Make your own instrument with this DIY kalimba
Perfect for a fun hands-on craft project, this kit includes everything you need to build your own thumb piano. It comes with a wooden base with a resonant sound box, steel tines, a tension bar, and the screws required to assemble this small African-inspired instrument. Two sizes are available, corresponding to a 10- or 17-tine kalimba. With this DIY (Do It Yourself) kalimba, beginner-friendly and suitable even for younger kids, you’re sure to get great results with ease.
Completely customise your thumb piano
The wooden body of this kalimba is deliberately left “raw” so you can personalise it however you like. Before assembling it, you can paint the instrument or add stickers to make it truly your own—an excellent way to spark creativity.
