For Carnival we make music with homemade instruments. That's fun! You actually have everything at home, colored or gift paper, empty rolls and glue. For the sound you can use anything you have at home, dried peas and beans; rice; macaroni; sunflower seeds or bird seed but also beads :))) The monsters have a lot of fun with it!
How to make Carnival shakers
Draw circles on paper and then cut them out.
Make little cuts all around the circle.
Brush glue an a roll and stick on the circle.
Fill the roll with some rice and cut out another circle.
Stick the second circle on the roll.
Stick fun coloured paper around the roll.
Make another roll this time fill with beans.
Make a longer shaker as well.
In exactly the same way.
Allow the glue to dry completely.
Make as many as you like.
We allow the last shaker to dry well too.
Bear is totally up for it, have lots of fun on Carnival Bear!
