Traditionally, Chinese verse stories were recited to the beat of clappers made from pieces of metal, wood or bamboo. These storytellers were typically beggars who went from shop to shop making up verses. The clappers beat was used in theatre shows as well as to teach school children rhymes and verse. Master the deceptively simple bamboo castanets and recite classic verses. You will never look at Mandarin the same way again! This set of Kuai Ban comes in a set of two, one for each hand, and is made of bamboo. A great fun for all ages to play with, especially Chinese teachers can teach students Chinese and rhymes with this fun Kuai Ban!
