Little Dutch Safari Friends Music Drum

The wooden finish feels really sturdy and the safari animal prints are adorable, so it’s held up well to daily banging. My little one loves the soft drumbeat sound, and it keeps her entertained for a good ten minutes at a time, which feels like a win.

My one-year-old grabbed the little drumstick immediately and started tapping along to the safari animal pattern—the handle is perfectly sized for tiny hands. The cheerful sound it makes isn't annoying at all, which is a huge win for parents.

The drum's paint is smooth and glossy with no rough edges, which I appreciate since my toddler chews on everything. The safari animal graphics are adorable and the sound is soft enough not to drive me crazy during playtime.
