringing, swinging, and playing with these. The colors are great, the music that comes with them with a couple of songs is perfect. It covers a full octave and I like that it will help her learn notes.

Both my 4 year old and 6 year old enjoy using these handbells! The sound of each note is very pleasant. We line them up from middle C to high C and they are able to play the music (we purchased an additional song book). They especially enjoy playing a song together with Mom or Dad.

Posted 1/11/2008 by Joy M Dudgeon

Rating: 

The bells are just noisemakers without "music" for the children to follow and play. With one single sheet of paper music and badly color-coded at that, the interest in the bells was short-lived. I have 5 grandchildren 8,6,4,4,&2 and only the youngest showed no interest in the bells. But the older ones each played the 4 songs offered then carefully put the bells away back in their box! 1) Include a much larger selection of songs with the original purchase, (even if it costs a little more) and over the option to order more either from the vendor, or to print out online. 2) It is almost impossible to see the yellow against the white. Print the colors surrounded in a black outline or box-- the children commented on that!

The bells are great! Our daughter wanted some hand bells, just like the ones Mommy plays in Church. So these will be the big hit for this Christmas!
