Every kid wants to be a drummer, and this is the coolest way ever to get started! Sam Zucchini makes it fun and easy as he teaches how to keep time, count beats, understand rhythm and generally get tuned in to playing in an ensemble. The other Zucchini Brothers (popular children's entertainers, musicians and all-around colorful personalities) join in on guitar and keyboards so the young drummer can play along with the band. If there's a drum set in the house, that's fine -- but not necessary. Sam takes an ordinary kitchen stool and shows how to start using drumsticks to keep the beat on the rubber step-pad. The learning drummer develops coordination and timing through a series of interactive exercises that keep him or her involved and actively participating by playing along with the lesson. After teaching basic time-keeping, Sam moves on to the slightly more advanced concept of playing three different elements of the drum set (or stool): the snare, hi-hat and bass drum. By the time the lesson is completed, it will be time to take on more serious studies and the challenge of full drum set technique. Review: Wonderfully annoying for kids! - This is an excellent DVD to get your youngster (6-10 years old...mine is starting at 5) started on the drums. Do not go out and purchase an expensive drum set. Buy some sticks and a practice pad. The "Zuchini Brothers" have engaging and outgoing personalities that kids love. The lessos start very basic, and are best done with short segments, practice inbetween, and lots of rewards (kids love stickers). Keep a notebook with lots of praise. When your child completes the lessons, and has a real love for drums, it may be time to purchase that first piece, or junior set. Lots of silly faces, expressions, and laughter, all while a 3 piece talented band plays catchy tunes that kids love. "You are what you eat" and other such songs keep your child's interest. A great job done by the producers. Review: Teaches kids simple drum techniques - Daughter loved it.

It's ok
Video is ok. Bought for my 4 year old to watch while he "played" his first drumset, but it didn't really hold his or my interest. Would be better suited for a child a little older. I like that the guys are silly on the dvd and making it fun for the kids, but it's also kind of corny and looks outdated. Maybe in a year or two my son will like it better.

Not the best video for a 6 year old
My son watched about 5 minutes of this before he was uninterested in it. It looks very outdated and the song wasn't too ear catching, which could be the cause of the lack of interest.

Very underwhelmed & frustrated
This guy is all over the road... his inability to focus longer than a measure is very frustrating for a child as well as the parents attempting to help. I'm not a professional musician but, have been trained to instruct and this individual shouldn't be teaching when he cannot focus long enough to get a point across. He continually changes tempo, starts and stops, has no clear direction and inadequately skims over the basic foundations. He seems to focus more on an attempt to be silly and less on having a structure to the lessons.

My 3.5 year old has been watching this video none stop for days. I was disappointed that they didn't play actual drums for most of it but instead a stool, but it doesn't seem to bother my kid, and what do I know about drums.

Great DVD for kids
I bought this for my nephew's 3rd birthday and he has watched it about 100 times. Unfortunately he's too young for private instruction, but he has always been obsessed with drums, and he's got great timing so far!

This is a xmas present so I watched it beforehand to assess it's suitability. I was very pleased as it is perfectly pitched for an 8yr old, not like a boring lesson, but fun and interactive, I'm sure he'll enjoy it.
