Making Key Chimes ~ Kids Craft

This is a fun and easy project for the littles! 

Not to mention inexpensive :)

We've been enjoying a late Fall here with temps still in the 70's.

Making the most of spending time outside while we can.

Sticks are always a magnet with little ones aren't they?

We decided to do something useful with them

After each choosing the "perfect" stick they were brought in

The painting began

Each had to be the perfect color ;)

Some pretty unique colors came out in mixing and creating 

While the sticks dried, they painted the keys.

 I tied the strings onto the sticks for them

Added a drop of Super Glue to each knot

Let everything dry thoroughly

They keys were added to the bottom of the strings

Each string received a beautifully colored key

Here they are in all their glory!

The littles were so excited to hear them tinkle in the breeze!
