My 2 year old daughter Annabelle said she would love to "pet" a flute!

They would like to "pet" . . .

My girls, 3 and 5 years old, would love to "pet" the drums and cymbals, respectively. Frankly, they like anything that has a big "impact."

Xylophone would definitely be a favorite since they already practice this one at home!

"Around the World"

By Mary-Ann Petraitis on Friday, November 11, 2011

Our 3-year-old is obsessed with music, so much so that our neighbors regularly hear him drumming at 6am! I am sure he would be enthralled with everything, but most certainly the drums.

My kids would like the drums best.

My musical kids

My 3 kids would love to pet all kinds of instruments but each and everyone has a favorite. Brandon would love to pet any percusion instrument, Melissa would be happy if she could pet the piano or a guitar and my youngest Andrea just loves the maracas.

International Drummer Boys

By Kelly Milan on Friday, November 11, 2011

This would be great for our South Korean Exchange student's first trip to enjoy with our own 5 year old "Drummer Boy." They share a set of junior Ludwig drums and a lot of love!

Mother

Chloe loves the bongo drums - we experience the beach front bongo music during the summer. It would be awesome to see her enjoy the percussion vibe.

My daughter (Caiden) would LOVE to "pet" the marimba and my son (Soren) would be thrilled to "pet" the bass drum!

The instrument my son wants to "pet"

By John Gould on Friday, November 11, 2011

Haha! Thats a funny subject line. My son actually loves the orchestra SOOOOOOO much that at the age of 10 he is now taking up learning to play the cello and is being extremely serious about it. When he practices he is so focused that I swear the house could catch fire and he wouldnt notice. The chance to take him to see this would be outstanding and I hope drive his love for the cello even deeper.
