\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Aldi were selling one octave sets of coloured handbells for $15 about a year ago, so I bought a set almost expecting them to be out of tune and very dodgy (ever seen the violins they have sold? EEK!!) but to my surprise, they weren’t bad at all for that price!\u00a0 I will quite happily purchase another set if they ever sell them again.<\/p>\n

What\u00a0to do with them?<\/p>\n

I now have three of the bells hovering around in my studio so that a student needs to do the ‘three in a row correct’ game, they can play it correctly once, and ring a bell.\u00a0 Play it correctly twice and they can ring two bells.\u00a0 Play it correctly three times and they can ring all three bells (separately of course, so they aren’t banging the bells together).<\/p>\n

Not only is this fun for the student, it allows them to hear a tonic triad (if you have the three bells set up that way).<\/p>\n
