Editorial Review

This red, white, and blue tin drum is perfect for the child who is just starting to actively wham on things. Little eyes will light up when they see this noisemaker come out of the wrapping. The wooden sticks are 6 inches long, smooth, and pretty tough. Clips hold the drum together with metal springs and also make it more resilient. A red strap makes this drum mobile, ensuring that the music will move with your future Buddy Rich. --Keith Simanton

3.0 out of 5 stars Nice drum, with one 'flaw', April 25, 2008

This is a great sized drum and the drum sticks are a nice size for small hands. It seems sturdy and is not too heavy for a child to wear using the strap. My one 'big' complaint about this drum is that there are three plastic balls within the drum that roll around and clank on the sides of the drum and we find them distracting. When my daughter is trying to keep rythem with music, the balls are just doing their own thing and there is no way to silence them. Drum would have been perfect for us without the balls! I've tried to figure out how to take the drum apart to remove them but I'm pretty certain I will end up ruining the drum instead.

My daughter LOVES music, especially drums. She will make a drum out of anything, and is mesmerized whenever they show drummers on Sesame Street. I got her this drum for Christmas and it was a BIG hit. The size is perfect for her age and size. She figured out how to get it around her neck and would walk all over the place with it on, drumming with the included drumsticks, a spoon from her play kitchen, even her hands. The colors are bright and cheery, the top and bottom of the drum are clear so you can see three primary-colored balls that roll around inside. The sound is like a real drum - no muted, tinny, or lame sound here. If you buy this, don't expect to have a quiet home!

The only thing I found wrong with this drum was its durability. My daughter was wearing the drum around her neck and walked into the corner of our coffee table. The corner of the table dented the top of the drum which caused it to cave in, the blue band holding the top to slip off, and the drum pretty much was destroyed. I tried to put it together but it just wouldn't fit.

However this drum is so cute, and so loved, we bought our daughter a new one. This weekend the drum survived her birthday - five kids under five years of age fighting over the drum, wearing it, dropping it, sliding it across the floor. It held up, looks great, sounds great, and really inspires creativity in kids. I think it's important to get your child passionate about music at an early age, and that comes from REAL instruments, not fake plastic ones with batteries. This classic drum is near-perfect!

I have to say that with the price, I was expecting item to brake easilly specially in hands of my three year old son however, he loved it as I did too. Item is very durable, and he can make all the noice he wants with it. Shipping was fast, well packed and very easy to open also.
