About the Maracas

Maracas are hollow rattles on handles, usually played as a pair, one in each hand. Inside each one are tiny beads or seeds that clatter against the shell when you shake it, making a crisp rhythm. They are a lively part of Caribbean and Latin American music. Use this in a rhythm lesson and trace up the handle to the round top.

Maracas are usually played in pairs, one held in each hand.
