Hi all,
Hope you’ve been enjoying the sunshine! Just a wee idea from Pamis’s website. Pamis is a Scottish organisation which supports people with profound and multiple learning difficulties and their families. Click on the link above for access to lots more ideas. Hope this finds you all well, remember to post some photos of what you’ve all been up to, it’s lovely to see.
Tips for home-made music makers and instruments –
Raid the kitchen cupboards, pots, pans, cake tins can be hit or swirled inside with spoons (metal or wooden), whisks, other cutlery and utensils to make a variety of sounds . Pots, pans, cake tins with pasta, oats, lentils etc swirled round inside. Grill/cooling racks and cheese graters with spoons swished up and down, fast and slow.
Containers e.g Pringles, hot chocolate, gravy granules, empty water bottles and milk cartons can all become ‘shakers’ filling them with a variety and quantity of materials. To get different sounds you can use gravel, stones, buttons as well as store cupboard ingredients but ensure tops are secured so children aren’t tempted to eat any escaping contents.
I might use some of these ideas on Thursday when we clap for our carers!
