Thursday August 27th / Making Music Bags
Toddler and Preschooler


Make your own maracas.
You need:
Brown paper lunch bags
Small objects
beans and rice
small wiffle balls
use your imagination
markers
twist tie, tape, or hair binder

1. Take out paper bags and decorate them as fancy as you like
2. Walk around and find things to fill them with. I gave each kids two bags.
Preschooler: wanted to fill them with small balls
Toddler: filled one with littlest pet shop accessories
me: rice and beans
Anything will work
3. Fill bags, not very full
4. Twist tie teh bag shut
5. Shake bags
6. Sing a song, march along, be silly with your musical instruments

7. Shake bags one at a time. DO they sound the SAME or DIFFERENT??
Which one do you like best?
