A long-lasting gift

UK parents spent an average of £339* on toys during 2017 on each child. Many of those toys, quickly lose their “cool factor” especially at Christmas when children are inundated with presents which often end up forgotten at the back of a cupboard.

The most memorable gifts are often creative and rewarding experiences. For example, learning to play a musical instrument, like an Antonio Strad Violin, for example, genuinely makes you feel good and you will reap many health benefits regardless of age, including improved concentration, increased memory skills, and lower stress levels.

Purchasing any musical instrument has a lasting value. It is an investment in the future, the start of a hobby and a family activity that can be shared and enjoyed for a lifetime. There is nothing like the pride in watching your child perform the latest piece that they have learned. Many famous musicians have one stand-out instrument in their career and there is no reason that a novice shouldn’t too, you can purchase drum shell wraps to personalize your instrument to suit your taste and style. If you progress into performing live, the look of your instruments can often be the distinguishing factor of the band. Customizing your instrument allows you to decide what message you want to portray to your audience and as the drum set is often the largest instrument in a typical band, it is the best place to start.
