CAN DRUMS!

Gather a bunch of tin cans. Make sure that the cans are CLEAN and DRY. Also check to make sure that there are no sharp edges.

You can also wrap rubber bands around the cans or tape them together to make a drum set.

Your Can Drums will make the best sound if they are put on something soft, like a rug or a sweatshirt.

You can use pencils or chopsticks for your drumsticks. Pencils are best because they have two sides - hard wood and soft eraser.
