These are so fun! My husband and I are in our 20's and still love to make these as if we were 6!

The first link is a real easy one, but you can get more creative with the supplies, like some of the real "artsy" ones in the second link.

I would love to hear about it if any of you do this prject with your kids! Be sure and post pictures too! I'm working on getting some up too Ü

Yeah, I think this would be a really cool little project to do with children in a classroom - more children need to be introduced to playing music early in life! Hope it's fun Ü

Hi Magdelina:
I love the thumb piano project. I teach music in lower elementary schools. I think I'll do this project for the lower grades. How cute! Thanks for posting this.
