Take your child on a journey to far away places...

Give children music made all around the world and they will begin what could be a lifetime discovery of other cultures and countries. Remo's terrific collection of world hand drums are real drums, designed and constructed especially for children. Your kids will be drawn to their interesting shapes, sizes, colors and sounds.

These drums have the true sounds that are expected from a professional company like Remo. The heads are Remo's own patented mylar and the bodies are made from durable recycled wood fiber rainforest fabric. These musical instruments will last a lifetime.

The drums featured on this page have received the prestigious Oppenheimer "Best Toy Award," signifying that they are all safe, well-made and educational.

Kid's Konga

The kid's Konga plays the cutting Latin rhythms of an adult conga drum at a fraction of the size. It stands 15 inches tall and is 6.5 inches across, making it a standing drum for toddlers and/or a carrying drum for anyone older. It is very durable and never needs tuning. What a positive, healthy way to introduce a toddler to music! Playing hand drums stimulates the development of spatial perception, limb muscles and auditory nerves.

Ages: Toddlers +

Kid's Djembe

(pronounced jem-bay)
This African drum's unique conical shape allows it to produce three distinct sounds: play in the middle of the head for a very deep bass tone, play off-centre for a mid tone, and play at the edge for a high-pitched tone. It comes with an adjustable, removable strap for carrying. Called the "magical" drum, the djembe has been used for centuries in West Africa at social events and celebrations accompanying song and dance.

Size: 14 inches high x 8-inch diameter 
Ages: 4+

Kid's Floor Tom Tom

The Tom Tom is an exotic, colorful drum for the floor or tabletop. Your child can stand or sit as she or he dances the rhythms around, just like in a Native American pop-wow. It is light, durable and never needs tuning. How durable? Remo claims that children can sit on this drum! Two rubber-head mallets are included, although it can be played with hands as well.

Diameter: 7.5 inches x 10 inches
Ages: 5+

Kid's Bongos

Kids love to play these Cuban-design bongos! Tapping them with their fingertips they can sit or stand or march. And they enjoy the two different pitches from the two head sizes. These bongos are lightweight, exceptionally tough and never need tuning. However, they still deliver the big, crisp sound of adult-sized drums.

Diameter: 6.5 inches x 5, 6 inches
Ages: 2+

Kid's Lollipop Drum

Delicious sound on a handle!
The lollipop is a "frame" drum based on a simple drum design originating in ancient Africa and Japan. The "swirly" part of the lollipop is actually a durable drum head that never needs tuning. The child holds the drum in one hand while playing it with the mallet (included) or by hand. It comes in three sizes and sounds: small/high, medium/mi, large/low. The large (shown) is 10 inches across.
Ages: 2+
