The outflow of cash in support of our kid's development continues unabated. Our little boy is getting drum lessons so I picked a used kit up on the weekend for him to practice on.

However, the concrete and tiles of his room makes a very unwanted echo chamber/noise multiplier!

Does anyone know where I can get those little pads that go over the surface of the drums to deaden the noise? It is a kid size rather than adult drum kit.

Cheers

Like these? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/like/151712222610?lpid=1...

Vic firth have better quality stuff though.

Curtains and a heavy rug (stop the kit moving) will help.

ETA a set of musicians ear plugs wouldn't go amiss in this situation.
