This is a flute made by the German company, "Coroy." Coroy is a company that focuses on early childhood music education and is also involved in welfare activities. Steiner They primarily make wooden lyres, flutes, and percussion instruments, with many of their products designed for simple enjoyment of sound. The instruments are more for children to play with casually rather than for formal concerts. I purchased this when my child was taking extra Steiner lessons, but it was hardly used and has been stored away. This flute is also simple and can be played by children around the age of three, allowing them to make sounds and have fun.
