About the Castanets

Castanets are a pair of small, shell-shaped pieces of wood held in the hand and clicked together. Dancers loop them over a thumb and snap them shut with their fingers to tap out a quick, sharp rhythm while they move. They are closely tied to Spanish music and flamenco dancing. Print this for a music lesson about instruments you play by hand and trace around the rounded shells.

  • Castanets are clicked together in the hand to make a sharp tapping beat.
  • They are strongly linked with Spanish music and dance.
  • Ancient Greece and Rome had a similar instrument called the crotalum.
