I bought this set of bells to use in my music therapy sessions several years ago, and continue to use them with almost every group that I work with--from small children to adults.

The set comes with a small booklet to start you off on some songs, and I found them to be tuned well.

They're durable too! Many a client has banged, thrown, or done worse to the bells, and I have not had to replace any. They're easy to clean, since it is all plastic/metal (no paper or delicate material).

Great product, I recommend others to use this as well!

These bright-colored bells are right in tune, and the little tune book has easy to play music for beginners. They are color-coded, and have both numbers and keys on the tops to guide you in your playing.

The bells are 3" wide, 5 1/2" tall. I initially posted this review in 2007. It's now January 2011, and the bells are still in excellent shape, ring true, and have held up incredibly well!

Great item!

I've had the desk bells for years. Kids love using them. I have wanted the hand bells and finally purchased them. The bells allow you to use them by #'s, letters of the notes, or by color. I will take a poster board and put the words of the song with the color of the bell above the word that the note cooresponds too. I have used them with children ages 3 to 11. They catch on almost immediately. The colors are fun and billiant. It is great for teaching harmony, too.
