Product Information

Full details

The A-Star SEND Percussion Pack is designed for educators, therapists, and parents seeking to create inclusive, multi-sensory music experiences for children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). Its key benefit is fostering musical skills, motor coordination, and social interaction through a diverse range of tactile, visual, and auditory stimuli. A potential consideration is the variety of items, which may require time to organize and introduce to individual learners.

What types of sensory experiences does the pack offer?

The pack offers auditory (shakers, bells, chimes), visual (light-up maracas, ribbons, scarves), and tactile (pom poms, sensory balls, finger puppets) experiences.

Troubleshooting

Light-up maracas not illuminating

Check if the batteries are correctly inserted and charged. Replace batteries if necessary, following any specific instructions for the maracas.

Missing components

Carefully check the carry bag and packaging. If items are confirmed missing, contact the place of purchase for assistance.

Instruments produce poor sound quality

Ensure instruments are used as intended. For items like shakers, verify they are properly closed. For percussion items, ensure they are not damaged.

Carry bag zipper is difficult to use

Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth. A small amount of wax or graphite lubricant can sometimes help.
