There are many activities you can try at home to teach your child some basic musical skills (whilst entertaining them at the same time!)
Give your child a wooden spoon and show them how hitting it (gently!) on various different surfaces around the house makes different sounds. Try a bowl, an empty can, a radiator and a saucepan. Try filling up a saucepan and show them how the sound changes.
Fill up some cans (be sure to cover any sharp edges with a healthy layer of tape!) with a selection of different ingredients - pennies, uncooked rice, salt, buttons, beans etc. You can now play some of your child's favorite music and shake along!
Take an empty tissue box and stretch rubber bands over the hole. Show your child how tight bands make higher pitched sounds than loose bands.
