Tired of flimsy maracas that are too small for little ones to grasp? These oversized maracas are a whopping 9.5 inches long and colorfully decorated with bright confetti pieces. The tapered handles are easy for toddlers to grasp and offer a nice balance to the pellet-filled heads. The slightest shake elicits a satisfying rattle while the most vigorous shaking still sounds musical. Children develop fine motor skills and learn about rhythm just by shaking maracas to the beat of their favorite tunes. Maybe they'll give you a turn too! --Tami Horiuchi

This upgrade kit for the DX-100 drum kit gives you an additional percussion pad and an additional foot pedal. The additional pad provides a customizable percussion trigger for sounds like toms or cow-bell. The pad can also act as a cymbal trigger providing sounds like ride, crash, splash, or china. The pedal acts as both a Hi-Hat open/close control and as a double bass pedal.
