Homemade Music / Noisemaker Kit

My kids love music. Whether it is singing it, playing it , or dancing to it, they love it all. They particularly enjoy pulling out my pots and pans and chopsticks and making music with them. So one day I thought of making a little music kit that we could easily pull out and use anytime.

I wanted to keep it simple by using stuff that I already had laying around the house, but at the same time still make it fun. Here's what I came up with:

- Egg shakers, M&M tub shaker, vitamin bottle shaker, milk jug shaker
- Egg shaker maracas
- Ribbon spool twist drum
- Baby snack tub drum with pompom drum sticks
- Baby food jar lid cymbals
- Baby wipe guitar
- Aluminum tray guitar
- Toilet paper tube microphone
- Bell bracelet / anklet

I happened to already have all the stuff lying around the house, including empty Easter eggs from this past Easter, but if you don't have any, the great news is that you can buy plastic Easter eggs online all year round.

I even found an empty cheese ball container to store all the little instruments in our music kit. Gotta love it when you can repurpose things around the house and use it for something else :)

My kids absolutely love these, and they are always so excited when I pull them out.
This will also be so perfect for FHE, nursery/primary lessons or singing time.
