Haba: Guiro Crocodile

16,90

The güiro is a traditional percussion instrument built around a simple idea: run a stick across a textured surface and sound appears almost instantly.

HABA’s crocodile version brings that same principle to the smallest hands. No buttons, no batteries, just a wooden stick, a row of ridges and an interesting rattling sound the moment they meet. The cheerful crocodile shape and large opening make it comfortable to hold independently and turn an instrument that is usually played with two coordinated movements into something young children can explore on their own.

For young children, this is often where music begins: not with songs, but with discovering that movement creates sound. Slow, fast, soft or energetic, children quickly notice that changing how they move changes what they hear.

Along the way, they naturally practise fine motor skills, coordination and an early sense of rhythm, one of the most direct connections between action and sound that a child can experience.

    About HABA

    Founded in 1938 as a factory for finely finished wooden toys, HABA has spent more than eight decades perfecting the art of making things children love to play with. The company started life being operated out of the Habermaass family home in Bad Rodach, Bavaria, and that same town remains the heart of the brand today. HABA is best known for its high-quality wooden toys, from ball tracks and building blocks to baby rattles and board games, with more than 500 new products developed every year. Their wooden toys are crafted from sustainably sourced beech, birch, maple, and basswood, all PEFC certified, and finished with safe, non-toxic materials. All products are rigorously tested to both US and European safety standards. At the core of everything HABA makes is a belief that play is how children make sense of the world — and that the toys we put in their hands matter.
