Recycled Materials - Pretend Play Microphone

TO MAKE YOUR OWN MICROPHONE:

  1. All it is a large clean paper towel roll, cut down a bit with scissors and then I hot-glued a tin foil wrapped styrofoam ball one end.
  2. Then I covered the paper roll with gray cardstock {for a nicer look} and we had a microphone within minutes!
  3. The last step was the drawn on “buttons” on one side, with a Sharpie marker.
  4. BAM – five minutes of entertainment and the future lead singer of a band!
  5. Although I didn’t get much silence after making it and handing it over {I should have known this!} it was worth creating, since his imagination is going wild with his new instrument.
  6. Hopefully you are inspired to make it too! Don’t forget that old coffee cans make for awesome drums too and rubber bands on an empty Kleenex box is a great guitar too!
