This is a simple little activity and a great add to your outdoor music area.
Go for a walk in the forest to find a stick– I love this part – it’s nice to get out for a walk and fun to watch the kids hunt for the ‘perfect stick’. Make sure that it’s thick enough at the top to screw a few hooks in.
Provide the children with sandpaper to sand their stick (if they want a smooth finish).
Screw hooks into one end of the stick.
Tie colourful ribbon, string and jute to the hooks.
Add bells!
Voila! A Music Wand!
(We also use this as a magic circle wand:)

Finally got round to doing the leaf-paint-salad spinner project yesterday – they loved it of course 🙂 Looking forward to doing this one – you have such great ideas! Thanks

How gorgeous! I’m totally going to do this… we have these slick beautiful pieces of driftwood in the garage that are just BEGGING to be used! I just need bells. 🙂
