Tin Can Drum!

08:32 Natalie Karine 0 Comments

Music! Everyone loves music... especially kids. So here's a fun little project: drums! The kids at school lost their minds and couldn't put them down! We even added lentils inside so that they could double as shakers! So fun!

What you'll need:
     ♫ Tin can
     ♫ Canvas or fabric
     ♫ Yarn
     ♫ Construction paper
     ♫ Crayons
     ♫ Scissors
     ♫ Glue
     ♫ Hot glue gun

Instructions: ① Cut a strip of paper that is the the height of the can and that is big enough to  wrap around it. ② Draw and Decorate. ③ Glue in place. ④ Cut a square of canvas that can cover the top (you draw on it if you like!). ⑤ Throw a couple lentils (or rice or beans) in the can. ⑥ Hot glue the canvas to the top of the can, trying to stretch it as much as you can. ⑦ Wrap some yarn around it and voilà! Time for a concert!

All shapes and sizes... Awesome!
