If you’re looking to give a djembe to a young child, this model is not recommended because it is too heavy for them to handle. For that purpose, we recommend our preschool djembe instead. With a plastic body rather than solid wood, this djembe will be easier to move around and play. It also eliminates the risk of injury for younger children.
