But with a mother-in-law who most definitely is a wind chime person, I figure a child-made chime is sure to go straight to Grandma’s heart. These sport a few distinct advantages: They’re inexpensive, and they test kids’ dexterity. Not to mention they keep the kids busy for awhile. A few favorites from around the web:
Sumac Wind Chimes. Hollow wood is easy to work with and makes a unique sound, and the folks at Natural Kids used it to make their own twist on the garden favorite.
Flower Pot Wind Chimes. Follow up a planting adventure with the kids with this hardy creation from Let’s Explore.
Coffee Can Wind Chime. An old can gains a second life with a CraftZine project that’s easy to make your own. Images via Natural KidsLet’s ExploreCraftzine
