The Jumbie Jam is named after a character in Trinidadian folklore; the "Jumbie". This mischievous and playful spirit grabs hold of you, compelling you to do a particular thing. What you are urged to do depends on the type of Jumbie that bites you. You have now been bitten by the Pan Jumbie giving you the "Jumbie to Jam!"
Use the Jumbies for family music making, and play it with other instruments! Jam by the poolside, play it with a worship team, or use them for music therapy and music education! Great for senior citizens as well.
