Sheila E. in the Making?

My friend Sarah threw a birthday party for her 3-yr old son over the weekend. Instead of the usual party games, cake, bouncy castles, etc. (i.e. extreme boredom for the grownups), she hired Free to Be Me Drum Circle. Everyone participated, even the Big Kids. My little drummer girl really LOVED it & I found myself wishing I still had my Conga drums. Hmmm... Xmas is coming. Maybe I'll get Dex some serious percussion instruments & mold her into a world class drummer. Then she can support me in my not-too-far-away Old Age. LOL. Anyway, I thought it was a fun idea! Even better, it went to a good cause.

What an awesome idea!!! Kahina's birthday is coming up way too quickly and I still have no idea what we're going to do. I'm thinking maybe Benaroya's Soundscape, but I don't know. I wish we had something like this here. I'll have to look into it!!

My friends made fun of me when I got Django a couple of drums for his first birthday but they are still used and loved by both boys. If you're feeling really bold, I just saw a mini 5 piece drum set for sale at a discount store.
