Overview

Sized for Small Hands, It's a Hit with Kids

Made for small hands, this drum is sized perfectly for youngsters learning to play music. The gathering drum is one of the largest instruments in Remo's line of Kids drums, which just adds to the fun. Set it on the floor and kids will be drawn to it like a moth to a flame. Whether it's played with hands, mallets, or sticks, this inviting instrument makes it easy for children to find their own rhythm.

Built Like a Grown-Up Drum

As with Remo's other Kids drums, the gathering drum is sized to suit petite players. Featuring a rounded design with no sharp edges, the gathering drum is totally safe (that is, unless kids pick it up and bonk each other on the head). The fact that it's virtually indestructible is a major plus -- made of Acousticon shell material and a Fiberskyn 3 drumhead, the instrument is durable enough to withstand whatever abuse kids will send its way. It's made from the same materials found in many of Remo's World Percussion drums, covered in a fun, colorful "Rain Forest" fabric.

Remo's Description

Remo Kids Gathering Drum

Covered in Rain Forest fabric, with no rough or sharp edges, the Remo Gathering Drum can be played with the hands, sticks or mallets. Kids enjoy playing this big drum solo style, but have the most fun when other kids (big kids too!) join in the fun, inventing cool rhythm patterns all on their own. The Gathering Drum is made using the same Acousticon shell material and Fiberskyn 3 drumheads used in many of Remo's World Percussion drums.

The Remo Kids Percussion Collection

Children love to make music, and, since rhythm is the foundation of all music making, the Remo Kids Percussion Collection gives children an exciting way to make music with their own instruments. Not only is playing music fun, research has found that music participation can have a beneficial and long lasting impact on a child's self-discipline and self-confidence. Remo Kids Percussion is a positive, healthy introduction to music and rhythm -- the perfect way for children and their parents to discover just how rewarding making music can be.
