Boomwhackers are vibrant, colour coded tuned percussion tubes that make music accessible, engaging and physical. Used in classrooms, ensembles and music therapy settings around the world, they offer a hands on way to explore rhythm, melody and harmony with no prior musical experience required.

Each tube is precision tuned and produces a clear, resonant tone when struck on hands, surfaces or the body. Bright colours help learners quickly recognise pitch, encouraging confidence, creativity and joyful participation for all ages and abilities.

Classroom Packs for Group Music Making

Boomwhackers classroom packs are designed for whole class teaching, workshops and group activities. These value packed sets provide enough tubes for full participation, making it easy to introduce musical concepts through movement, collaboration and play.

Ideal for schools and SEND settings, classroom packs support inclusive music making while developing rhythm, coordination, listening skills and teamwork. Many packs include a mix of scales and ranges to support structured lessons as well as free exploration.

Core Sets and Musical Scales

The Boomwhackers range includes pentatonic, diatonic and chromatic sets, allowing learners to progress from simple, great sounding patterns to more advanced melodies and harmonies. Pentatonic sets are ideal for beginners, while diatonic sets introduce full scales and musical structure.

Chromatic sharps and flats extension sets expand musical possibilities further, making it possible to play in different keys and explore harmony with confidence.

Bass Boomwhackers and Range Expansion

Bass Boomwhackers extend the pitch range downward, adding depth, impact and richness to ensemble performances. These larger tubes are especially effective for group work, rhythmic foundations and full class arrangements.

Octavator tube caps offer a simple way to double the pitch of existing tubes, expanding range without adding extra instruments. Combined with extension sets, they allow Boomwhackers collections to grow alongside musical ability.

Built for Classrooms and Regular Use

Each Boomwhacker tube is made from durable, lightweight plastic designed to withstand frequent use. Smooth edges and easy handling make them suitable for children and adults alike, while reliable tuning ensures consistent musical results.

Learn Through Play

Boomwhackers encourage active learning through movement and sound. They support pitch recognition, rhythm skills and coordination while promoting group collaboration and ensemble playing. Whether used for structured lessons or creative exploration, they make music learning fun and accessible.

Grow Your Collection

Boomwhackers sets can be combined and expanded to suit any learning environment. From individual scale sets to full classroom packs, bass extensions and accessories, the range offers a flexible system that grows from first musical steps into confident group performance.
