Claves and carnival

This week we were very busy getting ready for our carnival! At forest school we made our own musical instruments to use during the parade. We had to cut the wood and whittle it to make claves.

The sticks we used this weeks had to be thicker than normal.

We notice that it helps if we use our weight to hold the stick down and stopping it from moving.

We also had to whittle our stick.

We used the claves to make some noise during the parade!
