The Whipple Museum has a fantastic collection of tuning forks.
Tuning forks not only make a sound, they also are used to keep instruments in tune.
Have a go at making your own instrument, a shaker, with our fun activity.
To make your own shaker you will need:
- Two elastic bands
- A small handful of dried pasta
- The inside of a kitchen roll tube (we painted and dried ours before)
- Two small pieces of paper (10cm x10 cm)
- Stickers to decorate.
Thank you very much to our lovely volunteer Clare for this activity sheet!
