Build a xylophone out of almost anything

In fact, instrument making may actually predate tool making because I'd be willing to bet that ancient man found it more enjoyable making music than digging holes. I have always found xylophones to be some of the funnest of all instruments because of the carefree nature of their sounds. It seems to me that the xylophone lends itself to the idea of building one of your own so I went in search of xylophone ideas and have brought you some of the ones that I find most noteworthy.

You can start by checking out a web page titled: Basic Xylophone Building, by Jim Dobel of Elemental Design. In his web page, Jim gives you a good quick tutorial about what makes a xylophone tick.

Montessori Method: Chapter XIII. Contents | I | II | III | IV | V | VI | VII | VIII | IX | X | XI | XII | XIII | XIV | XV | XVI | XVII | XVIII | XIX | XX | XXI | XXII [Page 185] THE education of the tactile and the thermic senses go together, since the warm bath, and heat in general, render the tactile sense more acute.

Montessori Method: Chapter XIII

Since to exercise the tactile sense it is necessary to touch, bathing the hands in warm water has the additional advantage of teaching the child a principle of cleanliness­that of not touching objects with hands that are not clean. I therefore apply the general notions of practical life, regarding the washing of the hands, care of the nails, to the exercises preparatory to the discrimination of tactile stimuli.

Magnetic MoMA: A Graphic Look at Shape Lab

Photo by Michael Nagle When we first met with the educators from MoMA’s Education Department to discuss the Shape Lab installation, we knew instantly that this project had to be FUN for us, the designers—and that FUN needed to be part of the design for the visitors. Shape Lab is an interactive educational space for families. The educators’ intention for this space is to encourage visitors to interact with the space and explore the different ways artists use shapes in painting and sculpture. DIY Origami Butterfliescritters and crayons. We are re-doing our daughter’s side of the room.

DIY Origami Butterfliescritters and crayons

She loves butterflies. We decided we would make our own ” DIY Origami Butterflies ” to create a sort of migratory pattern where the butterflies started near her brother’s side of the room and finished up by her bed. We got out a bunch of scrapbook paper I’ve held onto now for about 5 years and she picked the colors she wanted them to be. I downloaded a printable tutorial on how to make origami butterflies here. She helped to make a couple by following some simple folds I taught her. And then, I just made butterflies until we had enough to fill her wall. Total cost for the entire project was around $12 for the scrapbook paper, origami paper and thumbtacks we used to affix each butterfly. She’s happy with it!
