PlayMore Design 8 Note Rainbow Chime Unit
Description
The PlayMore Design 8 Note Rainbow Chime Unit brings professional-quality music making to schools, playgrounds, childcare centers, hospitals, memory care facilities, and assisted living communities. Eight colorful aluminum chimes are tuned to the F Major Diatonic scale (F, G, A, Bb, C, D, E, F), delivering rich, resonant tones far superior to toy-grade instruments. The first seven chimes are color-coded to the colors of the rainbow - a built-in teaching tool for the classic "Roy G. Biv" mnemonic - while the eighth chime resolves the octave in red.
Built in the USA since 1995, the frame is constructed from up to 95% post-consumer recycled HDPE plastic lumber, making it waterproof, weather resistant, and virtually maintenance-free. Whether rolled into a classroom, positioned in an auditorium, or installed permanently outdoors, this instrument invites creative play and structured music education for all ages and ability levels.
Key Features
- 8-Note Diatonic Scale (F Major): Chimes tuned to F, G, A, Bb, C, D, E, F for professional sound quality and harmonically pleasing play.
- Rainbow Color Coding: Each of the first seven chimes follows the Roy G. Biv rainbow sequence - an intuitive visual learning tool for children.
- Powder-Coated Aluminum Chimes: Heavy-gauge aluminum construction with a durable powder coat finish for vibrant, lasting color.
- Recycled HDPE Frame: Up to 95% post-consumer recycled plastic lumber - waterproof, splinter-free, and UV resistant for indoor or outdoor use.
- Dual Play Method: Chimes can be struck by bumping against the striker bars or played with the included recycled plastic mallets.
- ADA and CPSI Compliant: Meets accessibility and playground safety standards, suitable for inclusive environments.
- Crafted in the USA Since 1995: Decades of proven quality and American craftsmanship behind every instrument.
- Promotes Therapeutic Benefits: Music play supports brain development, memory, coordination, dexterity, and social interaction.
- Easy to Clean and Maintain: All surfaces are designed for quick cleaning, ensuring years of hygienic, enjoyable use in high-traffic settings.
- Supports a Great Cause: A portion of proceeds supports DRUMSTRONG.org, funding cancer education, research, and survivorship programs.
Style Options & Which to Choose
- Free Standing: A self-supporting unit that can be placed anywhere on a flat surface indoors or outdoors. Ideal for playgrounds, patios, and open classroom spaces where permanent installation is not needed but mobility is not a priority either.
- On Casters: Equipped with wheels for easy repositioning between classrooms, auditoriums, therapy rooms, and outdoor spaces. The best choice for facilities that want maximum flexibility and shared use across multiple areas.
- In Ground: Designed for permanent outdoor installation anchored into the ground. Perfect for playground installations, sensory gardens, and outdoor music spaces where a fixed, vandal-resistant setup is desired.
- Free Standing / Green/Cedar With Drums: The Free Standing model bundled with drum components for an expanded percussion experience - great for schools and therapy programs wanting a more complete rhythm station in one unit.

FAQ
What age range is the Rainbow Chime Unit suitable for?
The Rainbow Chime Unit is designed for interactive play across all ages - from young children in early childhood settings to seniors in memory care and assisted living facilities. No musical experience is required, making it truly inclusive for any group.
Can this unit be used outdoors year-round?
Yes. The frame is made from waterproof, weather-resistant recycled HDPE plastic lumber, and the chimes are powder-coated heavy-gauge aluminum. This construction makes the unit suitable for permanent outdoor installation as well as covered indoor environments, and it holds up to rain, sun, and heavy use without deteriorating.
What is the difference between the On Casters and Free Standing versions?
The On Casters version includes wheels that allow you to easily roll the unit between rooms, hallways, or outdoor spaces - making it ideal for shared use across multiple classrooms or therapy areas. The Free Standing version has no wheels and is designed to stay in one place, offering a more stable footprint for a dedicated music space or outdoor setting.
Does the unit require assembly?
Some assembly is typically required upon delivery. We recommend contacting us at service@omahasportsandgames.com for specific assembly details for your selected style (Free Standing, On Casters, or In Ground), as the In Ground version in particular requires site preparation for permanent installation.
Is the Rainbow Chime Unit safe for unsupervised play?
Yes. The unit is ADA and CPSI (Consumer Product Safety Improvement) compliant, and all surfaces are hand and mallet friendly with no sharp edges. It is specifically designed to provide pro-quality tones for hours of safe, unsupervised creative play in playground and institutional settings.
