A handclapping aid is provided that allows a wearer to produce a sound substantially equivalent to the sound produced by a bare handclap (audible applause) when the wearer is wearing gloves, mittens, or the like. The handclapping aid includes a first member adapted to be coupled to a wearer's hand and a second member adapted to be coupled to the wearer's other hand, the striking of the first and second member together with a force produces a total sound during a period of time representative to a total sound produced by striking two bare hands together with substantially the same force and measured over substantially the same period of time.
