Game description
This time, it is not really about a game, but rather about crafting a musical instrument. What you need are different chains and quite a bit of bottle caps. If you tie them all together at the end, they make for a great rattle which you can use to make music. You also could make a clamp or both. It all can be used by the children to make music and give the party a new kick. Those crafted instruments are also useful for an environment day at school. You can show other students what you can do with the stuff others throw out. Therefore, why throwing it out if you can make a beautiful instrument instead? With a little imagination, you can even come up with more “instrumental” ideas. Cork and bottle caps are suitable for many different activities. The great thing is, you can get them everywhere, and they do not cost anything.
