A drum set is like a big instrument made up of different parts that make cool sounds!

First, there are the drums. When you hit a drum with a stick, it goes thump! or boom!. Each drum can make a different sound. For example, a big drum called a bass drum sounds very deep, like a big thump. A smaller drum called a snare drum makes a sharp sound like snap!.

Next, we have the cymbals. When you hit a cymbal, it makes a loud crash!. Sometimes, you can make a softer sound with them, like a ping when you hit them gently.

So, when someone plays a drum set, they can make lots of different sounds like thump, boom, snap, and crash! Each sound is super fun and can help make music!
