"Quick! Call Flammie!"

December 10, 2006 7:39 PM

I'd like to get my son a "Flammie Drum". Where can I find one?

Recently, my 5-year-old and I have been playing Secret of Mana together on my SNES. He loves Flammie and he imagines that his toys are dragons, and he goes on pretend adventures. I want to get him a drum like the Flammie Drum (it's one where you twist the handle back and forth and the two bead-things bang on it at the same time) - but I don't know what this kind of drum is called, or where to find one. Help?

I *think* it's called a 'Stick Drum'.

Here is one, only $10.00 - hand-made...

Woa - hey, I can pick one up at 10,000 Villages right here in Calgary - neato.

I bought one of these for my niece earlier this year. According to Earthshaking Music, it's called a monkey drum on a stick.

The Japanese name for it is den-den daiko. I'm not having much luck finding places to buy it online though.
Though I did find this.
