Music day crafts for kids

Create your own tambourine using a pair of paper plates and some jingle bells. Decorate it as you like!

We will be making some great instruments and learning a bit about the science behind how our ears work this month at our Play Labs. Follow along at home with this do-it-yourself paper plate banjo!

Ready for April showers? For us spring means getting back to playing outdoors. This is very welcomed after months of cold weather in the winter. April can also bring plenty of rainy days indoors too. Today I'm sharing an easy rainy day craft for kids: easy paper plate instruments. You probably have all of the supplies already, so it's a good last minute activity if the kids are stuck inside this spring. Then, if the instruments get too noisy, hope for sunshine so you can send "the band"…
