RemoRH-5010-00 Rhythm Club Floor Tom Drum - Rhythm Kids, 10"

This is great. I got it for my daughter. But I supervise her with the sticks. Plus need to keep mind not to allow them to play it for too long to preserve their little ears.

Had a tom tom from same company which I liked better but this provides as much enjoyment for the kids.

I bought this for an active one-year old who loves to sing and beat out rhythms. He loves it. Remo is a well established and well respected name in the world of percussion, and not surprisingly, this is a well made, functional, drum perfectly sized for small children.

got this for my 3 1/2 year old. we own several Remo kid's percussion instruments, and we love them all. i have found that the rainforest print is slightly higher quality than the multicultural kid print (better heads), but this one is still very nice (they all are). the rainforest print ones cost a lot more too, so these are great for your budget. this one has a nice, clear, resounding (and loud!) sound, not unpleasant or tinny or dull. very nice of course that it has a strap- he can march around the house with it, which is what kids love to do. it seems very sturdy. even though it is not made in the USA like our older ones were, it still seems durable and well made. i expect it to last for a very, very long time.i would highly recommend this drum for kids 2 - 10 or even older. i wish the print wasn't so juvenile, that is really the only drawback i have. it is okay and all, but just looks like i belongs in a preschool. i like the rainforest print much better.i will say, if you are unsure about a drum to get say, as a gift, especially for someone else's child, please consider a few things. yes, duh, drums are loud. and while i love to hear my little kids clammoring away on the musical instruments, some are...shall i say....less obnoxious than others. i am just being honest! starting out with high quality (like remo) is the first step. but i will just be honest and say that some of the other drums are not as loud as this one, or maybe just don't lend themselves to being banged on so loud while my toddler tyrant marches around the house to be sure everyone hears him strut his stuff. the floor tom is an excellent choice for letting kid's get their jollies out, but with a less obtrusive sound. especially for little ones, even babies. i love the remo floor tom. but this one has its advantages with the strap and clear, bright sound. just be warned, the parents and siblings will be hearing a LOT of it! some families won't mind; it doesn't usually bother us. and if it does, we just put it up. good luck!!

I purchased this as a gift for my son's first birthday. He has a lot of interest in music and was drawn to the Remo lollipop drum in our music class. Unfortunately, the bongo falls a little short in my opinion.Tapping the drums lack the satisfying pop that I expect from a bongo. Rather, they emit more of a dull thud unless they are hit with a stick or at very particular location on the drum. That being said, a dull thud is A-OK for me when a 1 year old and his 3 year old sister are jamming out.The drums themselves can actually be separated, which is nice if you have two kids! They appear to be sturdy enough to withstand some toddler action.With a reputable brand such as Remo, my expectations were a little higher.

Bought this for our 7 month old granddaughter, who's starting to bang on things. The construction quality is really excellent - the interior bolts and wingnuts pose no risk to a child this young, who isn't strong enough to upon a tightened bolt, which is deep enough inside that she can't put it in her mouth. To those several reviewers who fault the sound, well, what do you expect for twenty bucks - a good bongo set goes for $300 or so. The drums sound best if placed on a hard surface (table, wooden floor - a rug will further dampen the sound). Any bongo will sound dead if you leave your hand/fingers on the head, you must "bounce" your fingers/hand off the head to allow it to vibrate.Acid test - within the first 60 seconds of seeing the drums, granddaughter was hitting each drum, one with the left and one with right hand. without prompting. I let her "play" a while, then I did some short couplettes, then she played some more. After five minutes or so, of course, she was ready for another toy (one she could put in her mouth). Sometime later I sat with her and played a youtube video on a laptop of a "first bongo solo" lesson. She immediately looked around for her bongos and began beating away again.My overall impression is that this is a great toy instrument to develop dexterity and rhythm. I also got some small mallets, which I am presently withholding as the handles need to be shortened and she's just not ready for them. When I do introduce them in a few months I expect her to be pleased with the different sound and hopefully she'll be ready by twelve months for a djembe or tomtom.
