Bring joyful rhythm into your home with the Zizipan, a traditional-style tambourine inspired by the vibrant sounds of Haitian street celebrations and festive gatherings.
Each Zizipan is 6 inches wide, crafted with a round wooden base and natural goat skin top, featuring a small side hole for authentic Haitian play technique. Individually handcrafted and hand-painted, no two instruments are alike — each carries the unique touch of the artisan who made it. Goat skin is sensitive, and should ONLY be played with your hands.

Goat skin is more delicate than cow hide, and should only be played with hands. Please instruct children to only play instruments they way they were meant to be played or they'll risk damaging them.
