Happy Thanksgiving! Wishing everyone a great day from everyone at Percussion Play.

Today we're marking #WorldChildrensDay by highlighting the importance of music-making in the great outdoors.

Being exposed to music from a young age, particularly within a school or nursery setting, has been proven to encourage teamwork, self-confidence, empathy, improved communication skills and intellectual curiosity, and individuals who have had the opportunity to develop these skills and behaviors in early life therefore often turn out to be happier, healthier and higher-achieving adults than those who do not. For these reasons it would seem fair to say that encouraging music education programs in schools and providing young children with access to musical instruments would have far-reaching benefits not just for the individual but for society as a whole. Read our White Paper in stories. 🎶

Come and have a play on our range of outdoor musical instruments at the #naeyc booth #1535 🎶

Look out for our team @holidayparkshow who will be showcasing a range of our outdoor musical instruments. 🎉🎶

Thinking about creating your own musical garden for your community project in 2024? Look no further than our case study page which showcases projects including our outdoor musical instruments.

We send our outdoor musical instruments all over the world from our workshop here in Hampshire. We work with schools, charities, care homes, farm parks, museums, open gardens, hospitals, churches and libraries to name just a few. Be inspired- link in stories. 🎶

Woodlarks Camp Site Trust unveils Wendy's Music Garden for all abilities to enjoy. Back in 1930, Dorothea Strover, who lived in Surrey, England, pioneered an innovative way to support people with disabilities at a time when little was done to encourage them to contribute to society.

Dorothy realized that people with disabilities didn’t have the opportunities non-disabled people had. Many people were housed in hospitals and removed from becoming active members of society. People with disabilities also had little opportunity to make an income, socialize, go on holiday, and, for instance, experience the fun of outdoor camping. Along with her husband Martyn, Dorothea first founded Woodlarks Camp Site Trust for camping holidays and later a residential home, The Woodlarks Centre. Here, people could live and make crafts to sell while enjoying the surrounding countryside, and the campers could enjoy the thrill of sleeping under canvas. The Woodlarks Centre operates independently from the campsite, which is entirely volunteer-run except for one paid staff member.

The campsite opened its doors over 90 years ago to accommodate scouts and girl guides who brought campers with disabilities to stay. Today, it covers an area of 13 acres and is open from May to October to groups from schools and organizations who wish to enjoy the available facilities.

On offer today at the campsite is the ability to make music in the ‘Green Valley,’ located just below the main buildings, to the south of the site. This secluded and tranquil valley is where Percussion Play’s outdoor musical instruments have been installed to the delight of campers, visitors, and volunteers. Read more in our stories. 🎶

We’re hopping into Halloween with our new Harmony Hop! Happy Halloween! 🎃🎶

We have a new outdoor musical instrument on the block- our Tropical Cyclone; a miniature version of our Cyclone.

Its colorful rainbow design and smaller size make it ideal for use in early childhood settings. Turning the wheel sets the ball bearings in motion, creating a realistic rain sound. Players can adjust the intensity of the sound by spinning the wheel harder or softer, promoting gross motor skills and teaching the concept of cause and effect. Whether it's a gentle drizzle, a heavy shower, or a full-blown downpour, the Tropical Cyclone allows for a range of rain sounds to be explored.

Check it out in our stories. 🎶🎉
