{"product_id":"tongue-drum-music-instrument-with-soothing-sounds","title":"Tongue Drum Music Instrument with Soothing Sounds","description":"\u003cp\u003eA steel tongue drum is about as easy as an instrument gets. Tap one of the cut tongues with a mallet or a fingertip and the note rings out, holds, and slowly fades. Every tongue is tuned to the same scale, so there are no wrong notes to hit: whatever order you play them in sounds deliberate. That is what makes it so easy to sit down with for ten minutes and lose track of time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt suits the quiet end of the day: meditation, stretching, journalling, or just something to do with your hands that is not a screen. The rounded steel body resonates for a long time, so a slow sequence of notes fills a room without ever getting loud enough to bother anyone else in the house. Play it on a table, on a cushion, or on your lap, with the rubber feet holding it steady.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChildren take to it immediately, and it is a gentler introduction to music than most instruments because it rewards experimenting rather than accuracy. Everything arrives together: the drum, a pair of mallets and a padded bag so it can travel. Wipe the surface with a dry cloth after playing to keep fingerprints off the finish, and keep it away from damp so the tuning stays where it should.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTuned steel tongue drum: all notes share one scale, so any sequence sounds in tune\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlayable with the included mallets or with your fingertips\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLong-sustaining resonant tone at a low, room-friendly volume\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRubber feet keep the drum steady on a table, cushion or lap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo musical training, reading or tuning required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn the box: tongue drum, two mallets and a padded carry bag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdult supervision is recommended for young children; the mallets are small parts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCare: wipe with a dry cloth, keep away from damp and direct heat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBest for: meditation, relaxation, sound baths, classrooms and family play\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eShipping \u0026amp; returns\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eShips from , 75 Main St, Sag Harbor, NY 11963.
