Editorial Review

Bump ba-da-bump bump! Splash-splash! Parents who are convinced their thumping, bumping, smashing children are destined to be drummers, now’s your chance to get them (drum) rolling down that career path. This excellent toy encourages budding musicians to explore principles of rhythm even while they get squeaky-clean. Two drums float in the bath (or wading pool, sink, bucket…). Players beat on the drums with the drumsticks (two included), changing pitch by adjusting the water height of the drums. A clever, waterproof rhythm chart uses pictures of hands to guide drummers in learning five different rhythm patterns. Of course, improvisation is always a great way to learn, too, and kids’ musical imagination will be sparked the moment they lay eyes on these drums. (Ages 3 years and older) --Emilie Coulter

This toy makes bath time fun and exciting for kids!
An instruction booklet with color-coded notes and songs is included.
Strong construction and materials make this toy durable and resilient.
By changing the water level, children can create a variety of musical notes.

My nephews love these!, November 22, 2004

I bought these for my nephews and they totally love them!

My sister says they won't go in the bath without them. They tap on the drums and then tap on the tub, wall, and spout to get all kinds of cool sounds and rhythms going. They also use them to dump water on their head to rinse shampoo and as a view scope to see the bottom of the tub through the bubble bath.

Good clean fun. Highly recommended.

Drumming up fun, June 3, 2005

Lilley "Lilley" (DFW, TX) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Alex Tub Tunes Water Drums (Toy)

These water drums are enchanting. We play them in the tub and in the kiddie pool. You can change the pitch up controlling how much water is in them...something my children figured out rapidly.

At first, they just beat them hard and didn't really get the different rhythms I tried to get them to tap out - but now, they jam along to songs and sometimes the radio.

We did have a brief problem with remembering to hit the drum, not our sister...I blame Peter Pan and Captain Hook (and my husband for letting the kids watch it) for the problems we had fencing with the stick. Luckily, they decided they would rather drum!!!

Drums are ok, but not worth 5 stars, September 20, 2005

Aussie Mum "Aussie Mum" (Mexico) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Alex Tub Tunes Water Drums (Toy)

My children (32 months and 14 months) have had these drums for 2 months now. They were thrilled to get them, but the novelty wore off quickly. They are ok, but not worth 5 stars. They don't need drums to 'play drums' with other items - ie. banging etc. The different music tunes are really not that different.
