In Little Instrument Makers, kids become both musicians and inventors as they explore the science and art of sound. Each week, students will build real, working instruments—like shakers, tambourines, xylophones, pan flutes, and kazoos—using everyday materials. Then they’ll bring them to life by learning rhythms, composing simple songs, and performing with classmates. Students will: -Learn what rhythm is and how to keep a steady beat -Create and play percussion and wind instruments -Explore how sound works through hands-on building -Compose short musical pieces using their own instruments -Perform original songs and explain their creative process in a final showcase This program blends music, science, and creativity to build foundational skills in rhythm, melody, and performance—no prior experience needed. Note: This is a hands-on, project-based class focused on making and playing music—not formal theory instruction
