This should not be called a toy at all! For the youngest child to make beautiful sounds! They will actually feel the vibrations of the music they create!

The origin of this metal percussion instrument with a soothing sound would be of Aztec origin. Like a xylophone, each METAL TONGUE DRUM produces a unique sound.

A first step into the wonderful world of music. Each Tongue Drum is a perfect child sized 16 cm in diameter. Played most comfortably with the child on the floor, and the drum in their lap!

This way they will actually feel the vibrations of the music, as well as hear the wonderful sounds they create! Using one, or both, of the rubber-headed mallets included.

Tuned in C major and endowed with an octave, our tongue drum will allow children to learn about music while having fun. Our team of music experts created scores specifically for this instrument to start with some well-known tunes.

An explanatory sheet also makes it possible to understand the relationship between the sounds produced by the tongue drum and classical notation (C scale also written with Anglo-Saxon letters) as well as the correspondence with the duration of the notes and the rhythm.

This beautiful instrument comes with a soft cloth bag to store the drum in when not in use. Vilac's TONGUE DRUM is quite solid, and can be played by the youngest musician. The mallets are sharp-ended dowels, so some supervision is suggested!
