Congas – $599 If you’re looking for a fun gift for a percussionist, but can’t have a full set of drums in the living room, these congas are a fun instrument for young and old. They can even be played in an apartment if you use a Tala Wand (a type of birch or bamboo drum stick) without losing your lease. |

A couple of pair of bongos – $25.99 If dad loves music and likes to party, buy 2-3 pairs of bongos and break them out when guests come over. You don’t have to be an expert to play the bongos and it’s easy for a party to get swinging when several people are playing at once. |
