straw
Any project that annoys your parents HAS to be good
The Explorers kicked off the 2010-2011 school year by making super-cheap musical instruments out of straws.

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.
