The rattle-drum is very popular in China.

Chinese kids are all familiar with the rattle-drum, one of the oldest and most traditional toys in China.

 

It is a small double-sided drum with a handle and two wooden balls hanging from a string.

 

When rolled in your hands, the balls on both sides will beat the drum, sending out a rattling sound.
