How to use waste to make a musical instrument with five standard tones

Preparation materials: old bucket (you can also use old pots, bowls or vases), balloons, tape, sticks (you can use chopsticks, pencils, or other slender items), scissors.

1. Take out the balloon and cut off the blow-up end with scissors.

2. Use one hand to secure the balloon to one end of the drum base, while the other hand stretches the balloon to the other side of the drum base. Let the balloon cover the opening of the bucket that serves as the drum seat (you can also use an old pot, bowl, or vase for the drum seat).

3. Once the balloon is laid on the drum seat, use weight-bearing tape to secure the balloon around the perimeter of the drum seat.

4, fixed after the balloon drum is ready, you can use a wooden stick to play the drum, you can also use chopsticks, pencils or other long thin objects to play the drum.
