The Sunflower Petal Drum is a stainless steel outdoor tongue drum. Based on Percussion Play's Babel drum, this robust outdoor musical instrument produces gentle, ethereal sounds using a soft mallet. Ideal for inclusive playgrounds, music parks, sensory playgrounds and intergenerational play.

Each Petal Drum contains a small (10” / 250mm) Babel Drum encased within specific shaped aluminium ‘petals.’ The flower heads are securely mounted to a stainless steel frame or ready to be wall-mounted and come supplied with soft, flexible mallets specifically designed to produce soft, soothing tones.
