Rainbow Music Shakers

Empty plastic bottles are everywhere and waiting to be re-used into this fun project. Emma at My Little 3... and Me shows us how to make these stylish musical shakers. You will need pom-poms, white rice, coloured ribbons to create one of your own.

The shekere is an instrument from West Africa
made from a dried gourd. 
It has a net covering the gourd which is woven with beads. Above is the idea transformed and made by children at Play Ideas. Learn how to make one there.
