Just 2 sticks and a bit of plastic makes this fun toy. It's not the most tuneful of musical instruments. In fact it only plays one squeaky little note, but for youngish children it's a lot of fun.

Supplies:
3 wooden lolly/Popsicle sticks
2 small hair elastics or loom bands
small piece of cellophane
scissors
Optional sticky backed decorations
Steps:
Snip a little off the end of one of the sticks.
It will probably splinter into smaller pieces, but that's OK.
Take a small piece of cellophane packaging and cut it to fit the length of a stick.
Lay it on top of one of the sticks.

Place a piece of the splintered wood on top of the cellophane at each end.
Lay the last wooden stick on top.
Secure each end with an elastic band.
Decorate with sticky back jewels if you like.
Put it to your mouth and blow through the gap between the sticks. The cellophane will vibrate and make a noise
