Introducing the Percussion Plus World Slap Djembe rope tuned pack - 4 players

The new generation of Percussion Plus’ mega-popular Slap Djembes is here! Manufactured in the world’s premier Djembe factory in Bali, these fantastic educational drums are more durable, resonant and vibrant than ever. With their instructive drumheads, robust construction and range of sizes these Slap Djembe packs make for an easy and highly convenient addition to any music education setting. The rope tuned packs help provide a joyous and authentic drumming experience for small ensembles, making them ideal purchases for schools.

Designed to stand the test of time in classroom environments, the strong yet lightweight design amplifies their accessibility without compromising on sound; the booming bass acts as a foundation, with crisp slaps and deep resonant tones providing the exciting variety that makes these djembes ideal for group music lessons.

Supplied either rope tuned or pre-tuned and including a range of sizes, these World Slap Djembe packs encourage you to form your own djembe circle and get playing. They are fantastic tools for SEND learning, Whole Class Ensemble Teaching (WCET) and can even be used as part of CPD programmes for teachers looking to develop their musical options and skills!

Immaculate construction in leading Bali factory

These World Slap Djembes are now made in a superb world-leading djembe manufacturing facility in Bali. Each drum is subject to rigorous quality control and features a sophisticated one-piece body construction. This ensures a lively and consistent sound, a sleek profile, and enhanced durability. The lightweight, sturdy construction is an essential benefit for constant use in education. Plus, the rubber-coated base prevents slipping, crucial for the physical demands of playing.

An innovative teaching tool

Slap Djembes are not only sturdy and attractive but also provide great teaching aids. The screen-printed, instructional drumheads make classroom music teaching that bit easier by showing students exactly where they need to hit the drum to make different sounds. This helps to speed up the learning process, allowing more time to focus on rhythm, ensemble, dynamics and other musical elements.

Comes with Andy Gleadhill’s Slap Djembe book

Whether you are a percussion expert or have never taught music before, Andy Gleadhill's Slap Djembe is the best introduction to playing and teaching the djembe, and it comes included with all our Slap Djembe packs! Utilising innovative, accessible notation this award-winning resource features 12 rhythms from around the globe with insightful performance notes and 10 weekly lessons that can be applied to any tune in the book. That's 120 lessons, planned for you!

What’s more, a raft of additional content is available for FREE on the Percussion Plus website, including video and guides, whiteboard-compatible resources and a full PDF of the book, all designed specifically for the classroom. Click HERE to find out more.

Durable Mylar drum head

The Mylar drum head is precisely tensioned for optimal resonance, offering exceptional durability for even the most energetic players. Mylar is an extremely robust material, often used in aerospace engineering; for drum heads it provides excellent all-weather protection, resisting excessive stretching, humidity, and temperature fluctuations. This helps prevent tuning issues and keeps the head from drying out over time, ensuring a consistent and true sound. Superb production values like this make the World Slap Djembes the pinnacle in educational and sustainable drumming, supporting hundreds of lessons over many years to come.

Striking, multicultural design

The ‘World’ design embodies the inclusive spirit of djembe drumming and of Percussion Plus' ethos. Inspired by Andy Gleadhill's Slap Djembe, the map-style sarong-wrapped shell immerses students in a multicultural learning experience. It’s visually striking too, with many flags providing great colourful diversity atop a deep blue oceanic background that looks great in any lighting.



A djembe for every scenario

These djembes are available either pre-tuned, (incredibly lightweight and convenient) or rope tuned (more adaptable and traditional), or mechanically tuned (an ideal middle ground) allowing you to select the right type of drum for your circumstances. Better still, they come in a variety of sizes. 6", 7", 8", 10" and 12". There are also a range of djembe packs - brilliantly convenient, and cost effective, for schools and drum groups.

This size selection has the extra benefit of adding variety to the soundscape of your Djembe circle, producing an extensive mix of pitches and dynamics to engage the entire ensemble, and ensuring that there's a suitable option for players of all sizes too!





What's in the pack?

  • 1 x 7" djembe
  • 1 x 8" djembe
  • 1 x 10" djembe
  • 1 x 12" djembe




How to play the Slap Djembe

The design on the drumhead shows examples of hand positions that can be employed to obtain a fabulous variety of tones from the drum, from punchy bass to cracking highs. When you hit the skin, let your hand bounce back allowing the sound to ring.



The area in the centre of the drum produces a warm and full bass tone. To play a good bass, the djembe must be struck in the middle of the drumhead with the hand slightly cupped, palm down, and returning quickly from the drum. Use your whole arm and pretend that you are bouncing a basketball; this will result in the perfect action for playing good bass tones!


Bass demo



Straighten all your fingers at the same time. Aim to strike the drum so that the joint where your fingers meet your hand (at the first knuckle) is at the rim of the drum. Think of your hand as an extension of your arm and remember not to keep it on the drum, but to let it bounce back from the drumhead as soon as you’ve played the note. This will produce a clear, ringing ‘tone’, with good projection.


