Krazy for Kazoos!

The 1st graders learned how to play the kazoos this week. They loved them so much, they wanted to take them home with them, so we decided to make our own kazoos to keep.

To make a homemade kazoo you will need:

• 1 empty toilet paper roll or half of a paper towel roll
• a 4"x4" piece of waxed paper
• a rubber band. 

1st: Poke a hole in the toilet paper roll (about 1/3 of the way down) with a pencil. 

2nd: Cover the end of the roll that is closest to the hole with the waxed paper.

3rd: Secure the paper with the rubber band. Make sure that no paper is covering the pencil hole.

4th: Decorate your kazoo with crayons or markers.

To play your kazoo: Hum into the opposite end of the roll. If you are having trouble making a noise, try saying "Who."

You now have your own kazoo!
