Dance Chimes

The Dance Chimes connect movement with experience of sounds. People of nearly all ages enjoy producing bright tones by hopping, jumping or even dancing.

Few play items produce so much smiling as this one. Both the spectators and listeners feel a moment of lightness, joy and harmony. The strong motivation produced by the Dance Chimes helps people to overcome physical inhibitions and to harmonise uncoordinated movements. However, even arbitrary hopping produces pleasant sounds which are pentatonic sequences rather than normal tones. Nine bronze tiles are arranged in a square with a sound element under each.  These are set into vibration by the energy of motion and thus producing ringing tones.

The Dance Chimes are also valuable as therapeutic equipment for people with a variety of functional limitations and they are a very attractive and demanding play offer for young children.

Fundamental characteristics:

• Unique and original
• High-quality, sturdy construction (even a car can be driven over it)
• Incentive for playing: surprising element on the ground, curiosity
• Movement: jumping, hopping, dancing

Suitable:

• For people form 4 years
• For leisure areas and pedestrian zones, public places, children´s institutions, institutions for children with special needs, school playgrounds, tourist centres

Note:

Due to the sound volume, the location of the equipment in residential areas has to be chosen carefully.
