Tin Can Telephones

Have secret conversations through the tin cans! The sound runs from one tin can, down the string and out through the other.

The Water Gongs

Hit the targets with the beaters and see what happens to the water. Will the sound make little ripples or big splashes? It depends how hard you hit it!

Victorian Bath

 It might not look like it but this is an old metal bath and we’ve upcycled it to make it into a really great sounding drum. You can make lots of different sounds, playing the top and sides of the bath.

Broom Stomp

The broom stomps come in two sizes, big and baby! We’ve upcycled a broom, attached some bells and a metal plate to it and fastened it to a wellie boot so you can be your own drum kit!

Bucket and Suitcase Drumkit

Our bucket drum is exactly what it says on the tin…. a bucket that we turned into a drum! Paired with a suitcase bass drum it’s a particular favourite for little ones as it’s just the right size.
