AFRO-CARIBBEAN DRUMMING is a 100% participatory activity. Kids and educators play a diversity of joyous music on curious, Afro-Caribbean drums and hand-percussion instruments. They take away incentive and skills to drum along with Afro-Caribbean songs and dances in school, at home, on-line, and in their community. Participatory music builds confidence, self-regulation, empathy, and teamwork. It instills an eagerness to learn new skills.
