Introducing the Percussion Plus Honestly Made mini brown frog guiro and scraper

This Percussion Plus guiro is a fun and unusual instrument that has been hand-carved to look just like a frog. Made in northern Thailand, using only traditional methods and materials, this responsibly sourced instrument creates a unique and rich tune.

This little frog is supplied with an ergonomic stick for easy scraping, and it’s played by simply running the scraper down the ridge of the back to make it croak. It’s entertaining design and quality sound makes it perfect for use in classrooms, music therapy groups, and other music education settings.

These frog guiro and scrapers are sourced using Fair trade principles. See below for more information about the Honestly Made range of musical instruments from Percussion Plus.

These items are musical instruments not toys and there may be small parts on or in some of them. Younger players should use them under supervision.

How are they made?

Firstly, the rough structure is carved out by hand before being carefully sanded down to form the final shape. It is then drilled and tested to ensure the desired ‘pock’ sound is produced when struck. After the frogs are sanded and drilled, they are dried in a large kiln.

Croak like a frog

To play, scrape the stick along the frog’s ‘spine’ for a distinctive croak sound. Vary speed and pressure for different and interesting sounds. You can also strike the frog on the top of its head for a full bodied, percussive ‘thock’ sound, great for adding accents to your playing.

Our sustainable packaging

We use as little packaging as possible for our Honestly Made products, but where it’s needed, we’ve chosen I’m Green renewable polythene – a carbon-neutral material that’s 95% renewable and fully recyclable. Some items may still arrive with our previous biodegradable packaging as we strive to use up existing materials, but whichever form it takes, it’s all part of our effort to reduce waste and supply sustainably.




Percussion Plus Honestly Made products are manufactured in independent family workshops that are too small to join Fair Trade groups or are located in countries that do not have such organisations. These suppliers and their subsidiaries all follow Fair trade principles which include:

  • Agreeing a fair price Use of recycled materials
  • Paying significant amounts upfront
