The Explorers created their own musical instruments in September 2008. The best part is that the instruments barely cost anything at all, and when they wear out it only takes a few minutes to make new ones!

We started with plain old plastic "bendy straws," which when bought in bulk cost less than a penny apiece. The Explorers tried blowing through these straws, and quickly discovered that the effort creates...well, no sound at all, actually. Something is missing.
