Make some noise with these awesome music crafts! From drums to maracas, there’s a musical craft or activity out there for everyone. We love the idea of adding a music theme to any program. It allows kids to express themselves through sound and rythm. These activities can also be used for auditory sensory stimulation or as an emotional expression for social emotional learning (SEL). Plan a talent show for camp where kids can show off their musical abilities!
Instruments
All of these crafts are fully functional as instruments after decorating!
