Frequently Asked Questions
What materials are used in the Coconut Shell Maraca?
The maraca is made from a polished coconut shell filled with beads, mounted on a turned wooden handle, and hand-painted with a colourful sun design.

You will receive one maraca. We recommend purchasing two for playing them as a pair.
How do I care for my Coconut Shell Maraca?
Simply wipe it with a damp cloth after use and avoid excessive moisture or direct sunlight to prevent damage.
Are the designs the same on each maraca?
Each maraca is unique due to natural variations in coconut shell size and shape. Hand-painted designs may also vary slightly, but the sunny face dot pattern remains consistent.
