Bowl Tambourine Craft

From Sherri Osborn, former About.com Guide

Nechama explains how she made noise makers using bowls and a few other supplies. Invite all of your friends over to make one and then form a marching band.

• Age Guideline: 5 Years and Up
• Time Required: 30 minutes (Does not include drying time)

The above age and time guidelines are estimates. This project can be modified to suit other ages and may take more or less time depending on your circumstances.

Materials Needed:

• Paper or Plastic Bowl
• Jingle Bells
• Chenille Stems
• Hole Puncher
• Misc. items to Decorate

Instructions:
Using a hole puncher, make holes around the edge of the bowl (this is easier with a paper bowl). Thread the chenille stems up and down through the holes, attaching the jingle bells as you go. Twist the ends of the chenille stems together.

Once you have your tambourine together, decorate it however you like. Decorate the rest of the bowl using glitter, markers, sequins, stickers etc.
