Comments about Remo Kids Percussion Gathering Drum:
As a former Kindermusik teacher I was introduced to these drums. I now teach my own program with 2 - 12 year old children. These drums are very durable withstand alot of abuse. They have been used at outdoor festivals, drum circles, in class, withstood my own 4 children and their friends playing them and are still being used and in great shape after 9 years of use. I highly recommend these drums for anyone considering drums for children. Just don't get them wet! They will delaminate.
Comments about Remo Kids Percussion Gathering Drum:
I use this drum in my KINDERMUSIK early childhood music & movement classes, and parents and children alike cannot get enough of it. It's perfect for a group of little hands to play together w/ teacher and parents. It provides a variety of sounds, from resounding booms to clear ostinatos (when tapped at the edges), and lots in between. Also, the ledges and built-in "stand" serve as fun percussion as well. Kids l-o-v-e it! (and so do I.)
Comments about Remo Kids Percussion Gathering Drum:
Purchased for Christmas for my five year old after watching him unintentionally destroy a "kids" drum set he received a year ago. Sound is great on this drum, it is of high quality, and adults are constantly drawn to it, as well! Mallets are even durable and high quality.

Comments about Remo Kids Percussion Gathering Drum:
This is a great piece and my 22 month granddaughter was drawn to it immediately. Looks very durable and sounds great. It is a great piece to build rhythm on young children. Please note that the picture on this item leads that you are getting three pieces, but it is only one piece that you will receive.

Comments about Remo Kids Percussion Gathering Drum:
Remo's "Kid's Rainforest" drums are made much in the same manner as adult drums and utilize a quality synthetic head that delivers deep sounds while staying in tune. I tried many of the sizes and found the 18" wide by 21" high to have the most enjoyable sound for the money. The included rubber mallets are quite suitable, but these drums can also be played with hands and sticks. For a small child I recommend the 16" wide by 8" high as a starter. The rainforest pattern is nice for young and old. These drums retail at fairly high prices and might be worth that much, but I like the discounts found at Musician's Friend.
Pros
- Durable
- Great Sound
- Nice size for multiple players at once

Comments about Remo Kids Percussion Gathering Drum:
I have had two of these drums for the past eight or nine years and they get played with several weeks out of the year in the children's music classes I do. I just bought two more. (The new ones have a circular cut-out where the rubber feet are attached, while the original ones are flat on the bottom with rubber feet just tacked on.) The drum heads on the original pair are still in good shape (mind you, we don't play them with sticks) and the shells look brand new. Parents and children play them together. They are large enough for six people to sit around and play with one or both hands. They have a resonant, deep sound. It's nice that the shell has a fun jungle image.
