My little Kenny is a fourth of July baby and is he ever the little firecracker! For the most part we already have gotten him his birthday gifts and just have a few more things to get him. Now he informs us that what he wants MORE THAN ANYTHING is a drum set like his cousin Eddy who he visited last weekend. Basically for most of the weekend we couldn’t get him away from the drum set. So I guess you could say that this shouldn’t have really come as a surprise.
My husband thinks that this is just great and I say that we don’t even consider such a venture especially this close to his birthday unless we can find quite a “deal” that is under $100.00. Because Kenny is only six years old obviously we won’t get him a full sized drum set but rather a childrens drumset, appropriate for his age. I am googling childrens drumsets like a madwoman to see what I can find. This may very well be a late birthday or early Christmas present. I think we have to be careful not to spoil the little wizkid! I hope that we can find a fun little kids drumset for Kenny so he can have a really special birthday as well as a really fun fourth of July, we’ll see!
I had my “Glory Days” when I was a teenager and that is enough for me. I played bass guitar in what I thought was sure to be a “happening” band. Those days are gone but the memories still linger. As a father I now see the idealism that I once possessed in my children and it is quite fun to live vicariously through them. And hey you never know, maybe “their” dreams will come true! My older son has been playing lead guitar for awhile now in a band that has gained a lot of popularity in our area. His younger brother seems to be interested in the drums.
My wife and I have begun looking for childrens drumsets so that our younger son can also experience the joy of playing music. He is quite happy about this and wants to come along with us to pick it out! Last night we all looked online together and found a childrens drumset that we all really liked and even more importantly, at a price that my wife and I really liked! I am glad to see that so far my kids seem to want to carry on the family tradition, (their grandfather played the banjo for many years). Music has always been an important part of our lives!
My wife and I became parents five years ago when we had our son. Two years later we had a daughter. With kids so young a birthday is a HUGE event and something to look forward to for weeks on end. Those were the days when you looked forward to your birthday! Our kids recently spent time with their 16 year old cousin Kevin. Kevin is a drummer in a band and our son is so taken by him. Ever since our most recent visit, our son says that what he most wants for his birthday is a drum set like Kevin’s.
I am glad that my son looks up to Kevin and I am starting my search for childrens drums. I think this will be a lot of fun and my wife is all for it too as long as he keeps the noise to an acceptable level. It is nice to know that kids drumsets are reasonably priced and should last him several years at least. Kids grow so fast and we are always so busy. I have to make the very most of their childhood years and watching my son play with a childrens drumset is a wonderful part of doing just that!
My kids have all chosen to play instruments and we are happy about that for the most part. Things are a little noisy at times but since our kids are happy and well adjusted we are game. Our oldest son chose to play guitar at a young age. We bought him a kids electric guitar that was recommended by a therapist who thought a hobby like guitar would help our son learn to channel some of his energy that stems from his ADHD diagnosis. And the rest they say is history, he has been playing that crazy guitar ever since! Our studious daughter LOVES piano and has dreams that one day she will be a concert pianist. We’ll see!
Our son, our baby seems to be following the family tradition. He says that he wants to play the drums. This does not surprise me as he seems to enjoy tapping on the kitchen table much to the chagrin of my tired and overworked husband! Our young son has a summer birthday and I am beginning to look at childrens drumsets now. It is actually kind of fun and I know my little boy will be SO pleased! He really looks up to his brother and nothing would make him happier than if he could play his little childrens drumset with his big bro!
Our very adorable five year old son is SO excited about his sixth birthday that is coming up on the second of April. He wants to play the drums in the worst way and my husband and I believe that it would be a great idea to get him a kids drumset. My brother got his son a childrens drumset two years ago and it went over so well that I have no problem getting one for our son. I will start bookmarking sites that include drums for kids that pique the interest of both my husband and myself.
I am excited to watch my kids and grow and nothing makes me happier than to see them happy! I am probably just as excited as my son is for his birthday to come! They’re only young once and I don’t want to miss a minute! Spoken from a grateful parent who at the moment appears to have her priorities straight!
You Don’t Have To Be Perfect You Just have To Love!
