FAQ About Baby Drums

What is a baby drum?

A baby drum is an instrument or toy which, in addition to the drum function, sometimes also has add-ons such as music and/or animal voices.

When should a child start learning an instrument?

Before you start with real instruments, you can already start with early musical education. Baby drums, for example, are very suitable for this, because in addition to the drum function, they often have additional functions, e.g. integrated music and/or animal voices.
