I'm a 6ft man, and my youngest is an 8 year old girl. My kids are both interested in drumming. I'm a shitty guitar player looking for something to mess around on to help me understand timing and beat patters and stuff better. I tried an electric kit for the kids once, it was an Alesis Debut or something. The bass pedal was absolutely unusable, and the rest was not great either. It soured the kids on electric kits so I worry they won't be excited to see me get another one, even if its way better. Are there any acoustic kit out there that can bridge this enormous gap?

I really love my silentstroke kit, it's not the same as playing a "real" kit, but it feels better than e-drums (IMO). I use it with Zildjian L80 cymbals and it even works for quiet acoustic sessions.
