Received my Maracas noon. They are sublime, very solid because the baby was slammed to the ground, many times. It may make them mouth without paint. All are small, the noise is light and discreet that have not irritating to the eardrums. I love, I am delighted with my purchase. Only small downside is the color that is random, but I still received blue maracas with small flowers, no matter after baby is in heaven.
