Selecting The Right Size Junior Drum Set for Your Child
If you are shopping for your child's first drum set, you might have found that a junior drum set is the right choice. The junior drum sets and other starter drum sets on the market today offer parents the opportunity to provide their kids a quality drum kit at a much lower cost than a full drum set. This also allows your child time to ensure they like drumming before you purchase a high priced drum kit that is going to only go unused. This is also a wise strategy for beginning drummers and teens.
But once you decide on a junior set, there are still decisions to make, including the size and configuration of your child's first drum set. When shopping for a starter drum set, you'll mainly find two configurations: 3-piece junior drum sets and 5-piece junior drum sets. Both are very popular and likely excellent for your child, but how do you choose?
First, let's discuss the difference between a 3-piece junior drum set and 5-piece set (there is such a thing as a 4-piece set, but they are less common). A 3-piece set refers to the main 3 pieces of the drum set: base drum, snare drum, and single tom-tom drum. A 5-piece drum set includes two additional drums: a second mounted tom-tom drum and a floor tom-tom drum.
Either drum configuration is fine for your child, as the 3-piece and 5-piece configurations mirror the same configurations of many full size drum sets. Many experienced drummers play on full sized sets that have the same configuration as described for the 3-piece and 5-piece set. Once you get into full size drum sets, there are many more drum set configurations and drummers tend to customize their sets even more by adding specific drums to their liking.
The best advantages of a 3-piece junior drum set for your child is that it will be smaller and simpler to play and learn on. Less drums usually means less number of drum fills to master and the more rapidly they'll become comfortable playing on their drum set. These 3-piece sets are also generally cheaper than 5-piece sets.
The advantage of a 5-piece junior drum set is that it is closer to the configuration of a majority of full drum sets. The 5-piece configuration is the closest thing to a standard in drum kit configurations, so getting your child a 5-piece junior drum set means they'll be practicing on something closer to an actual set, and also a set they'll likely not grow out of quickly. It will probably cost more, take up more space, and be a little more advanced to learn on.
Choosing between a 3-piece set and 5-piece set shouldn't be a big deal when choosing a junior drum set. Both are good choices and make great sense for your child, and most experts would recommend you let your drummer choose, and your pocket book as well.

What pieces are in a respectable drum set?
Say I wanted to have all the instruments necessary to support a band...
but I don't own or know anything about drums.... and I needed a drum set...
What would I need to have in a drum set so it doesn't look tiny and cheap, but not massive
The very basic set has these components:
5 drums:
- snare (w/ stand)
- bass (w/ pedal)
- 2 mountable toms of different sizes
- floor tom
3 cymbals:
- crash (w/ stand)
- ride (w/ stand)
- hi-hat (with stand/pedal)
Drum throne
That's the "basic" set.
