Making musical Instruments

Making Jingle bells from bamboo, coloured duct tape, ribbons and beads - ah yes, and bells of course.

Small boy is very happy with his set of jingle bells.

We also created rain sticks using cardboard tubes with nails hammered into them and filled with rice and beans to give different sounds.  The best part was decorating them.

Wrapping paper was cut to size, big enough to wrap around the tube (can you see the nails?), copious amounts of glue applied, and then rolled around the tube.

The ends were sealed shut with some amazing tie dyed duct tape - saves beans and rice flying everywhere.

Decorations were added, and tah dah, one very cool rain stick.
