Do you have a child who you would like to encourage to learn a musical instrument? Percussion instruments like drums can be a very good choice. They have a particular appeal to young, active boys, but all children can benefit. When your child takes drum lessons, they will learn the fundamentals of music in the most basic and simplest way for them to understand, even at a young age. It s important to make certain your child has a good teacher who will impart proper techniques. The next step is buying a good economical beginner drum set (between $100 – $400) appropriate for a child 4 8 years old.

The Sound Percussion Junior 5 Piece Drum Set

For those looking for something adequate and inexpensive, Sound Percussion offers this decent starter kit. It includes a snare, two mounted toms, floor tom w/ legs, bass, bass pedal, hi-hats, crash/ride cymbal, hi-hat stand, cymbal stand, snare stand and throne. It has average shell construction and creates a bland tone. But this is a great inexpensive kit for assessing early talent.

CB Junior Drum Set

This kit is great for a younger rocker because the entire kit has been scaled down to suit the needs of the little ones. The kit comes with a snare, two mounted toms, a floor tom w/ legs, bass,bass pedal , hi-hat, crash, throne and cymbal stands. The Junior kit uses a bass mounted crash cymbal stand that mounts just behind the two mounted toms. It has decent heads already mounted, and a drum key for head tuning. Over all this is a superb beginning kit. CB uses a birch-maple dual ply mix, and that results in a sturdy shell with warm tone and solid projection.

Unfortunately, no throne or cymbals are included. But you may find some good package deals at your local music store.
