Do you have a child who wants to make his or her own guitar? You
can build a guitar for the kids to play with on a rainy day with
just a few simple materials.
Kids truly love playing with these, and they enjoy decorating
the boxes just as much. These are a great idea if you take care
of a lot of children, or babysit because the kids will stay
occupied.
Just throw some newspaper on the table and let them be creative
with the paint, markers and glue. Here's what you need:
* A shoe box * Seven or Eight Rubber bands * Some Paint * Markers
First, take the top from the shoe box, and allow the kids to
paint the box in whatever colors they want. After you let the
shoebox dry, you will build a guitar by placing the rubber bands
around the shoebox.
You want to place them around the smaller width of the box. You
should place them all the same width away from each other.
To allow the kids to further build a guitar that they will love,
you can let them glue on sparkly accessories, a length of string
so they can place the guitar around their neck, or any kind of
other decorations they want.
A great idea if you have more than one kid is to make them some
other instruments, like homemade maracas, or drums. They will
love having a band, or just playing one instrument, and you will
love the fact that they're occupied!
If you don't like this method, you can get more options at
You don't have to be a great guitar player to enjoy all the fun
of playing. Sometimes you just need to go with it and have a
good time no matter what you sound like.
