This weekend I went home and got to spend some time with my Parents, Brother and his family. My little niece Jessie is three and we collaborated on making some fun homemade instruments. We took some paper plates, took some rubber bands. She provided the nice decorating and I made my own instrument and until she discovered a much cooler toy (the Barbie Mobile) we had maybe ten seconds of music making. Lots of fun. I highly recommend making your own musical instruments. Sometimes you gotta dance to the beat of your own drum.Nov 27, 2009

Awesome idea. Homemade music makers are the best.
Fantastic. Children can give the most amazing inspiration, if one is willing to tolerate their short attention span! I should try to make instruments with my nieces and nephew.
