| It started off pretty simply...with just a few pans and a recycled bottle of bubble juice. |
 |
| Our fence is metal, so anytime you bang on the pots or chime, there is a nice ringing sound. The plastic bottle is fun to throw over the fence... |
 |
| You can see Chris in the back working out how to get the plastic bottle back to his side of the fence. In the foreground, the gals enjoy making music. |
 |
| Robert bangs on the pan like a drum, making two sounds at once: His hands banging on the pot, and the pot banging against the fence. |
 |
| Later, I added more recycled plastic bottles, each with a different filling: colored rice, beans, small pebbles, sand, and water. |
 |
| Again, while it was fun to shake them, many children enjoyed throwing them over the fence and back. Bonus: when the bottle would hit the fence, it made a satisfying sound! |

I am super inspired by the other ideas for outdoor music play I saw on the blog hop! I've already made plans with my director to put some of them into effect as soon as possible. Check them out for yourself:
Happy playing!
Gina thank you for linking up! I'm so glad you were inspired! There are so many great outdoor music making options! How cool is it that you have a built in musical fence :).
ReplyDeleteim making a music wall for my job and these are really good ideas.
ReplyDeleteThank you, and have fun. Consider having the children help you make some of the instruments. :)
DeleteThank you!
