Overview
A young child gets a pair of attached bongo drums from the Remo Kids Percussion collection, one pitched high and one pitched low. The shells are Acousticon with a Fabric Rain Forest finish, and the drums are played with bare hands.
Remo built this set for children, and the light Acousticon shells make it easy for small hands to carry and hold. The listing leaves out head diameters and any tuning details, so it suits play and early music classes more than serious lessons.
Who it's for
Home playrooms, preschool music time and family jam sessions are where this drum belongs. Teens and adults learning real bongo technique should look at a full size tunable pair instead.
Pros and cons
- Light enough for a child to carry
- Two pitches, high and low
- Bright Fabric Rain Forest finish
- Acousticon shell from Remo
- Head sizes not listed in specs
- No stand or case included
- Sized for kids, not adult players
Performance notes
Sound comes from striking the two heads by hand, and the pitch gap between the small and large drum creates the call and response of a bongo pattern. The Acousticon shell is light, so volume and depth stay modest. With no tuning described, pitch stays at the factory head tension.

Frequently asked questions
Does the Remo KD-5400-01 bongo need a stand or assembly?
No stand is listed and no extra components come with it. The two drums are attached to each other, so a child plays them on the lap or held between the knees.
Is the Remo kids bongo tunable?
The listing does not mention any tuning hardware, so plan on the heads staying at the tension they ship with.
Is the Remo Kids bongo a toy or a real drum?
It belongs to the Remo Kids Percussion collection, which received Oppenheim Gold Seal Toy Awards. It is a playable hand drum built for children, not a professional bongo.
