Did you know that musical instruments were invented in 2800 BC or earlier? The oldest musical instrument in the world is a Neanderthal flute (I will put an image below this paragraph) Which was made from a bone of a young cave bear and has four holes.
Here is the Neanderthal Flute:
I enjoyed making my musical instruments because I could pretty much make something make noise when I hit them or make noise when I blow on them. I also liked glueing the straws together to make the harmonica.
I found it tricky to make the mugs ding when I hit them. I tried to fill the mugs with more or less water but they did not seem to change. I think that I should have used glass but because I have really young siblings we can't really have glass because if my youngest brother, who is 1, would throw them so we only have plastic glasses. I thought using the ceramic mugs we have would help make a better sound but it didn't work as well as I thought it would.
Thank you for reading my blog, here are my musical instruments:

Do you enjoy playing instruments? I used to play the drums when I was younger and I really enjoyed listening to the beats and rhythms.
