This is DMs bag and it’s full of boomwhackers. For anyone who’s not come across these amazing musical instruments, I urge you to investigate them. They’re fab.

OK – the truth is that I’d never heard of them until I did my teacher training and even now the only two places I’ve seen them are the University’s music room and one of the schools where I did my placement had them too. That makes me doubly sure that they are one of life’s largely undiscovered joys. What’s best about them is that anyone can have fun with them and can make a tune – they’re music for the masses in the nicest of ways.

Don’t take it from me – take a look at this… or this….

(Sorry – I know how addictive youtube is – I have been lost for hours on it before now!)
