Make Some Fun Musical Instruments

CHIMES

ruler or stick
washers
nail polish
string
metal mixing spoon
fishing line filament

Hang the washers from the ruler or stick with pieces of string by wrapping the string around the ruler or stick and securing. Strike the washers with the mixing spoon to play. And if possible, hang the stick using two hooks and some fishing line.

Note: You can make this craft colorful by painting the washers first with different color nail polishes, such as blue,red, gold, etc. Parents please supervise this part of the activity.

Matracas

Use two wooden blocks of the same size. Attach sandpaper to one side of each block with glue or tacks. Children can rub the blocks together in time with the music.
