In this activity, learners turn an ordinary metal coat-hanger into a (very quiet) musical instrument.

In this is activity about sound and vibration, learners create their own 'flutes' with drinking straws, then investigate how changing the length of the straw affects the sounds that are produced.

With three cans and some tape, make a drum that you bonk down on any surface to produce a variety of sounds. This activity also teaches you about pitch, vibration, and frequency.

Oboes's unique sound originates from the two small reeds a musician blows into. Make your own double reed instrument out of straw!

Discover how sound travels and what materials make better sound conductors. Can you hear better with your fingers in your ears? Find out with a coat hanger and some string!

In this activity, learners create a straw oboe to explore sound and pitch.

In this activity, learners investigate sound wave science, in stereo! Learners construct a "stereo" out of a metal coat hanger and piece of string to explore sound vibrations.
