 wonderful first instrument for a child August 25, 2008

After taking my then 6-month old son to a 'Music Together' children's music class, I was inspired to purchase a few percussion instruments so that he could play along at home to our CDs. This is a professional-quality drum with a good sound, and not one of the el cheapo "toys" that you can pick up at a big box retailer. We've had it now for 3 months, and it has proven to be quite durable, and has stood up to repeated tossings from the high chair onto the floor, being crawled on top of, thrown around, etc. The only negative is that my son seemed to be rather enamored with chewing the rubberized surface on the end of the mallet. I was afraid that it might not be the healthiest thing for him to have, and removed it from his access. Unless you have an infant like myself, this would probably not be an issue.
I have already recommended this drum to another new mom, and her son is also having a blast with it. This is a great quality product, and well worth the price.

I bought this little drum for my 9 mo old for Yule to match his older (2yr old) brother's Remo Lollipop drum and he figured out how to use it right away. He loves copying his older brother and drumming something they could both do together. THe look of delight on his face when he hit that drum was priceless, at almost 2 now, he still plays it today.

I got this for my younger niece on her first birthday because I'd gotten the older one bongos for her first birthday and it was a hit. My older niece also kept wanting a turn with it. They love having a handle to carry it around too.
My son's favorite toy March 11, 2009

After noticing my son's tendency to ignore fancier, flashier toys in favor of just whacking on things, I thought a drum would be just the thing to keep him entertained. This is the real deal; a real wooden frame with a real leather skin stretched across it, that produces real drum sounds! Unlike the glut of cheap plastic toys that require batteries to make noise, this is a simple, straight forward drum that my son absolutely loves. It's quite a bit smaller than you'd think based on the picture, but that's a minor complaint at best.
I can't recommend this strongly enough, both as a great toy and a child's first musical instrument.
Great first drum! July 1, 2009

Good amount of "drum" noice, but not too loud! Mallet is big enough that I dont' worry about my daughter choking on it. Great product for a toddler!