Tone demo



This is played around the edge of the drum. Relax your hand and arm and hit the drum with a slapping motion. Spread your fingers out slightly when you strike the edge of the drum for a whipping crack sound. For an even more distinctive and muted slap, hold one hand down in the middle of the drum in the bass position, while simultaneously playing the slap tone on the edge of the drum.

great for kids with dry skin!
Scent: Fragrance Free, Size: 2 Pack - 3.5 Ounce & 8 Ounce
This ointment has been a great find for sensitive baby skin. We started using it for dry patches and mild eczema, and it made a noticeable difference within a few days. The texture is rich and soothing without feeling overly greasy, and it absorbs well enough that it doesn’t leave everything sticky. I really appreciate that it’s fragrance-free and made without steroids—perfect for everyday use, especially on delicate skin. We’ve used it on everything from dry cheeks to minor irritation, and it’s been consistently gentle and effective. The 2-pack is a nice bonus since we keep one at home and one in the diaper bag. A little goes a long way, so the jars last longer than expected. The only downside is the price—it’s a bit more expensive than some alternatives—but for the quality and peace of mind, it feels worth it. Overall, I’d definitely recommend this for parents looking for a reliable, gentle solution for dry or sensitive skin.

Only thing that worked! So thankful!
Scent: Fragrance Free, Size: 2 Pack - 8 Ounce
I can’t believe I’m going to do this, but I’m writing a review and a long one at that! My baby began having skin issues around 5weeks old. Which I believe was from washing her with Honest baby soap(but I believe any soap would have been a problem)- up until then I had only used a wash cloth and water. But that week I washed her twice with the soap and that weekend my son had back to back soccer games it was 90degeee weather and my baby got sweaty. Then after that her skin just seemed to have problem after problem! I didn’t know if it was heat rash, eczema, or baby acne or combination? So no more soap and returned to water and started putting breastmilk and tallow on her which really helped with the redness. but her skin still felt like sand paper and would easily get inflamed if warm or sweaty. Around 8weeks of age she started getting cradle cap behind and on her ears and her eyebrows, then mildly on her head ugh. And she was VERY itchy and would be itching her head all night. So I ordered MuStella shampoo and the Frida cradle cap scrubby and brush set. After 2-3 days my babies head had red bumps, very inflamed and still very itchy. It said to wash everyday and remove the scales but I just couldn’t keep doing that. I would slather tallow on my babies head after washing and I returned to just rinsing with water as that seemed to help. I would also gently use the comb because her hair would be crazy after applying cream to scalp. This also helped to further distribute the cream and clean out some dry flakes from scalp- no need to scrub with that scrubber. But she was still itchy. So that’s when I decided to add the colloidal oatmeal for the sleepless nights itching- which this has 1% as an active ingredient. The price was definitely not appealing but I got it. After 1 day of using this it was like my babies skin was completely transformed!!! Even her sandpaper feeling face got clear and smooth feeling again! All day I was just so thankful and happy to have my babies smooth skin back after weeks of battling skin problem after skin problem. I really think it had to do with the soap in the first place, maybe effected natural skin barrier. Which if you research skin ph and barrier a lot of things will do that. What really washes dirt away is rubbing and water. I could kick myself for even using the the soap on my babies precious skin. So what worked for us was not using soaps and just washing with water, slather on tallow WHILE SKIN IS STILL WET, this locks in the moister. Water is moisture and all lotion and creams do are lock in the moisture so you want your skin wet before applying creams. Creams help slow down transepidermal water loss. Which is another reason to protect your skin barrier as it has ability to retain moisture better. So we washed with water, applied whipped tallow while still wet and this colloidal oatmeal ointment on top of that. I can hardly believe the overnight difference! I almost never ever write a review but just really wanted to share our story if it may help others. I usually do not buy expensive products like this, but I’m glad I tried- it worked AMAZINGLY for my baby- she is so much more comfortable!!! I’m so thankful!

Great for Dry Skin, Works Fast!
Scent: Fragrance Free, Size: 2 Pack - 3.5 Ounce & 8 Ounce
10/10 would recommend. This is heavy duty lotion, cream, but it works for my baby in 1-2 uses if he has dry skin or a rash. It is worth the cost in my opinion, only want to put on a small amount at a time anyway it is very thick and a little goes a very long way.

It’s expensive for a reason, this stuff works! Even better than the steroids
Scent: Fragrance Free, Size: 2 Pack - 3.5 Ounce & 8 Ounce
It’s expensive for a reason! This stuff works, my 4 mo old has been struggling with eczema for 2 months now and we have been to the ER twice due to infections, I’ve taken everything out of my diet since he’s breastfeeding, we’ve tried every other cream and routine out there. Up until just a few days ago when we ordered Tubby Todd’s his cheeks were constantly raw and weeping. After just 3 days of use with Tubby Todd’s he is finally getting some reprieve and we are finally getting SLEEP (before we would have to hold his hands down manually all night so he wouldn’t itch himself raw) this cream is even better than the steroids, you won’t regret purchasing even at the high price point.

A solid option for managing eczema flare-ups.
Scent: Fragrance Free, Size: 2 Pack - 8 Ounce
Tubby Todd Eczema Ointment is a thick, soothing balm that really helps calm irritated skin. It’s gentle enough for sensitive skin and doesn’t have a strong scent. The texture is a bit heavy, so it takes a little work to rub in, but it stays on well and gives noticeable relief.
