Baaahrambambam! A little drum telling a story of love. High up in the Bolivian Andes mountains, these drums are crafted by a loving family by making a treasure from their trash: Made from recycled tubes and sheep leather, they represent a special moment for Aymara families. The large red and white drum (tambor) is the first instrument that kids will learn how to play. When the moment is there to buy this exciting gift, the whole family gathers for a trip to the market to choose that one special drum. The family set up this project and following its success this artisanal family was able to send their children to university, one by one. Deck your festive tree with these adorable drums or place the bigger tambor under your festive tree for your little ones. And share the story of this family with yours.
