🌧️ 🌈Let’s Make some DIY Rainsticks 💧🌈

🎶 In honor of World Children’s Music Day, Max and I got creative and made our own rainstick! 🌧️✨ He loved hammering in the nails (with help, of course 😉) and had the best time painting and decorating it. We actually discovered you can make musical instruments out of almost anything at home — we also turned empty cans into xylophone and even made a drum from a bowl covered in vinyl and tape. It’s such a fun way to play with sound, get messy with paint, and turn it all into an art project.

DIY Rainstick How-To:
	•	Start with a poster tube (or paper towel / gift wrap tube — anything sturdy works)
	•	Hammer in small nails first — we did bands of nails and then added a few random ones for extra sound
	•	Wrap masking tape around the outside to lock nails safely in place
	•	Pour in just a little rice or beans (less is more for that gentle rain sound)
	•	Tape the ends closed and paint & decorate however you like 🎨🎶

🌟 Quick tip: The more nails you add, the longer and softer the rain sound will be. Tilt it slowly and enjoy the magic!

📺 Also stay tuned starting tomorrow. You might see some of these fun DIY musical instruments that Max and I made on TV stations all over the country in collaboration with cocomelon ft Ms Appleberry 🍉
