5.0 out of 5 stars The Amazing, Invincible Little Drum February 20, 2010
Durability: 5.0 out of 5 stars    Educational: 5.0 out of 5 stars    Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
This is a lovely little drum, as pleasing to the eye as it is to the ear. It's something your kids can bang on all day without giving you a headache, because its sounds are melodic, pretty even. We own a First Act drum that while very authentically drum-like in its sound, makes you want to clap your hands over your ears once the kids really get going on it. Not this drum. The rubber-headed mallet, when struck against the drum produces about three different lovely tones. Its appeal to the kids is equal to that of us noise-weary adults. Which is why I won't hesitate to buy one for our kids when the opportunity arises.

That's right, I don't own it. My best friend does; she bought it for her son this Christmas. I felt compelled to write a review about it because of her story of how incredibly durable this drum is, especially since she almost didn't buy this drum after reading the top-rated negative review on Amazon.

On Christmas morning, packing up to go to the grandparents house, my best friend's husband (whoops) left the drum sitting atop her car. Predictably, when she pulled onto the highway she heard it skitter across the roof, and then a chorus of angry horns blaring as it almost caused a pile-up as cars braked and swerved to avoid it. Sadly the drum not only was dropped at a high rate of speed from the roof of her car, but it was also run over - as the tire track on the underside of the drum attests. There were parts of the drum that looked like a puppy had gotten a hold of them and chewed them to bits. This should have been the end of the story for this little drum, particularly if the aforementioned design flaw was inherent to the toy. However, the drum itself endured this unusual level of abuse beautifully.

5.0 out of 5 stars great drum, nice sound December 13, 2006
By EmmaJ
Amazon Verified Purchase
We finally bought this for our son after he played with it at friends' houses for over a year. I am not a fan of noisy toys, but this drum makes a couple of different soft tones when hit with the mallet. From what I have observed of my son and his friends, this toy is very sturdy, and is great as soon as they can sit up, but still remains a popular choice now they they are two.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great little drum November 25, 2005
We love this drum! It has a nice sound to it and is easy for little hands to grasp. We've had it for almost a year now and no problems with the design, perhaps the other reviewer got a bad one? Highly recommended for your little musician!

1.0 out of 5 stars Would be fantastic, if modified September 23, 2005
When you look at the design, you will see the center is more "cut out" than the rest. While this is necessary to allow for different sounds, this center piece of wood needs to be thicker. My 2 yr old Grandson broke that piece after playing with it for about an hour or so. {It was broken by being hit with the drumstick} The toy had to be thrown out. there was no repairing it as the break was sharp and dangerous.

While it does help the child create many different sound & again, all that is needed is to make that one piece of wood thicker. It is a good toy for musical education otherwise. But the "Otherwise" is a biggie! I'll be writing to the manufacturer about this as well.

3.0 out of 5 stars Nice drum for very little ones August 29, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase
Durability: 4.0 out of 5 stars    Educational: 3.0 out of 5 stars    Fun: 4.0 out of 5 stars   
I bought this drum for my ten-month-old daughter. The top of the drum is carved out to make, roughly, xylophone keys (not sure how else to describe them) -- little tabs of wood of different lengths that produce different tones. Much like the Plan Toys Xylophone, which we also have, it's made of solid, thick sturdy wood. This is good because I feel pretty safe giving it to her insofar as I don't think she can wreck it at her age. On the down side, this also makes it heavy -- I wouldn't like her to drop it on her toe. Another effect of the thickness of the wood is that the shorter piece don't really sound musical, they sound 'blunt' or 'flat' more like tapping on a wooden table.

Another minor problem is that there are three little rubber feet on the base (I think four would have been better). When the baby leans on the edge of the drum, it tips very easily. As I said, it's heavy and solid, so I stick pretty close to her when she's got it, so she doesn't flip it (or herself). If you want a very solid, nice-looking drum that sounds very mild and quiet, this would be a good choice for you. I was expecting something that sounded a bit more like a musical instrument.

5.0 out of 5 stars We love this drum! November 12, 2008
Durability: 5.0 out of 5 stars    Educational: 5.0 out of 5 stars    Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
We have had this drum for about a year and it's still a favorite of my two girls, ages 3 and 1 1/2. I like it too because it has a nice sound. The only sound I don't like is the arguing over who gets to play with it!

This toy is lovely. The tones are beautiful (not abrasive) and are the C, B, and A notes that you would play "Mary Had a Little Lamb." I'm not sure what was wrong with the drum from one of the other reviews, because ours seems to be very durable. I have a baby less than a year old and he rolls it, throws it, and beats it to high Heaven with that little rubber mallet...not a problem yet! He just loves it!

5.0 out of 5 stars not just another toy drum September 26, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase
Durability: 5.0 out of 5 stars    Educational: 5.0 out of 5 stars    Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
this drum is tympanic, there are multiple tones to it. it is extremely durable, and I have only been impressed and pleased with this fine toy maker. I own other toys by this company and they are all equally well made. the drum itself is safe for even younger than recommended age, with supervision of course. My 6 mo. old laughs as he hits it with the rubber mallet it came with.
