Large potentiometer

Hi,

Apologies if this is not the correct section to post in, if so please let me know and I'll post elsewhere.

I am making a project targeted towards children, which uses various sensors to control sound. One of the sensors I'm using is a potentiometer, however the ones I have are very small and will be far too fiddly for young children to control. I was wondering if anyone has advice on where to purchase larger potentiometers from or suggestions of how I could modify the ones I have already so they are more like a dial that a child could turn with their hand, rather than fingers.

Thanks for any help!

additional info if you need it: I am using an Arduino Uno and a 10k potentiometer from oomlout.co.uk at the moment.

You just need a standard panel potentiometer with a large knob.

...or maybe a slide potentiometer is more suitable than a rotary one.
