Nino NINOSET3

A NINO Percussion Set Designed for Musical Awakening in Ensembles

The NINOSET3 aligns with the spirit of NINO Percussion sets: offering accessible, easy-to-handle instruments that are effective for creating collective play situations. The goal is clear: to enable small groups of children to play together quickly, alternating rhythmic roles, echo responses, and overlapping patterns. Each element of the set can be played separately, but it is in combination that the set reveals its full educational and musical value.

Who Is the NINOSET3 For, and In What Contexts Should It Be Used?

This set is intended for children and facilitators who want to implement structured rhythmic activities without complex equipment. It is perfectly suited for music awakening teachers, school interventionists, daycare centers, conservatories (introductory level), music schools, as well as leisure center animators.

Thanks to its "small ensemble" configuration, the NINOSET3 facilitates the implementation of concrete exercises: working on pulse, differentiating short and sustained sounds, building an ostinato, learning to listen to others, and starting/stopping together. It is also an excellent tool for inventing musical games where each child holds a distinct part, promoting attention and coordination.

Complementary Instruments to Build Rhythm Step by Step

A Palette of Sounds to Vary Roles Within the Group

The NINOSET3 brings together several families of hand percussion, allowing different functions to be assigned within the ensemble: a steady base, accents, responses, or texture play. This diversity helps children understand that rhythm is not only about "playing loud," but also about controlling dynamics, placement, and listening.

Solo or Ensemble Play: Natural Progression

Each instrument can be used alone for simple exercises (imitation, call-and-response, tempo variations), then combined with others to create a true small group. This progressive approach is ideal for developing confidence: the child can first secure their gesture, then learn to maintain their rhythmic place when another instrument comes in.

Included References for Immediate Setup

The set includes a jingle stick, a 6-inch ABS hand drum, a pair of small wooden claves, and two egg shakers. This combination is particularly useful in animation: instruments can be distributed quickly, two identical parts can be created (with the two shakers), and the group can be balanced to achieve a coherent ensemble within the first few minutes.
