This is a toy we bought second hand I think maybe those parents were trying to protect their ear drums so sold it at a car boot.

Who is it for- Though the manufacturers say from 2 years my 16 month old son loves playing with it and I can't see any problems with him using it to be honest even though he is younger.

What it is- Its a very sturdy plastic drum the two beaters are attached by cord to the drum and can clip on to the side of the drum when not in use so they don't get lost. It is very robust and has coped well with my son knocking it sitting on it with no damage to it at all

My son seems to enjoy playing with it and often beats a tune along to music we listen to and I am hoping it encourages his to play and like music hence why we bought it.

What I would of like to see on this drum is a way for the child to wear it but I am guessing the reason it isn't on the drum is for health and safety reason


Where can you get it- if unlike me you don't find it at a car boot it is currently on offer at Amazon for £11.99

I do think it is value for money and I am guessing if you are looking at buying a drum you don't mind the loud noise it will inevitably make