Right now I feel I am in that sandwich generation because I’m not only taking care of my children but my aging parents as well. I don’t mind because in the end I realize that my parents took such good care of me and I know that one day my children will take care of me. It’s just that at times I feel squeezed between these two slices of bread. My father has been struggling with heart disease and my wife and I have been back and forth to various doctors about his condition. We also have been making preparations for son’s seventh birthday who wants to play drums in the worst way just like his older brother Kenny.
We didn’t have much time to plan for our young son’s birthday but it didn’t take too much time to do a search online to find some really cool kids drumsets. By the next day we found the kids drumset we wanted and two days later it arrived! We are keeping this very special childrens drumset at my office until the big day arrives. I admit that I don’t have much time to myself these days and things often get done at the last minute but the most important thing is that they do get done and that we all love each other! You can’t ask for anything more!
Music has been a part of mine and my family’s life for many years. As a teenager, (back in the dark ages) I played drums in a band. I just loved that, much to my parent’s chagrin. My parents were from the Big Band era, (music I also love) but to my parents there is no other type of music. Now my young son seems to also want to listen to the beat of the drum. His birthday is in a couple of weeks and I have my eye on a childrens drumset that I think he would love!
If he grows up and wants to play in a band this is ok with me as long as he is happy and can make it on his own! My oldest daughter has played piano for years and while she isn’t playing piano for a career, it is a very important part of her life and she does still love to perform. We will get some drum lessons for our son if he wants. I will say that life without the sound of music would be pretty dull and I think my family would agree!
Helping Your Child Be Who They “Really” Are!
For the most part I am a happy man. While I don’t love my job every day and you could even say that there are those days when to say I “like” my job, is pushing it! However in these troubled times, one must be grateful to even have a job. We have a nice home and while we certainly don’t live “high off the hog” we do feel very blessed. What is most important to my wife and I is that are kids are happy and well adjusted. It is at times a never ending job to see that you are kids are happy and learning to love themselves but if I could use anything as a barometer of my own worth as a man it would be that my kids love themselves for who they “really” are.
My five year old son kept telling my wife and I that he wanted to play the drums. He not only told us this verbally but he also showed it by his actions, (i.e. beating on anything he can find around the house including chairs, the floor and even his mother’s beloved coffee table!) This past Christmas we knew we had to look for a kids drumset, there was no question about it! We looked at various types of childrens drumsets and found much more than we bargained for. We chose a childrens drumset that we thought he would like and he just LOVES it. Our house is filled with the beat beat beat of the drum! I must say however that even at the age of five, he seems to have good rhythm and I believe he has potential. If he’s happy than I’m happy and all is good in the world, (at least are corner of it!)
So it’s the last day of the year! How does the time go SO fast? We just got through another good Christmas. Our kids still seem to be enjoying their gifts, so that’s good. As we prepare for New Year’s Eve, my young son promises to give us another concert as we more than likely will be watching new Year’s Rockin Eve again this year! We bought our son a childrens drumset and he just LOVES it! We really did our homework while searching for childrens drumsets.
I feel that success as a parent is seeing the joy in the eyes of your children. Money and career is important but nothing can beat the love between parent and child! Our older son loves karate and is soon prime to be a black belt. Sharing this accomplishment with him has been an incredible bonding experience for our family! My wish for this new year is that everyone can experience joy, sense of purpose and to be able to experience life as authentically as possible!
Last year my 7 year old son came home from school after attending music class saying he HAD to get some drums because he wants to grow up and be a rock star! I thought this was quite humorous and went right along with it. My wife and I purchased a childrens drumset and we have never looked back. Our son loves to “bang on the drums all day!” This has sometimes not gone over to well with my wife who requires an understandable amount of peace and quiet!
My darling daughter just 6 years old says she wants an electric guitar for Christmas. I said to my wife, “Here we go again!” However since the drums have gone over so well with our son, why not get a childrens electric guitar? Who knows maybe our children will form their own little band. I am doing a search for beginner childrens guitars right now and know that I have to act quickly as Christmas is next week! I think this is a lot of fun. Maybe we’ll have to build a sound proof studio so my wife can definitely keep her sanity!
