Drums for Schools Educator Star djembe mixed pack of 5

Introducing the Drums for Schools Educator Star djembe mixed pack of 5

Five hand-painted mini djembe drum pack, each with a wooden drumstick, and packed in a handy cotton rucksack, together with a Good Practice Guide for Early Years settings. This Mixed Pack contains Educator Star Wooden Djembes in five different heights – 12cm, 15cm, 20cm, 25cm, and 30cm – with diameters ranging from 3in to 6.5in, offering a versatile range for group use.

These are working drums and not toys. The larger sizes in the set are big enough for very young children to play with two hands, and make surprisingly good sounds. These drums are really good for young children because they can be handled easily and carried around by the string handle. However they can also be played by older children and even grown-ups, either with the free wooden drumstick provided, or with the fingertips. Being relatively small the drums make a higher pitched sound than bigger drums.

Each drum of this mini djembe drum pack is made by hand using traditional materials and techniques. The wood is mahogany, the playing head is goatskin and the skin is stretched tight using cotton string. The designs on these instruments have been painted by hand using safe, water-based paints, and they’re all different.
