toddler with the drums

I read the headline and thought “Oh my goodness, a drum kit + a toddler = disaster!!!!” Then I read the story. What a brainwave! I think you might still go a lil crazy tho

this is so true I think a very smart mum

Today’s mums have much smarter ways of staying on top of what their kids are up to than I ever did : )
I was a bit alarmed at your story title but after reading the reason, I wish your daughter all the best.

Totally agree, My son who is nearly 3 is also a noisy character who enjoys playing the drums and pretending to be bookaboo. Silence is never golden with a toddler!

This is so true… its a big worry if my daughter goes quiet

i think learning to play music is great my daughter plays the guitar

I think it is a good idea as instruments are great learning tools. Brave to go with the drums though

Great idea. However, she will regret it. I give it a week!

I wish I have thought of this idea for my second son who was always mischievious,

It’s a great learning tool for them!! Start them early

That is so true when they are making noise you know where they are and roughly what they are up to.
What a great idea getting a drum kit tho i have a 4 year old son and didn’t even thing about a drum kit.

My son was given a drum set for his birthday one year from a relative. I thought they were inconsiderate.It’s different story if you purchased it yourself or asked Granny to buy it. It was a toy that only lived a short time in our house.

We had a toy drum kit but have moved our daughters onto the real thing mostly because the toy kit was not surviving the regular play. They are learning basic musical skills and beats. More importantly they are learning the responsibility and care for an instrument. Both of which can be gained toy or the real things. Always great to build an interest in music.

this is the same as my Grandson and he loved his drum kit that he loved it to death so my daughter bought him a cheaper set for that same reason if he was killing the drum kit with love then he was not up to anything he should not have been and when he played his drum’s he looked like Animal out of the muppets

I nearly had a panic attack when I saw poppy had brought my son a set of drums. But he plays them softly and even trys to make patterns.

I know we all think “oh no noisy instruments” but music is fantastic for them in so many ways

lol good thinking on mums behalf I think

good thinking if she can put up with the drum noise!

I bought my son a keyboard for Christmas. They are fantastic for learning and development in a lot of ways.
