Rainbow xylophone tutorial: how to make a homemade xylophone for kids out of recycled materials
This week, we have been exploring the mathematics of music with a homemade PVC pipe xylophone! This was one of those projects that sort of evolved. The boys have been enjoying blowing into PVC pipe and making all kinds of crazy noises. They have noticed that longer pipes make a lower noise than shorter pipes. […]
Our sheet music is not for a specific xylophone, but it is universal and suitable for most 8-25 note xylophones. This book is aimed at those new to music and musical instruments, whether child or adult. It allows for simple and easy learning that requires no previous knowledge of reading music. The letter notation makes it possible for you or your kids to confidently begin playing. Our other books make it easy to play the xylophone with colored circle/letter notation. This book, however, includes classic note symbols so that students can begin to learn the reading of musical notes, including a musical notation showing note length, connection, etc. Most songs in this sheet music book can be played within one octave on the xylophone using only 8 notes. Several songs need 1.5 or 2 octaves or a 10-15note xylophone. This percussion instrument develops not only a musical ear, but also gross and fine motor skills, and cognitive skills such as letter recognition, matching, and patterns. Attention: Songs have been transposed for a DIATONIC range. Some melodies might be changed and simplified. If you have flat keys on your instrument, please use the classic music score for the piano. List of songs adapted for xylophone: Part 1 Skip, Skip, Skip to My Lou Humpty Dumpty My Hat I like to Eat (Apples and Bananas) Cobbler, Mend My Shoe Lost My Gold Ring This Old Man Baby Bumble Bee The Bear Went Over the Mountain Cherry Blossom Ring Around the Rosie Rain, Rain, Go Away A Ram Sam Sam Little Jack Horner It's Raining Au Clair de la Lune Debka Hora My Bonnie House of the Rising Sun Part 2 Understand the importance of musical notation. 3 variants of the ancient French melody Ah! vous dirai-je, maman.

Make your own homemade musical instrument with this easy wayter xylophone. This is the easiest instrument you can make with kids. Make it rainbow, too!
This little invention has been a hit with kids as well as teachers. I first created a Bop-o-phone out of desperation for additional xylos. The frame/box costs basically nothing, and it adds some versatility to a set of Boomwhackers. Here are easy instructions and pictures. Please post additional ideas or feedback. Enjoy! Materials needed: an empty, sturdy box that contained a case of 8.5" x 11" copy paper (usually easy to find in the faculty workroom), wide tape, a meter stick, a marker, sturdy scissors, and a about six feet of yarn or soft string. For each mallet, you will need a pencil or 10" length of 1/4" diameter dowel, a small rubber ball (party favor or from 25 cent vending machine), and glue. Step #1 (1) Begin 2 cm from the left side of the box and mark along the top edge 4 cm wide by 1 cm deep arcs, 1 cm apart. Repeat markings on opposite edge. Cut out the arcs. (Cutting from each side and meeting in the middle will give cleaner results.) Step 2 (2) Gently pull the glued seams on one side of the box apart and lay the end flap flat. Mark a line through the center of the bottom of the box from the open edge to 7" from the opposite side. Then mark a "V", extending from the center line to each corner of the box. Cut along these lines. Step #3 (3) Fold the bottom sections over each other with the "V" on top (inside), narrowing the width of the open end of the box to about 8". Then fold the end flaps up, trim/square them up, and tape your seams. (4) Place Boomwhackers in the 'cradles' in diatonic order. (You can leave some off for pentatonic activities). Tie two lengths of yarn around the box and tubes lengthwise as shown in the top picture. Tape yarn in place on bottom of box to keep it from sliding around. The yarn will keep tubes in place, and it doesn't really inhibit tone. (5) Make a mallet by carving/drilling a hole in a rubber ball, applying glue to in the hole and on the end of the dowel or pencil, and inserting the stick into the ball. (Soft rubber balls actually sound better than hard ones.) You can use the Bop-o-phone as an Orff-type instrument for ostinatos or as a melody instrument. It's very easy to convert Boomwhackers to and from this mallet format. Here's a link to my digital song collection of color-coded melodies (with ostinato suggestions), which you might find very useful and versatile: http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/The-BIG-BOOK-of-FOLK-SONG-FUN-for-Bells-or-Boomwhackers-466033
