Wind Pipe Instrument

Children love to play instruments and there are many you can make at home. 


This is a simple wind pipe that children can make in just a few minutes. 


With the straws we had there was an opportunity to discuss patterns and order


Simply lay out a line of sticky take with the sticky part facing UP. 
Lay each of the straws on the sticky tape. 


Fasten the straws with the tape. 


Cut one end of the straws on a diagonal. 
This will give the straws various lengths.  


And there you have your wind pipe instrument. 

Children can clearly hear their breath change as it passes through each straw.
