How do you make an egg shaker?

Here's how to make a simple egg shaker, perfect for little ones or for a musical project:

Materials:

* Empty plastic eggs: You can find these in most grocery stores.

* Dried beans or rice: These will be your shaker sound.

* Tape: Masking tape or duct tape will work.

Instructions:

1. Clean your eggs: Wash the egg shells and dry them thoroughly.

2. Fill with beans or rice: Pour the beans or rice into one half of the egg shell. You can adjust the amount to control the sound.

3. Seal the egg: Carefully place the other half of the egg shell on top and tape securely around the edges.

4. Decorate (optional): You can decorate your egg shaker with markers, paint, stickers, or glitter to make it more fun!

Tips:

* For a louder sound, use more beans or rice.

* For a softer sound, use less filling.

* You can use different fillings to experiment with different sounds (e.g., sand, pebbles).

* Be sure to tape securely so the filling doesn't leak out.

Have fun shaking!
