Djembes with their large ‘heads’ allow multiple beats from low to high to be made, with players able to create unique and versatile sounds simply by hitting or slapping the different areas of the Djembe’s head with their hands.

The stainless steel body makes this a smart choice for urban environments delivering high-class performance and featuring robust construction for enhanced durability.

Fabricated of stainless steel the Large Babel Drum has been carefully tuned to replicate the sweet sound of steel pans. Played with the hands, preferably by striking with the fingertips, the 8-notes produce perfect musical tones. The Large Babel Drum is tuned to the G major pentatonic scale G3-B4. The drum creates beautiful melodies with remarkable long sustain. No previous drumming experience required to produce mesmerizing mellow tones. Available in large and small.

Fabricated of stainless steel the small Babel Drum has been carefully tuned to replicate the sweet sound of steel pans. Played with the hands, preferably by striking with the fingertips, the 8-notes produce perfect musical tones. The small Babel Drum is tuned to the C major pentatonic scale C4 – C5. The drum creates beautiful melodies with remarkable long sustain. No previous drumming experience required to produce mesmerizing mellow tones. Available in large and small.

This Soprano set of six chimes are the perfect addition to any outdoor environment, allowing players to experiment and explore the musical sounds they can make within the safe and harmonic pentatonic scale. Soprano Pentatonic is the smallest of Freechimes – perfect for early years but just as suitable for older children and adults as well.

Inspired by the traditional Cuban/Peruvian Cajón drums this stainless steel resonating box is easy to play. They are attractive, very sturdy and can double as a seating solution. Several together form the perfect drum circle.

What looks simple at first glance—a pump, a channel, and a diverter leading to two mixing plates—reveals complexity far greater than its humble appearance suggests. The winder pump feeds the system, and a distributing trough delivers it to one of the two mixing plates below. Tailwater’s genius is that it requires complex interaction and negotiation of the children playing with it. While one person releases water at the pump, others downstream have to decide when, where, and how much of the water is delivered below. An exploration of gravity, engineering, and cooperative teamwork, this water playscape stimulates social interaction and cognitive development in equal measure.

Compact but complex, Ripple combines four elements of water play in a balanced arrangement that can accommodate many children at the same time. A winder pump releases water into a channel that splits into two, with each side controlled by a hand-controlled dam. One branch leads to a water wheel driven by the kinetic force of falling water and the other leads to a splash table. It is possible to maintain eye contact from any point in the system, encouraging collaborative social play and interactive engineering. From toddlers to parents, everyone can find a way to engage in the stimulating, fun, sensory water play this system provides. 

A perfect water play element for smaller spaces, Redmond delivers far more than the sum of its parts. A winder pump is the single source of water, pouring into a distributing table that then deposits water into a long channel and eventually a basin below. Despite the simplicity and minimalism of this system, it offers multiple opportunities for children to interact with and explore the movement of water together. Anyone questioning if these two basins and single channel will be enough to keep kids engaged needs only to recall the hours of fun provided by a single puddle or paddling pool in a backyard. Social and sensory, this elegant bit of water play is an invaluable addition to a playscape.

The ultimate water playscape for large groups of children, Rapids features half a dozen mixing plates, water tables, and collection basins stemming from a single water source: an elevated central winder pump and basin. Ideal for coordinated group play and exploration of gravity and engineering, this sensory smorgasbord of pools and channels is innately interactive and cooperation-based. Social skills are a valuable commodity in this system where water can be diverted and directed at many different points before it reaches its terminal level.

Dynamic and multilayered, Newtown offers the combination of a large splash table, a distributing table, and multiple water channels designed to keep many children engaged simultaneously. A single winder pump provides the water for the entire system, with hand-operated check dams, drains, and weirs throughout allowing for complex play. As water flows along channels and tables, canny operators can work out hydro-engineering or observe the spinning water mill as it conveys water. This type of play offers sensory stimulation and motor skill development—making it perfect for solo play or highly cooperative social interactions.

Ideal for a playscape with an integrated reservoir as the base, Narrows provides a series of distinct play areas rising up from the water below, each mimicking different natural systems. Incorporating a triangular water reservoir with dams, multiple winder pumps, channels, mills, and an Archimedes screw—opportunities abound for group or individual exploration and play. Highly sensory, endlessly engaging, and technically stimulating, children can move from station to station and discover various ways of moving, damming, and conveying water throughout the site. A beach, a creek, a waterfall, and any other natural setting you wish to imagine in one water-filled place. 

One of the more sophisticated, multi-channel systems we offer, Meander provides small or large groups of children with endless variations of water play. Two channels split off from a central hand pump and distributing basin. Every step along the way, you are invited to use your creativity to experiment and discover the different ways that gravity and engineering can stop, move, shift, and convey water. Communication and motor skills get a workout as kids create their own games and ordering systems. Long after the splash pad grows monotonous, kids working in an interactive waterscape will still be pumping, damming, balancing, and splashing together. Children of all ages and abilities can find a place to fit into the action, from operating a weir to observing the scoop wheel spin.
