Beat out a trash-can rhythm, bang on a water-cooler bass drum or blast a tune from a rubber-hose bugle! This Jumbo Book has instructions on how to make and play instruments from all over the world. From creating a thumb piano to playing a didgeridoo, the activities in the book are fun and easy. Kids learn about different musical styles and make music on their own or together without needing technical musical knowledge. Kids can - play music from around the world- make over 50 unique instruments- compose their own songs- create a One Kid Band- experiment with beats and harmonies- try a cappella and cool body jive- throw an African rhythm party A companion CD is also available.
